FEATURED RIVALRY #13:

Patrick Jane vs. Red John (The Mentalist)



"Patrick Jane is a former consultant to the California Bureau of Investigation. He uses his keen powers of observation, his brilliant mind and his talent for mischief to solve crimes. Despite his lack of limits and disrespect for the protocol, he is valued because his tricks, devices and mind games end the cases. His motivation for joining CBI is to find and kill Red John.

Jane previously worked as a psychic and became a minor celebrity. In a TV interview, Jane taunted Red John, a serial killer, saying: "He's an ugly, tormented little man, a lonely soul, sad, very sad." This prompted Red John to murder Jane's wife, Angela Ruskin Jane, and daughter, Charlotte Anne Jane. Ever since, Jane's life purpose has been to avenge his family by killing Red John. In the episode Red John, he finally exacted his revenge and killed Red John. After two years in hiding, he was recruited to the FBI as a consultant." -The Mentalist Wiki

Despite me having never really watched the show, whenever I watched the commercials for it, I was kind of fascinated seeing the perceived brilliance of Patrick Jane struggling with the mysteriousness of Red John. I always watched that red smily face and thought: "That must be one heck of an astute murderer." -Advokaiser
