‘The Mentalist’ season 6, episode 18 preview: Simon Baker’s country-club fun
Next week’s new episode of “The Mentalist” is entitled “Forest Green,” and based on what we’ve seen from the promo below and read from the synopsis, this is going to be more of an hour about people who have a very blue-sky philosophy on things. Patrick Jane is visiting a country club!
Just the idea of seeing Simon Baker’s character interacting with the 1% should be entertaining, since these are people who are very accustomed to a certain way of doing things. As for Jane, he always follows his own beaten path.
Now, we turn to the aforementioned synopsis:
“When a woman is found murdered near a remote men’s social club, Jane must find a way to insinuate himself into the insular group to find the killer.”
It’s rather sad in a way that there is not too much more to discuss when it comes to the show right now, but that is just the way that “The Mentalist” operates from time to time. Another thing to keep in close consideration right now is that the show doesn’t want to give away any of its major shockers.
For those of you (like us) who do root for Jane and Lisbon, you do have to have some hope now that the pairing may actually be happening on the show now! Remember that “goodnight, Teresa” line? That has to be a step in the right direction. We just hope that the writers made the move to give us an additional moment before the end of the story, since we are otherwise going to be completely nuts if that doesn’t happen and we’re just left with what we have now.

What I want to see on what I hope is the season finale and not the series finale is for Jane and Lisbon to profess their love for each other. I want them to realize they are in love with each other and that they can’t imagine their lives without each other in it. I don’t think they are ready yet for a big romantic kiss, just a strong and loving hug. Jane needs to “court” Lisbon. Prove to her that she can trust him and that he will always be honest with her and prove that he is ready to take off his wedding ring and move on. He needs to prove to Lisbon that she won’t be living in the shadow of his murdered wife. Prove that he is ready to be happy with her and let go of the sad past. I believe one reason she was one of his demands is because he knows he can’t live happily without her.
And CBS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RENEW THE MENTALIST!!! It and its fans deserve more seasons of it. There are so many more stories to tell, but please get rid of Agent Fisher. She just doesn’t work.
