The Mentalist 2X4: Red Menace

I was so upset when I thought angry girl was the killer. Everyone else liked her for the crime, so it shouldn't have been her. And then Jane was going along with it. I was not pleased. But, of course, Jane used it to his owns ends to find the actual killer. Also, I'm pretty sure I guessed the son at one point. But, when you guess everyone, it feels a lot less successful. Lol.

We've got a dead lawyer whose only client is a biker gang. When we stop over to see his wife and son, the wife guesses that he found out some information he wasn't supposed to and got killed for it. However, when we go talk to the gang, the leader has nothing but complimentary things to say about the lawyer. He insists it wasn't any of his guys.

During one of the trips to the biker bar, this crazy woman shows up and starts screaming about how the leader killed her brother. The week before, the leader had been on trial for his murder, but the now dead lawyer, got him off. The sister is convinced he killed her brother and wants justice. However, she just drives away. It takes a bit, but Van Pelt tracks her down.

She also finds out that some other woman had been calling the lawyer a lot. So we head over to talk to her. She's the leader's girlfriend and when Lisbon and Grace show up to talk to her, she hops and her bike and zooms away. Apparently Grace is some kind of race car driver and she catches up to her and makes her lay the bike down. They bring her to the station and she admits that she's been cheating on the leader with the lawyer.

We find out that the wife knew about the affair (and also that the lawyer had recently been into drugs). She claims she didn't say anything to the police about it because she thinks she and her son should be allowed to grieve with dignity.

Everyone seems to the think the crazed sister is the murderer, but we don't have any proof. Jane suggests they let her go and keep an eye on her. She's a hot head and sloppy and she'll slip up while they're watching. So Rigsby and Cho are watching the house when the biker gang shows up (presumably to kill her), but they convince them to leave.

Later, we're back at her house. Jane goes inside to get tea and looks through her things, but doesn't find anything. He tells the guys he's looked everywhere but in the trash. When Rigsby checks the trash, he finds evidence and they haul her to the station.

When she gets there, Jane has arranged for the mother and son to be there as well. The son had previously told Jane that the sister had come to their house on the day of the murder. And between that and the evidence, Jane claims she'll be going away for life. But the son doesn't want to get her in trouble, because he's actually the killer.

Turns out his dad wasn't that great of a guy. And the son lost him temper with him one night that dad was being a douche and accidentally (I think) kills him. He calls mom and she helps him cover it up.

At the end of the episode, we find out (somehow, I'm not really sure what happened here) that the leader was informing the DA about stuff (I think). And Jane exposes him as a rat and leaves him at the mercy of the club.
