The Mentalist Season 2 Episode 1

Question

Hi,I'm new and not very good in english. But I hope I can be good from now on.My question regarding The Mentalist Season 2 Episode 1:at the beginning a captain refer Jane as a "Carnec". I search the word but do have any result. Is it not an English word? The meaning I guess is about "Master" or "Magician", am I right? Aslo, the captain said "What does Ivor say?" Why he use the word "Ivor". Does it mean the dead man?Thanks for help

I have never watched that show, but I get the idea. "Carnac the Magnificent" was a clairvoyant character used by the late late-night TV host Johnny Carson. He would put on a turban and pretend to be able to answer the question in a sealed envelope that he held to his forehead. I suspect that your "Carnec" is a reference to that.

"Ivor" is a man's name.

Carnac is a proper name, not Carnec. It probably refers to a TV character played by Johnny Carson. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnac_the_Magnificent

Ivor is probably a proper name. I don't think you spelled it correctly. If there is no character in the show with that name, perhaps it is "Igor" which is a name associated with a fictional villain or monstrous character such as Frankenstein.

Thanks for your reply. Ivor is the real name from the show. Agree with enoon, Ivor is a man's name.
