Mentalist Recap – Season 2, Episode 7 – Red Bulls – air date 11/12/09. In this episode Jane and the CBI team are investigating the kidnapping of a California heiress. In a strange twist of events, Jane ends up (willingly) working with Bosco on the case. Small agenda of the Red John files here.

Kidnappers turn out to be drug dealers going for bigger money through kidnapping … and then there is the interesting connection between the husband of the sister of the kidnap victim and drug use.

Along the way Van Pelt is shot three times through her Kevlar vest, causing Rigsby to see his life flashing before his eyes. Well, anyway, he goes after the shooter himself, and takes her down.

Interesting growth in the Van Pelt/Rigsby relationship, in the Lisbon/Bosco relationship, and in Bosco as an individual. If you want to know if Jane got to see Bosco’s updated Rd John file … well, you will have to watch the show! (They are available on line.)
