Back at CBI headquarters interrogation, Willis expresses his frustration with the tribal leaders, who never wanted to do anything to earn the reservation any money. When he got approached by someone needing a place to dump toxic waste, he enlisted Railton's help, thinking that his criminal record predisposed him to taking the money and keeping his mouth shut. When Derrien's baby got the rash, however, Railton changed his mind and wanted them to stop. When Willis overheard Railton setting up a meeting with someone at the lake, he followed them. We see a flashback of Railton with our Jane Doe. She's taking pictures. Willis shoots them both. When he's picking up the bodies, the Langhams stumble upon him, so he quickly shoots them, too.
"I'm sorry," Willis says, looking remorseful. Jane sarcastically tells him as long as he's sorry, they'll just let him go. "Just kidding," Jane says, leaving the interrogation room.
Back at the hospital, Van Pelt brings Jane Doe's driver's license to her. Turns out she's Camille Dillon, an Internet journalist. Van Pelt lets her know that they've notified her family, and that her mother is coming to be with her. Camille starts to remember Railton and the toxic waste problem. "I remember him asking for my help," she says, relieved that it's starting to come back. Van Pelt is visibly pleased that she's been able to help this woman regain her identity.
Van Pelt returns to headquarters to meet up with Rigsby. She tearfully tells him that she thinks she loves the job more than him, and that she can't let him transfer out. "I don't want that responsibility," she insists against Rigsby's protests, "you'll hate me for it."
Meanwhile, Lisbon and Jane are getting Hightower up to speed on the case. She tells them that Silverwing called to complain about Jane's crashing of the memorial. When they try to explain, Hightower cuts them off. She notes that they've solved a triple murder and helped a fourth victim. "To hell with him; you got the job done," she says. Lisbon is pleasantly surprised, and Jane is happy that tensions seem to be easing.
Jane and Lisbon head for the elevator. The doors open and Lisbon gets in, joining Van Pelt, who is still crying. Lisbon isn't sure what to do, but Jane backs off, claiming to have left something behind. He flees the scene while the elevator doors close on Lisbon and a distraught Van Pelt.
