This episode falls in the writer's category: we couldn't think of anything else. Ted Fisher hid $2 million belonging to an Iraqi family who wanted his help to immigrate to the United States. Who cares who killed him, he put a target on his own back! Why a massive rug? It is not the easiest thing to sell. I understand Jane's desire to kill Red John but hiring a criminal known to the CBI to break into LaRoche's home to find some leverage - an unopened, duct-taped Tupperware container in his safe - only to be caught and force Jane to find a way to drop the charges...it is all too silly. I already knew that Jane's knowledge of the Tupperware container is all he needs to help find the CBI mole. In this episode, Jane wastes a lot of time (not unusual for him) figuring out how to help the criminal he hired to escape from jail only for the criminal to refuse and then demand the charges be dropped or he will rat out Jane. I call it "Fun with Jane Time" but it usually has nothing to do with solving the case. I don't watch crime dramas for comedy...or silliness. I like an intriguing mystery with a clever solution but the writers and producers of this show never prioritized that. I really only like this show because of the Red John mythology.
