Plot

Emily, having discovered her mother is alive, postpones her revenge plan and sets out on a journey to find her mother. Digging into her past, traumatic memories from her childhood resurface, and she discovers the Graysons' involvement with her mother's disappearance. Her search leads her to discover that her mother, now known as Kara Clarke-Murphy, was married to her father's murderer, the mysterious white-haired man whose name is Gordon Murphy.

The Graysons face turmoil after numerous events: Victoria has faked her death and is now living in hiding, Charlotte has overcome her addiction but is entrapped in rehab by Conrad, and Daniel, now CEO of Grayson Global, is soon facing the mysterious organization known as the Americon Initiative.

The Porters rejoice over Jack's newborn son Carl, but the dangerous past of their father and Declan's rebellious behavior lead them to troubled waters. Amanda is publicly accepted as part of the Grayson family but still hides her demons from Jack. The secretive Ryan brothers buy the Stowaway to free Declan from theft charges, however, more deeply rooted motivations are revealed to be ruling their decision.

Social climber Ashley Davenport takes over Victoria's spot as Queen of the Hamptons, but is soon stripped of her position; later, she plots revenge. Nolan becomes attracted to the clever Padma Lahari, whom he appoints as CFO of his company, but Lahari has a secret agenda of her own. Finally, a man from Emily's past, Aiden Mathis, re-enters her life and becomes a partner in her plans for revenge.

Ashley and Jack are conspiring to take Conrad's gubernatorial campaign down and decide that Jack should take Conrad's picture with Stoddard's wife to Victoria, saying that he wants to save his campaign and avoid a major scandal for Conrad. Victoria thanks him and says that Jack was responsible for Emily and Daniel's breakup last summer. Victoria confronts Allison Stoddard about her encounter with Conrad. Allison says that they are meeting because she is sabotaging her husband's campaign, because he has a serious heart condition and may not survive another term as governor. Aiden asks Nolan to help him make Emily forfeit her quest for vengeance, saying that he didn't find "closure"; his quest for his sister's murderer only made him suffer and this vendetta will make Emily suffer too. He asks Nolan to hack the Amanda Clarke Foundation bank account and withdraw all the money from it while he still has access to it as treasurer of the foundation, thus withdrawing all the Graysons' fortune.

Aiden confronts Takeda about the whole vengeance plans and insinuates that Takeda has another reason to want Emily to continue with her revenge quest. They battle and Aiden kills Takeda with a katana.

Aiden, knowing he will be held responsible for the Manhattan blackout, flees New York, but the media reports Aiden, now a terrorist suspect, has been captured by the FBI attempting to cross the border to Canada. Later, all charges are dropped and Aiden is released, with federal authorities going after Nolan instead. Nolan suffers the same fate as David Clarke: he is arrested by the FBI, who storm his office on charges of treason against the United States. The feds don't believe his claims of innocence because of his recorded friendship with Clarke, he learns the Falcon has denied everything and claimed he was behind the blackout, and finally a video is shown of deceased Padma Lahari. Padma, clearly forced to speak by the Initiative, declares Nolan is the "blind disciple" of David Clarke, and her lover was and is an anarchist and genius believing his judgment should affect the world. She finishes by stating "Nolan is Americon Initiative" (or a terrorist mastermind like Clarke). Nolan realizes he has been blamed for the Initiative's actions, which was their plan from the start. Daniel and Victoria each individually turn on Conrad; the former when he finds out that Conrad knew about the bomb beforehand, and the latter when she learns that Conrad joined "The Initiative" earlier that year. He had become a member of a private group of businesspeople who profited from these attacks, all for the sake of his own fortunes and family. The heartbreaking death of his brother leaves Jack frantic and unsure of his own sanity; deciding he has nothing left to lose, he goes to Grayson Manor and steals a gun. Running into Victoria, he threatens her with it, knowing she betrayed him. He decides, instead, that it is a worse punishment to make her live with all the guilt she has. Charlotte returns to recover from the bombing, and Victoria comforts her, deciding against telling her about Declan's death for the time being. Jack goes to Conrad's speech, with it now official he won the election and he is Governor-Elect of New York State. Emily rushes to find Jack before he kills Conrad. Daniel shows up at Emily's house where he finds Aiden. The two men fight and Aiden defeats his former boss, finishing by crashing him into Emily's desk. Aiden says he’s giving Daniel a pass to live, and tells Daniel to let Emily go. Daniel, lying on the floor and overcome with rage, notices he has landed within a foot of Emily's gun, which has spilled onto the floor with him. Daniel comes to Conrad's speech with blood on his shirt sleeve, suggesting that he killed Aiden with Emily's gun - Aiden is not seen again afterwards. Victoria, alone with her guilt, is sitting at home watching Conrad's victory speech, when her door bell rings. She goes to answer it and it is Patrick. Emily locates Jack. She rushes up the stairs to where he has the gun pointed at Conrad, who makes a point of praising Declan in his speech, using it as capital for his popularity. Emily says that he can't do this; Jack says this has nothing to do with her. She proclaims that it has everything to do with her. Emily, forced to evaluate her quest for revenge after so many heartbreaking deaths, steps in front of the gun and says that she should have left him out of "all this" (her revenge). She begs Jack to really look at her and announces to him that she is Amanda Clarke.
