Lie to Me Quote

(Eli calls Ria into an empty room.)
Ria Torres: Yeah, what is it?
Eli Loker: It's about the case I'm working on with Foster.
Ria Torres: I heard the Feds found out about the daughter.
Eli Loker: I called Justice and told them about Carolyn Holland.
Ria Torres: What? No, no, no. No, no, no. You're not telling me this. (Eli nods) You lied to Foster? You stopped those people from getting their money back, their retirements?
Eli Loker: We cannot let people like Carolyn Holland get away with this.
Ria Torres: Are you out of your mind?! Why did you tell me this?
Eli Loker: (looking away) I had to tell somebody.
Ria Torres: Why me?
Eli Loker: I don't trust anybody else.
Ria Torres: You shouldn't trust me, either. They didn't catch you?
Eli Loker: I took a sedative to relax my face. And I know--
Ria Torres: I don't believe this. You gotta tell them. It's the only chance you have of not getting fired.
Eli Loker: What? No! They won't find out.
Ria Torres: (leans in to stress) Lightmen will.
(They look at each other for a few seconds before Ria walks out and leaves Eli alone in the room.)
