Trivia:

When Patrick Jane comes to Shirali Arlov's house to talk about the painting, he is instructed by the guard to use the intercom to state his presence. In an up-close shot of the intercom, numbers "31416" are seen on the display, as some form of a status code. Given numbers are a clear reference to the mathematical constant PI, rounded up to 4 decimals (PI = 3.1415926535...).

Quotes:

Patrick Jane: For what it's worth. I, uh, I just wanted to apologize for my pious rant earlier. I needed a pretext to burn the picture and your family dysfunction became it.
A.P. Caid: No sir, no apology needed. There was some good hard truth in what you said.
