Guys we still have most of the season left to answer questions ! The mentalist always has two season finale type big episodes , and sometimes more . We just had the mid season finale and well get another one. Maybe it wont be about the DEAD red john but it could be a cooler story. Lets face it, rj was played out . Heller admitted he didmt know who rj was till recently so there is no explaining anything really ! There is nothing to say becuase all the old clues were just ploys to make is watch the show .
