"He is Mar"... was about to be Martin Talbot who isn't really dead but has assumed a false identify as Bob Kirkland since the late 90's.  Kirkland's power within Homeland Security explains connections to and within FBI and CBI.  Talbot's early years association with Visualize resulted in a branch off cult of followers of RJ which is similar to Visualize but further claims to have more metaphysical connections, hypnosis and psychic influences.  Only problem is age of Talbot as alluded to in the Red Barn episode.  Even with plastic surgery, could Bob Kirkland actually be Martin Talbot who would have to be in his 50's?  I don't think he looks old enough but I don't think we have any hard facts on Talbot's age either...  then again there are about 3 or 4 episodes I still have yet to see.
