ARGUMENTATION

Red John is finished with now despite my unhappiness with lack of answers.

The only way they can entertain going back to it, will be if the ratings slump. (which they will) It is possible they might consider if for their last couple of episodes ever.

The only thing that they can do in this scenario is make PJ RJ. Obviously inknowingly to PJ I have wanted this since day 1.

Right now most of you will stop reading this and say you cant do that blah blah blah. the show is ruined anyway, so just stop and listen for a minute.

They have always subtly implied that PJ is RJ. Regardless whether you hate this. It is true

It is the only way to answer the unanswered questions that everyone has right now. introduce flashbacks etc and link it all together.

I would much rather see this, then a complete change in direction of the show. the new preview looks shit PJ being RJ would be a change in direction anyway.

There have been clues this season which could be capitalised on

firstly McAlister told Jayne he was at his disposal.
this RJ reveal is not too dissimilar to the previous one, ie they were both playing the part of RJ because they were told to by the real RJ ie PJ

McAllisters last words, were I will tell you how I got the list. it could be something as simple as you told me, you are red john. but he didn't get the chance. it could also explain why he was so terrified

PJ murder count is now 3

All the suspects seem scared of PJ. This season for eg Partridge, Styles etc. Styles in the embassy understood that PJ was serious about inflicting pain if he didn't get what he wanted.

Styles reaction when PJ says one of you 5 is RJ. If he knew RJ which has always been implied why would he seem to find it so strange plus styles seemed genuinely interested in helping Patrick

when Bertram said I don't have to speak to you in that silly voice now do I. what if PJ aka the association had Bertram be RJ voice to PJ on the phone. Bertram completed this because its what he got told to do.

Who else would have the ability to create in effect 1000s of followers

I mean after 5 years why would the REAL RED JOHN just let PJ take him to a house going into the unknown and then turn up in a church (again PJ choice). he would just kill him. it really doesn't make any sense, Or he could have just killed Bertram????? Or tell Bertram he had to pretend to be RJ. Or if your Bertram why not just disappear. The blake association cant help you any longer.

This idea could be brilliantly explained by someone better then me with a bit of time and thought and willingness to tie up loose ends

The last scene in the show is having PJ draw the smiley then show ends.
Fantastic last scene

Out of interest, can someone leave me a comment whereby they can say PJ being RJ is impossible with an example.that cannot be overcome knowing what we know now Ie. PJ Cannot be RJ as he cannot be in two places at the same time - he couldn't have worn the mask with the copy cat killers, with the first tiger tiger poem. this could be easily explained eg McAllister was behind the mask helping Patrick as blake association had asked for him to come to watch his back
