THE THEORIES

BH has provided all of the hardcore fans a chance to be in the episode for the RJ reveal. Clues: body|stunt double leak, press for them hiring 'an extra on a bike', the rather strange way the video was made available, CBS 'liking' the leak, the lack of correct score, and the inconsitencies between the trailer and the episode. As in all episodes, you've been thrown a red herring before the actual reveal Sunday. Also, 'trust the list' does not mean RJ is on the list. It means the list trick will be successful in catching red John.

I hope... :)

Hi everyone

It seems that the leaked episode is either a fake or quite bad.

Heller & Baker did say it was a Keyser Soze-esque storyline but this ending was just so bland.

From the first minute of this ep it seemed so flat and the dialogue so unclever & monotonous.

It looks like it might be legitimate though, one of the editors of The Mentalist has posted on twitter (@jimmygadd) saying sorry it's been spoiled & that the press site was hacked.

The leaked version also features all of the frames in the promo.

It does seem off though that the vid was up for so long on CBS & that this episode just feels very un-Mentalist.

I would have hoped we would have felt like it all somehow made at least a bit of sense and that we'd have even a tiny a-ha! moment after all these years.

Sorry guys for posting this.. I am one of those who holding to a slim hope that leaked shit could be Decoy or fake, but...
According to a spoiler I've stumbled in, few days ago. and now after the Rj death scene which I just saw. I've lost my hope that shit could be fake :(
despite Rj revealed as Sheriff Mac. The episode seems not that bad but we still deserve a better Rj, after all what we have gone through, especially those funny clue that he is a charismatic man :))

it seems the only true clue was their unique hands shaking!

Judge Manchester is Red John.

I've said it since the 1st time I saw John Rubinstein on the show. This Sunday my theory will be proven true.
