LATEST THEORIES

I have just re watched season 5 finale and seen some interesting clues, firstly Lisbon is an accomplice of RJ, if you re watch the episode its Jane that feeds Lisbon all the clues about the happy memory, at 16:47 he is telling Lisbon about the memory, I think this is a fabrication from Jane to see if it gets back to him, the next seen is the both of them in the car travelling to see Pete from the carni folk and Jane asks her to stay in the car, she happily agrees, Why? I assume this gives her time to contact RJ, because earlier when they meet the carni folk Jane doesn't seem to mind her meeting them, then when they go to meet Sean Barlow he asks again to wait( I assume so it doesn't look sus that he only asks once, she refuses this time thou! I assume because she doesn't need time to contact RJ.
Also its only Lisbon who knows there are 7 names and one is Bertram, and on previous episodes its only Lisbon who actually enters his apartment, or that we see. his smile after finding out that someone has been has confirmed his suspicion of Lisbon.
also in previous episodes Jane always states that there is no such thing as a coincidence yet in the final episode he agrees twice with Lisbon that it probably was a coincidence.

Lisbon hurt her hand and Jane is not at all curious, he only asks once, and doesn't pursue it. I think he doesn't want to rattle her.

Also in a Bruno Heller interview he said Loreli will be in season 6, it wont be a memory or flash back, so I assume she is not really dead, the video tape was made to look old but is all done quickly to make it look like he is supremely powerful!!

I think Partidge is RJ and Lisbon is either related or a lover of his, she never has a boyfriend( once with mashburn, and briefly Bosco) The others, except jane have relationships, why is she always single????

Season 5 finale, check out how she looks at partridge when she enters the room, its almost subservient....and then gives him a nod to tell him Jane is in the room, why would she need to? she has a superior position to him and does not need to?????

I think that RJ killing someone from the carni is just a dig at Jane, the rest is a clever rouse by Jane to confirm his suspicion's re Lisbon, he does the same thing in EVERY episode with suspects to get to the truth, this time he has done the same thing to Lisbon...he reads her expressions when the dvd is shown, he did the same thing in the car when he tells her she cant keep secrets, and when he tells her about the memory he looks like he is trying to suss out whether she would buy it!!!!

Lisbon + Partridge = ultimate evil couple

First I didn't believed that Jane is RJ, because I remembered that Jane was sleeping all day, all night while RJ was killing the last victim (5x22) but then I watch it again and I saw that Jane isn't always in a cam view and when the cam is back on Jane he was sleeping on the other side. I know that he could go to the toilet, but why show that he change his side. Or it is just a mistake of director.

There's no way anyone except oneself can know a old childhood memory. There's no way anyone else would know the seven names he had concluded except himself. My suspicion is that Jane is RJ.

red john knows too much and Patrick is the only one who knows what red john knows. I think things happen when he sleeps that he cant control . dual personality. I think he will discover he is red john himself. he will probably do one of his ppl experments to discover that he is red john. It will be a real schocker and whoever wrote this script is a genious. I was surprised to see 122 ppl suspect him as i do.

clues we have about red john is
.
1) Red John is most likely a man
2) He appears to be a Caucasian, and is a white person as described by HaleyRed
3) John has an average height: Rosalind described him as "just under 6 feet tall"
4) Red John has short straight hair (as described by Rosalind Harker)
5)Red John either has or puts on an odd, high pitched and soft voice
6)Red John should be older than 30 years (since his murders date back to the 90's)

Kirkland. Just fit to me. I'll tell you why.

Kirkland always act like he has some.. I would call 'mind issues', he acts strange sometimes, like trying to understand something, very tense and nervous sometimes.

After Lorelei and Jane's kidnapping thing went off of news, he practically vanished.. Then he went through all people's name that Jane has shaken hands with and got a step ahead of him.

He 'stole' Patrick's board to assure that he was a step ahead and he could easily have gotten the happy memory from Brett Stiles (That'd be my kick, for getting his memory, when Patrick was in asylum, maybe) to hurt Patrick.

'I bet you think you're pretty damn clever'. (s05e22 - 42:37m)
The 'damn' for me, looks like a sign of angry (Like a said, Kirkland showed some signs of unquiet) because Jane has gotten closer too much and faster than he thought Jane could be, and that's not good, although RJ said that he's going to kill again, often till one catch another because I think Jane can identify RJ very soon if RJ doesnt do anything to track Jane off. And that means (or should mean) Season 06 will be the finale.

But seeing Brett Partridge very calm when Jane arrives, is very strange either.

Btw, "RJ has powers.", just reminds me Brett Stiles. The guts to do the killing, Partridge maybe. Get away with police issues, Kirkland and Bertram. The other ones I dont mind.
