2x20 Slapped in the face*

2x23 Upset, knocked out, tied to a chair, panicked and terrified when Red John shows and kills people in front of him (absolutely no after care, just a time jump to him totally fine sitting in the office.

Punch Count: Season: 1.5* - Running Total: 3.5

*slap = .5 (not quite a punch)

I’ve been a huge fan of The Mentalist since probably about 2010 but it used to be really hard to watch because CBS didn’t make the episodes available online after they aired and they didn’t go on demand (+ my family didn’t have dvr). Because of this episodes kind of just disappeared after they aired (like the old days aka my entire childhood) so when I saw prime had the whole series I jumped! I started making a whump list (because if I’m binging the whole show I might as well) but I forgot how little Jane whump there is . They tease some every so often with one of Jane’s schemes but other than the occasional (usually well deserved and provoked) punch in the face there’s maybe one episode per season if we’re lucky. And Jane. Whumps. So. Well. He’s so soft, he’s my sassy, grumpy man baby, driven by trauma, loss, revenge, spite, and (one can only assume) tea. Should I make a comprehensive (and I mean COMPREHENSIVE it will include all punches to the face deserved or otherwise) list at the end? Or update after each season? Sound off in the replies!
