The Mentalist 3.22 is called "Rhapsody in Red".

 

There's a new recurring character in town, D.A Oscar Ardiles, who is a latino and a handsome, dapper and confident Deputy District Attorney who is furious at Cho for interfering in his case.

 

A singular episode character is Anthony who is a skilled pickpocket and a gang member who is described as the type of kid you want to save. He steals Cho's car and becomes known for enjoying to mess with the cops.

After a night shoot, filming on The Mentalist 3.20 has finished. Last night's onset picture:

Making matters worse, Rigsby's dad also has some problems with his son's chosen profession. "Steve is outraged that any child of his would join the police," Heller says. "He sees it as a personal betrayal, a rejection of Rigsby family tradition."

 

That could lead to some major tension in the episode, which finds Rigsby & Co. investigating the murder of a prison guard. When Jane (Simon Baker) needs help deciphering which inmates may have had a motive for murder, Rigsby calls on his ex-con father for help. Will he cooperate?
