    Déjàvu

    Patrick Jane believes the serial-killer is seeking out a psychic, and his colleagues convince him to pose as a renowned psychic in TV and radio shows. Out of the blue, he is contacted by a man named Lazarus to discuss the case in a radio show. When Patrick leaves the station with a FBI agent, he is abducted by the serial-killer Lazarus, whose real name is Joe Keller Jr. The man wants Patrick to communicate with the spirits of his deceased father. Patrick uses all his skills to lure the guy and try to escape.

    "Brown Shag Carpet" is an excellent episode of "The Mentalist", with Patrick Jane living a déjàvu of his con-artist days. The conclusion, with Lisbon arriving a minute before the explosion, is a great cliffhanger. My vote is nine.

    Title (Brazil): "Brown Shag Carpet"

    • Quotes

      Kimball Cho: This is Rick Tork from the Santa Fe office. He's gonna help out while we're shorthanded.

      Rick Tork: Hey.

      Dennis Abbott: Dennis Abbott. Thanks for coming. So, how long were you in Santa Fe?

      Rick Tork: Uh, just a year. I started out at CBI, made the jump the federal side about the same time as Cho.

      Kimball Cho: And he's worked with Jane before.

      Rick Tork: Enough to know the score.

      Dennis Abbott: And what's that?

      Rick Tork: He'll never tell you what he's up to; whatever he does, you'll look like an idiot; and always keep your hand on your wallet.

      Dennis Abbott: Well, you do know the man.
