In Season 2 of The Mentalist we learnt that...


Rigsby's father was a biker.


Cho is awesome.


Cho is REALLY awesome.


The CBI has no screening policy for it's employees (Case in point: the CBI Psychiatrist, Rebecca).


The CBI has no screening process when people enter the building ('The Fixer' from Episode 2 [who ended up being a murderer] and a man we can only assume is Red John [who is a murderer/ crazy serial killer]).


Lisbon is not as straight laced as she thinks she is.


Sometimes Jane really deserves to be punched.


Patrick Jane is safe for anything short of murder.


Your supervising agent will let you date your co worker, but the big boss won't.


Sometimes the head of the CBI needs to tell the media where to stick it.


There are never any consequences if you are Patrick Jane.


It's okay to blackmail your co workers into doing what you want.


If you want to keep your relationship a secret, don't use the same shower gel.


Kristina Frye might just actually be a real psychic (or in cahoots with Red John, you can decide which is worse).


Red John likes poetry, scary masks, home movies, bloody mary's, and killing people. He dislikes copy cats, even though they (for some reason) think he's the best thing since sliced bread.


Did I mention that Cho is awesome?






The best one liners are.....


‘You're gonna die alone.’ Cho to Rigsby, Episode 2 The Scarlett Letter.

‘Semper Fi, sissy britches’ Jane, Episode 6 Black Gold and Red Blood.

‘Lisbon, I had a horrible dream. I dreamt that Jane escaped the county jail. I dreamt that the sheriff, the AG and the district super all called to yell at me. Now you're gonna wake me up, yes?’ Minelli to Lisbon, Episode 6 Black Gold and Red Blood.

‘Keep an eye on Jane. If he screws up too bad, shoot him. There's not a court in the land that would convict you.’ Minelli to Lisbon, Episode 8 His Red Right Hand.

‘Go to hell and take a toothbrush.’ Lisbon to Jane, Episode 11 Rose Coloured Glasses.

‘You're brain's a fool.’ Cho to a suspect, Episode 11 Rose Coloured Glasses.

‘Is that a useful aha or an annoying aha?’ Lisbon to Jane, Episode 11 Rose Coloured Glasses.

'I'm not the po-po, I'm the po-po consultant.' Jane, Episode 18 Aingative Baa.

‘You're the poster girl for the NRA.’ Jane to Lisbon, Episode19 Blood Money.

‘We’re like the FBI only more conveniently located.’ Cho, Episode 21 18- 5- 4.

'What are you using, dial up?' Jane to Kristina Frye, Episode 22 Red Letter.
