patrick jane truly is a character of all time. he's arrogant. he's broken. he's haunted. he's funny. he's genuinely delighted by small pleasures. he likes breaking and entering. he's a tea snob. he's tortured frequently on screen. he flinches every time a gun goes off. he hides behind his female colleagues when he gets scared. he's a sociopath. he's a liar. he does magic tricks. he has basically no moral compass and will do anything to catch the guy who killed his wife and child, including lie to and use everyone he cares about. he sleeps on a mattress on the floor in the room his family was murdered in, with the calling card of their killer still on the wall. he loves children. he's very empathetic. he's the reason his family is dead. he loves setting traps and catching people in lies. he hates rich people and doesn't care when they get murdered. he's a card shark. he always knows what everyone is thinking. when people piss him off he makes their lives miserable. he hypnotises people all the time. he's a con man. he's the most honest guy you'll ever meet. like literally where else do you find a freak like that.

One of the things I love about The Mentalist is that Jane never becomes a hero. When someone draws a gun he is visibly scared. He gets behind cops in dangerous situations the first chance he gets. He doesn't decide to put on a cape and run into a gunfight or wrestle with knives. There are times he has to step up and do it but it's not something he normally does. And it's not weakness, knowing Jane as we do, it's all down to logic. He's an untrained civilian and he knows that it's better to let the pros do what they're trained to do. Zero toxic masculity on that front
