The Mentalist - Rhapsody In Red

While this was a standard who-dunnit episode, it was also a bit of fun.  Patrick Jane uses his knowledge of human behaviour to influence a group of high society orchestra lovers to think the worse of the conductor and his suggestions are spread throughout the group like wildfire.
The story has a young solo violinist found shot to death in the burbs.  Why was she there?  There are a number of red herrings (as usual) but it is still a solid episode.  While at the scene, Cho has his car keys stolen by a young pickpocket.  This was the one weak piece of this show.  Cho was a past gang member and would be able to recognise a pickpocketing especially on himself.  Even we could see that was what was happening!  A weak plot point that is not normally for this show.  All in all a good episode.
