When the season 6 of "The Mentalist" airs again in January, the spectre of serial killer Red John will no longer hound Patrick Jane.
Jane, played by Simon Baker, seems to be moving along fine as it's revealed that he's going out on a date, and it's not with partner Teresa Lisbon, who's getting a boyfriend of her own in succeeding episodes.
In the first episode "White Lines," Jane will get romantically involved with Krystal Markham (Brianne Brown of "Devious Maids"), who is later revealed to be crucial for the resolution of the case the FBI is investigating.
Both Jane and Lisbon is again thrust into the middle of trouble as the newest members of the FBI after they are tapped to investigate the deaths of DEA agents.
So is that the end of romance for the two?
Not so fast, said "The Mentalist" creator Bruno Heller published in Entertainment Weekly: "In order for her to fulfill herself - even if she eventually fulfills herself with Jane, which she may or may not do - she has to find other relationships, other perspectives, other people who love her, just to feel fully who she is."
"It's very important for her to be able to step away from Jane and see herself for herself."
He said they haven't closed the door on the possibility of Jane and Lisbon ending up together.
One thing is clear, however, Red John will never be back. Heller said that that chapter in the life of Jane has already closed.
Heller told Hollywood Reporter last month that the post-John Red environment might prove to be more liberating not just for Jane but for the producers of "The Mentalist" as well.
"A weight has been taken off his shoulders, and to that degree, a weight has been taken off the show. Jane has more freedom and more of a sense of possibility and liberty. ... We'll return to crime-solving," Heller said.
