In its sixth episode,
The Mentalist Patrick Jane celebrates his birthday in a very special way in
Green Light. In this intense episode - but not dark as last week's - we get to know a little more about Dennis Abbott's past, and I couldn't be more happier. The FBI is brought in to consult on a botched DEA raid, but when Abbott’s former boss tries to blackmail Abbott into keeping the agency’s missteps quiet, he is forced to choose between his career and morals.
Dennis Abbott and Patrick Jane's past can be easily compared. Both men discover they have something in common at least and even the FBI boss has\had his own demon\Red John: a name named Peterson. During the last year they've been working together, Jane and Abbott have developped a strong bond made of trust and sincerity. Jane knows there's something wrong with Abbott after their meeting with Peterson. Dennis makes a huge step and decides to open with Patrick about his terrible secret that's been hunting him for over a decade (also Jane killed Red John after 10 years of hunting). Regardless of Abbott, Jane decided to end a life because McAllister killed his family. In this case, it's different. Abbott killed the Zeta cartel commander to save a life. Different cases, but still united with the same moral: killing someone in order to protect people. Abbott may have risked his career, but he did the right choice.
Wylie & Vega. It seems the authors are going to put give Jason Wylie some romance with Michelle Vega. Too bad, she states she doesn't feel like dating right now because she wants to focus on her career. Wylie looked so disappointed at the end.
Jane and Vega. Another relationship take a step forward. Jane and Vega look like father and daugher to me. He knew she would have never accepted his plan against Peterson, because he's part of the law and a militar one, like her father was, but Jane let Vega speak with her mind and she chooses to acquiesce his plan.
Jane and Lisbon. She once said
"One day I might surprise you." And she did. Patrick Jane had to admit for the first time in his life that he had no idea about Lisbon's gift for him. When he sees the old tea cup from the CBI like a new one, he just couldn't believe it. Lisbon put together all the pieces, but she also put together Jane's person. She has been working for over a decade to understand him, piece by piece, try to recreate his heart, his soul and his body, who have been broken and destroyed by Red John and his family's murder. Teresa Lisbon won his heart, she is a winner: she put the right pieces of Patrick Jane in the right place and built a puzzle.
