two things: i'd like to say I have really enjoyed the mentalist for all 6 seasons. it is one of my favorite shows, and perhaps other than House, has developed the main character as well as any other I can recall. That said, I think the writers went way overboard with red herrings, tricks, twists, and misinformation...so much so that no matter what is revealed there will be TOO many loose ends and suspicion to be able to work through or tie up...we have so much that is still unsolved - the RJ connection to the barn and visualize, how betram ended up in TT to begin with, what happened with Frye, why did Kirkland kill Lennon in the hospital, what happened to Michael Kirkland, why is van pelt so odd...there just won't ever be a satisfactory ending in so far as the plot goes, even after we know who Rj is..Secondly, I have seen a lot of posts about the RJ clue "or until I catch you" - is it possible that RJ expects Jane to find and kill the wrong man and then come along and arrest him? If Rj is way up in TT, then it makes sense that he believes if Jane screws up, he will be there to have evidence that Jane killed the wrong guy and put him away forever. Just a thought
