According to Cal Lightman

• E01
• An average human lies 3 times every 10 minutes
• "I do not have faith in words myself"
• Microexpression is an expression that lasts less than a fifth of a second
• The body contradicts the words that is lying
• If someone is surprised for more than a second he is lying or faking it. A real surprise lasts only less than a second.
• Emotion looks the same whoever you are, the truth is written all over our faces.
• "The question is never simply if someone is lying; it's why" - Foster
• Cal: When I asked James about his best race, he broke eye contact in order to remember and answer truthfully. And when i asked him about his run the night of the murder, he never broke eye contact. He wasn't recalling a memory he was lying. Detective: But I thought most people avoid eye contact when they're lying" Cal: No It's a myth, and quite often, they make more eye contact they need to watch if people believe their lies
• Radical Honesty
• When you're lying it's difficult to tell a story backwards because there's no real memory of what happened. Liars rehearse their story in order.
• Wrinkling in you eyes while smiling= it's genuine
• Cal: "You are a terrible liar" Foster: "Normal people think that's a good thing"
• One shoulder shrug, a classical gesture of lying
• E02
• Gesture retreat: Step backwards. Means he doesn't believe a word he just said.
• When using a polygraph innocent people can fail if they feel an increase in any emotion anger, fear,sexual arousal not just guilt.
• A man charged with rape is more likely to be angry even if he is innocent
• People touch their neck when they lie, a classic manipulator
• Foster: arson and rape have an unusually high correlation, they're both crimes about the assertion of power
• Cal: absence of emotion is just as important as presence of emotion
• Cal: Would you lie to right a wrong?
• Cal: Never let the facts get the way in the truth
• You're one to talk=Look who's talking
• Cal: Well, she voiced outrage, and then she slammed her hand down. If she was truly outraged, it all would have happened at the same time
• Cal: Typically only an innocent person's gonna admit to an argument, a guilty person won't admit to anything that would seem incriminating
• E03
• You cant get the right answers if you do not have the right questions
• Caressing you own hand "a self-comforting gesture" trying to reassure yourself when you don't really believe what you're saying
• You gave them reward systems that feeds into their fears
• Sex,drugs,money--the holy trinity
• Duping delight-the pleasure a liar feels when he sees his lies believed
• The finger mostly done when scratching the nose or touching the face it depicts a gestural emblem, an unconscious gesture with a specific meaning.
