My hope:
Styles is alive. Lisbon eluded to him being alive with foreshadowing. Macalister started tiger tiger but styles was his teacher . How else could he brainwash kristina frye ? Macalister pulled
Out styles before the bomb.
Van pelt is related to styles. I know this show has made up clues for no reason but they are showing us a weird connection between the two. The show is also making rigsby look suspicious. There is a good reason why many thought he was rj. He has been so out of character lately . Re watch that usb scene with them in bertrams secret storage . Weird dynamic going on. It felt like it went like this :"hey cho your buying into our plan to make bertram look like red john right" . Rigsby wasnt asking van pelt he was staring at cho as he addressed them both

Season 6 episode 13:
Patrick jane returns to work for the fbi after Abbot pleads with him to do so. Abbot discovers another suspect in the tiger tiger scandal that left a few loose ends. This has something to do with the usb drive found.
Patrick learns thru the code that there was a person that macalister did most his business with and had many phone calls too. Jane searches the clues to and tells his team that he has found something. This spurs an interest in van pelt and rigsby as they seemed very worry some about the whole ordeal and are eager to help.
Jane lies and tells the team that a man he met thru the usb info has red john info. Jane than watches this man untill rigsby shows up to kill him
Rigsby tries to think of a reason why hes there and jane calls him red john. This forces rigsby into his true voice and then van pelt comes out with a gun. Pointed at patrick. She craves bad boys . Daddy issues for sure . Jane thinks its his end when cho comes out and shoots van pelt and rigsby both.

Guys we still have most of the season left to answer questions ! The mentalist always has two season finale type big episodes , and sometimes more . We just had the mid season finale and well get another one. Maybe it wont be about the DEAD red john but it could be a cooler story. Lets face it, rj was played out . Heller admitted he didmt know who rj was till recently so there is no explaining anything really ! There is nothing to say becuase all the old clues were just ploys to make is watch the show .

I thought the episode was awesome . I didn't like it the first time but now i understand it all. Everything was explained by the discovery of the Blake Association. Thats how red john was one step ahead. But it was NEVER red john that was a step of ahead, it was a whole organization. For all we know timothy carter the og red john could of killed Patrick's wife and daughter. Maybe the sherif did it himself. But what i learned from this episode was this...
Tom macalister was a power hungry control freak. A sadistic man who used women to do his bidding. Sort of like charles manson. He was obsessed with the game as patrick was for 6 seasons . Jane gave up this game because it played right into what red john wanted . Jane didnt care for an explanation about the tricks and magic this serial killer created. Jane realized hes just an obsessed guy who doesnt have many friends. "He craves" the affection and attention . Jane gave him none . He wasn't a serial killer he was a mob boss more so in that he was drunk with power and got offended at janes remarks . He wasn't visualize religious or really had any doctrine except power and control . He was a sheriff for crying out loud!

I loved that jane strangled him. It was wicked and twisted . Also jane made macalisters last thoughts be "regretting killing janes family" and "being afraid to die" . No smiley faces here. Gurgle gurgle lights out .
In conclusion, red john never existed . The image macalister created was a facade. A red herring . A game . He was the leader of a mob called the blake association. He was a sick mentally ill prick too but he WAS NOT DEXTER MORGAN!!!

The writing was great . The birds are dinosaurs line went way over peoples heads. Think about our government and how they act . Wink wink right back at u mr heller ;)

For all you haters out there , when red john said he created the blake association ; that answered 95 percent of the questions . If you didn't like the episode thats totally fine . But dont say it was badly written and that no answers were given. Thats shit! Your acting like the mentalist isnt a semi cheesy show with cheesy dialogue ! You know its main demographic is old ladies too. Im 28 and i love it , but i am also honest about what it is and was. Jane didnt wanna give rj the satisfaction about explaining how he guessed the list. That was cool. When jane strangled him after making rj feel sorry for everything was wicked and cool. The gurgling was great. It wasnt partridge and you need to understand that. Why wasnt it bp? Becuase bp had an even lesser role on the show than maclister ! Seriously he had like 5 lines and jane ripped him apart every-time. Partridge was cool cuz he sucked and was dumb and jane destroyed him verbally.
THIS is NOT DEXTER!!!!!!
