The Mentalist 

Season 1

The Mentalist tells the story of Patrick Jane, an independent consultant with the California Bureau of Investigation (CBI), who has a remarkable track record for solving serious crimes by using his razor sharp skills of observation. He also makes frequent use of his mentalist abilities to lead witnesses or offenders into offering the actual facts of the case, as known only to them.

Within the Bureau, Jane is notorious for his blatant lack of protocol and his semi-celebrity past as a psychic medium, whose paranormal abilities he now admits he feigned. Jane's role in cracking a series of tough high-profile cases is greatly valued by his fellow agents.

However, no-nonsense Senior Agent Teresa Lisbon openly resists having Jane in her unit and alternates between reluctantly acknowledging Jane's usefulness and blasting him for his theatrics, narcissism and dangerous lack of boundaries. Lisbon's team includes agents Kimball Cho, Wayne Rigsby, and rookie member Grace Ban Pelt, who all think Jane is a loose cannon but admire his charm and knack for clearing cases.

Main Characters

Recurring Characters

The first series of this crime drama finds Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) a former psychic, adjusting to his new job as a consultant for the California Bureau of Investigation. Jane's not big on following proper procedure, much to the chagrin of his boss, Agent Teresa Lisbon (Robin Tunney), but his keen powers of observation help them solve cases. Cases involving elusive serial killer Red John are of particular interest to Jane, because this killer murdered his wife and young daughter a few years prior. Some cases this series include the poisoning death of a country-club socialite and the murder of a Hollywood producer.

 

Season 2 

After failing to capture Red John last season, Jane's search for his nemesis continues in season two. In the opening episode, the Red John case is taken away from Lisbon's team and given to CBI Agent Sam Bosco. However, Jane's persistance to follow Bosco's investigation lands him in jail. After his release, Bosco and his team are murdered by Red John and the case is given back to Lisbon. When a Red John copycat strikes in the season finale, the CBI comes to suspect students at a university campus. Jane is kidnapped by the copcats, only to be rescued by an unlikely saviour. 

In the second series of this crime drama, Jane (Simon Baker) briefly considers leaving the CBI, but he decides to stay on. This decision proves beneficial to Lisbon (Robin Tunney), because Jane helps her when she's named the prime suspect in a homicide case involving a criminal she put away years ago. Meanwhile, Cho (Tim Kang) confronts his dark past as a gang member when he investigates the murder of one of his form gang members. This series also explores the budding romance between Van Pelt (Amanda Righetti) and Rigsby (Owain Yeoman), who do their best to try and hide their new relationship from their coworkers.

 

Season 3

In the third season, Jane comes to suspect a mole inside the CBI, who is working for Red John. When a Red John associate is set on fire in his jail cell and a CBI agent is framed as being Red John's mole, Jane devises a plan to lure out the real culprit. In the season finale, the identity of the mole is discovered and Jane comes face-to-face with a man claiming to be Red John. The third season also reveals information about the characters' pasts, including Rigsby's relationship with his father and Jane's attempt to prove his brother-in-law's innocence of a crime. 

The third series of this crime drama features some trying times for many of the main characters: Lisbon (Robin Tunney) gets injured; Van Pelt (Amanda Righetti) almost loses her job; and Jane (Simon Baker) gets kidnapped. Jane also has another run-in with cult leader Bret Stiles (Malcolm McDowell), who gives him some info on serial killer Red John. Later, an incarcerated man reveals a connection to Red John, and Jane then becomes a suspect in that man's death, which is investigated by J.J.LaRoche 

 

Season 4

Season 4 picks up directly after last season's cliffhanger. Jane faces murder charges after he kills a man he suspects to be Red John, while the rest of the CBI team help prove his innocence, despite being under suspension. The end of the episode sees Jane's immediate release and his discovery that the man he killed was not his nemisis. The rest of the season deals with the FBI's investigation into Red John after he is tricked into murdering another serial killer for Jane. Van Pelt also deals with the aftermath of her fiance's death, who attempted to kill her on Red John's orders. At the end of the season Jane seemingly sinks into a depressed state and quits the CBI, revealed later to be a part of a ruse to capture Red John, a plan which ultimately backfires. 

The fourth series of this crime drama opens with an incarcerated Jane (Simon Baker) attempting to defend himself in court against murder charges. At the end of the trial, he divulges an important secret to Lisbon (Robin Tunney). Meanwhile, Cho (Tim Kang) wants to keep his new romance a secret

 

Season 5

The CBI arrest Red John accomplice, Lorelei Martins, following the season four finale, only to have her taken from them by the FBI. Jane enlists the help of cult leader Bret Stiles to break Martins out of prison, so that she can tell him Red John's true identity. However, while Lorelei refuses to reveal her master's true identity, she tells Jane that they have met before. The rest of the season follows Jane's quest to narrow down the list of everyone he has met and shaken hands with following the murder of his wife and daughter. By the end of the season, he is armed with a list of just seven names. 

This key character will be present for a few episodes in this season. In episode 8, Jane managed to bring her out of prison with the help of the ‘Visualize’ boss, Brett Stiles. Lorelei revealed Jane that Red John is someone he knows, since he already shook hands with him. In episode 16, things got complicated between Jane and Lisbon since she seemed to already know that Jane brought Lorelei out of prison. Lorelei wanted to get revenge against Red John because he killed her sister. Jane wanted to help her so she could tell him who’s Red John. But Lorelei had it coming... she died and Jane stood with no name. The episode also showed two further accomplices of Red John: Julia Howard and Jason Lennon. Lorelei killed Julia at the beginning of the episode, then she shot Jason before he could possibly reveal Jane Red John’s identity.

But Patrick Jane is still a mourning man. Episode 2 brilliant brought this aspect out when he drank belladonna and started having hallucinations about his dead daughter – maybe was she also his conscience’s voice? Almost ten years wasted chasing after Red John and Jane didn’t find him. His obsession for Red John became more evident during this season, but he also discovered a lot of things about his enemy. After Lorelei said to Jane he’d already known Red John, he started to narrow down a list of possible suspects. In episode 13, he also learned Red John was a member of ‘Visualize’ in ‘80s.

Teresa Lisbon had her storyline during this season. Lisbon found herself obsessed with Tommy Volker, a multi millionaire who’s also the mastermind behind some homicides. In episode 7, Lisbon wanted to get revenge on a girl who’s been strangled to death, so she started her hunt for Volker, since she had her suspicion on him. Her hunt will be concluded in episode 12, with his arrest.

Lisbon also started discovering feelings for Jane. According to Bruno Heller, that “Love you” Jane told Lisbon in season 4 finale before shooting her, won’t be forgotten.

The “partner” thing is one important feature in Jane and Lisbon’s relationship: even when she got the chance to have a job promotion (episode 13), she refused because she loves her team – and being partner with Patrick Jane. He also showed her his attic with all the cases connected to Red John. In episode 20, the two were exchanged for a couple, and Jane replied “Ours is more a platonic love.” He may feels something for her, but until he won’t catch Red John, he won’t be able to have a real relationship with his lovely partner.

Wayne Rigsby had an interesting face-to-face with his dad in episode 4. When they finally seemed to get along after a very long time, Mr Rigsby got shot and died afterwards. This would impact Rigsby’s personal life when he will have an open confrontation with Grace Van Pelt, his partner and his former girlfriend. The authors had to give a storyline to Van Pelt, since the actress who’s playing her, Amanda Righetti, got pregnant during this season. So, they decided to make her leave CBI for a couple of episodes (15-16-17) with the excuse she had to attend computer classes far from Sacramento. During her absence, Rigsby found in Cho a good confident, and he realized he’s still in love with Van Pelt. In episode 20, when Rigsby and Van Pelt went undercover to find a killer in a radio station, they got the chance to talk about their past relationship and they realized they’re still in love with each other.

 

Season 6

Laying low on an unnamed island where the extradition treaties work in his favor, Jane trots out deplorable Spanish, irks the locals with his refusal to drink coffee, gets fitted for custom shirts (minus epaulets) and runs afoul of the neighborhood drug mule.

During the sixth series of this crime drama, Jane (Simon Baker) keeps narrowing down his list of Red John suspects, and at one point he even manages to gather all of the suspects together. An explosion disrupts things, but after 10 years of relentlessly pursuing this very personal case, Jane finally uncovers his wife and daughter's killer. The show then does a two-year jump in time and finds Jane living a serene life on an island, but he's eventually pulled back into using his skills to help solve crimes. However, he's now assisting the FBI instead of the CBI, and he's reporting to Special Agent Dennis Abbott (Rockmond Dunbar). He also works closely with Special Agent Kim Fischer (Emily Swallow), but he refuses to co-operate until they recruit Lisbon (Robin Tunney) to join their team as well.

 

Season 7

The seventh and final season of The Mentalist continues with the story of psychic-turned-consultant Patrick Jane, as we see him and Senior Agent Teresa Lisbon try to keep their relationship a secret. Storylines in this last season include Lisbon going undercover as a prison inmate, an attempt to track down jewel thieves, the return of serial killer "Lazarus", blackmail, assassination and a wedding.
