THE THEORIES

This show is all about Red John. The show became so popular because of Red John. Without Red John its just another cop drama. Red John is the reason why we are all on this website. Thats why I think the writers will give the fan what we want which is Brett Partridge. So I think Partridge will come back somehow and turn out to be RED JOHN!

I think Jane is saying its Gale so red john will get angry. Red john doesnt want someone else getting credit for his work and will show himself, so its not Gale

WTF!!!   I thought they were going to somehow address that whole Malibu-Sacramento discrepancy.  Since when is Malibu close enough to Sacramento for all of those fool-ios to meet up conveniently and then, have them back in Sacramento as the nearest hospital location?  What the crap?

   Also, does it mean something that Cho never looked at Partridges face?  Could it be that Partridge used a Tiger Tiger lackey to play his corpse?  I hope they check on him again before he is cremated.  

   I love what they did with Reede Smith -- had him squeal about everything when the Blake Association turned on him.  I actually felt sorry for him, even has he was tasting the same medicine he used on Kirkland.

    Still remaining questions:  Why did they use RJ music when we first met him?  http://thementalist.wikia.com/wiki/Robert_Kirkland  Look under "Appearances."   

     Partridge is still the only one with the effeminate high-pitched voice.  I feel so sad that Styles and Haffner were blown up (plus the foot).  Sure, they were kind of dicks, but they weren't Tyger, Tyger.  Eh, for McAllister.
 
    Lots of red herrings and distractions -- I hate how the show is only about 44 mins minus commercials.  This should have been 2 hours.  In a lot of ways "Strawberries and Cream" was the BEST Mentalist episode ever, why can't they bring the same awesomeness to bear here?

    Bertram is NOT Red John, he is just a high-ranking Tyger/Blake dude on the run.

    Was anyone else sad when they were shutting down (our home) the CBI?  So abrupt, so sudden.  The new actor who shut it down seems like a pretty great actor with a great presence though.

 Come on, no Whammy, no Whammy, let it be Partridge!!!

   Prominent power-wielding director (Bertram) or isolated, creepy, duplicitous weakling secret genius (Partridge)?  Also, he always misdirects whether it is a real or copycat Red John crime scene.  
http://thementalist.wikia.com/wiki/Brett_Partridge  Very under-the-surface charismatic.

Couple things.

1. That leaked photo is 100% Mcallister, but would the writers really show Red John running around breaking into houses and expose him to us that way? Wouldn't Patrick facing him be the first time we REALLY SEE WHO HE IS?

2. They did not show BP's face. Messing with us? Probably.

3. That voice did NOT sound like someone we know. Was it just manipulated so we wouldn't know?

 This is Partridge's voice listen to this Mentalist - All Brett Partridge appearance - VOSTFR,
same voice and the fact that we see a bald head !!! ( he change his
appearance and fake his death ) like in Agatha Christie novel Ten Little
Indians the killer is already dead, but in this case he fake is death.
And the Tiger Tiger thing it's only to give PJ a bone, to focus on something else

We don't see a body and it would be WAY too obvious if it was Bertram. I can't believe that after 6 years we're finally about to find out who RJ is. I cannot wait but it will be sad to see the RJ storyline go!
