THE THEORIES

To the people who insist that Red John is some gorgeous lady's man and that the women who are his accomplices are besotted with him in some sexual manner - therefore RJ must be incredibly charming and sexy ...

Remember that RJ is a mentalist who uses hypnosis. He can manipulate the minds of (for example) a Lorelei Martins through hypnosis etc. RJ may as well look like Smith, Haffner, Partridge ... Bosco or Laroche for that matter. The look is not relevant when you can use hypnosis.

FOR ANYONE WHO THINKS JACK PLOTNICK (BRETT PARTRIDGE) IS DEAD


People who say "Brett Partridge is dead. Obviously means he's not Redjohn." I think you're taking things too literally, on purpose now. (You just don't WANT it to be him) Look up the word: alias. Redjohn wasn't born called Redjohn. He has more than one alias, but he has one physical body. Redjohn could kill an alias, and no body would lose life. ERGO, CBS/BRUNO HELLER TECHNICALLY NEVER TOLD A LIE.

To make this easier, I'm going to call him Jack Plotnick (actor for Partridge). Jack Plotnick is playing at least 3 roles off screen. Roy Tagliaferro, Redjohn and Brett Partridge.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPOILER ALERT: PROOF JACK PLOTNICK IS REDJOHN: If you're not aware, I posted a theory which makes the season 6 RJ plot transparent. Be warned, you may not understand it, but its all there. Everything. So if you don't want to know, don't read.

Here is 1/12th preview of it (probably the weakest part of the whole theory).

IN THE FIRST 10 MINUTES OF DESERT ROSE, PATRICK JANE GAINS THE INFORMATION HE NEEDS TO CATCH REDJOHN. HE ONLY CONNECTS THE DOTS ONCE LISBON IS KIDNAPPED. THE OTHER 11/12ths OF MY THEORY SHOW WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING AFTER THAT.

First 10 Minutes: Patrick Jane, an excellent reader of people, meets Brett Partridge in the desert. Rewatch the scene! Look for the flies! Listen for the buzzing! Partridge is not behaving as he usually does. He's irked, but not by Patrick, but by the flies. Patrick, I'm sure notices this, but thinks nothing of it. At the end of the scene, Partridge is crestfallen that his phobia will reveal that he is Redjohn. Partridge knows Bosco told Jane his phobia. So he plans his own demise with the help of Haffner (expert in surveillance) and lures Lisbon (BEAR WITH ME.)


10 hours later: Jane knows who Redjohn is; This is what Jane remembers:

Season 2: Sam Bosco is shot for finding out Redjohn dislikes bugs/flies. He tells Patrick this on his deathbed. The closest, we, as an audience ever get to this is: Lisbon toasts "To Bosco, a damn fly agent." Bruno Heller uses dramatic irony here, for the benefit of DVD viewers. If you don't know what that is, then there's just no point...

Still don't believe me? I didn't expect you to. Bosco's chat with Jane was never revealed. BUT Here's how we the audience members know Partridge is Redjohn.

Bruno Heller's ultimate clue: Redjohn likes cold. Insects are cold-blooded and do not like the cold, hence why Redjohn likes it.

Episode 2:
Jane walks into Bertram's room with the 3 accomplices and says "I've always suspected this room was BUGGED." With great emphasis + pause before BUGGED. Hence why the accomplices Bertram and Reede are edgy. Patrick is sending a message to RJ  (explained in my theory + I also explain the mystery of how RJ guesses Jane's list in the full theory.)

Episode 3:
Sophie Miller says Redjohn has acrophobia, oops wait NO, she says ACARAPHOBIA. A fear of insects/bugs. Jane is misleading Lisbon in episode 3. Explanations can be found why in my main theory.

To those who think that it was Partridge who seized Lisbon from behind: Ask yourself, who did then open the door behind Lisbon while she was leaned over Partridge?!

I honestly have no clue and have gave up trying to figure it out. Okay, how about this...

All seven suspects are red herrings.  Heller will pull something out of left field and RJ will end up being Sam Bosco, Walter Mashburn are someone who hasn't been seen since the second season.
