Plot
| "Sherlock and I do not run around with guns and we don't get into kung fu fights with criminals and we sure as hell do not sleep together." — Joan to Henry
|
| At the 11th Precinct, Captain Gregson calls Joan into his office and shows her a fictional book that is written about her and Holmes, with many artistic liberties. At a construction site, workers find a body has been put through a wood chipper and an FBI badge. At the Morgue, the remains are identified as retired FBI Agent Robert Underhill. Incapacitated by pepper spray, Holmes speculates the Agent was lured to the site by his killer. Underhill's wife Sheila is questioned at the precinct but has an alibi. She indicates they were separated and though retired, he was looking into old cases and told her he was close to cracking one. Having discovered her step-father is the author of the book, Joan confronts Henry at his house. She's bought all hard copies she could find and he doesn't understand why she's so angry. After she demands that no more copies be published, she tells him Holmes doesn't know about the book.

 |
| At The Brownstone, Joan finds Holmes has lined rooms with three case files Bob Underwood had in his home. Holmes has solved all three and believes none resulted in Underwood's death. However, he found that Underwood requested the case file of Mina Davenport. Mina was kidnapped at age 4, escaped and returned ten years later. Her kidnapper was never found and Holmes finds it suspicious that her file was missing from Underwood's home. At the Davenport's, Richard and Nancy speak highly of Underhill, who worked Mina's case. Richard feels responsible for Mina's disappearance and they mention how it's taken years for her to feel safe. A shy Mina meets Bell, Holmes and Joan and outside their house, Holmes says that they've met an imposter of Mina. At the precinct, Gregson is shown a picture of Mina at age 4 and the imposter. Their ears are different shapes and Joan points out that ears don't change shape as people grow.

| Gregson mentions that DNA from four year old Mina's toothbrush matched DNA from the imposter. Even though the toothbrush disappeared after the test, Gregson finds it hard to believe that the Davenports wouldn't recognize their daughter. He's convinced to share their concerns with the Davenports, bring them to the precinct and collect DNA samples from them to compare to the imposter. The Davenports arrive but surprisingly, the imposter comes as well who says she wants to help. While Richard and Nancy go to Gregson's office, Holmes takes "Mina" into a conference room where she tells him about her abductor, a trucker named Keith. Describing a life of isolation in a basement and back of a truck cab where she had no access to any media, her escape was prompted by Keith's declaration they should start a family. While on a trip, she took a straight razor, ran all night, entered a gas station bathroom and shaved her head. Holmes doesn't believe her.

 |
| "Mina" looks at Holmes with surprise and hurt while the upset Davenports, having heard the suspicions, burst into the conference room and whisk Mina away, demanding they be left alone. At the Brownstone, Joan relates that the Davenports refused to give their DNA while Holmes deduces that Joan visited Henry about the book. She's surprised that Holmes isn't angry about the book while he's puzzled why she is. The doorbell rings and they're surprised to find the imposter at the door, alone. She admits she's not Mina and claims that the Davenports killed both Mina and Underwood. In the library, she says her real name is Cassie, that in a few weeks she'll turn 21 and have access to Mina's trust worth $5M. In exchange for keeping her secret, she offers to spy on the Davenports in order to provide incriminating evidence. She relates that the Davenports helped her learn Mina's past and, that she saw Richard and Underwood arguing just before his murder.
|
 |
| Joan is surprised when Holmes agrees to Cassie's deal and he provides her with two listening devices. He asks Cassie to put one on each floor of the house near a window. After Cassie leaves, Joan comments how Holmes acted as if he believed her story while he informs her that one of the devices is a flash bang. When it explodes, they'll gain access to collect the Davenport's DNA and, search for traces of Agent Underwood. Later after the explosion, with the fire department at the Underwoods, Richard protests to having Holmes and Joan at the scene. Bell and Gregson don't know about the flash bang and leave Holmes and Joan alone in the garage while they search the house. While examining the vehicles, Joan tells Holmes she's angry about Henry's book because she hasn't forgiven him for his affair and felt that him writing the book was another selfish act. Holmes finds blood under the brake pedal of an SUV that he deduces Cassie drove.
