With Leo safely at home, King and Knapp set out to wrap up the loose ends that seem to connect Vance to the plot to frame King. However, as Atkins and Archer are also discussing how to expose Vance, something else entirely unfolds when Atkins stumbles onto an elaborate command post at Archer's home that has been used to track Leo Cain's kidnapping. But before he can ask any questions, Atkins is ambushed and killed by the crime's real mastermind – Agent Andy Archer. Meanwhile, though Knapp is certain that Vance is guilty, King isn't so sure. And as King presses Archer to contact Atkins, Turner tells Knapp of the connection between Leo's hospital stay and Kellog's prison pen pal, Emerson Jaynes.
As the Cains prepare to address the press before leaving town for some much-needed rest, King is at the hospital to interview the doctor who performed the heart transplant that saved Leo's life. And while Knapp pursues Claire's killer in hopes of finding Vance, Archer slips away long enough to clean up one last loose end by killing the Operator. Then, as Dr. Jannssen reveals that the patient who died in the hospital room next door to Leo was Andy Archer's son, and Annie Phillips recognizes Archer as the same man who dated her daughter before she was killed, King calls to warn Knapp that the Cain family is still in grave danger.....
