|ShortSummary = Bones has been kidnapped by Zack, but Booth finds them within the Jeffersonian basement, knowing Zack's methods. Zack kidnapped Brennan because he knew the real killer was putting her life in danger, but people are convinced that Zack is guilty of the Puppeteer murders, especially Booth, with the evidence against him piling up. However, the discovery of half a body from twenty years ago shakes up the case and reveals the true killer as Dr. Roshan, the head of the facility where Zack was being held. As Roshan tries to end Zack's life by tricking, Zack finds himself unable to truly retaliate, even while in mortal peril. Booth saves the day by killing Roshan before Roshan could inject the toxin into Zack's body. Zack tells Booth and Brennan that he didn't kill the lobbyist and asks them to reinvestigate, to which Booth agrees.

Angela is sick, presumably from the night before, but reveals to Brennan that she's pregnant. At [[Zack Addy]]'s appeal, Hodgins testifies about the blood evidence found on the body of Gormogon's apprentice (discovered in "The Steel in the Wheels"), which proves Zack's innocence, and Brennan testifies to his character. Based on the new evidence, Zack is exonerated of murder and his life sentence is overturned. However, the judge determines that he must finish out the last 13 months of his separate sentence for helping the actual killer as he is, in fact, guilty of that crime. While Zack isn't released as the others had hoped, he accepts his sentence as 13 months is nothing compared to the life sentence he was previously facing. At the wedding reception, Booth goes to see Avalon (at the request of Angela), who warns him that she had a vision of Brennan in danger. The team discovers that Mark Kovac has escaped from prison and is after Booth. Booth goes to the Jeffersonian and they learn Cam's security ID is missing, but was used in the middle of night. Everyone evacuates the Jeffersonian, but Booth, Brennan, Angela, and Hodgins are left stuck inside. Booth disarms a bomb planted under the forensic platform, but the bomb was on a repeater, revealing that there are multiple bombs. Several explosions go off within the Jeffersonian.
