Complete story — includes the ending
Three men rob an armored car and the FBI gets the case. Jane suspects that one of the bank employees is working with them, but he won't talk so Wylie tracks his recent locations from his cellphone. Before Vega leaves the office with Cho, to check out the locations that Wylie found, Wylie asks Vega if she wants to go with him to a gaming tournament and dinner in Houston and she says yes. Cho and Vega finds the suspects at a diner and they start shooting. Cho shoots one of them, but he manages to escape. Vega is shot by suspect Steve Sellers ( William Gregory Lee ) and later dies at the hospital. A detective from Austin Homicide, Brian Portis, joins in on the case after Vega's death. One of the suspects is seen at a drug store, but he flees. The police follow the suspects and find them in a house with two hostages. Jane has a plan but Abbott and Cho decide to go in with SWAT instead; when Jane finds out Lisbon is going in with them, he enters the house himself. He gets both hostages released and then gets two of the men to turn on each other. They are about to start shooting each other, but Cho and Abbott go inside and kill them both. After Vega's funeral, Jane tells Lisbon he can't keep working for the FBI, that it could have been her instead of Vega and that he couldn't take it if anything were to happen to Lisbon. Jane then says he's leaving for "someplace nice," and tells Lisbon she can join him if she wants to. Lisbon tearfully watches Jane walk away.
