Episode Review The Mentalist Pink Chanel Suit
The episode starts with the funeral of Federal Judge Fitz-William's mother in progress. Noticing her daughter is not at the funeral, Judge Fitz-William requests her other daughter Sophie to find out where she is. Sophie arrives in Abbey's bedroom and lets out a scream as she uncovers Abbey's boyfriend dead on the bedroom floor. He had been stabbed in the back with a knife.
Agent Lisbon (Robin Tunney) and agent Cho (Tim Kang) arrive on the scene with Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) nowhere to be found. As they investigate the murder of Sophie's boyfriend Austin the team realizes that Abbey hasn't yet been located. Because the estate belongs to a high ranking federal judge the entire property has been under extreme scrutiny by the security team. According to the head of security nobody saw Abbey leave the property after she check in the previous morning. This of course confuses the team as they believe Abbey to be a suspect in the murder.
Patrick Jane shows up more than fashionably late as usual, making a scene with the security guard as he questions why he needs to go through the metal detector. Jane insists that the head of security go through the metal detector as well, and as he does Jane keeps putting metal items in his pockets. This was a very funny scene.
The crowd is shocked when Patrick Jane announces that Abbey has most likely been murdered and is hidden somewhere on the estate. He confirms this after he tries to steal the rug from Pauline's office (because it resembled the size of an adult body) to see if he could get by security. The security team quickly spots Jane trying to break through the weakest point in their security proving that Abbey could not have left the grounds.
Jane pulls a classic diversion tactic telling everyone that he believes that Abbey was hidden in the coffin with the Judge's mother. Jane of course makes his speech during the funeral ceremony as only the egotistical Jane can. Although upset the family agrees to test Jane's theory and look inside the coffin. After Dr. Saban opens the casket it is revealed that only Pauline's mother is resting quietly in the box.
It wouldn't be The Mentalist with a Patrick Jane scheme. This time Jane and Lisbon with by hid out by the coffin and wait for the killer to show up. Dr. Saban, who had been helping Abbey with her drug addiction, accidentally gave Abbey and overdose and killed her. Dr. Saban panicked when he killed Abbey and ended up killing her boyfriend as well when he walked in on the failed procedure. The doctor was able to hide Abbey's body but need to get rid of it soon so it wouldn't be found during the investigation. Jane provided him with the idea and he got caught trying to execute it.
