this weeks ep starts with lisbon and the gang going to a cemetery where a man is dead, naked and has some flowers covering up his modesty... (well actually the ep starts with rigsby and van pelt in bed together, but that isnt important).
when the team get back to HQ they find that bosco and his team have been shot, boscos still alive but his team are dead, with one member missing. jane thinks there's a connection between this and the nekkid man in the cemetery (and jane is usually right). as the show goes on we find out that the nakedness is a doctor, this seems to mean something to jane, who rushes off to his (the doctors) office he finds boscos missing team member, dead, and red johns signature smiley. once outside, jane tells lisbon that this doctor had been the doctor for two of red johns victims.
it seems that red john had left some loose ends, and that is why he killed the doc, and boscos team who might have found something out.
jane goes to visit bosco, whos in a medically induced coma, and tries to wake him up by unplugging a machine and meddling with some morphine, lisbon catches him though and then a doctor comes in to plug in the machine.
the team soon find out bosco had been talking to a cop in cloverville, where a dead body had been found when a strip mall had been torn down. the dead body turns out to tbe the husband of one of red johns victims. jane is sure this was red johns mistake. when cho and jane go to get the body from cloverville, they find out that the body has already been taken and that security footage had been tampered with so noone could find out who took the body. they do get a description of the woman who took the body, and it sounds alot like boscos secretary, rebeccah (she had said shed been getting coffee when the shooting happened).
the show then goes into flashback, showing rebeccah killing boscos team, and shooting him while saying 'red john says hi'.
we then go to boscos hospital room (in the present) with rebeccah trying to kill bosco again, but van pelt and lisbon are able to stop her.
back at HQ jane interviews rebeccah, while everyone else watches. rebeccah tells jane that she killed boscos team because red john wanted jane to have the case back, and that he misses jane. that is were jane ends the interview and rebeccah is taken away in handcuffs. not long after jane runs after rebeccah, just as she falls to the ground, because she has been poisened.
now, back to the hospital and the doctors dont think bosco will make it (which im not too happy about, he was just starting to grow on me). bosco tells jane that when he catches red john dont turn him in, kill him, to which jane replies 'thats the plan'.
