McAllister was just another Timothy Carter.  Stiles and Haffner are still alive.   either Stiles is Red John and Haffner is his right hand or Haffner is Red John and Stiles is his mentor      does anyone really believe McAllister survived the blast and Stiles and Haffner (who are way more interesting characters) just died without a second mention      no fuckin way       the big twist will be Stiles and Haffner are still alive     it's also possible in the world of the Mentalist that Partridge or a Kirkland Twin are still in the race for whoisredjohn?  just sayin it's possible     what's not possible is Bruno Heller getting all pissed at CBS and deciding to sabotage the entire show and then moving on to his new tv show. . . . a show set in Gotham but without Batman....ya can't wait       since the season isn't over I have to operate under the assumption that McAllister isn't Red John(just like Carter)  and that this is a season long con by Heller &Co. to give us the rightfull RJ end story that everbody wants    the show is Red John without him there is no show        and when they do reveal the real RJ we will see him kill and we the audience will be shown all the answers in flashbacks    key moments in the RJ story    like actually seeing the death of Jane's family with Stiles or Haffner doing the killing   or a scene that shows what he did to Christine Frye   show me in flashback Red John painting a smiley face and   you can't just tell us who Red John is you have to show us who RJ is       you just can't have some retard sheriff from one random episode just show up do a bad impression of the voice and claim to be a real psychic     Jane has always been one step ahead of the audience
