The Mentalist 4X8: Pink Tops
Added 2025-10-17 19:00:07 +0000 UTCUndercover cop Yolanda Herrera is found dead with two shots to the back of her head. She was investigating drug dealer Omar Vega (Kamar de los Reyes) and was looking for his current base of operation.
Cho picks up smart-mouthed Summer (Samaire Armstrong), who is caught using Yolanda's credit card at a hotel and who was also the person who anonymously called in the shooting. Looking for a deal, Summer tells the team that Vega was looking for more product (cocaine) and revenge after his base was busted by the Perry boys two days before the murder.
Meanwhile, Jane uncovers Yolanda's cousin, Elvia (Gina Rodriguez), was at the club trying to find out if Yolanda was having an affair or working with the Perry boys.
They find a deserted house, suspecting it to be where the Perry boys are, but find them dead and drug traces but no drugs.
Jane creates an elaborate plan where he flicks a sample of cocaine from the Narcotics Task Force and offers Vega a deal. Vega tells him that Officer Bianca Trotter (Yolanda's best friend and an undercover cop herself) made him the same deal. She confesses to having killed Yolanda after Yolanda suspected a dirty cop was in their unit and tried framing the Perry boys for it.
Elsewhere, Cho and Summer strike an unusual rapport and Cho decides to hire her as his confidential informant.
