The Mentalist sidekicks Grace (
Amanda Righetti) and Wayne (
Owain Yeoman) are going to hook up in season two.
"It's probably not going to happen until a quarter of the way through the season," Amanda tells me. "The audience has been expecting it so I think it's been inevitable." Expect to see the two characters sharing more screen time and teaming up on more cases so that the opportunity lends itself to romance. Says Amanda, "I think Wayne really adores her."
