Burn Notice2007

[as Fiona drills the safe, Madeline walks over to Jesse]

Madeline Westen:
Hey. Doing any better?

Jesse Porter:
Uh, not really, no. Marv and I were pretty close, you know? Just can't shake the feeling that I made a mistake not calling his family.

Madeline Westen:
Well.

Madeline Westen:
[clears throat] You can let yourself off the hook, 'cause, um... I did it fo you.

Jesse Porter:
What are you talking about?

Madeline Westen:
I got Marv's number off your phone, and I called his house. His daughter, Emily, picked up. I couldn't say much, but I told her that her dad had died a hero.

Jesse Porter:
Wow. Maddy, I - Thank you.

Madeline Westen:
You're welcome. But I didn't do it fo you. If I've learned anything from watching you and my son, it's if one little lie helps a family sleep easy at night, then... well, I say that's not such a bad thing. Right?
