RelationshipsEdit

With Ria Torres Edit

In the Pilot episode, he bluntly tells Torres upon first meeting her, "I would like to sleep with you."


Later conversation in the Pilot episode:

Eli Loker: I have no chance with you. Nope... Uh, do I have any chance with you?
Ria Torres: You always tell the truth?
Eli Loker: Always.
Ria Torres: How good are you in bed?
Eli Loker: Fair.
Ria Torres: Fair's better than most.

Eli and Ria work closely together and seem to become good friends throughout Seasons 1 and 2 after Loker confides in her that he lied to Foster in the episode "Depraved Heart". When this becomes an issue that results in the LightmShe later calls frantically to Cal and Gillian to help her when a shocked and injured Loker appears from the accident and spends the rest of the episode restraining him from getting too angry and looking after him.

Not much else has been seen between the two other than them working together and Eli briefly comforting Ria at the end of "Delinquent" when she says goodbye to her sister, but Brendan Hines has revealed in interviews that more interaction between the pair will come up in newer episodes as they compete for a promotion with more sexual tension. It has been revealed that the directors and writers are definitely going down the Ria/Eli route.

With Farida MugishaEdit

Loker becomes attracted to Farida, a Ugandan peace activist whom he and Torres are investigating In the episode "Do No Harm." He gives her a copy of her book to autograph, which she signs, including her phone number which Loker shows to Torres. Later in the same episode, Loker is seen giving Farida a tour of the Lightman Group building and explaining his line of work. Upon interrogation, Loker divulges to Torres that they (Farida and he) have started dating. Torres cautions Loker, telling him that Farida appears to be lying about the brutal experiences she had as a child in Uganda (which are the main content of her book). Loker dismisses Torres' claims, but later in the episode, starts to doubt the credibility of her story. He subsequently confronts Farida and finds out that she (Farida) had been lying after all and ends up breaking up with her.
