Complete story — includes the ending

While Jane and Lisbon enjoy their thriving relationship and manage to keep it a secret from their coworkers, the FBI investigates a murder of one of their own. The agent was undercover in a bowling alley believed to be the base of operations for a weapon smuggling ring. Aided in the investigation by agent Ken Spackman (Tim Griffin), Jane deduces that the bowling alley's bartender, Tisch (Karina Logue), is working for the gang, but Tisch manages to escape. With agent Kim Fischer having transferred to Seattle, rookie agent Michelle Vega ( Josie Loren ) joins the team and helps them capture Tisch, and soon after, Jane formulates a plan to incriminate the murderer. This results in the alley owner being caught, and Jane later pinpoints the location of Tisch's weapons stash, getting her arrested as well. In the FBI headquarters, Jane briefly encounters Agent Pike ( Pedro Pascal ), who questions what Jane has to offer to Lisbon, shortly before Jane surprises Lisbon by renting an antique car.
