Bruno Heller on Lisbon/Jane relationship and more (Interview)

Besides the Red John reveal, are there other landmark moments this season that you're working toward?

The one question for me and other people that remains to be answered after, if and when Jane and Lisbon are done with Red John, what happens to them? I think their feelings for each other, whatever they are, have been masked by this joint mission they've been on. Now they're getting toward the end of that mission — for good or ill, success or failure. Certainly Lisbon is beginning to think about what happens after and how is that relationship going to change. They've always thought themselves that it's a brother-sister, professional relationship but clearly there is more there that they're not really aware of themselves. Once Red John is gone, if he goes, the real relationship that they have with each other is then exposed to light, if you like, then they have to deal with that.

They'll address it head-on?

Yeah, yeah. Or, well, not head-on because neither of them are quite aware of their own feelings but as their feelings become clear, then, yeah.

You're bringing back a lot of recurring characters this season, but also introducing two new players. What can you say about Fischer and Abbott?

As the series rolls on, we're introducing a number of new main characters, but the two biggest ones are FBI agent Abbott, played by Rockmond Dunbar, and FBI sgent Fischer, played by Emily Swallow. I can't really tell you how they enter or what happens with them but they come in and throw several cats among the pigeons among the CBI and cause major drama.
