The Competition
claudio_carvalho21 December 2021
During a competition among chefs, chef Jeffrey Barge dies, and the CBI assume the investigation. In principle, they suspect of the competitors, since the award is one hundred thousand dollars; his estranged wife Abigail Barge joins the list; and also, the promoter Bertram Duesterberg, since Jeffrey was poisoned. But when chef Julia St. Germain also dies poisoned, Patrick Jane plots a trap to catch the killer in a lunch party.

"Red Herring" is another witty episode of "The Mentalist", with a plot with many twists where every suspect might be the killer. As usual, Patrick Jane plots a scheme to catch the responsible for the deaths. My vote is seven.

Enjoyable mandatory chef/poisoning plot episode

Warning: Spoilers
Enjoyable episode. Just one thing had me wondering. Wouldn't dosing Julia's pepper with the liquid ricin made the powdered pepper all lumpy and sticky? Imho it would so it would have been impossible to sprinkle pepper from that shaker in a normal way and it would have given away to Julia that something was amiss with that pepper.
