THE THEORIES

If you watch the last scene of ep 6 closely you will notice that Brett stiles does have a tattoo on his left shoulder but it's not 3 dots it's an anarchy tattoo which has similar meaning to the 3 dots tattoo it symbolises anti-government movement it's also used by people who feel they don't belong to any group or cult of certain people however I wonder if it's an actual clue if not then why is it there also I don't believe that red john is the one who killed the pi for two reasons first he is not sloppy to leave her like that he should've sliced her off second his shadow can be seen a moment before he enters and it doesn't look like any of the possible suspects except for maybe Kirkland but I don't buy it one last guess I believe that the wait no that was heard before the gunshot was Bertram's jane asked the three to explain the whole tattoo thing or he will shoot them one by one until one talks so the gunshot was just an attempt to crack one of them so he reveals the tyger tyger conspiracy but can't reveal everything because of the bomb I don't want to seem too meticulous but the explosion started from where haffner and stiles where in the room

In the last episode, Fire and Brimstone, Grace goes to visit Brett Styles. And he is talking about a man from Ecuador that he helped. He calls him "ambitious" and says he is the minister of state. Then he quickly rushes Grace out.

Is this some sort of clue?

Not a theory, but I'm wondering PJ's emotions before
putting the 5 suspects together. PJ took deep breaths in his house when setting
up the game.

WHY?

In the finale of season 3, he set a trap to
lure RJ by giving different suspects with different hotel room numbers. He
didn't look distress at all even when he was sitting in the mall with Bertram.
Remember, PJ was expecting to meet Red John face to face there soon.

All
I'm saying is PJ's facial expressions and emotions were so different in this
face off. Did it mean anything?

I don't know if this has been proposed, as this is my first time stumpling across this site, but I think that since the 2 latest episodes it has been much clearer who Red John is.
With the whole Tyger Tyger order was revealed I started to think that there is no Red John. Red John is clearly and alias for all of those involed in the order. Red John is the sum of the tyger tyger order. Hence the ability to move unseen, the common tyger tyger tattoo and the shared knowledge of anyone comming close to Red John. The next episode is called The Great Red Dragon. Looking up trivia for this episode is revealing and interest quote:

"And behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and
seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the
stars of heaven, and did cast them to earth." - Rev. 12:3-4, (KJV)

Seven head, ten horns, and sevens crowns. If the title is an reference to this quote and to Red John, it is a hint there Red John is more than a single human being. He is the sum of the people hiding under his name. Depending on how big the Tyger Tyger order is, they may all be part of the Red John alias, or maybe it is the leaders of the order that is Red John.

Dunno, but this have been bugging my mind since the order was introduced.

Does anyone else think that Red John has a hard time making water cooler 'small talk' with his coworkers on Mondays?

Coworker: "Hey Roy, what did you do over the weekend?"

Red John: "Ummmm............I visited some friends? <high-pitched voice with inflection at the end> We hung out at a Malibu beach house until the party got busted-up" <walks back to his cubicle, whistling some Bach>
