Added 2026-01-14 19:00:14 +0000 UTCIn her attempt to find Red John's role in her sister Miranda's death, Lorelei Martins goes rogue and tries to hunt Red John herself. She shoots and kills the manager of a battered-women's shelter for information on her sister's death.
Agent Bob Kirkland (Kevin Corrigan) from Homeland Security contacts Lisbon to join forces in their hunt for Lorelei. Regretting Lorelei's violent spree, Jane is forced to re-evaluate his part in her escape with Lisbon.
The team investigate Miranda's death leading them to find discrepancies in the records of the battered-home shelter where Miranda stayed briefly. They realise that Lorelei is after another member of the shelter home to exact information on Miranda's death.
Jane, forced to stay back at the CBI office by Lisbon, discovers that Lorelei will go after Jason Lennon (Christopher Cousins) identifying his fishing habits and connecting them to the fishing string that was used to bound Miranda. He reaches Lennon before Lisbon as Lorelei incapacitates Rigsby who had been stationed outside Lennon's home.
As Lorelei tortures him, Lennon beg for mercy but confronted by Jane's evidence, he laughs and tells them Red John asked him to bring him Miranda and killed her. Jane refers to his deal with Lorelei where she has confirmation of Red John's involvement and would turn herself in but she calls it off and as she is leaving she tells Jane to ask Lennon about Red John as Lennon is weaker. She kisses Patrick one last time and then shoots Lennon as she escapes.
Jane is able to keep Lennon alive who is taken to hospital and is in a coma. Homeland Security take over his security.
Two weeks later, Jane is called by Lisbon to a crime scene where they find Lorelei murdered by Red John. Jane reflects that though he is sorry, she had it coming.
