in theory #5288, user 'Becky' posted a link to the canadian promo for episode 6.03.
it shows jane hanging from a ledge, and mcallister walking towards him. i'm guessing this is a ruse by jane to see if mcallister can handle the heights ("roth" went to see sophie miller because of acrophobia). i expect mcallister to be ruled out by the end of episode 3, though he will look damn creepy the whole time.
of course, that assumes that sophie's dictation on the recorder about the fear of heights is true. i'm gonna believe it is, because i think red john would need to demonstrate some 'vulnerability' as a measure of good faith with a psychiatrist, or anyone he was trying to manipulate.
you don't build true trust and connection to a broken or damaged person by coming off as an invincible father figure, like red john is perceived to be. people will flock to that, but they don't stay with that. you build trust and get closer to people by reciprocating a vulnerability. sort of like when a man or woman falls for a "bad girl" or "bad boy." there is that "i'll fix you, you'll fix me" belief. if you're hurt, you want to hear that other people know what it's like to hurt. i'm betting that has something to do with how red john is able to bend people over time.
here is the link previously posted by Becky, to that canadian promo. credit to her for finding the link in the first place :)
