Promotion-chasing Bolton got back on track with a win at play-off hopefuls Plymouth despite playing the whole of the second half with 10 men.
Wanderers goalkeeper Jack Bonham made a brilliant save after just 14 minutes to keep out Ronan Curtis' point-blank volley following a defence-splitting pass from recalled playmaker Herbie Kane.
Bolton were then reduced to 10 players two minutes before the interval when John McAtee was red-carded for a foul on Alex Mitchell.
However, the visitors took a 49th-minute lead through Johnny Kenny from the penalty spot after the ball bounced off Mathias Ross' hand as he cleared for a corner.
Argyle deservedly restored parity in the 57th minute when Kane played an exquisite through ball to Curtis, who spun in the penalty area to fire home in one move.
Wanderers scored a bizarre winner after 70 minutes, though, with home midfielder Malachi Boateng turning the ball into his own net under pressure from Sam Dalby.
Argyle substitute striker and top scorer Lorent Tolaj fired just wide seven minutes from time as the Greens pressed for an equaliser but the visitors hung on for the points.
