While in a grocery shopping fruits, Patrick Jane is kidnapped by a man that puts him in the trunk of his car and kills the grocery's owner and is wounded. Patrick is handcuffed to a pipe in the basement of a house. Meanwhile a female witness provides the car model and color and the direction the kidnapper has taken on the road. Patrick offers to help the kidnapper to relief his pain, but out of the blue his accomplice arrives and shots him twice on his back. Soon Patrick Jane learns that she is Rachel, the daughter of a man that died in jail, and she says that he will have a painful death to revenge her father. Meanwhile, the CBI investigates the list of people who hold grudges against Patrick while Lisbon is attracted to a trap.
"Ball of Fire" is another great episode of "The Mentalist", where the gorgeous Jessy Schram is the evil villain. The old case of her father should have been a great segment in the lead storyline, and Hightower arriving in the exact moment to save Patrick and Lisbon is too cliches. My vote is eight.
Title (Brazil): "Ball of Fire"
