THE THEORIES

Last episode, Patricks comment when Reede broke down in custody:
"... Confessed to murder, Red John would never break like that, not even as an act"

Well, seems like he broke even worse...

I'm also hoping for it to be fake but I guess the whole season has to be fake then. Grown up men saying 'Tyger Tyger' to eachother and tattooing their secret clubsign on the arm. 

The list was a mistake to begin with, it removed all suspense of revealing Red John. They wasted 7 episodes on what? No information about Red Johns past and how he could gain so much power.

"I am psychic" - that should explain it all? 

You are psycho, Heller

I AM NOT ACCUSING MCALLISTER.


So, I haven't looked for the "leaked"" episode.  I seem to think it is probably real though.  Why would they film and edit a whole episode, just to leak it and set us on a wild goose chase?  Now, if they did do that, it probably is the most elaborate rouse in television history.  Just want to see what you all think...

Click "plausible" if you believe the "leaked" episode is the real deal.

Click "unlikely" if you believe the leaked episode is fake.

Please leave a plausible or unplausible, I would definitely like to see if my opinion is shared, or leave a comment. 

IF you haven't seen the link, do not read any further, for supreme spoilers lay ahead... If you want to see it, find the link here.:

We have who it is. There's absolutely no way it could not be McAllister, as it takes days, sometimes even weeks, and tons of money to hire him for the time. They wouldn't do that. Some smaller details during the scenes with McAllister might change, but it is definitely him. Please, please, please stop saying it's Partridge. He's gone with the pigeons.

I personally didn't love the episode. It could have been a lot better. But it also could've been a lot worse. They could've just ended with Jane shooting him. They could've ended without any explanation whatsoever. However, it didn't cover two things I really wanted to know - how the hell did he get the list, and what did all those women see in him?

I believe those will be explored more in "Green Thumb" and "My Blue Heaven". In the meantime, Californians can sleep tight. Unless the Blake Association is coming - then you're screwed.

Tyger Tyger.

Idk, the whole leaked thing was 45 mins, so all the scenes were there. Sound and music can only do so much.The main complaint is that there are many questions unanswered. Thats fine with me. It makes sense in PATRICK'S perspective. Patrick doesn't want to give this disgusting piece of inhuman filth the satisfaction that he was curious. Red John thrives on attention and appreciation. Patrick's last words to him and his refusal to hear any explanations from Red John was him spiting him. Serial killers like red john kill for a reason. They like to feel "special" when all they are is abominations. Red John created this mystique and mystery crap around him, and Patrick refusing to give a crap about his trick and how he did them is him completely killing Red John, in both soul and body.
