For years, fans of "The Mentalist" have been begging producers to wrap up and solve the Red John mystery. The good news is Season 6 will give fans what they want. The bad news? The highly anticipated resolution will probably spell the end for agents Grace Van Pelt and Wayne Rigsby.



The actors behind these characters, Amanda Righetti and Owain Yeoman respectively, are poised for a Season 6 exit tied to Red John, TVLine reports. Righetti and Yeoman have played coworkers and occasional lovers Van Pelt and Rigsby for five seasons but after the show reveals Red John's identity, the drama will go in a different direction without them.

Man - I like them !! I love watching an interview with Owain Yeoman - he has such a cool accent in his native "Welsh" ?? but he does "American so well Also watch some of the "Sarah Connor Chronicles" where he plays a bad guy... also very well ... too well.... had a hard time getting used to "Rigsby" again.

However - it is about time they wrap up "Red John" with a bow.

The Sheriff was in the very first episode ... and there was something hinky about him then. In all of the promotional materials for this season I have seen ... the Sheriff is in the center every time. Just playing a hunch.

Mentalist Boss Bruno Heller Breaks Down the Red John Suspects
Liz Raftery - Sep 27, 2013 07:39 PM ET

It's the beginning of the end for the Red John story line on CBS' The Mentalist. Creator Bruno Heller has promised that the case which has plagued Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) since Season 1 will be solved this year. And based on the Season 6 premiere, Heller and Co. aren't wasting any time in getting to the conclusion.

The kickoff episode (Sunday, 10/9c, CBS) picks up immediately after the conclusion of Season 5, with Jane and Lisbon (Robin Tunney) in possession of seven names — one of whom will be exposed as Red John midway through the season. By the end of the premiere, one suspect will be out of the running, one will (arguably) have emerged as the frontrunner, and Lisbon and Jane find themselves closer to Red John than they've ever been before. And in this case, that might not be a good thing.

"We've never really started a season with this kind of situation in which our guys are very, very close to the bad guy, but the bad guy knows exactly as much as they do," Heller tells TVGuide.com. "It's an interesting chess position that they're both in as we start. ... In this first episode, Lisbon is dealing with the fact that Jane for the first time doesn't seem to know what to do next. And that scares the hell out of her."

We asked Heller to make a case for each of the seven suspects. "All of those guys have reasons to hide aspects of their personality," he says. "It's just a question of whether they're hiding for ordinary prosaic reasons or for sinister, evil reasons."

Read Heller's assessment of each and then tell us which one you think is Red John:

Brett Stiles (Malcolm McDowell): "He's certainly a frontrunner, partly because it's Malcolm McDowell," Heller quips of the recurring guest star, who plays the leader of the Visualize cult. (Not to mention his history of insanity.) "He has the money, he has the resources, and he certainly has the kind of single-minded temperament and lust for power that you would expect to have from someone like Red John," Heller notes.

Gale Bertram (Michael Gaston): As the CBI director, Bertram is certainly in an ideal position to carry out the Red John killings. " well-placed inside a law enforcement organization, gives him a lot of power," Heller says. "He has admitted that he is a duplicitous and a manipulative person already. We know he can play two sides of the same issue very well. He's certainly got the intellect for it. Whether he has the depth of evil required of this guy, that remains to be seen." Will Jane and Lisbon be able to keep their suspicions about their boss secret this season?

Bob Kirkland (Kevin Corrigan): The Homeland Security agent is "a dark horse," according to Heller. "If you were a betting man, he'd be an outside shot I think, but a good dark horse. He is probably the most mysterious of the candidates, and that makes him suspicious. His behavior sometimes, even what we've seen of his behavior, is inexplicable and even murderous. So, if he ain't Red John, he's certainly one weird cat."

Ray Haffner (Reed Diamond): Heller characterizes former CBI supervisor and cult member Ray Haffner as "the sort of Richard Gere-as-villain type. Smiling, charming. Maybe seems a little too shallow to be a serial killer, or too light. ... With Haffner, he always seems smiling and cheery but there always seems to be a dark cloud behind that smile. That, more than anything, would be what made me suspicious of him."

Reede Smith (Drew Powell): Reed certainly has a temper, but does that make him a killer? "He doesn't even try to hide his anger. He's clearly a man with issues," Heller admits. "The question is, Red John is obviously a very, very intelligent person. What would be a better place to hide your real sort of psychopathic anger than behind a mask of anger? Probably most people are expecting Red John to be a calm, cool, collected type of person. If you were Red John and you wanted to disguise yourself, then you would certainly disguise yourself as the kind of red-faced, angry kind of guy that he can be."

Thomas McAllister (Xander Berkeley): "Again, he's well-placed as a law enforcement official," Heller says of Sheriff McAllister. "He, like Kirkland, has a lot of mystery in his past that makes it difficult to judge. He's a dark horse candidate. He's not a Top 3. He hasn't displayed any signs of madness or anger or homicidal tendencies. So, there's no handle on which Jane can put his suspicions — which in itself is suspicious."

Brett Partridge (Jack Plotnick): "You've always got to be suspicious of the nerds," Heller cautions. "He's both a slightly embittered soul and a very intelligent person. Someone who feels they've been underestimated, underrated and mistreated by the world. Demographically, he's right there where a profiler would say, 'Yeah.'" As far as his career choice as a forensic investigator, "That's exactly the kind of job that a serial killer would want to take up. That's exactly the interests that a serial killer would have. [But] he always appears slightly weedy. Is he concealing strength or is he really that flaccid a person? It's hard to tell."

The Mentalist kicks off Season 6 Sunday at 10/9c on CBS.

As she is taken down to the cells, Red John walks by her and rubs a contact poison on her arm. The only way for that to work is that is HAD to be someone who "belonged" in the innermost of "Secured" facilites ... whch would eliminate Brett Stiles, Bob Kirkland, and Reede Smith.

The Mentalist Recap: The Search For Red John Heats Up [ [Spoiler Alert !

The Mentalist moved forward in the hunt for serial killer Red John on Sunday, offering fans a sudden and shocking death along the way. In the episode, titled “Red Listed,” someone steals Patrick Jane’s fake list of Red John suspects, one that she made to throw off anyone who might want to interfere with her search. Soon after the list is taken, the people on it start to show up dead.

The episode starts with one of those unlucky people on the list, Benjamin Marx, who has been found dead underneath a bridge. For those who remember back to Season 4, Marx is the man who was buried alive by Jane to get him to confess to murder.

FBI Agent Reede Smith, himself one of the seven Red John suspects, said he think Patrick is responsible for the murder.

Patrick tells Teresa about the fake list and how it turned up missing, leading the two to suspect that someone high up the police rankings could be behind the murder.

The team decides to warn the others on the list that they may be in danger, but aren’t quick enough to save Richard Haibach, who is captured and tortured.

It turns out that it is Bob Kirkland who has captured Richard, and brings Patrick to where Richard is being held. Kirkland turns the tables on Patrick to try to get information about the real list of suspects. It turns out that Kirkland’s brother was killed by Red John, and he’s been on a personal mission to find the killer. Eventally Theresa and Madalin arrive in time to save Patrick, and Kirkland is taken into custody.

As the episode ends, Kirkland is put into the back of a police van and stripped, then taken out by a police officer and told to run. The officer then shoots and kills Kirkland, officially and brutally eliminating him from the list of Red John suspects.

If fans noticed that Sunday’s episode of The Mentalist had a bit of a darker tone, the show’s writers said that was by design. The Red John episodes take the show on a bit of a departure from its normal comic, neatly-wrapped-up nature, said writer Rebecca Cutter.

“I really enjoy writing the humor; I love writing Jane’s dialogue,” Cutter said, adding that she had to cut some of the jokes to go along with the darker episode. “This whole season has been a little gorier than normal. There are other shows out there where cutting off fingers is no big deal; that’s like nothing. But on our show, that’s darker than we usually go.”

Fans had a bit of a reprieve from the tension last week, when Wayne Rigsby (Owain Yeoman) and Grace Van Pelt (Amanda Righetti) ended years of their on-again off-again relationship and finally got married.

The bits that fans learned in Sunday’s episode about the Red John conspiracy will gain more meaning later on in the season, Cutter added. “That all will come to bear a lot, coming down into the final episode, when we reveal who Red John is,” she said. “All of that will blow up and be explored very thoroughly and have bigger implications for CBI.”

The Mentalist is expected to wrap up the Red John saga this year.

Insider's Blog: Red Listed
Posted on Oct 21, 2013 01:25pm

And then there were five.

Episode 604 (“Red Listed”) ends with the demise of mysterious Homeland Security Agent Robert Kirkland. It also answers several lingering questions about Kirkland: Why did he kill Jason Lennon (ep 518)? Why did he break into Jane’s office (ep 519)? And finally, why was he in the limousine (ep 506)?

“Red Listed” differs from a typical Mentalist episode in that it doesn’t have what we (somewhat callously) refer to as a “murder of the week.” Those episodes have a structure and a rhythm that, although certainly not easy to write, are at least familiar to me. But for “Red Listed,” I was tasked with writing a purely serialized episode, a link in the Red John chain. In many ways it was like writing a different show. Although challenging, it was also super exciting (and something of an honor) to contribute to the Red John mythology and bring the show one step closer to the final reveal.

Because the episode picks up so many threads from seasons past, the cast of characters were almost entirely returnees – we didn’t need a single casting session. As a result, the episode plays like a greatest hits album – nothing but the best! From the reappearance of creepy Richard Haibach (played by William Mapother) to the powerful return of Madeleine Hightower (Aunjanue Ellis), it was a delight to see these familiar and talented faces. In particular, Kevin Corrigan gave a big, juicy, delicious performance as Agent Kirkland, and the seemingly dense FBI Agent Reede Smith is revealed to be a cold-hearted killer in a chilling performance by Drew Powell. Watch him closely.

On a personal note, I am particularly fond of this episode because the first day of shooting marked the start of my maternity leave, and the last day of shooting, September 3rd, corresponded with the birth of my daughter. Because I was on leave, my fellow writers took turns watching set for me while I stayed at home and ate bon-bons (or something like that!). Being something of a control freak, it was difficult to sit back and let everyone else do the work… but the upside was that I was able to watch the first cut of the episode with “fresh eyes.” I was delighted (but not surprised) to see that veteran Mentalist director Eric Laneuville did an amazing job as always.

Okay, baby is crying, gotta go! I hope you enjoyed the episode as much as I did.

'Mentalist' Postmortem: Red John's Identity, CBI's Future and Jane's Next Move

8:00 PM PST 11/17/2013 by Philiana Ng

"It was fun to destroy parts of the world that I had helped create and have great fondness for," writer Jordan Harper tells THR. "We have taken a monkey wrench to our show and to the world that the show lives in."

[Warning: Major spoilers from Sunday's episode. Do not proceed if you have not watched.]

Has Red John been unmasked?

Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) and Co. whittled down their list of Red John suspects to one name by the end of Sunday's episode, "The Great Red Dragon": CBI Director Gale Bertram (Michael Gaston). Jane made his discovery known to the public through a press conference broadcast on television, prompting Bertram to go on the run.

The Red John search -- one that kicked off when the series debuted in 2008 -- may be nearing its end, but the conflict is much larger than anticipated with the shutdown of the CBI and the FBI's takeover. The writer of Sunday's episode, Jordan Harper, talks to The Hollywood Reporter about the repercussions of Jane's public declaration, whether Bertram is Red John, a world without CBI and next week's "big, big" episode.

What was the most challenging thing to get right?

The hardest part was knitting together the episode that comes before it and the episode that comes after it -- at least that was the first challenge. I really saw this as the middle part of a trilogy, so I had to make sure I delivered on both those fronts. The episode basically takes place entirely at a spring, which is not the normal tempo for The Mentalist. I had a lot to get done, and I wanted it to be fun to watch. There's a version of this story that could have been told with a lot of exposition and fewer shoot-outs, but I wanted to do the shoot-outs.

What was your favorite scene or moment to write?

There are a lot of things about this episode I really, really liked. I think director Elodie Keene and our crew did a great job with the shoot-out with Owain [Yeoman, who plays Rigsby] and Amanda [Righetti, who plays Van Pelt]. It was by far the most intricate action scene I had ever written, and while it comes off as chaotic on the screen, it was anything but in the planning. I really enjoyed introducing Rockmond Dunbar as FBI agent Dennis Abbott, and we will be needing him again.

This episode knocks off several Red John suspects right away following last week's explosion, leaving Bertram as the person Jane, Lisbon and the rest of the CBI team believe is the culprit. Are they correct?

You'll have to watch and see. I don't want to tip anything from the upcoming episode other than Jane has a lot going on in his head, and he's going to have even more going on in the next episode.

Was it particularly difficult seemingly killing three Red John suspects -- Sheriff Tom McAllister, Visualize leader Bret Stiles and FBI agent Ray Haffner -- at the beginning of the hour? Was that always the plan?

To be honest, that was one of the easiest things I had to come up with because Ken Woodruff wrote the episode before mine [titled "Fire and Brimstone"]. All I had to do was write, "Fade in. The house has blown up." I will say, fewer body parts made it in than were on-set that day, which was a personal regret of mine. I understand that you can't get everything out of life, but there was more than a foot there. Our show isn't normally that gory, but we wanted to make very clear that that was a human foot and there were dead bodies in there. Choreographing Lisbon coming into that scene and how fast her mind has to move from who survived this, did anyone survive this, to Smith surviving it, to thinking Smith is Red John, not knowing there were other people with tattoos, she's exactly where Jane was the episode before that. And keeping track of what everybody knows and don't know in that time span was very challenging.

Jane's press conference revealing to the public the identity of Red John was a big move. What does that mean for everyone involved moving forward?

One of the reasons that that is an important scene is Jane knows. And as the audience quickly sees, he's exposing the leader of the CBI as a killer, and that's something that will have repercussions and does in the episode. It's not something he does idly.

You touched on Abbott's entrance, with him shutting down the CBI and relieving everyone of their duties. What is Jane and Co.'s next move and what is their state of mind at the moment?

These are questions that are going to be addressed very quickly in the "Red John" episode. It's a big move to have the CBI shut down. It means Jane doesn't have the backstop he's always had, a veneer of law enforcement that allows him to operate in the way that Jane operates. When he loses that -- well, you can't count Jane out -- he does lose one of the best cards in his hand.

Talk about the scene between Lisbon and Jane after they find out the FBI is taking over, when Lisbon essentially tells him that he won't give up.

I'm glad you picked up on that. To me, that's a big difference between quitting and letting go. The alcoholics say you gotta know the difference between the things you can change and the things you can't, and you can't always force things to go the way you want. But if you let go, you might be able to find other ways of making things work.

Will more information be divulged about The Blake Association?

We're going to keep talking about it.

Now that CBI is 'evidence', how do Jane, Lisbon, Van Pelt, Cho and Rigsby come back together?

It's going to unfold in the next few episodes. As someone who's written on the show for a long time, it was fun to destroy parts of the world that I had helped create and have great fondness for. We have taken a monkey wrench to our show and to the world that the show lives in. Quite a bit of enjoyment came out of that.

What is the world like without CBI at its core?

It's bigger. That's about all I can say, because there's a lot unfolding. It's a brave new world.

With the Red John mystery looking like it'll wrap up soon, are seeds planted for the next big arc?

It's fair to say that while there is going to be a huge shift in the story after this, it's not going to come out of nowhere. Everything that precedes is going to have logical antecedents in these run of episodes.

Jolie Rouge
11-20-2013, 12:10 PM
Without revealing too much, how would you characterize Jane and Bertram's encounter?

I realize that this episode raises a lot of questions. Normally at the end of one of our episodes, you're able to say more definitive things than I am able to say right now. Jane and Bertram will meet again. (Laughs.)

What are you hoping to explore further?

We're in a whole new world now. I'm currently working on my next episode, and I'm getting to do things I've never gotten to do on The Mentalist. It's nice after this many episodes to open the world up and feel like a new show.

Preview next week's episode, which you've said is the last of the "trilogy," so to speak.

It's called "Red John." It's written by Bruno Heller and directed by Chris Long, one of our executive producers, and it's a big, big episode. In the history of our show, it is easily the biggest episode we've ever done. In a lot of ways I'm just setting the table.

The Mentalist airs Sundays at 10 p.m. on CBS.

It is now approaching Episode 8 of Season 6, and most would still think the dead suspects in the last 7 episodes who might have faked death (except Bob Kirkland whom was definitely shot dead by Reede Smith in Episode 5) ... ... that's possible though, let's make my contributions here :

1) Patrick Jane himself is definitely not RJ.

2) Exclude women suspects, RJhad the blind lover Rosalind Harker (who had slept with RJ when RJ was with Sherriff Hardy (Dumar)) (Season 1 Episode 23 - Red John's footsteps). RJ might have raped Lorelei's sister Miranda.RJ is not a woman.

3) Once I made guess that Bertram is RJ, but I deleted him later, he is not as smart as what RJ should be (pretending not smart enough?), he's figure does not fit into Rosalind Harker's description of RJ. Okay, RJ can grow fat, but I don't think he's someone with a big belly and bald. Bertram's escape might represent he's the leader of a certain sub-section of the Blake Organization, he seemed to have a member list and that routine storage place for his dirty deals and money.

4) If the person in mask using his own voice talked to PJ in Season 2 Episode 23 in that small church was RJ himself (same voice as in Season 4 Episode 24 -The Crimson Hat, talked to PJ through the cell phone tied to Luther Wainwright), possibly Brett Patridge and Ray Haffner, closer voice/tone, height and figure fit Rosalind Harker's description, tall just under 6 ft, not big but not weak, straight soft hair, she's a blind woman, she's very sensitive in feeling a person by touching, esp she had slept with RJ.

5) Bret Stiles or Sherriff McAllister are too old to be RJ ? In Season 5, Episode 13 - The Red Barn, 20+ years ago, both were late 30s or early 40s, but in the Ellison Barn, the earliest possible killing by RJ was in 1988, hard to believe a smart powerful serial killer only started to kill his very first victim by the age of late 30s or early 40s? If the killer at Ellison Barn was RJ, possibly RJ was a young fellow member of the Visualized or a young leader around 20 or in 20s. In this theory, age-wise, Haffner and Partridge fit, not Smith and Bertram (both excluded bcos of shape), Stile or McAllister (both excluded bcos of age).

6) The purpose of Bob Kirkland's people breaking into Jane's locked place at the CBI was to get information about who's RJ for his revenge for his twin brother's death. The broke-in happened after Lorelei's death, so, before Lorelei's death, it was RJ himself figured out who were the suspects and asked Lorelei to tape the video. Bob Kirkland asked the persons "do you recognize me? Have you ever seen me before?" whenever he's going to kill them ... it might have been his routines of interrogating people as he was a Homeland Security agent. One thing not understandable, if Bob Kirkland is keen on knowing who's RJ, he would have asked Jason Lennon instead of killing him directly. It didn't make any sense. Neither Bob's twin brother is RJ, as Jason Lennon didn't recognize him at all.

7) Followed point 6, Is it possible some of RJ's secondary-layer accomplices might have recognize RJ's surrogates (or first-layer accomplices) as RJ himself? So they actually didn't know who's actually RJ? This might have been RJ's plan to mess around such that no one can actually point out who's RJ ... ...

8) I don't think RJ would have a 3 dots marked on his arm, he might have faked the 3 dots to the private detective in Episode 5, or simply the person who contacted and killed that private detective was RJ's surrogate.

9) RJ is not necessarily the leader of the Blake Organization of dirty cops. RJ definitely has connection to these people and take advantage of removing evidence pointing at himself.

10) Patrick himself does not consider Bertram RJ, if so, he wouldn't have announced this to the public. At the time when more than 1 person showed the 3 dots tattoo, PJ also realized that those had that tattoo were not RJ.

11) Patrick built his list of suspect from those people who shook hands with him after his wife and daughter were killed, but RJ might have shaken hands with him before.

12) While we can think that's RJ's plan to kill the suspects one by one so as to turn himself to PJ at the end, but whom PJ shot at in his home in Episode 7 when he had all 5 suspects gathered? I think PJ had picked one of those who did not have the 3 dots tatoo, that was either Haffner or Stile, as Stile is excluded in point 5 above, Haffner was the likely one.

13) As there was no clue about Partridge's involvement in the Blake Organization of dirty cops, he might have faked death.

Finally, I hope Haffner or Partridge is RJ. Or one of them was the surrogate for another in some killings.
