ARGUMENTATION

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.
