I'll not talk about what happens to Patrick, as you're way behind (ep 14 airs tomorrow in the USA), but about Lisbon being shot and having to tell van Pelt to call for back-up; to be fair to van Pelt, she did just shoot and kill her fiancée. I think she's allowed to be a little slow to respond.

And if the person who you just shot because they tried to shoot you, who you have just discovered is a complete and total lie and in fact is working for your enemy, IS the most important person in the world to you? If your entire world just got turned upside down? If everything you believed just turned out, in a violent and horrible way, to be a fabrication? Yeah, you might be just a tiny bi...
