Complete story — includes the ending
At a fruit stall in Clarksburg, a hooded man abducts Jane. A second woman kills the abductor, and Jane is handcuffed to a pole in a cabin basement. Jane recognizes her as Rachael Bowman, the daughter of an insurance salesman Jane helped put away. Linus Wagner, a doctor Jane put away two years ago, offers to help rescue Jane in order to commute his likely imminent death sentence. Wagner has received letters from a woman obsessed with Jane. Rigsby and O'Laughlin ID Rachel's accomplice, from blood on the getaway car, as Fred Kittel. Cho matches text from Wagner's letters to Don Bowman and his daughter Rachel. Lisbon leaves to check Rachel's file but Rachel captures her en route. Rigsby and O'Laughlin track down Kittel's father who directs them to the family cabin. Rachel cuffs Lisbon to the same pipe as Jane wanting to burn down the cabin. Jane and Lisbon almost subdue Rachel using a ruse. Rachel is about to shoot them when Hightower enters and shoots her dead instead.
