    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Don Flack (Eddie Cahill): "Maybe you knew she was a guy all along. Maybe you liked it. Did you ever see Brokeback Mountain, Frank?" Brokeback Mountain (2005) was directed by Ang Lee and is about a long-lasting and secretive romance between two cowboys played by Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal.

      The title "The Lying Game" is likely a play on Neil Jordan's The Crying Game (1992).

      Overview shot of garage doors, one has a logo reading NYC Department of Sanitation - Salt Shed. Look through the windows of both garage doors and there are two ambulances inside. Also, the clearance of the garage doors are too low for a salt truck to fit.
    • Quotes

      Detective Mac Taylor: [enters his office to see Stella and Lindsay waiting for him] Something wrong?

      Detective Stella Bonasera: Lindsay's gonna take off for a little while.

      Detective Mac Taylor: [looking at Lindsay] When?

      Detective Lindsay Monroe: I leave tomorrow for Montana. A couple of months ago I got a call from the Bozeman's prosecutors office. They apprehend a suspect who was wanted in a multiple homicide ten years ago. Four girls. They were uh... they were friends of mine. I was the only witness.

      Detective Mac Taylor: [understanding] And the only survivor as I remember.

      Detective Stella Bonasera: They want her to testify.

      Detective Lindsay Monroe: I still see their faces. My friends faces. The mothers' faces... I don't know what I'm more scared of. Standing in front of the monster who did this... or seeing those faces.

      [getting to her feet as as Stella gives her a hug]

      Detective Stella Bonasera: Hey. You take care of youself, kiddo.

      Detective Lindsay Monroe: Thanks.

      Detective Mac Taylor: [gives her a hug] You're tough, Lindsay. You'll pull through this.
