How the hell did that lady see RJ's tattoo. Was he semi Naked *wolf whistles*. Honestly who goes to kill someone in the nip lmao!

I don't get the bugging. RJ has friends in high places. It makes no sense. Also couldn't Haffner give him the info too if he is a member of visualise. I'm very confused about the two groups

Look. Two episodes until "Red John" titled episode. Yet Jane traps the
"Remaining" suspects and vows that they will not leave. Then there is some sort of explosion which we are led to believe is the cabin they all are in.

This makes me suspect one of two things.

1) one of the two "dead" is truly red John. Dead or alive.
2) the "list" is false or wrong.

Even the name of Bob Kirkland is deleted from the list because of his death, I believed that his twin brother Michael still alive and we can say Kirkland's picture is on the list. In season 5 episode 18, Kirkland killed Red John's fellow and he exactly asked this "Have you seen me before?" so far it sounded meaningless but we learned 6x4 Kirkland has a twin who knows Red John. And he figured out Michael is alive, he is in doubt in Red John uses his brother for his dirty jobs. That is why he asks all Red John suspects "Do you recognize me?". Up to present, we must have seen Michael in some scenes but we did not realize for now. We thought him Bob.

There will be a twist, hell next week PJ has them all together but the "RJ" episode is 2 more shows away?!? It won't take 3 hrs of tv to find one tattoo! Either they will all have one as part of the tiger-tiger group or nobody will have one. My guess would be they all do, thus transitioning into the new post RJ story line of tiger-tiger police corruption. Maybe RJ blows then all up to boot?!? It's never cut and dry with this show, lots more surprises to see!! Ones that prob make sense not un-dead characters or characters that showed up outta the blue!! All this list has been good for is moving the story forward and keeping the GVP theories at bay!!

In addition to my Theory #7348, this episode 5 also showed that Partridge is RJ. Hiring an amateur to bug the team's office and letting Jane have leverage against RJ. Come on! RJ could easily slit her throat as he generally does, but no. He preferred to kill her slowly by stabbing and showing his tattoo on his left arm. We know how he likes to deceive Jane to kill someone as if that person is RJ (as in the cases of Timothy Carter and Luther Wainwright). Partridge is not on the list anymore and wants Patrick to kill someone on the list. As we know RJ has no friends, just tools and they are expendable. Maybe someone on the list has that kind of tattoo and he wants Jane to kill him as Jane killed Timothy Carter.

Sorry for my English

Not Kirkland, but a lot of guys are making this last clue out to be a falsity. The tatoo is the last piece of the puzzle guys. Eoghan Mahony even quoted "This is Jane's leverage" Whoever has this tatoo is RJ that's all there is to it. It's not a member of Tiger Tiger, it's RJ as the case is about to be solved. I believe Tiger Tiger is a seperate entity from RJ as Heller even said their is a whole new side of the story to be revealed once RJ is dead. So on this note my pick is either McAllister or Stiles. It's one of these two I will put money on it.

Since I do not believe that RJ is any of the people from the list, I thought I would share one of the people that I strongly suspect.

Alex Jane

Does anyone else suspect Patrick Jane's father, Alex, to be Red John?

He would be one of the only people to really know Patrick and his past. Plus, he is the one who taught Patrick how to be a con artist and a mentalist, so he would know all of his tricks, causing RJ and Patrick to think and be alike.

- He was said to be abusive and wicked
- He had no remorse (forcing Patrick to trick the sick girl at the carnival)
- Him & RJ have both been called 'showmen'
- Him & Patrick had a falling out - From there, Patrick ran off with his wife, and maybe that lead Alex to kill Patrick's wife and child (since that sort of murder is pretty personal).
