Does anyone have a link to the latest episode please? Damn thing airs so early in the morning (3am) here in the UK...

For the long shot I go with Rosalind. She is misleading them with false clues, she's not really blind (the smiley face is a 'I see you but you can't see me' message. Connected from carnival days, possibly related to stiles. RJ disappears for a season, Rosalind is in witness protection. I think she has leverage against TT and blackmails to keep them covering her identity, although they do so without actual knowledge of her name etc, but also has followers loyal to her. Abuse me all you want, it's my opinion and we are all entitled to one! If you disagree, so be it. I also wonder if PJ himself could be RJ. I don't know. The fun is in the guessing.

Just bring in Rosalind Harker, have the men there and have her hear their voice and feel their faces. End of story....unless she is part of Tyger, Tyger throwing out false clues and directives while in witness protection :)

I think it is Rosalind Harker, suffering from multiple personality disorder.  In her male personality of Red John, she is not blind, and assumes the characteristic of a charismatic conspirator.

If Red John doesn't turn out to be Rosalind Harker's right hand, or her henchman, then Bruno Heller is Britney Spears.
