THE THEORIES

I've seen more than a few theories that explain RJ acquiring PJ's list by the fact Lorelei is still alive. Can somebody please explain what I am missing? How the heck does Lorelei being alive gain RJ the list?

To me the question of how RJ got the list is a huge mystery that would gain us some serious insight ESPECIALLY if the list is false.

Haha, it's nice to see some huge essays ruling out who can't be RJ or cross-profiling 1 person. I thought I'd try a different route. In season 4 the hypnotised girl reveals RJ is a normal man with a strange voice. So his voice is NOT being modified through technology. Lets not beat around the bush, after Simon Baker's RJ voice is distorted, we hear supervillain Elmo speaking.

If any character in the history of the show talks like that in the reveal, millions of people will die of laughter, that is not RJ's M.O...

Only 4 people: Tommy from season one, Timothy Carter, Brett Partridge and Michael Kirkland could pull it off.

Sorry for not writing a huge essay.

I think RJ is not in the list but also i think RJ is in the fake list. If Kirk was not dead he could kill the real Rj maybe.

Red John has a kind of love for Patrick. This is very important to remember when we look out for him.

As Haffner said in last week's episode that Patrick has angered very powerful people then, why are those powerful people just sitting around. Why don't they suspend Jane from CBI for a while? They could have done that in the se6 ep 1 shooting incident itself or for giving out a fake least leading to murder?

If suspended from CBI, Jane would have limited resources to look for Red John.
So my question is - Who is stopping these powerful people from taking any action against Jane?
Now dont tell me its the law and all, because we already know that they are doing some pretty unlawful things out there.

If these powerful people are red john accomplices, then they should have acted by now against Jane. It they are against Red John, then they should not be angry at all. They ought to be delighted with Patrick's progress. Unless there is some kind of a forced deal where everyone around Patrick is helpless including Red John (We can see it in his last few hasty murders).

So my question here is Who is protecting Patrick Jane?

Just a stupid question but logical , Patrick Jane suspects that RED JHON is the one who hired that women to bug Cho 's office , Why ?
Rhed Jhone can hack the system of CBI , he knows every move of Patrick Jane , a lot of followers, it s just dont make any sense, i dont beleive that Red Jhone who hired that women , maybe he still manipulate Jane

One thing is for sure. If red John is on that list, I will never watch anything directed by Bruno helper again.

Like omg how pretentious would that be. None nd I mean None of them display any sort of intellectual competition towards pj... Like Fuck that. It would be more entertaining if he made pj red John.. If he's thinking about using any of those Boring Losers on the list!!!!!

Please helper I've watched your show when I'm meant to be in the library studying, or reading up for a test.... Please make it be worth it.... Dont make me hate you

Thanks :)

Ok, this will be more questions and random thoughts than a theory, let´s start with, how did Red John read Patrick´s mind? We know now that he could have learnt the happy memory part from Sophie Miller, but what about the list? How did he know those 7 names even BEFORE Patrick himself knew them? I personally think there´s something fishy going on there and that the list is fake, I strongly believe that if RJ was REALLY on that list, he would have killed Patrick as soon as possible since he wouldn´t want to risk being catched, but that´s just how I see things, I guess we´ll know for real soon enough. IF those are really the final suspects I guess it could be either Haffner or McAllister, I have a hard time seeing any of the others being Red John, maybe Partridge but I doubt BH will use that old "he was not really dead" trick, it would be kind of lame IMHO.
Another question is, is the Tyger Tyger "conspiracy" (as some call it) with Red John, against him or neutral? I´m guessing they are either chasing him or not even caring about what happens to him, I don´t think RJ is a part of it. Maybe the tattoo we heard about is a TT thing and one of them killed the PI, and, as some people already claimed, I don´t think RJ hired that woman.
Now, about Kirkland´s brother, I think he might be alive and probably is an important minion of RJ, and I think it was him in the hospital killing Jason Lennon, though it´s not very plausible, I still do. 
Anyway, I had more things in mind but seems I can´t put them into words yet haha to finish this, I must ask...please PLEASE people, stop posting those PJ is RJ theories, we should know better now at this point of the show, also, RJ is not a woman, so enough of that too, yes? I don´t want to belittle any theory but those really make no sense at all.
