**This is my second time watching this episode because I decided to finally watch the series from beginning to end. It is still as good as first time I watched it maybe even a little bit better.
**Patrick Jane & Theresa Lisbon have chemistry from the jump. I loved when he gave her that origami at the end that made her smile, which made him smile.

**Of course, Jane would be great at poker.
**That guy put his wife up to gamble away... I mean talk about having a problem with gambling.
**Lisbon never allows herself to enjoy anything. At least, the guys kept their expensive gifts.
**Lisbon & Jane relationship is so cute. I love her reaction when he gave her the green necklace & later tells her that it matches her eyes when she says she does not want it.
**I am glad in the end that the daughter realized that her father loved her because she found out he died protecting her. - DirectorMartha MitchellStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangA wealthy woman is killed in a hit-and-run. The investigation leads the CBI to a psychic woman the victim regularly visited, whom Patrick, being an ex-psychic himself, suspects of being a con woman.8.0
**It was that lady psychic a fake or not because I have not the faintest clue & I seen this episode 2 or 3 time now.
**I felt so heart-broken for Jane when the lady psychic gave him a "message" from his dead family because he broke down in tears.
**There is something about this episode that I do not really like... probably the psychic lady trying to best Jane.

A man in prison claims that he has information about Red John & he wants to use that information in exchange for Jane proving his innocence.
The CBI does not want Jane working the case so he quits, which makes Lisbon heartbroken. Well, the look in her eyes was devastating. I love Jane's & Lisbson's relationship.
The whole team stands by Jane because... you know... they are a ride or die team. I love how they stand as one against the CBI head. In the end, he gave them a way out so that they can help Jane.
Jane is so desperate to get Red John. I want him to get him so bad in this episode, but it would be so short. I mean, it is only in the first season.
After Jane gets the dude out of jail, he double-crosses Jane & does not tell him the Red John information. Red John kills the guy that was in prison & gloats to Jane by laughing on the phone. This bastards needs to be killed. - DirectorDean WhiteStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangA young football talent in a small town is found dead, apparently killed in a black magic sacrifice ritual, and the center of the investigation becomes a self-proclaimed Wicca whose cat was allegedly tortured and killed by the victim.7.5

Who would have thought that Cho is a natural ladies man? There is a man who is a damn creep in here & he gets the ladies... I wonder how though because he is not cute.
The person that I am attracted to is Patrick Jane... something about a tortured soul who covers his pain up with humor is attractive... in a tv show. As for in real life, I run the other way. Haha. - DirectorPaul HolahanStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangA wealthy jewelry designer is poisoned at a party and the CBI's investigation uncovers the double lives of a number of people around her.7.4
The way Simon Baker revealed the killer was unconventional, but effective. - DirectorChris LongStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangPatrick is temporarily blinded by a bomb blast just before the CBI are called in to investigate the murder of a stock-broker.7.0
Jane is temporarily blind when a bomb goes off & has to use his other senses to solve a case. Van Pelt has a new love interest & Rigsby is jealous. Not my favorite episode... but this episode shows that a certain someone has a knack for picking the wrong people to like. - DirectorKevin DowlingStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangThe Attorney General receives some strange email, CBI is ordered to investigate.

After having two really good episodes in a row, I knew a dud was coming. I felt as though the team did not interact as much here & the case did not draw my interest. Also, it was way too obvious who the killer was. With all the miscues, this episode was good enough because of Jane's charm. - DirectorAdam KaneStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangAn ex-mobster in the Witness Protection Program is found executed. The mafia is the prime suspect, so Patrick socializes with its leader.8.0
Jane toying with a mafia man's feelings. Haha. - DirectorMartha MitchellStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangWhile investigating the murder of a C.E.O., Patrick matches wits with a sexy con artist who was trying to get her hands on his secret stash of millions of dollars.7.4
I wished Jane let the con woman go. I wanted her to outwit him... that never happens because I usually always want Jane to win. - DirectorJohn PolsonStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangA teenage boy's murder appears to be related to a secret group he belonged to at an unorthodox school for troubled teens.7.7
The teacher is a pervert & I cannot stand the real killer... that smug SOB. This episode reminded me of one of the episodes from season 1 of Bones. - DirectorChris LongStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangA victim is discovered in a park deliberately disposed of in CBI jurisdiction with evidence that Red John is involved. The team learns there may be another victim, and suspects Red John is luring Jane.9.0
Jane & Lisbon have a very intense moment because he tells her straight up that Red John is his. Of course, I agree with Jane because he deserves his justice. Since it is the first season, it is wishful thinking to hope that Jane would finally get Red John... until next season I guess.
A dark Jane is the best, but Lisbon hates it. You can tell she cares so much for him.
