Hey, guys!
Just because we see Jack Plotnick (Brett Partridge) will appear on Red John's Episode... it doesn't mean the ONLY answer is that HE IS Red John.

After all these years, all this time of mistery.. do you really think they would release such information to reveal the truth like that... easily... specially in this age, where they know for sure everybody talk about it on Web and get the most informations as possible from there? I don't think so.
It must be a kind of trap.. as many times we saw. Probably (and it could a be a good explanation) he participates to show us something about the past...and revealing some information which we still don't know. Simple like that.

Anyway. And  that's why I still believe the real one is Haffner.. who seems to fit on many clues of RJ, and in this exactly moment, everybody thinks he is not the one..after he 'passed the tatoo test'.
Yeah... the 3 suspects on the wall are the bad guys in some way... but the most important ones are who stayed on the Jane's back side...and 'put out' of our view ad aim. Stiles is not RJ, but has strong connection (he's the father or the mentor/master of RJ..whatever) and Haffner.... of course...must be... our guy.


Well. Thank you for attention.
Just put your comments and your 'plausible' click, if you agree.

Big hug, friends.
See you in 2 weeks... on Episode 8, finally.

Walter mashburn is coming back people wait for it and I am telling you that NO! one is best to be RJ in this entire show than walter. he will be the only element of surprise . If walter is not rj then  Patrick jane is RJ. It would have ment that tiger tiger  where the one who kill jane's family not knowing that he was rj but a regular man who skill an ability they would use to get rj by killing his family and making it look like rj  doings not knowing that the same man one the talk show slandering rj name is RJ, but infact jane  knows its not rj that killed his family because he is RJ so he is playing along  to get the entire group and everyone who was involve with his wife and daughter murder to make them pay for it. So if not Walter who I want it to be the jane hands down. it has to be that's the story they are making out of the show.

I've been thinking a lot. People keep forgetting about one very important person. Michael Kirkland (Bob's twin brother). 

We know that Michael Kirkland uses Bob Kirkland's ID (when he killed the guy in the hospital). And Bob Kirkland said that they both had a rough childhood, and someone "helped" Michael, taking him into some cult, etc. Bob thought that Red John was the one that took Michael but when I think of it, it could have been Brett Stiles. We know RJ was in visualize, so I'm guessing Brett Stiles took Michael, "visualized" him and Michael became Red John. They have all those blood rituals in Visualize. And makes sense because Bruno Heller keeps saying it's someone from the list. Michael is, in a way, in the list, being Bob's twin. The only three guys with voices similar to Red John are Brett Partridge, and he's dead, and the twin Kirklands, and one of them is dead. Makes perfect sense if it is Michael Kirkland, and it would still surprise everyone.

Do you guys agree? Think about it, makes a lot of sense.

There will no new episode airing tonight. Fire and Brimstone will air in the US, and also in Canada. This is to get back the alignment. US is the Mentalist's biggest market, CBS does not want the big reveal to be spoiled with Canada one episode ahead.

I agree with many of the Bertram theories out there right now.


I know it seems Partridge is coming back for Red John, but has anyone considered:

1) He is in a flashback explaining the scene where he dies?

2) Anyone can edit IMDB pretty much, so they could've just added him?


Also I saw a scene from an old episode, where a guy takes a city hall hostage to prove his innocence in his wife's murder, and at the end Bertram says a very fishy passage to Lisbon, about how to control people [we were meant to think it was about Media related stuff].

Not saying this means anything . . . but removing the letters that make up the word "Carmen L" from the word "McAllister" you have the following letters remaining:

LIST

(But there is no N in McAllister)

Someone else has probably noticed the "A-LIST-er" anomaly, too!
