The Mentalist, Season 5

Minelli:
Yes.

Alexa Schultz:
Virgil Minelli?

Minelli:
Yes, who's this?

Alexa Schultz:
Alexa Schultz, FBI. We met at the forensics conference in Roanoke.

Minelli:
Director Schultz. What a pleasure to hear from you.

Alexa Schultz:
I understand the CBI has hired a new consultant, a man named Patrick Jane?

Minelli:
Yes. I'm surprised you know, I didn't realise you followed our hiring that closely.

Alexa Schultz:
Mister Jane is connected to a case we're interested in. The serial killer known as Red John. I'm, ehm, calling to ask a favour.

Minelli:
What's that?

Alexa Schultz:
I would appreciate updates on the Red John case. That way when my boss asks me what's going on, I have something to tell him.

Minelli:
To put it bluntly Alexa, why would I do that? What's in it for me?

Alexa Schultz:
Well it's useful to have a friend in the FBI, isn't it? And I'm a good friend.

Minelli:
Well, I'm a great believer in interagencies cooperation. I don't see why we couldn't engage in some.

Alexa Schultz:
I look forward to it, Virgil. Oh, by the way, one thing we might wanna know about Patrick Jane. You know how he's been out of sight in the past year? You know where he's been?

Minelli:
No.

Alexa Schultz:
In an insane asylum. Good luck... Done.

Kirkland:
Thank you.
