And this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMFbgTz50EM (Dark suit and no bears - Bob kills him because he wants to find out who Red John is not Patrick?)
... seems strange how one minute he has a beard and grey suit... next minute he has no beard and dark suit... also look at the different facial expressions and body language...
