THE THEORIES

oh HELLER is just messing with us as I said in my theory #13688. He just wants to satisfy the junkies on this site and the only way is to lower the expectations by red-herring this fake thing.

Dont you see it? "The game's over and I won" said by the sherriff..

1-  He suddenly speaks in a different voice. 50% hoax iddentified. Ook u wud say, he just wanted to create that impression of the phone RJ effect to Patrick and all and so the sherriff is made to move is shoulder and all. but its a lame effort really coz.....

2- In the promos shown officially, when RJ utters that line, the official footage has is lower body shown. U mean to say that there will be a scene in the official promo and wont be in the main.

then Heller is not just dumb, he is also unprofessional and in his own world. But no, they compromised RJ's facial expressions while uttering such a important line coz they cant show it in promos but that line is important and needs to be uttered and RJ can only show his back in that promo-scene. so if the sanctity of promo-scenecs law is to hold, this episode has to be a fake.

I think this whole "leak" thing is an illusion made by Heller.

It's simple when you think again. 

Who is the target? : people who are crazy about this whole red john thing, people who can't wait to see who is Red John.

What is the aim?:

Heller is a genius that he knows it's too much difficult to satisfy those crazy persons. He is messing with us. We follow every single clue regarding Red John's identity. We want an almost perfect finishing. There is this "Lost" shit and I think Heller wants us to feel "grateful" for not finishing "the mentalist" as in leaked version.

I can consider this as a great way of saying "come on guys, do you really think that I would do this disgusting ending to you? Do you really think I'm a fucking idiot producer like 4/10 action movies of US? "

Yes, it's simple.
"the rabbit have never disappered, it was always there."

What is the result?:

Those who were able to watch leaked vers. can not decide whether it's real or fake. Some emotionally want a better ending. And I'm sure, when we watch the real thing on Sunday, We will definitely enjoy it.

Another Clues for my theory
- "The ending is disappointing." is the only common sentence came from many different workers of mentalist.

- What the fuck is wrong with Mcallister's voice when he only says "Game's over and I won" ? Watch it again, it ridiculously change and come back again. 

- this is an interactive tv series in the sense that we constantly talks like "come on guys! heller said this. come on guys heller said that." there are many interviews about "who is redjohn" thing. this illusion would be a contingent and smart move. and nobody would have any complains because it's not official.

1-   if its a real thing, heller has wanted to keep it less intense (maybe the sound effect is yet to kick). but even the "HI" from patrick has a little friendly overtone..is he grateful that RJ saved his life yet again..i douubt that..

2-  if its a fake, wow, we got double whammies.....2 rjs to compare.....and this comedy of a thing....

I told this a long time ago. No one believed me. Lot of negative votes initially, but now all will rate this as possible.

WARNING THIS CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS

Okay.. so i watched it. And i can understand some things, thus some things i cannot.
So I'll start with things that you all complain about..
Firstly, sheriff wasnt my RJ of choice. I was betting on Haffner. My bad. You say he's 911 calling little sissy.. I think that this behaviour is normal for person like RJ. He's a maniac, egocentric, obsessed and little bit fucked up. Yeah, he's like that BUT ONLY when he thinks he's one step ahead of his nemesis.. Like in the chapel scene. He's a badass until Jane takes over the control. I can totally understand it - till that time he was sure that he won. That he will kill Patrick, no one will ever suspect that he is RJ. He thought that he's plan is perfect, and it seems that he planned it for a long time, accuring bomb planting plan time. He thoght that he's all plans have been working before - why not now? Self confidence was his weakest point.. And in the end - it lost him. So, thats why he panicked, he never ever was in this situation before, never was step ahead of Jane. Maybe he even was afraid of death like Voldemort or something. That's why all this runing, fast thinking reactions - who wouldnt have called 911 while being chased and afraid of losing life? Heller said, RJ is just a person. Just a man. All the things that he did was tricks to make us think he's some kind of god..

BUT. There are some things that im disappointed with.
*Why wouldn't Jane let him explain how the heck did he knew the list of 7 before him?
*Why the hell Lorelai and other chicks fall into this sheriff guy? He's not exactly a handsome or charming type..
*What about this sudden voice change? Its like he was speaking his own voice and suddenly only ONE sentence in RJ voice. I just dont get it.
*What about this pigeon phbia? Why even the pigeon. And where did Jane hid it before he threw it into sheriffs face? Maybe it wasnt even a phobia, he just got scared because it wasnt expeced..
*Why all the runing? Why the kill without answering all the questions? Why choking him to death just before he got shot in the ribs?
*What about the barn, Visualize and shit? Like it doesn't matter now?
*The Oscar who shoot Bertram suddenly knows RJ identity? They said no one knows it, so why did he listened to sheriff, being so sure he should listen to him? I don't get it too..

Well, I may not be dissapointed about RJs identity, Im just lacking a big closure. Like answers to all the questions. I dunno if its final version of the episode.  I guess they could've shot many versions of the last scene. From the chapel till the end. It wouldnt have cost much.. So lets hope there is something more.
Because, RJ was a con artist. And he deserved more for that 6 years than just less than 20 minutes of last episode of his existance. The Abbot guy got more attention than RJ in this episode. Its named "RED JOHN" not "Abbot guy lookin for a map" isnt it?

We shall see on Sunday. Cheers.

That awkward moment when you realize that a sit com (How I Met Your Mother) had a better mystery character reveal scene than one of the most enthralling Drama mysteries in the last years.
