I know, I know. Partridge is already dead. Up until about one minute ago I totally agreed with that. However something got me thinking about this again and here is what it is.....

Remember when PJ & Lisbon were shown the picture Cho took of Partridge in the morgue? Lisbon asks PJ what he thinks it means. PJ replies with a question, What do you think it means? Or something close to that. We, the audience were, all focused on the skin being removed from the shoulder. What if PJ noticed something completely different? Maybe a birth mark, or the color of the skin or something specific he knows about Partridge that didn't appear in the photo. PJ acted very decisively after seeing the photo. I think that was the moment he figured out who Red John is. Partridge. Since he wants RJ for himself he wouldn't have pointed this out and had the body be more closely examined. 

*Red John comes into the church.*

Red John: "The game is over and I won".
Patrick Jane: "Not quite." 

*Patrick throws ham on the head of Red John and pushes button of weird device that he hidden in his pocket.*

*Doors of left and right confessionals opens."

*From each comes out tiger.*

SMALL RETROSPECTION:

Patrick knew from the begining who Red John was but he wanted to kill him in a badass way, so he spent few years on training two bengal tigers. 

RETROSPECTION OVER.

*Red John looks around suprised.*

*"Won't Get Fooled Again" starts playing in the background*

*Patrick puts on black sunglasses.*

Patrick Jane: "Tiger, tiger, bitch.

YYYEEEAAAHHH! 

Spoilers; If anyone posted spoilers of course I wouldn't trust them. I would press unlikely, so I do not expect you to do any differently. The format ruins itself when I post so if someone wants to repost, I’d appreciate it being readable.




- It is McAllister in the church. McAllister does not say the "The game's over. I won." That was falsely advertised. Patrick does say "Now you want mercy, after all you've done."

- We quickly go through many twists with McAllister in a short period of time.

- You'll see a continuation from episode 7, of a side to Patrick we've only ever seen once before; it is very out of character from the Patrick we've known since the Pilot.

- McAllister passes on some very crucial information to Patrick

- We brace ourself for a big, big event. You will really question how long Patrick's strange new attitude will last.

- The occurence of the event itself is called into question, before we see one last stand from the good old CBI team.

- It’s in the sneak peek so I will say this: Patrick takes Teresa's gun, and goes to meet Gale Bertram, "Red John" in a park. The gun is very, very important in the sequence of events in the park.

- Patrick does something very unexpected at the meeting, really reinforcing that his attitude has changed

- Red John reveals himself

- We finally get to breathe relief when we know Patrick Jane is the same Patrick Jane we've always known. Devious.

- "The game's over and I won." Someone is setting themselves up to be embarrassed by Patrick Jane, and I know you know who I'm talking about. But not exactly who!

- Is dead the new alive? Red John explains how he was always ahead. His story includes the resurrection of one character in a flashback. Have no fear, Patrick has his own revelations. 4 more characters are resurrected by Patrick's flashback. 

- A few people are more than "duplicitous"

- Red John fits the clues... about him
