The Mentalist 3X22: Rhapsody in Red
Added 2025-09-24 18:00:14 +0000 UTCThe Northern California Symphony Orchestra comes under investigation when one of its first chair violinists, Eleanor Artega, is found shot to death at a bus stop. A single petal of a hydrangea flower is found at the crime scene.
Investigations reveal that Eleanor was from a tough neighbourhood and had recently had a falling out with her controlling mother. Her mother had been Eleanor's manager and had forced Eleanor to get a restraining order against her gang member boyfriend.
In the Orchestra, Eleanor's place is taken by the second chair violinist. Jane plants a rumour that the maestro was having an affair with Eleanor to reveal the real killer.
Meanwhile, Cho has his hands full when he has to deal with Anthony Rome, a bright and talented young pickpocket.
****This was the third episode in a row that I LOVED the B storyline as much as (or maybe more) than the actual storyline. You guys. CHO LAUGHED. It was disconcerting. And I loved it.
