    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Defiance Schneiderman tells Patrick that she has a psychic named Cleo. In the late 1990s to early 2000s, the Psychic Friends Network had a pay-per-call psychic named Miss Cleo who was famous for her Jamaican patois. At their peak they pulled in over 125 million USD per year, with many people calling in because of the Miss Cleo advertisements.

      In her final years, Youree Dell Harris revealed she was hired to play the part by the PFN and adopt that accent (she was born and raised in Florida, not Jamaica). PFN was revealed as a fraud by several former employees (who had been hired to pretend to be psychics) and it went bankrupt in 1998.
    • Goofs
      When Kim is trying to convince Lisbon to help the FBI on their case, she says that Jane stopped the ten-year reign of a mass murderer. Red John was a serial killer, which by definition is a criminal behavior distinctly different from mass murder.
    • Quotes

      Teresa Lisbon: I have to say, I am impressed. You outplayed the F.B.I.

      Patrick Jane: No contest. Did they tell you when I start work?

      Teresa Lisbon: When *we* start.

      Patrick Jane: We? What about your job?

      Teresa Lisbon: Nah. It was boring.

      Patrick Jane: Yeah, I told you.

      Teresa Lisbon: Yeah. But you had no right to. It's my life, and I'll decide what to do with it.

      Patrick Jane: And you decided correctly.

      Teresa Lisbon: There was never any choice.

      Patrick Jane: Oh, come on. It'll be fun. Let's see what kind of trouble we can make.

    Storyline back where it belongs!
    After several episodes trying to get back on track after the (fairly weak?) end of the Red John story, the writers may have succeeded. We have the basic conflict between instinct and procedure (Jane v Fischer/Abbot) with Jane/Lisbon/Fischer coming in to fill the romantic gap left by van Pelt and Rigsby (no "v" - what about Lisbon/Fischer?), good puzzles throughout the episode and the sustained humour. I think that Wyilie's arrival in the office and interchange with Cho gave me the biggest laugh yet in the series. There is clearly at least one other series in this character.
