We never learn what the ultimate fallout of the whole situation was nor what Bo's motivation was (or if she managed to cash in on all the photos). Hell, there is even a solid chance she might end up being sued, as everything that happens in the finale is the direct result of her misguided attempt to AlwaysSaveTheGirl, performed by breaking and entering, while indirectly getting nine people killed.
