During the night of 4th July, Bozwick was killed after being kidnapped and placed in a deadly trap by a serial killer named William Emmerson, the son of Charlie Emmerson who fifteen years after the death of his father, decided to imitate the techniques of the late John Kramer, better known as the Jigsaw Killer, in an attempt of murdering corrupt cops. Kara, who had let Jamie go to the house of their neighbor friends to play with, didn't knew about this, until at the next morning, when it was discovered who the victim of the trap was, Detective Fitch, another member of the Metropolitan Police Department and a colleague of Bozwick, called her in order to inform her about the death of her husband. Kara felt very sad for this news, reason why she was later visited by Lisa Banks, the wife of Ezekiel, in order to make her feel better.

Later in that day, Ezekiel went to Kara's house along with his new partner William Schenk (the latter being actually the killer using a different last name). Both dressing smoking suits and William bringing flowers. Ezekiel ringed the bell and Kara went to open the door. They both hugged each other while Zeke promised Kara that he will capture the one responsible for the death of Bozwick. Kara asked Ezekiel how did Marv died but then Lisa appeared and told her that her mother was on the phone. Kara went to answer her mother's call while Lisa stood to talk with his husband.
