Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaJames Smithson, after whom the victim was named, was a rich Englishman who left his estate to the United States to found what is now known as the Smithsonian Institution.
- GoofsWhen Lainie tell Jane she is doing a project on ancient Egyptian death mythology Jane tells her that they believed that when a person dies they are "carried to the next life on the back of a sacred hippo". This is completely made up and rather silly. The Egyptians believed you had to earn your place in the Afterlife, it was a long and trying journey, riddled with demons and tests to stop the dead reaching their goal. Egyptians tried to win the favour of a god who would aid them on their journey.
- Quotes
Patrick Jane: You should stop worrying. It's gonna be fine with the new boss. Sure there's going to be a settling in period when she probes your psyche for weakness. But once that's out of the way...
Teresa Lisbon: Would you stop? You're being childish. I think you're the one who's nervous.
Patrick Jane: Ooo. That sounds perceptive. Let me think about that... No. I find that I'm not. It's definitely you.

The Cleopatra's Wedding Ring
When the expensive British private teacher James Smithson is found brain-dead shot in the head in the mansion of the photographer Hooper Banks, the CBI team is assigned to investigate the case. The responsible for the security of the estate is the former Rigsby's colleague from the police Victor Bandino. Soon Patrick Jane finds a small red box on the floor and discloses that Smithson is using fake name and curriculum, and having affair with the mothers of his students. When the Scotland Yard detective Francis Slocombe is brought to the CBI after chasing the car of Lisbon and Patrick, they learn that the real name of the teacher is Oliver Stans, who stole Cleopatra's wedding ring and moved to California to sell to a dealer. With a great list of suspects with motive to kill Oliver, Patrick Jane plots a plan to catch the killer.
"The Red Box" is a great episode of "The Mentalist", with many twists in the plot. There are many suspects with motive to kill the private teacher and the plan plotted by Patrick Jane to catch the killer is funny. My vote is eight.
