'Citadel: Honey Bunny' Episode 5 ended on a major cliffhanger, revealing there's a mole in Citadel that has been helping Guru (Kay Kay Menon) for the last year. In Episode 6, Honey meets Shaan (Sikandar Kher) and discloses that the agency's traitor is none other than Zooni (Simran Bagga), widow of Rinzel, head of Citadel.

A flashback takes us to the time when Guru was captured by Citadel agents after Honey double-crossed him. When Zooni interrogated him at the detention center, Guru revealed that he didn't kill Rinzel but the events portrayed him as one. After Rinzel's death, Citadel labeled him as a traitor. He went into hiding and decided to pursue the dream he and Rinzel were working on-- to start their own foundation against Citadel. Zooni initially didn't believe Guru but she was eventually convinced when she saw the proof from his memory vault that he mentioned.

Though the foundation orchestrated Guru's freedom from the detention center, it all happened with Zooni's help, who eventually joined his mission. In the forward timeline, Honey and Bunny are able to crack the mystery as Guru resumes his mission with Zooni as his primary contact.

Bunny realizes that Guru has assigned his agents the task of taking Armada and eliminating Honey and Nadia. Since Bunny now realizes that he is blinded by loyalty towards Guru, he decides to fight for his family. He visits the orphanage, where Guru adopted him years ago. He sees that Guru is following the same pattern, by adopting young orphan boys to brainwash and train them for his foundation.

During the epic confrontation, Bunny destroys Armada but spares Guru's life, saying that he is a changed man now. Realizing that the thing he worked for years, is destroyed, he asks KD (Saqib Saleem), his other mentee to back off and let Honey Bunny go.

Despite Guru's order to call off the attack on Honey and Bunny, KD goes ahead, believing he is doing the right thing. He, along with a dozen of armed men attacked the palace where Honey had safely kept Nadia. The gun battle follows and Honey, along with Bunny and Nadia, are able to escape the scene. However, KD chases them.

Bunny asks Honey to take Nadia while he stays back to fight KD. The duo, gets into a brutal fight, leaving both of them severely injured. Bunny then makes KD realize how Guru manipulated both of them for years. As an army of agents approaches, KD asks Bunny to leave. However, Bunny decides to stay, probably wanting to end the war for good.

The series ends without disclosing the final fate of Honey and Bunny. Does Bunny survive the incoming danger? Does Honey return to help Bunny? Or is it the end of their story? We hope to get the answers in a possible sequel.
