Scene of The Mentalist season 4 episode 1 "SCARLET RIBBONS". This scene was simply amazing. Simon was great ;) Of course he convinced the giury! He was awesome! And you can read the sadness in his voice....but I also noticed how he became a little bit more...you know, relaxed about the whole situation. It's like he's moving on, and has realized that there's no need to freak out when it comes to Red John. He was victim, he's still a victim, but now he's also a murderer. And this still sounds creepy to me.

    If you kill a murderer, the number of murderers stays the same. Solution: kill more than one.

    He has nothing to lose because is family was murdered. So if he wants to spend the rest of his life on jail to take a monster off the this planet and then I am all for it.

    This scene was incredibly acted by Simon Baker. The raw emotion you hear in his voice when he is talking about Red John is so real and you really sense the pain and sadness in him especially when he describes exactly what Red John does to people and how he had no choice to do what he did. His expressions and reactions made it even more hard hitting and it really made Patrick become a real character and person. This is one of my favourite shows

    i wish they continued the show. Simon Baker is the best
  • @sarraazzouz2031
    simon baker is just acting so well!! he just gives the perfect emotion, he makes you feel that patrick jane is a real person with true feelings and not only a tv show character! amazing!he should have been more awarded for this!

    If someone murdered my family then only god can stop me from finding him and tearing him apart.
  • @Lwsss933
    Everytime Patrick Jane conveys his vulnerability... I can't handle it. His voice breaks and so does my heart T_T I miss this series so much.

    Lawyer here. Last line is actually prohibited in real life. Its referred to the "Golden Rule." Asking the jury to depart from neutrality and make it personal is a big no no.
  • @Furykidxxx
    House M.D. and The Mentalist are the best shows EVER!

    I feel like the words ' I'm not guilty of killing Timothy Carter because Timothy Carter doesn't exist' and Red John killed my family what would you do are what caused Jane to literally get away with murder. They didn't want to find him guilty cause they could see themselves doing the same thing and Jane gave them a loop hole.
  • @dexzanot
    the 'what would you do' make the whole scene that much more powerful
  • @Good_Burrito
    I never noticed that when he talked about red John's actions, he wasn't using the past tense. In other words, he spoke about red John as if he was still alive. This whole time and I never even noticed that even in the trial you can see that he knows red John is still alive

    "Captain Ahab dies right ? Yeah but so does the whale !" remember revenge doesnt come cheap
  • @iamBlackGambit
    Notice how it's just one shot as he speaks..camera doesnt show the courtrooms reaction as hes talking, it's just on him..hes the main focus and I love that about this scene!!
  • @neilzaza1501
    What a powerful speech. The music accompanies it brilliantly, and Simon conveys his emotions simply and better than ever. Amazing scene.
  • @theweissman7475
    The "What would you do?" is so gently spoken but so powerfully delivered
  • @JamesRhed935
    As far as I remember, Jane has only killed 3 times in the show, the first was when he shotgunned that a guy who was about to kill Lisbon, second time is when he killed the person he though was Red John, and the third was when he killed the real Red John
