The Mentalist is so ludicrous sometimes you wonder if the writers even try to keep it realistic. This week, Jane escapes from jail using a mouse and fake injuring, and then solves the crime. Then Lisbon saves him by blackmailing Bosco, in the process revealing that something happened 8 years ago.
The crime itself is never that important and usually gets resolved by Jane through an illegal confession. As long as theres a dead body, Jane can make an interesting story about it even if it is a straightforward murder. Without Jane, the team can't catch murderers as they proved this week. They need the masterful Jane to spot all the evidence and corner the villains.
It was interesting to see how far Lisbon would go to protect Jane. I think Jane will pry into Lisbon or Bosco's past and find out dirty secrets. Jane's sense of morality is so fluid that he'll do whatever he wants to suit himself, and someone will be pissed.
Score: 9.4/10
