The end of the Red John 's novel is not so bad as many people say. I've seen this episode more than once and i think that the events were ok, there was action, mistery, a final twist with Bertram's death. McAllister was Red John and the evidence is there, during seasons: "he is mac.....", he smells like woods, is tall, not fat or thin, old enough to kill during the Red barn, a sheriff friend to another cop Dumar, the one who killed Rebecca in His right red hand and made her smile before dying, as a sheriff he has links to the complete Blake org and to go anywhere without raising susp and the stalk to Van Pelt in episode two.
Patrick Jane had his revenge and his plan worked. But something is missing: we did not see Mcallister kill someone, we had no answers about the list, Kristina Frye, the link to Visualize, about leaving Lisbon safe in The desert rose, etc. We saw Mcallister begging for life, and do you remember Panzer? That's was the way the serial killer behaves, the way he acts, he wont beg, he wont surrender, he will stay strong, cold, and think he's great. During Strawberry and cream, the same, Timothy Carter was perfect, was cruel but normal, was cold. We did not see a serial killer in the episode, we saw a smart man. Why not show a flashback about what happened to Kristina Frye? And show us a real bad, cruel Thomas McAllister.
I mean the chain of events was good, but we expected answers and we expected a stronger Red John. And something else: the FBI would never leave Patrick Jane for free, so that part does not make sense, even with the team defending him. That's why i left two points less, i wont punish the whole chapter, i can't, i Just can give my thoughts.
