Saw 3D recap
Jill Tuck goes to Detective Matt Gibson, offering to testify against Hoffman in exchange for protection, and Hoffman sets out to kill her. Meanwhile, Bobby Dagen, a self-help author famous for surviving a Jigsaw trap, turns out to have made up the story, and Hoffman puts him through a real game in an abandoned asylum. Bobby must reach his wife, Joyce, within an hour, as people who helped him lie, his publicist, lawyer and best friend, die in traps around him. Hoffman also kills a gang in a junkyard trap. Gibson sends a SWAT team after Bobby, but they are gassed. Hoffman gets into the police station hidden in a body bag, and kills everyone there, including Gibson. Dr. Lawrence Gordon appears in flashbacks recovering from the first film.
Saw 3D ending explained
Bobby fails his test and Joyce burns to death, Hoffman kills Jill with the reverse bear trap, and Dr. Lawrence Gordon, John's secret third apprentice, chains Hoffman in the original bathroom. Bobby falls from hooks driven through his chest. Gordon survived the first film by cauterising his leg and has been helping John since, under orders to act if Jill were harmed. He throws away the hacksaw and seals the door, saying "Game over".
