LATEST THEORIES

My theory of the future: I think McAllister isn't Red John. Jane will be caught and offered that he will not be judged provided that he will continue to work for law enforcement (FBI). Then Jane will have to accept the offer instead of going to prison and he will start to work again. In time he will be a part of something like Tyger Tyger. Then Red John will appear and show Jane that even Jane is under Red John's orders.

Anyone else think that Hardy, the nicotine gum chewing son of Tanner may have been RH's lover? Also, Tanner and VanPelt translations? Not really sure how it would affect the RJ outcome....

Lorelie said red john and jane were exactly alike . No way in hell macalister is like jane in any way shape or form. Completely different personalities . She said red john can give him a new life ? How could macalister give him a new life ?
Lorelie is alive . He death scene is crazy. No slit throat and a giant picture of a woman that says ALIVE with a
Mirror next to it .

I knew McAllister was going to be Red John after Great Red Dragon episode because it was obvious he faked his death -- he stood next to Smith and Bertram, who walked away without a scratch, so he had to be alive.  The whole reveal and explanation of it was hardly surprising -- though Bertram's death scene was a good twist, he was "smart but dumb."

The reveal of Red John was very poorly done, lots of unanswered questions -- LOTS.  Why did McAllister tell Jane Tyger Tyger?  Why would he give himself away like that?  So much just still doesn't make ANY bit of sense. 

Red John's fear turns out to be Lisbon's favorite memory?  And Jane uses a pigeon as his ultimate weapon?  DUMB.  How did McAllister pull off Partridge and Lisbon in a house filled with pigeons if that was his fear?

And ALL that Jane wants to know is if McAllister is sorry?  Really, that's IT?!!  No OTHER questions?  Is that how Heller gets out of answering OUR questions?  By having Jane say he doesn't want to know anything? 

McAllister's death scene was pathetic.  Jane looked like he was ejaculating over McAllister.  It was just gross.  And "I really AM psychic!" are Red John's last words.  No, no, no....SOMETHING isn't right??!!
