Lie To Me

Dr. Burns: I'm a psychologist. My conversations with the kids are confidential. It's important that they trust me. Cal: Ethics. That's always so inconvenient.

Ria: Lightman means well, but he's slightly insane. Ava: Yeah, I noticed.

Ava: Me and Tyrel weren't doing anything wrong. Cal: Yeah, well, you weren't doing anything right, either, were you?

Ria: (to Cal) Look, Ava's a liar, and a manipulator, and she works every angle she can. It doesn't matter who she hurts. Actually, she's kind of just like you.

Cal: Look, you'll get your license when you're good and ready. Emily: But I've been 16 for months. Cal: Which is my point exactly.

Ava: What's with the old white guy? Cal: I'm your sisters boss. Ava: The lie guy? Cal: Yep.

Loker: I mean, all day not one of you thought to say, hey, let's just call Eli and tell him why nobody's in the office. Foster: Loker, a girl was murdered. Loker: Well, that's exactly my point. It's a scary world. Bad things happen. I worry. And apparently you have a sister. Ria: Half-sister.

Cal: You got the hots for Foster? Dr. Burns: I cared about Marly and I wanted to help her. Cal: Now, tell the truth Burnsy. I mean, assuming that you're not the father, I can put in a good word for you with Foster. Dr. Burns: You're kind of a jerk. Cal: Yeah, I have been told that.

Cal: (to Ava) You know, you remind me of your sister 2 years ago. A completely open book, but trying desperately to be inscrutable.

Ava: (to Cal) You're super sexy. You want to make out? Cal: Absolutely. Climb on board. Gillian: (to Dr. Burns) She's testing him. Dr. Burns: Ya think? Gillian: Sorry... I'll hold the condescension.

Ria: (about Ava) I'm petitioning for custody. Cal: Well, once again you're fired. Ria: You can't just always threaten to fire people all the time! Cal: Yeah, I can actually. Especially when they prove to be complete idiots.

(A group of people has just broken into to Foster's house and attacked her and Ava.) Cal: Where the bloody hell are the cops, then? Gillian: No, they're just gonna take Ava back to juvie and then they'll arrest you for taking her from there. We can take care of this on our own. Cal: Well, yeah, but... Well, you're supposed to be the sensible one, you know? Gillian: Yeah, and you're supposed to take unnecessary risks. Cal: Not when it comes to you.

Ria: 20 buck says those cops are here for Ava. Cal: Ah, sisterly love. Ria: Half sister. The degenerate paternal half.
