The Mentalist

Teresa Lisbon:
So, what's your report gonna say?

J.J. LaRoche:
It will say that agent Risgby acted appropriately and with sound judgment when he used lethal force against Moss. Good work. You got away with it.

Patrick Jane:
Me?

J.J. LaRoche:
Well I can't make a case, but you chose a remote location for the meeting, you set up a situation in where Moss had to flee. And there, by chance, was Risgby.

Patrick Jane:
Well, I'm flattered. You flatter me, but I can't take credit for that.

Teresa Lisbon:
Moss didn't have to run, I would have brought him in.

J.J. LaRoche:
The plan did require Moss to put his own head in the noose. Small gamble Jane had to make to keep everyone's hands clean.

Teresa Lisbon:
Moss fired his gun!

J.J. LaRoche:
So you all say. And, of course, Moss can't tell his version. And now Rigsby has taken perfectly legal revenge against the man who killed his father. You think it will effect him?

Patrick Jane:
Well I think it's better to regret something you did than something you didn't do.
