Season 4 scene in which Jane calls Maura after a Hoyt nightmare

• Maura:

  Jane?

• Jane:

  Hey, I didn’t think you would answer. What’re you doing up?

• Maura:

  I’m watching Tommy. Your mom had to run to the store to get diapers.

• Jane:

  It’s two in the morning! Couldn’t she wait until the sun rose?

• Maura:

  Well, Jane, infants do not have control over their bowel movements the way adults do.

• Jane:

  Yes, thank you, Maura… Don’t you have extra diapers at your place?

• Maura:

  I did until Tommy took them last weekend before they went to the park.

• Jane:

  Oh, yeah. Forgot about that.

• Maura:

  It seems that Tommy did, too, since he has yet to re-stock my supply.

• Jane:

  Well, that’s the kind of thing you’re gunna have to get on him about. He’s not real good at paying people back for things. And when I say Get On, I don't actually mean Get On Him.

• Maura:

  I am familiar with that colloquialism. I’ll just purchase some more next time I’m at the store.

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  …

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  Is everything okay?

• Jane:

  What? Yeah, everything’s fine.

• Maura:

  You sounded sleepy when I first picked up.

• Jane:

  Oh. Yeah. I was, a little. I was just. Yeah.

• Maura:

  Is the case bothering you?

• Jane:

  No. A little. I had a nightmare.

• Maura:

  …

• Jane:

  Hoyt was in it.

• Maura:

  Well, I can’t say I’m surprised. You didn’t exactly take the advised time to heal in a healthy way after his capture and death. It only makes sense that this case would trigger latent fears and anxieties, and that those fears and anxieties would manifest themselves in your dreams.

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  …

• Jane:

  *weakly* So, he’s still dead, right?

• Maura:

  *softly* Yes, Jane. He is still dead. He suffered from a pneumothorax only a minute after your scalpel entered his chest, and he went into cardiac arrest shortly thereafter. His body is buried six feet in the ground with nearly four tons of dirt weighing it down.

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  Do you want to come over? Or—I can’t leave TJ—but I could come to you after your mom gets home.

• Jane:

  No, please don’t say anything to her. I don’t want her to know. I’m totally fine. Everything's fine.

• Maura:

  Try some of those breathing exercises I showed you.

• Jane:

  Okay. Maybe.

• Maura:

  They’ll help.

• Jane:

  Okay.

• Maura:

  And Jane?

• Jane:

  Yeah.

• Maura:

  Just as anxiety can create nightmares, so can nightmares create anxiety. Don’t let this snowball. If you want to talk again, I’ll keep my phone on vibrate.

• Jane:

  Okay. Thanks. I’ll be fine. I just wanted to…I just… *sigh*

• Maura:

  I know. I love you, okay?

• Jane:

  Yeah, I know.

• Maura:

  …

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  Why do you never say it back?

• Jane:

  What?

• Maura:

  …

• Jane:

  C’mon, Maur. You know how I feel. You’re my best friend.

• Maura:

  You can’t expect everyone to know how you feel about them if you never say it out loud.

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  You know I've never had a best friend before.

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  I’m not hanging up this phone until you say it.

• Jane:

  Maura!

• Maura:

  TJ just nodded off. I’m putting him down…

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  Okay, I’m getting back in bed. I’m a patient woman, Jane. I can wait all night.

• Jane:

  You’re ridiculous.

• Maura:

  And you’re too stubborn.

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  …

• Jane:

  …

• Maura:

  *falls asleep with the phone balanced on her cheek*

• Jane:

  *whispers* I love you, too.
