Patrick (Simon Baker) brings Lisbon (Robin Tunney) coffee with his tea and she wants to really know what he thinks about her leaving, but the only comment Patrick makes is that she'll find it boring in DC. She can't believe that's all he said. Well she will, it's true cos he won't be there! Just then two men walk in and hand them over subpoenas as well as one for Fischer (Emily Swallow) when she asks what's happening. A Grand Jury has been convened to see if they can indict Patty for Red John, aka Thomas McAllister's murder.
Lisbon and Fischer are asked questions about if they think he killed him and what he said about it, where he was and whilst they don't really want to answer, Lisbon pleads the Fifth about three times especially when she's asked questions about Patrick and if he killed him, ending with "gotta hell." Obviously she had nothing to say when it came to her two years of waiting around for him and also on the events of Red John's death. Back at the office, Patrick is already there reading his book and they're surprised to see him. Though Lisbon does get angry when she finds out from Abbott (Rockmond Dunbar) that it's a sting, a con she calls it, but Patty calls it a sting. They're after a mobster named Acardo (Johnathan LaPaglia) and they think he paid off some of the Grand Jury to ensure he doesn't get indicted. So Patrick will be questioned by the prosecutor, Lydia Faulk (Merle Dandridge) and see if he can pick out which ones have been bought off. Lisbon refuses to tell him what she said, though it'll be in the transcript.
I said see if he can, but of course he will be able to. He points out things to the jurors such as one having close set eyes, another one should make up with his son, one woman likes reading love stories and would love an illicit engagement (maybe talking about himself there with Lisbon, ha). One he claims is self obsessed since he's looking at his new leather jacket. Lydia asks Patrick questions about where he murdered Red John and Patrick replies, it's not proven he was 'murdered'. He could have strangled and shot himself, which made me burst out laughing, cos she didn't realize he was playing her. Patrick believes it's the Lydia who's been bought off by Acardo.
Abbot fills the rest of the team in on Acardo and how he was at a restaurant where one of his Vic's, Elijah, was murdered. He suggests Lisbon take Patrick there and have dinner on the FBI. Of course Patrick would be only too happy to oblige especially considering it gives him a chance to be alone with Lisbon. The restaurant owner, Aurelio (Tony Amendola) thinks they're a couple as he comments on how Patrick could bare to be away from her. Which they both must be thinking. But they got to sit down close and stare into each other's eyes, ahh to be that close to Patty and still each was evading the real question and not coming clean about their feelings. Of course it wouldn't be that easy especially since the momentum of their emotions needs to be kept up and taking us along for the ride too. They order the most expensive bottle of wine and Patrick asks Aurelio about the mobsters that used to dine here, including Acardo, to which he doesn't answer.
Pike (Pedro Pascal) wants Lisbon to watch Casablanca er, one of my fave movies and she hasn't seen it. She's too interested in the magazine, more like bored, and Pike knows something's troubling her. She doesn't talk about it but he tells he to take as long as she wants to make up her mind. They watch the movie which he tells her is about a woman who has to decide between two men, that was a bit simplistic, but that's close to Lisbon's heart. But think she's already made up her mind in her heart that it's gotta be Patty but neither will be honest about it. They decide to watch baseball instead!
Patrick has Wylie (Joe Adler) go over the evidence from the shooting and asks him which piece of evidence is most relative, but he's not into all the trace and fibres stuff. He then asks him which one is the most out of place. Hey Patty been at this for so long you don't need an explanation as to what trace is. Wylie picks up a coat since there was no evidence on it, no GSR etc. Patrick finds a hole inside the lining and thinks if they can find who the coat belongs to then they will have evidence against Acardo. That was also a little simplistic, as for having no evidence on the coat, cos in the end the coat is thrown to the floor for the money to be taken out of it, but there was no soil or other trace on it.
Fischer takes the coat to Elijah's mother, Mrs Macy (Alison Martin) who says it's not his cos he's allergic to wool. Patrick concludes the only way they'll get any evidence to prove Lydia is dirty is to prove Acardo is guilty of the crime itself. To this end he sets himself up as the intended Vic. Abbott asks about his time with Lisbon and he says her fish was good. Abbot asks if he's going to just let her get away. Patrick also asks Lisbon what he's done wrong since she's not really opening up to him, oh wonder why that is. But Pike comes in and they leave. Took a long time waiting for that lift to arrive. Oh man don't you just wanna cry those soppy looks Patty was giving Lisbon just got a lump in my throat everytime I looked at him!
Fischer and Patrick go to his nightclub and Patrick plans to make him jealous by going after his woman, something that belongs to him. Story of Patty's life, ha, he should just take Lisbon from Pike. He bumps into Brandy (Brianne Davis) and takes her bracelet, which he helps her find after she shows him her glitter body cream. He tells her he'd buy her Cartier and drinks champagne as he dances with her. Acardo wants him to leave her alone but he says he's Patrick Jane and will be convicted soon but he wants to spend a night with her and she can tell him all about it. Patrick then tells the crowd that he's going to be killed by him when he leaves cos Acardo's a murderer and a drug dealer. Fischer leaves and also bumps into Acardo.
Acardo goes for dinner with Brandy at the restaurant and gives Aurelio the coat that one of his men is wearing. He takes the coat to the hitman and leaves it on the ground. Cutting the lining open, he reveals money inside and the hitman is shot, as Fischer is also shot. Patrick shows them the note with his name on it. That's how he orders his hits. Patrick turns up at the restaurant with his coat on and Acardo chokes on his food. So Patrick has to save him too. Aurelio agrees to testify against him cos he threatened to kill him and leave his wife a widow but he won't leave his restaurant.
Patrick turn sup at Lisbon's with cannoli which Aurelio's wife has made and Pike answers the door. Funny Patrick had to ask for Lisbon considering it was her house and he didn't invite him in, neither did she. She takes the canolli and Patrick tells her he hopes that whatever she decides he hopes she'll be happy, that all he wants is for her to be happy. Oh boy, the emotions and Lisbon in tears and Patty just about. Words fail me right now!
But having Pike turn up at every moment wasn't doing Patty's case for Lisbon any good, especially at one point where Pike tells him Patrick did the right thing and what any father would do. But even Abbot knows there's something between them and Patrick having to tell him he's not letting Lisbon go, well it sure feels like he is. What was nice was how Patrick told Lisbon he knows everything she'll do and she replies she'll try and surprise him one day and can't wait to see that, even if they are dragging this out. But at least I can be happy whilst writing this knowing for sure there'll be as season 7! Yes! Patrick telling her she's too predictable means he must be confident that in the end she will stay whether or not he must declare his feelings for her. Cos you know what, he's still wearing his wedding ring since he hasn't found the right woman to take it off for and she must be Lisbon!
The other story of the girls being abducted also continues with Cho (Tim Kang) on the case. They gather more evidence from the cabin and Abbot is overwhelmed with the smell from there. As everyone leaves, Cho hears a noise and finds Daniela (Zuleyka Silver) there. She shows him her sister's tag and there's still no leads on her. Back at the office, she looks through photos and Patrick asks her how she's doing. He notices the heart tattoo one her hand and asks her if she's right handed which means she didn't draw it on herself. he says they all had one, at least most of them and they had a blood test taken, but they don't know why. She's frustrated at nothing being done and throws the drink bottle and file onto the floor. Cho reassures her it's not her fault but she knows it is, she convinced Amy they would model.
Cho is following up the lead on the blood test kits that were found at the cabin and this leads them to a company supplying them to hospitals. Cho finds they're very common and used for home blood testing. Wylie finds a bow and arrow insignia on one of the boxes and after doing some research finds that one of the hospitals listed as a customer isn't open anymore. Abbott and Cho find it's been used recently and hear a generator. When Cho opens the freezer door, they find DBs and Cho finds a girl with a heart tattoo on hr hand, whose heart has been removed. They're removing the girl's organs.
At least the continuation of this story was a break between the very tense scenes between Lisbon and Patrick though I could watch Patty being romantic and failing a lot all day! Let's hope she makes the right decision and stays cos it would be good to watch how their relationship works out next season and whether they can make a go of it. Still 'The White Table' translated, was a good ep to watch and shows that the show hasn't really lost that old touch.
This conversation says it all really and summed up their scenes perfectly! SO sweet and yet they do know what a girl wants to hear, Patty cos he's been married and Lisbon cos she isn't really a novice when it comes to dating and love!
Lisbon: "You always know what I'm gonna do, huh?"
Patrick: "Mostly."
Lisbon: "One of these days, I might surprise you."
Patrick: "Please don't. I love that you're predictable."
Lisbon: "Just what a girl wants to hear."
Patrick: "What does a girl want to hear?"
Lisbon: "I wish I knew."
Be still my heart! That's my line! Ha.
