Complete story — includes the ending

Rogue DIA agent Gephardt admits to the murders (from " Wrong Side of the Road "), but threatens Sherlock to end his investigation or be linked to Morland's crimes. Kate Durning gives Joan audio recordings of Cy's court hearings at Kotite's pre-trial, in which Gephardt's murder victims had heard Tom Saunders ranting about conspiracies, including a secret plot to end Venezuelan democracy. Lawyer Sydney Garber reveals Saunders was a paranoid schizophrenic, but two days before Kotite's murder, a 50-pound cyclonite toilet bomb exploded in the Caracas National Library, narrowly missing the Venezuelan president. A document proves Garber knew about the bombing before it occurred. Gephardt tries to kill Garber, who tells the NYPD, his college roommate Alberto is the head of Venezuelan intelligence. Gephardt had hired him to acquire Fidel Castro 's secret files. Garber provides his USB copy, which is slightly different from the Fidel Files Gephardt uploaded to the internet, containing video of Iran's nuclear weapons program. After raiding Gephardt's family home, Holmes provides NSA Agent McNally proof that Gephardt faked video of Iran possessing nuclear warheads in order to instigate a war between the U.S. and Iran. Kitty asks Joan and Sherlock to be Archie's godparents.
