Hello
everyone! First of all, I’d like you to remember that English is NOT my first
language, so don’t be mad about the grammatical mistakes I’m gonna make.
Last
night episode was mixed of a lot of feelings. Creepy, touching, nostalgic and
maybe a little bit of mystery. The only thing for sure is that The Mentalist
never forgets its former plot: it’s the story about a man looking for revenge
against the murdered who killed his wife and his daughter. Patrick Jane is
still mourning for his loss.
“Devil’s
Cherry” showed us Jane’s deeply and tormented soul. Since the first scenes, it
seems like we’re coming back to season one, because Jane was making tea into
the victim’s kitchen – just like in the pilot. Jane is depressed because of
Lorelai’s disappeareance. She seemed to be the only person able to bring him
closer to Red John, but now she’s gone.
The
hallucinations scenes really scared me. Jane drank tea, then all of sudden, he
saw a butterfly outside the window. Plus there’s a rabbit into a pot. He
started chasing him, and this was a little bit funny ‘cause it reminds me of
“Alice in Wonderland.” Then this little blonde girl appeared. I liked the
interaction between father and daughter: funny and touching. She claimed to be
his daughter, he struggled saying “My daughter is dead”, this literally broke
my heart.
Jane woke
up in a state of convulsion. Lisbon followed me at the hospital, while Cho, on
charge, kept working on the murder with Van Pelt and Rigsby.
The girl
was Charlotte, Jane’s
daughter indeed. When she told him “I've
been dead for 10 years and you're still stuck in neutral” Charlotte questioned Jane about his empty and useless
life: why chasing a man after ten years for revenge, just to find out he wasn’t
still able to catch him? As result, Jane sacrificed his whole life for Red
John with no sense.
The
episode also focused on Jane’s real feelings for Lisbon. When Charlotte asked
him who’s the person that knows him, Jane answered “Lisbon.” Later, she teased
him about Lisbon with the “She’s cute” and “Have you guys ever…?” those little
moments showed Jane’s awareness feelings for Lisbon. The moment when Charlotte
had to leave was touching and speechless. It was like Jane’s heart was ripped off
his chest.
However,
the team learned about the poisoned tea – the one that Jane drank earlier – and
searching for diamonds. The killer was the victim’s wife. She drugged the man
and made him saw himself to death while she watched.
The end
of episode was the most saddest moments I’ve ever watched. We don’t know if
Patrick Jane decided to make tea with the bella donna – the poisoned tea that
created hallucinations – just to drink, or because he wanted – and hoped – to
see her daughter again.
