‘The Mentalist’ season 6, episode 22 (finale) spoilers: ‘Blue Bird,’ and Simon Baker’s moment
You have been waiting for the season finale of “The Mentalist” to come on the air for quite some time now, and on Sunday night, it will be here. At the moment, we’re just thrilled to call it the end of the season and not the series itself. The recent renewal does allow the show an opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief and build more towards something in the fall.
This episode is entitled “Blue Bird,” and before we do anything else, we figure it best to start off here by sharing the official synopsis now courtesy of CBS:
“A new lead in a cold case requires Lisbon to delay her plans to leave for Washington, D.C. with Agent Pike, giving Jane time to finally come to terms with his feelings for her and decide on a course of action.”
The major promises that we have seen when it comes to this episode are that it will offer some sort of closure for Simon Baker and Robin Tunney’s characters, and also set the stage for what the future could be for the two. There is no guarantee that they will end up together at all, but with the feelings finally being brought up, maybe they will at least consider trying to make it work.
Ultimately, this is one of the reasons that we are the most excited about there being a season 7 of the show: It allows for a chance to explore these two in a relationship, provided that this is what happens during the finale.

I hope that we will finally have closure on Jane and Lisbon “relationship” and not with a cliffhanger where it is left up to the fans interpretation ….
It would be nice to see Jane and Lisbon in Season 7 working towards developing their relationship now that they are (hopefully) together

I’m still 50-50 on the season with either Jane and Lisbon ending up together or heading in that direction. One of the reasons Lisbon wanted to move with Pike was because he showed that he loved her and wanted a future with her, so it will take something big, either Lisbon realizing that Pike isn’t who she really wants or Jane doing something to show his feelings for her to change her mind. (I mean Lisbon has shown that once she made up her mind about something she wouldn’t change it unless there was some reason.)
As for Pike’s proposal, sure it was a bit rushed, but Pike comes off as a bit over confident that things will go the way he would like them to. I mean I’m sure when he decided to ask it he assumed Lisbon would have said yes since she had just said that she would move with him. (Or at least if I were to do what Pike did, which I personally wouldn’t, that’s what I would have thought.)

I am so happy TM has been renewed for a 7th Season. Hoping that Jane realises just how much Lisbon means to him and finally decides to move on and talk about what has been keeping him stuck for so long. Pike is far to pushy for my liking. Lisbon looked like a deer in headlights when Pike asked the big question. I hope she takes her time to think about the likely consequences of what she is about to do. Love the show – so subtle and so many layers.
