I thought of it more as a symbolic gesture of "I didn't really love you".

But why wasn't there a tracking device in it? That would have made sense!

me too

I doubt it will ever be addressed as to whether the necklace was a tracking device or not.

I saw a rerun last night that I'd missed, the one where Jane opens a coffin but only the expected contents are in there, and Rigsby notices the necklace for the first time. Just weird that they made a running theme of it, with no meaning....

PWS - I noticed the necklace in last night's repeat also and thought - 'aha! there it is' but no mention other than it being a gift.

OK, now I'm confused...I didn't watch the rerun last night (early appointment this morning meant early-to-bed last night), but I would have sworn he gave her the necklace as the beginning of the final show. What was she wearing last night?

I was just going to post this very thought. He gave Van Pelt a necklace in the season finale. Was it the same one? Was it a continuity goof?

[PWS]

It was the exact same one. I noticed because both times I was trying to get a good look at it and couldn't... it seemed to have two parts. Did anyone else see what it was?
Hmmm, and you are right...although at the beginning of the finale they were doing a quick flashback of important events in the past, no? So that might have been earlier than the rest of the show.

I thought it was a 3 piece 'faith, hope and charity' necklace. (anchor, cross and heart)

Thanks, Duxxy.. I think I could make out a heart for sure.

I was convinced RJ was gone, now I fear this is not the end of the story. I find that disappointing, and may leave the show for good now. I am so sick of that storyline.
