It is around six at night. The team has gone home, except Teresa Lisbon. She is sitting in her office, staring at her phone. She and Patrick Jane had gotten into a terrible fight during the case. He was only joking but she wasn't having any of it. When it got fatally serious to Jane, Lisbon had tried to diffuse the situation. This only resulted in the two of them stridently arguing. This grounded Lisbon crying and sending Jane away. He had disappeared around eleven a.m. In her haste, she had assigned Cho to stakeout – because he knew what Jane was originally planning and said nothing to his boss. According to Cho, Jane only wanted to mess with Lisbon a little to ease into asking her to dinner. Lisbon refuses to take Cho off this position unless he can contact Jane. No one is having any luck.
He is at one of the people of interest's houses. Just outside, across the street and beside the dumpsters. He fiddles with his phone. Grace is at the movie theater, alone. As in, everyone went to earlier shows so now it is only her and a scruffy man angrily shouting in Russian at the screen. She constantly glances back to her phone. Summer is at her neighbor's brother's step-son's ballet performance. She is all the way in the back and keeps looking at her phone. Rigsby is at a bar, tired that, for the umpteenth time, he struck out with Van Pelt. He is drowning his sorrows and stupidity in scotch and vodka.
9p [T: Lisbon(L); F: Cho(C)] C'mon, Boss. There's plenty other angles.
[T: Cho; F: Lisbon] No. Thank Jane.
[T: Lisbon; F: Cho] It's not like he meant it.
[T: Cho; F: Lisbon ] Right. Just being Jane, huh?
Grace finally realizes she is far more engulfed in Russian curses than the movie itself. She scrolls down her phonebook and decides to text Summer, knowing Cho is still on stakeout, probably reading a book or talking to Lisbon.
9:15p [T: Summer(S); F: Grace(G)] Hey, Summer. You hear about our last case?
[T: Grace; F: Summer] Kimball told me. So, it's the truth?
[T: Summer; F: Grace] The kidnapping was staged.
[T: Grace; F: Summer] And the only person he told was my Kimball?
[T: Summer; F: Grace] That sums it up.
[T: Grace; F: Summer] Not even Teresa?
[T: Summer; F: Grace] He said nothing to Boss. Biggest mistake ever.
[T: Grace; F: Summer] No kidding.
[T: Cho; F: Grace] Another thing: U think Rigsby was crushing on me in the parking lot?
[T: Grace; F: Cho] Yes, he was.
[T: Cho; F: Grace] OMG! Meant to send to Summer! Sorry, Cho!
[T: Grace; F: Cho] LOL, was talking to Lisbon.
[T: C, L, S, Rigsby (R), Jane(J); F: Grace] K. Think I fixed it. Is Boss still mad Jane?
[T: Grace; F: Cho] Probably.
[T: Grace; F: Summer] IDK. Did u mean to txt me that time?
[T: Grace; F: Lisbon] Yes I am. Careful who u send those to.
[T: Grace; F: Jane] I'm sure she is. I'm giving her time to cool off. Y text me?
[T: C, L, S, R, J; F: Grace] Dam nu phone! Anyone no how 2 turn off chain?
[T: Grace; F: Cho] Don't hav the function.
[T: Grace; F: Summer] Sorry: Tracfone.
[T: Grace; F: Lisbon] Mine does that too. Im not even sure HOW it DOES that sometimes. Sorry.
[T: Grace; F: Jane] Settings, Bluetooth, Text, Wi-fi, Zone, Link.
[T: Jane; F: Grace] It worked! Where hav u been?
Grace stares blankly at her phone for several minutes. He was there and now he isn't. She sighs and settles back into the movie. It is very boring. She yawns and focuses on the Russian man.
10p [T: G, C, J, L; F: Rigsby] WAZ VRY U PURTY NDAY.
[T: Rigsby; F: Grace] Thank you? R u drunk!?
[T: Rigsby; F: Cho] Purty nday? Drunk much?
[T: Rigsby; F: Jane] Ur drunk leave that bar.
[T: Rigsby; F: Jane] Ur drunk go to bed.
At the bar, Rigsby laughs at the flashing lights and hits a speed dial button before passing out, falling off the barstool.
Jane is pacing in "his" attic. He groans and collapses onto his bed. He reaches over to the table and grabs his phone. He slips the battery back in and begins to text.
10:15p [T: Cho; F: Jane] U Awake?
[T: Jane; F: Cho] Yes.
[T: Cho; F: Jane] Hows Lisbon?
[T: Jane; F: Cho] IDK
[T: Cho; F: Jane] Liar. Ur on stakeout n she n the office. U 2 been txtn.
[T: Jane; F: Cho] How?
[T: Cho; F: Jane] I hear things.
Cho mindlessly stares at the electronic device and decides not to respond. Conferring with Jane is how ended up where he is anyway.
10:45p [T: Lisbon; F: Jane] I'll by u 15,000 strawberries.
[T: Jane; F: Lisbon ] U crossed a line.
[T: Lisbon; F: Jane] Always do… JK

[T: Lisbon; F: Jane] Ur ur office.
[T: Jane; F: Lisbon] Stalker.
[T: Lisbon; F: Jane] Not stalker, not psychic. Just observant.
Her phone buzzes as she reads the last message from Jane. It makes her tight scowl smirk a little at the edges. She checks her other message.
11p [T: Lisbon; F: Cho] 2 months of case pizza on me if u let up.
[T: Cho; F: Lisbon] No, Cho.
[T: Lisbon; F: Cho] 3?
[T: Cho; F: Lisbon] No! NO! NO!
She returns to her home page just as it buzzes again. She groans and checks it out.
11:10p [T: Lisbon; F: Jane] I will always look out for you.
[T: Jane; F: Lisbon] Whether I want u 2 or not.
[T: Lisbon; F: Jane] ALWAYS.
[T: Jane; F: Lisbon] U could've been hypnotized like our victim. U need to stop wandering off and letting urself alone w/ the bad guys.
He doesn't reply and she stares at her phone. She picks up her keys and tosses them into her pocket. She is about to turn out her light when her phone chimes. Hoping it is Jane, she immediately drops to her couch and answers.
11:30p [T: Lisbon; F: Cho] Will clean out bullpen for three weeks. Rigsby's area! That's a BIG sacrifice!
[T: Cho; F: Lisbon] This is why its called PUNISHMENT. Wait till midnight then u can go home.
[T: Lisbon; F: Jane] Need to tell you something.

[T: Lisbon; F: Jane] U sure u wanna do this over the phone?
[T: Jane; F: Lisbon] Better B txt, even if ur ass is on fire.
[T: Lisbon; F: Cho] 3 month pizza, Rigsby;s area for 2 months. C'mon, Boss!
[T: Lisbon; F: Jane] Here it goes… I fell in love. I am sorry for these idiotic shenanigans. I am in love with you, Teresa Lisbon!
[T: C, J; F: Lisbon] I don't care!
[T: Lisbon; F: Jane] Please tell me you're joking.
[T: Lisbon; F: Kirkland(K)] Hey sexy momma… wanna go out again?
[T: J, K; F: Lisbon] Leave me alone! I HATE YOU!
