The Mentalist Quotes


  • Chief Donner (about Jane whose leaning down, smelling the body of the victim): "Is he sniffing her?"
  • Lisbon: "Yes."
  • Chief Donner: "You pay him to sniff people?"

  • Jane (sniffing Chief Donner): "Cheap soap, unironed shirts, stomach pains, recent loss of weight. I'm gonna take a wild guess here. Your angry and unhappy because your living in a motel because your wife found out about the woman your having an affair with, that you don't even care for. You're a seething mass of self-loathing and understandably so. "
  • Chief Donner (reaching for Jane): "You son of a *****."
  • Jane hightails it and runs away before the Chief can touch him.....

  • Lisbon (to Jane): "I swear sometimes I think you need medication. It's like you got ADD or something."
  • Jane: "Well (A), I'm not so sure ADD even exists and (B) I was winding her (Mayor Melba Shannon) up for a reason.

  • (Cho's interview for the TV documentary....)
  • Cho: "Why am I a detective? Why are you a reporter?"
  • Mike: "What?"
  • Cho: Why are you making this documentary?"
  • Mike: "It's a fresh perspective on law enforcement."
  • Cho: Nah, I mean what's in it for you?"
  • Mike: Uh, scoring this exclusive is a good way to get noticed."
  • Cho: So your ambitious. How long you been doing the news here?"
  • Mike: "About 8 years."
  • Cho: "Anchor?"
  • Mike: "Mostly field work."
  • Cho: "So, you're ambitious but you haven't gotten very far?"(Rigsby laughs behind his computer screen. The cameraman, Steve, laughs behind the camera.)
  • Mike: "I guess that's about it, yeah. You don't like being asked questions. The team as a whole seems to have a problem with that."
  • Cho: "Is that a question?"
  • (PR woman, Brenda, sends Mike and Steve off for coffee and food then bends down at Cho's desk.)
  • Brenda: "Agent Cho, it is the specific request of the Deputy AG that your unit cooperate fully with the media."
  • Cho: "What's your point?"

  • Mayor Shannon (to Lisbon about Jane): "Are all CBI Agents this incompetent? Have you even bothered to check her lover as a suspect?"
  • Jane: "First you say it was Jasper, now it's the lover that did it. Are you going to make up your mind?

  • Jane takes Mike and Steve out for a taco. A van pulls up and they grab Jane and take off with him.
  • Mike (to Steve): "Get that, yeah?"
  • Cameraman Steve holds up his taco, showing he doesn't have his camera.

  • Jane (to Jasper who has just kidnapped him to send a message of his innocence): "I see you mean business. There's no need for firearms, I'm not Harry Houdini."
