1
00:00:05,756 --> 00:00:08,218
What do you know about the
Cayman Islands? Great diving.
2
00:00:08,242 --> 00:00:10,086
Lots of sea turtles.
Why? Are you going?
3
00:00:10,110 --> 00:00:12,360
My accountant wants me
to set up a tax shelter there.
4
00:00:12,429 --> 00:00:15,013
Tax shelter? Exactly
how loaded are you?
5
00:00:15,082 --> 00:00:18,884
That is an offensive way to phrase
the question. But... quite loaded.
6
00:00:18,953 --> 00:00:22,837
I'm getting a seven-figure
advance for my next book.
7
00:00:22,906 --> 00:00:24,986
Seven figures. Wow.
8
00:00:25,059 --> 00:00:27,037
With-Without the decimal point?
9
00:00:27,061 --> 00:00:29,377
The publishers make
considerably more.
10
00:00:30,731 --> 00:00:33,376
What's the first of those
seven figures? Prime number.
11
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,985
What do you do with your
money? I use it for food and rent.
12
00:00:45,729 --> 00:00:47,679
Hey, what do we got here?
13
00:00:47,748 --> 00:00:49,726
You Agent Booth? Special
Agent Booth. How ya doing?
14
00:00:49,750 --> 00:00:51,160
Sheriff Delpy. This
here is my partner...
15
00:00:51,184 --> 00:00:53,118
I can introduce myself.
Dr. Temperance Brennan.
16
00:00:53,186 --> 00:00:54,614
Somebody ran
the car off the road?
17
00:00:54,638 --> 00:00:57,438
Gravel makes it impossible
to get any traceable tire marks.
18
00:00:59,643 --> 00:01:03,278
The victim was doused with
gasoline and then set on fire.
19
00:01:03,347 --> 00:01:06,765
Farmer three miles away
saw the smoke. Called it in.
20
00:01:06,834 --> 00:01:11,437
Female. Probably
in her early 20s.
21
00:01:11,505 --> 00:01:14,422
Preauricular
sulcus on the iliac.
22
00:01:14,491 --> 00:01:16,424
She's given birth.
23
00:01:16,493 --> 00:01:19,628
Ran off the side of
the road, set on fire...
24
00:01:19,697 --> 00:01:23,048
- Somebody wanted her dead.
- That's why I need your help.
25
00:01:23,117 --> 00:01:25,550
I only got six deputies
covering 400 square miles.
26
00:01:25,619 --> 00:01:28,387
I'm stretched thinner
than plastic wrap.
27
00:01:28,455 --> 00:01:31,150
Compound fractures to
the right tibia and fibula.
28
00:01:31,174 --> 00:01:34,159
Crushed manubrium.
Massive skull trauma.
29
00:01:34,227 --> 00:01:37,729
I'm not certain yet
whether she died...
30
00:01:37,798 --> 00:01:39,981
- in the accident or the fire.
- Shh.
31
00:01:41,051 --> 00:01:43,131
You hear that?
32
00:01:44,187 --> 00:01:46,805
Everybody keep
quiet. Stop working.
33
00:01:47,808 --> 00:01:50,608
Do you hear that?
Sounds like a cat.
34
00:01:52,178 --> 00:01:54,796
It's a baby.
35
00:02:02,072 --> 00:02:04,505
- Holy crap.
- Get a ladder down here now!
36
00:02:04,574 --> 00:02:07,141
All right, let's move!
37
00:02:07,210 --> 00:02:09,644
There's not even a
scratch on the boy.
38
00:02:09,713 --> 00:02:12,080
It's a miracle. Well, hardly.
39
00:02:12,148 --> 00:02:14,849
Car seats are specifically
engineered to protect the child from...
40
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,820
From what? Flying out of the
back of the car and landing in a tree?
41
00:02:18,889 --> 00:02:23,424
Look at him. He looks a little fussy. Why
don't you pick him up and give him a cuddle?
42
00:02:23,493 --> 00:02:27,145
Just because I have breasts doesn't
mean I have magical powers over infants.
43
00:02:27,214 --> 00:02:29,425
- You're the one with the son.
- All right, fine. I'll take him.
44
00:02:29,449 --> 00:02:32,094
Here you go. You have fun with
the diaper bag. You look good.
45
00:02:32,118 --> 00:02:35,404
Come on, little man. Hi.
46
00:02:35,472 --> 00:02:39,207
Why don't you say hi to your
grumpy old Auntie Bones?
47
00:02:39,276 --> 00:02:41,209
No, I'm not grumpy.
48
00:02:41,278 --> 00:02:44,813
You know, the... the
vinyl seat melted...
49
00:02:44,882 --> 00:02:48,349
and fused to the body, so we need
that brought back to the Jeffersonian.
50
00:02:48,418 --> 00:02:50,396
And the driver's door for
particulate evidence. Right.
51
00:02:50,420 --> 00:02:52,621
Kid smells a little ripe.
52
00:02:52,689 --> 00:02:54,656
Might want to take care of that.
53
00:02:54,725 --> 00:02:56,702
Yeah.
54
00:02:56,726 --> 00:02:58,721
Bones, I'm gonna have to
change him. Just hold on to him.
55
00:02:58,745 --> 00:03:00,222
Wh-Why... Here
you go. Here you go.
56
00:03:00,246 --> 00:03:03,181
Got him? Okay. All
right, here you go.
57
00:03:03,249 --> 00:03:05,484
We'll work together on this one.
58
00:03:05,553 --> 00:03:09,287
Changing Diapers 101, Bones.
Here we go, little big man.
59
00:03:09,356 --> 00:03:11,868
Okay, watch your... Yeah. Here.
We'll put you down right here.
60
00:03:11,892 --> 00:03:13,853
Look at that. All right.
61
00:03:13,877 --> 00:03:16,761
- Give me a diaper
there, Bones.
- All right. Here you go.
62
00:03:16,830 --> 00:03:18,397
Thanks. Baby powder.
63
00:03:18,465 --> 00:03:21,210
No. You know, Booth, I have
better things to do with my time.
64
00:03:21,234 --> 00:03:24,051
There's no powder.
65
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,354
No powder? Yeah. Hey.
66
00:03:26,423 --> 00:03:28,773
Wait a minute.
67
00:03:30,844 --> 00:03:34,580
- Where'd that come from?
- 'Cause there's a rip
in the lining of the bag.
68
00:03:34,648 --> 00:03:36,309
Seems like someone
was trying to hide it.
69
00:03:36,333 --> 00:03:39,451
I'll get an evidence bag, and I'll ask
E.M.T. if they have any baby powder.
70
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,080
Just watch him. Wait.
Wait. Booth, there's a baby.
71
00:03:42,138 --> 00:03:44,072
I don't feel comf...
72
00:03:47,744 --> 00:03:51,296
Coochie-coo. Oh, no, no.
73
00:03:51,365 --> 00:03:53,927
No need to fuss. Obviously
something's upsetting you.
74
00:03:53,951 --> 00:03:56,128
Children have toys.
You must have some.
75
00:03:56,152 --> 00:03:58,236
Let me see.
76
00:03:58,305 --> 00:04:01,039
No. Elephants are not
purple. This is wrong.
77
00:04:03,226 --> 00:04:05,426
Hey, look at that.
He flipped over.
78
00:04:05,496 --> 00:04:08,930
Bones, that's because you gotta
watch him. Geez. Okay. Whoa.
79
00:04:08,999 --> 00:04:11,799
All right. Okay, look, little big man,
if you're gonna be on my jacket,
80
00:04:11,868 --> 00:04:14,720
we gotta get you out
of that dirty diaper. Ooh.
81
00:04:14,788 --> 00:04:17,150
Whoa. Okay, where's the
key? I put it on your jacket.
82
00:04:17,174 --> 00:04:20,608
Next to the baby? Yeah.
83
00:04:20,677 --> 00:04:24,062
Are you crazy? Do you know that
babies put everything in their mouth?
84
00:04:24,130 --> 00:04:26,064
He could swallow the
key. It's so dangerous.
85
00:04:26,132 --> 00:04:28,545
All right. Look... Okay.
Shh. Shh. Shh, shh, shh.
86
00:04:28,569 --> 00:04:31,937
Oh, look. Okay, look. Key,
Bones. Look for the key.
87
00:04:32,006 --> 00:04:36,123
It's not here. Oh,
no. He must have...
88
00:04:36,192 --> 00:04:38,894
swallowed it. Swallowed it.
89
00:04:38,962 --> 00:04:42,163
Okay. Here you
go. Get used to him.
90
00:04:42,232 --> 00:04:44,516
What do you mean?
That key was evidence.
91
00:04:44,585 --> 00:04:46,501
You know how the
chain of custody works.
92
00:04:46,570 --> 00:04:49,921
That kid stays with us
until we get the key back.
93
00:04:49,990 --> 00:04:53,291
- Oh! Ha.
- Ooh.
94
00:04:54,294 --> 00:04:56,278
Whoo-hoo. That's a stream.
95
00:05:27,894 --> 00:05:31,513
I've never seen anything so
gorgeous on this table before.
96
00:05:31,582 --> 00:05:35,216
- Or so alive.
- Why is Dr. Brennan
the official custodian?
97
00:05:35,285 --> 00:05:37,496
She's registered
as a foster parent.
98
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,450
Russ asked her to do it
after he began his prison term.
99
00:05:40,474 --> 00:05:42,501
Russ wants to make
sure his stepdaughters...
100
00:05:42,525 --> 00:05:44,976
are taken care of if
anything happens to Amy.
101
00:05:45,044 --> 00:05:47,022
Prodigious saliva production.
102
00:05:47,046 --> 00:05:52,133
Okay, now we can determine if
the little guy really did swallow a key,
103
00:05:52,202 --> 00:05:55,703
or if he has been
falsely accused.
104
00:05:55,772 --> 00:05:58,618
Well, unless he's already
had a hip replacement,
105
00:05:58,642 --> 00:06:00,575
sounds like there's
a key in there.
106
00:06:00,644 --> 00:06:02,705
He liked it. Do it again.
107
00:06:05,065 --> 00:06:08,683
- What are you doing?
- We were just...
108
00:06:08,752 --> 00:06:12,354
We verified that the baby
did indeed swallow the key.
109
00:06:12,422 --> 00:06:14,839
Then you should x-ray
him to get a clear view of it.
110
00:06:14,908 --> 00:06:19,394
He's not a plaything. And you're
supposed to be examining the victim.
111
00:06:19,463 --> 00:06:22,497
We thought it would be bad form to
examine the remains in front of the baby.
112
00:06:22,566 --> 00:06:24,610
You know, creepy
formative memory.
113
00:06:24,634 --> 00:06:27,263
Then would you mind taking him
for a little while so that we can work?
114
00:06:27,287 --> 00:06:29,121
I'd love to.
115
00:06:34,144 --> 00:06:37,695
Get used to it. I want,
like, a million of these.
116
00:06:37,764 --> 00:06:39,898
Cool.
117
00:06:41,818 --> 00:06:45,553
What do you think she
meant by "a million"? Two?
118
00:06:47,624 --> 00:06:49,924
Agent Booth.
119
00:06:49,993 --> 00:06:51,521
Yeah? Got a hit
on your burned car.
120
00:06:51,545 --> 00:06:53,422
It was registered to a dead guy.
121
00:06:53,446 --> 00:06:56,147
Dead woman driving
a dead man's car.
122
00:06:56,216 --> 00:06:58,193
Plates expired five years ago.
123
00:06:58,217 --> 00:07:00,297
Dead guy's family said
they sold the car for scrap...
124
00:07:00,353 --> 00:07:03,037
at a junkyard in Seneca
Rocks, West Virginia.
125
00:07:03,106 --> 00:07:06,191
Let me guess. Junkyard
guy sells off the old heaps...
126
00:07:06,259 --> 00:07:09,461
to people who want to
get off the grid. He used to.
127
00:07:09,529 --> 00:07:11,857
Operation got shut down two
years ago. No one's seen him since.
128
00:07:11,881 --> 00:07:15,416
Let me know if Forensics finds
anything to help Bones I.D. the remains.
129
00:07:15,485 --> 00:07:19,754
Is it true that Dr. Brennan's
taking care of the baby?
130
00:07:19,822 --> 00:07:23,424
- Because that's something
I'd pay to see.
- Good-bye, Charlie.
131
00:07:26,663 --> 00:07:28,875
The victim exhibits enlarged
hypertrophic lesions...
132
00:07:28,899 --> 00:07:31,099
at multiple muscle attachments.
133
00:07:31,168 --> 00:07:35,286
The result of strenuous
activity, most likely occupational.
134
00:07:35,355 --> 00:07:38,190
Ligamenta flava shows
evidence of whiplash.
135
00:07:38,258 --> 00:07:41,359
All the perimortem injuries are
consistent with vehicular trauma.
136
00:07:41,428 --> 00:07:43,477
She was dead
prior to immolation.
137
00:07:43,546 --> 00:07:46,281
Zack, grind some bones so Hodgins
can perform an isotope analysis.
138
00:07:46,350 --> 00:07:48,816
We might be able to
figure out where she lived.
139
00:07:48,885 --> 00:07:51,819
Junior made us a little present.
140
00:07:51,888 --> 00:07:55,874
- The key. Finally.
- Not yet. This is just
the usual present.
141
00:07:55,942 --> 00:07:59,160
But with one major difference.
142
00:07:59,229 --> 00:08:03,164
I assume pink isn't a normal
color for this type of thing.
143
00:08:03,233 --> 00:08:06,718
- Does yours ever look pink?
- No, but I'm not an infant.
144
00:08:06,787 --> 00:08:09,137
Where's the baby?
Asleep in your office.
145
00:08:09,205 --> 00:08:11,217
I was gonna start the
facial reconstruction, so...
146
00:08:11,241 --> 00:08:15,710
- He's my charge. I'll sit with him.
- Let me run some tests.
147
00:08:15,779 --> 00:08:17,757
See what I can find. Actually...
148
00:08:17,781 --> 00:08:20,760
One time when I was visiting
my cousins we ate a lot of beets.
149
00:08:20,784 --> 00:08:23,851
And the next day... Zack,
really... too much sharing.
150
00:08:25,923 --> 00:08:29,002
You know, you look very
mom-like with that baby bottle.
151
00:08:29,026 --> 00:08:31,659
I have responsibilities under
state law as a foster parent.
152
00:08:31,728 --> 00:08:33,711
I already bought him
toys and clothes...
153
00:08:33,780 --> 00:08:35,758
Oh, so you bought
him some clothes.
154
00:08:35,782 --> 00:08:38,216
Well, I sent an intern who
apparently loves bears,
155
00:08:38,285 --> 00:08:40,201
which in reality would
devour a small child.
156
00:08:40,270 --> 00:08:42,319
I tested the ground
bone for strontium.
157
00:08:42,388 --> 00:08:44,872
Strontium is an element
found in most rocks.
158
00:08:44,941 --> 00:08:47,937
Human beings absorb it through the
consumption of local vegetation and water.
159
00:08:47,961 --> 00:08:51,512
Over time, the isotope
collects in the bones, meaning...
160
00:08:51,581 --> 00:08:53,862
You can use it to figure
out where someone's from.
161
00:08:55,051 --> 00:09:00,088
That is right, people. I
am a constant surprise.
162
00:09:00,157 --> 00:09:02,607
I don't understand.
163
00:09:02,676 --> 00:09:04,637
He's been fed. He's changed.
164
00:09:04,661 --> 00:09:08,679
- I powdered him,
and now he's just complaining.
- He's acting like a real baby.
165
00:09:08,748 --> 00:09:11,366
The victim was from
northern West Virginia.
166
00:09:11,434 --> 00:09:15,069
- Tucker County, to be precise.
- Are you sure she's
from Tucker County?
167
00:09:15,138 --> 00:09:17,121
The crash was in
Pendleton. Very sure.
168
00:09:17,190 --> 00:09:19,736
Particulate matter collected from the
salvage area of the car contained guano...
169
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,628
from a Corynorhinus
townsendii virginianis.
170
00:09:23,697 --> 00:09:26,214
So we know where to look.
171
00:09:26,283 --> 00:09:28,516
Are you gonna get him?
172
00:09:28,584 --> 00:09:30,830
- I figured you'd get him.
- Don't you have a responsibility
under state law?
173
00:09:30,854 --> 00:09:33,454
- But you're the baby daddy.
- Baby daddy?
174
00:09:33,523 --> 00:09:37,275
- You have prior experience
with preverbal infancy.
- You can be the daddy mommy.
175
00:09:37,343 --> 00:09:41,128
Okay, you two better get your act
together, or I'm suing for custody.
176
00:09:41,197 --> 00:09:43,731
This is my rendering
of the victim.
177
00:09:47,170 --> 00:09:50,104
There are numerous
genetic similarities.
178
00:09:51,107 --> 00:09:53,274
Cam's running
D.N.A. tests to be sure,
179
00:09:53,343 --> 00:09:57,429
but I'm comfortable with the assessment
that this was the child's mother.
180
00:09:59,849 --> 00:10:03,435
He misses his mother. He's sad.
181
00:10:17,817 --> 00:10:20,485
We need to go to Tucker County.
182
00:10:23,606 --> 00:10:27,608
Last coal mine closed about eight
years ago. This place is a ghost town.
183
00:10:27,677 --> 00:10:29,510
The local economy is devastated.
184
00:10:29,579 --> 00:10:32,241
That could be why our
victim was driving a junker.
185
00:10:32,265 --> 00:10:35,199
She couldn't afford
registration, insurance...
186
00:10:35,268 --> 00:10:38,330
You know, I don't want to sound insensitive
here, but I'm telling you, real estate...
187
00:10:38,354 --> 00:10:40,337
It's gotta be a steal.
188
00:10:40,406 --> 00:10:43,168
I mean, you could build yourself
a beautiful house on the river.
189
00:10:43,192 --> 00:10:45,677
I could come out and fish.
190
00:10:45,745 --> 00:10:47,705
You could put in one
of those media rooms.
191
00:10:47,730 --> 00:10:50,009
I saw a 103-inch
flat-screen TV the other day...
192
00:10:50,033 --> 00:10:52,300
I don't need another
residence, Booth.
193
00:10:52,368 --> 00:10:54,335
Just, you know,
194
00:10:54,404 --> 00:10:57,516
trying to give you a little
financial advice, that's all.
195
00:10:57,540 --> 00:11:00,391
He seems so peaceful.
196
00:11:00,460 --> 00:11:04,645
He has no idea that he's all
alone. Maybe that wasn't his mom.
197
00:11:04,714 --> 00:11:09,968
Maybe there's a dad. No one filed a
report, Booth. No one's worried about him.
198
00:11:10,036 --> 00:11:12,353
Yeah, well, you are.
199
00:11:14,908 --> 00:11:16,574
There's someone.
200
00:11:19,629 --> 00:11:23,131
- You people
are from the government?
- Yes, sir. With the F.B.I.
201
00:11:23,199 --> 00:11:25,816
Uh, training them young, I see.
202
00:11:25,885 --> 00:11:28,319
If you could just
help us... Right.
203
00:11:28,388 --> 00:11:30,321
Just like the
government helped us...
204
00:11:30,390 --> 00:11:33,341
When the bridge washed out,
when they closed the school.
205
00:11:33,410 --> 00:11:36,105
Well, business and
industry have left the area.
206
00:11:36,129 --> 00:11:37,790
The local tax
base is nonexistent.
207
00:11:37,814 --> 00:11:39,759
The government can't be
expected to provide services...
208
00:11:39,783 --> 00:11:41,877
without the fiscal
means to do so.
209
00:11:41,901 --> 00:11:44,919
What's she saying? Are you
from France or somewhere?
210
00:11:44,988 --> 00:11:46,966
Economies live and die
just like any organism.
211
00:11:46,990 --> 00:11:49,156
When they expire, the
logical thing to do is to move.
212
00:11:49,225 --> 00:11:52,393
This land is part of me.
I've lived here all my life.
213
00:11:52,462 --> 00:11:54,228
My father before me. His father!
214
00:11:54,297 --> 00:11:57,726
Paul, who are you hollering at
now? They're from the government.
215
00:11:57,750 --> 00:12:00,501
Oh, my God.
216
00:12:00,570 --> 00:12:03,249
- You have no right! No right at all!
- Hey, hey. Hey, hey, Hey.
217
00:12:03,273 --> 00:12:06,357
Taking people's children
away? You should be ashamed.
218
00:12:06,426 --> 00:12:09,444
That girl does the best
she can to provide for Andy.
219
00:12:09,513 --> 00:12:11,713
Andy? Do you know this baby?
220
00:12:11,781 --> 00:12:14,398
Yeah. Folks up the street...
221
00:12:14,467 --> 00:12:18,136
Carol and Jimmy Grant... they take
care of him when his mama works.
222
00:12:18,204 --> 00:12:20,754
- Is that his mother?
- Looks like her.
223
00:12:20,824 --> 00:12:23,168
But you should
check with the Grants.
224
00:12:23,192 --> 00:12:25,426
What's going on?
225
00:12:25,495 --> 00:12:28,295
Something happen?
226
00:12:29,866 --> 00:12:32,066
Yeah, that's Meg.
227
00:12:32,135 --> 00:12:34,646
Meg Taylor. We all went
to high school together...
228
00:12:34,670 --> 00:12:37,888
Me and Jimmy and Meg,
and Meg's husband, Lou.
229
00:12:37,957 --> 00:12:39,835
Back when we had a high school.
230
00:12:39,859 --> 00:12:41,954
Meg's husband... he
still live around here?
231
00:12:41,978 --> 00:12:44,256
I, uh, haven't seen him lately.
232
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,132
Not that I'd want to.
He's in and out of jail.
233
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,116
Does anything for a drink.
234
00:12:49,185 --> 00:12:51,752
Left Meg before Andy was born.
235
00:12:51,821 --> 00:12:55,489
I'm not sure he's even laid
eyes on Andy more than twice.
236
00:12:55,558 --> 00:12:58,793
Meg worked herself
to the bone for this boy.
237
00:12:58,862 --> 00:13:02,497
We couldn't have one of our own, so
we were real happy to help Meg out.
238
00:13:02,566 --> 00:13:05,344
Meg would have to pry her away
from him at the end of the day.
239
00:13:05,368 --> 00:13:09,336
- Where did she work?
- Uh, Fallbrook Rubber. They recycle tires.
240
00:13:09,406 --> 00:13:12,974
They turn 'em into ground coverings,
you know, for playgrounds and such.
241
00:13:13,043 --> 00:13:15,905
It's one of the only places
left around here to work.
242
00:13:15,929 --> 00:13:17,845
And how about the two of you?
243
00:13:17,914 --> 00:13:20,526
You're both currently
what? Unemployed? No, I...
244
00:13:20,550 --> 00:13:24,102
I work part-time looking after
some of the buildings they shut down.
245
00:13:24,170 --> 00:13:26,170
Jimmy used to teach high school,
246
00:13:26,239 --> 00:13:28,517
and I did some project
management, mostly for construction.
247
00:13:28,541 --> 00:13:31,976
But now, uh, we do what we can.
248
00:13:32,045 --> 00:13:34,039
This town used to be something.
249
00:13:34,063 --> 00:13:36,042
I mean, we were
on the scenic route.
250
00:13:36,066 --> 00:13:39,094
You know, people would
come to visit. It wasn't all coal.
251
00:13:39,118 --> 00:13:41,803
What'll happen to Andy?
'Cause we can watch him.
252
00:13:41,871 --> 00:13:44,205
He's gonna have to
stay with us for now.
253
00:13:44,274 --> 00:13:46,140
Can you tell me where Meg lived?
254
00:13:46,208 --> 00:13:48,538
It looks like everything's
closed down around here.
255
00:13:48,562 --> 00:13:51,245
Yeah. Probably
lost all its customers.
256
00:13:51,314 --> 00:13:54,798
With no bridge, the highway routes
all the traffic away from the town.
257
00:13:57,220 --> 00:14:00,071
Brennan. Got the
scoop on the poop.
258
00:14:00,140 --> 00:14:02,868
It was pharmaceutical dye
used to color the Phenobarbital...
259
00:14:02,892 --> 00:14:04,976
that showed up
in his tox screen.
260
00:14:07,046 --> 00:14:11,081
Andy had Phenobarbital in his
system? Oh, his name's Andy?
261
00:14:11,134 --> 00:14:14,719
Adorable. I had a dog named
Andy. That came out wrong.
262
00:14:14,787 --> 00:14:16,904
Why does he have
Phenobarbital in his system?
263
00:14:16,973 --> 00:14:18,618
It's often prescribed
for seizures.
264
00:14:18,642 --> 00:14:20,674
Perhaps the infant is epileptic.
265
00:14:20,743 --> 00:14:22,972
Hey. Don't say that.
Andy's gonna be just fine.
266
00:14:22,996 --> 00:14:24,912
Well, he was still
breast-feeding,
267
00:14:24,981 --> 00:14:27,381
so there's a slight chance
he ingested the drug that way,
268
00:14:27,450 --> 00:14:29,383
but the depth of
color makes it unlikely.
269
00:14:29,452 --> 00:14:31,486
We're on our way to check
out his mother's home.
270
00:14:31,554 --> 00:14:33,674
I'll see if I can find
the prescription bottle.
271
00:14:38,577 --> 00:14:40,789
Okay. No, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.
272
00:14:40,813 --> 00:14:43,664
What? No, no, no, no. Look.
273
00:14:43,733 --> 00:14:46,200
- Front door is open. You stay here.
- But...
274
00:14:46,268 --> 00:14:50,338
Bones, there is a baby involved. You hear
gunfire, anything like that, drive away.
275
00:14:50,406 --> 00:14:52,634
I'm not leaving you,
Booth. Yes, you will,
276
00:14:52,658 --> 00:14:55,376
because this is about
the baby, not me.
277
00:14:55,445 --> 00:14:57,629
Promise me.
278
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,053
I promise.
279
00:15:35,552 --> 00:15:37,401
Ho! Easy.
280
00:15:37,470 --> 00:15:39,937
Both hands to the
ceiling. Nice and easy.
281
00:15:40,006 --> 00:15:42,206
Right there. Whoa! Yeah!
282
00:15:42,275 --> 00:15:44,208
Easy! God!
283
00:15:44,277 --> 00:15:47,745
You know, I asked
you very nicely.
284
00:15:52,168 --> 00:15:55,386
We will find out what
happened to your mother.
285
00:15:55,455 --> 00:15:57,988
I promise.
286
00:15:58,057 --> 00:16:00,558
You know, Booth is an
excellent investigator.
287
00:16:00,627 --> 00:16:05,145
And I don't like to boast,
but I am the best in my field.
288
00:16:06,232 --> 00:16:08,148
What do you want?
289
00:16:08,217 --> 00:16:10,150
Uh, How...
290
00:16:10,220 --> 00:16:13,520
How about some visual
and auditory stimulation?
291
00:16:13,589 --> 00:16:16,356
Okay, let's see. Um...
292
00:16:17,510 --> 00:16:20,556
I told you, I'm Meg's
husband. I live here.
293
00:16:20,580 --> 00:16:23,197
If you live here, Lou, then why
did you break the front lock?
294
00:16:23,266 --> 00:16:25,261
I didn't do it.
Somebody else broke in.
295
00:16:25,285 --> 00:16:27,746
When I saw it, I thought I'd
come in and check on Meg.
296
00:16:27,770 --> 00:16:30,871
You live here, or you came by
to check on Meg? Which one is it?
297
00:16:32,141 --> 00:16:34,553
All right, now you
got me all confused.
298
00:16:34,577 --> 00:16:36,677
Yeah, I bet.
299
00:16:36,746 --> 00:16:41,749
Look, Meg bails me out
sometimes... if she can.
300
00:16:41,817 --> 00:16:46,186
When I saw she wasn't here, I just
figured I'd, you know, help myself.
301
00:16:46,255 --> 00:16:48,684
How often do you steal from
your wife? It's not stealing.
302
00:16:48,708 --> 00:16:51,075
She likes to help me.
303
00:16:51,144 --> 00:16:54,162
Yeah. Meg's dead.
She was killed.
304
00:16:54,230 --> 00:16:57,030
How? Well, you seem shocked.
305
00:16:57,099 --> 00:16:59,083
Well, of course I am.
306
00:16:59,152 --> 00:17:01,235
Where were you last night?
307
00:17:01,304 --> 00:17:03,971
Last night?
308
00:17:06,692 --> 00:17:09,861
I don't remember.
309
00:17:13,900 --> 00:17:15,983
What do we have?
310
00:17:17,504 --> 00:17:20,187
Phalanges!
311
00:17:20,256 --> 00:17:21,750
Phalanges, phalanges, phalanges.
312
00:17:21,774 --> 00:17:24,441
Dancing phalanges.
313
00:17:24,510 --> 00:17:26,511
Dancing phalanges.
314
00:17:26,579 --> 00:17:28,539
Yeah.
315
00:17:28,581 --> 00:17:31,282
Booth thinks that bones
are dry and boring, but...
316
00:17:31,350 --> 00:17:33,266
Show me your phalanges.
317
00:17:34,970 --> 00:17:37,404
Hey, Bones. Her husband.
318
00:17:37,474 --> 00:17:40,224
Real genius. Doesn't even
remember where he was last night.
319
00:17:40,292 --> 00:17:42,092
We've got your son in
here. His mother's dead.
320
00:17:42,128 --> 00:17:44,106
- And now you're the only...
- Oh, no, no, no.
321
00:17:44,130 --> 00:17:46,413
See, I never wanted that kid.
322
00:17:46,482 --> 00:17:49,161
She did it because she thought
it would straighten me out.
323
00:17:49,185 --> 00:17:51,930
But I told her I couldn't handle
a kid because I'm a free spirit.
324
00:17:51,954 --> 00:17:54,188
What you are is a drunk, Lou.
325
00:17:54,257 --> 00:17:56,506
All right, Dispatch, I need a
forensics team and a car...
326
00:17:56,575 --> 00:17:58,926
for a burglary suspect
and a possible murderer.
327
00:17:58,995 --> 00:18:01,028
Whoa! I didn't kill her.
328
00:18:01,097 --> 00:18:03,764
Why would I? I...
329
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,635
Who else would feed me?
330
00:18:07,704 --> 00:18:11,972
I've determined an approximate
size and shape for the key.
331
00:18:12,041 --> 00:18:14,481
Did you reference it against
currently registered key patents?
332
00:18:14,544 --> 00:18:17,144
Yeah. The closest
match is an old design...
333
00:18:17,213 --> 00:18:19,297
used for safe-deposit
boxes in banks.
334
00:18:19,365 --> 00:18:21,627
I'm looking into banks near
Huntsville that still use them.
335
00:18:21,651 --> 00:18:24,401
Most safe-deposit keys
are numerically coded.
336
00:18:24,470 --> 00:18:26,515
Well, we couldn't get a
clear enough picture...
337
00:18:26,539 --> 00:18:29,040
without exposing Andy
to too much radiation.
338
00:18:29,108 --> 00:18:31,175
Okay.
339
00:18:31,244 --> 00:18:34,262
How many exactly?
340
00:18:34,330 --> 00:18:38,916
- Excuse me?
- Kids. 'Cause a million
seems a little impractical.
341
00:18:38,985 --> 00:18:40,918
I don't know.
342
00:18:40,987 --> 00:18:43,020
I kind of have a
thing for chaos.
343
00:18:43,089 --> 00:18:46,424
I guess I'll stop when the Feds
need to airlift me in supplies.
344
00:18:46,492 --> 00:18:49,427
You don't by chance
live in a shoe do you?
345
00:18:49,495 --> 00:18:51,596
- You don't want kids?
- Mmm.
346
00:18:51,664 --> 00:18:55,432
Screaming, crying,
vomit... Other bodily fluids.
347
00:18:55,501 --> 00:18:57,618
It's like a day around here.
348
00:18:57,686 --> 00:19:00,037
Not worth giving
up this body for that.
349
00:19:01,106 --> 00:19:02,940
Mmm.
350
00:19:07,730 --> 00:19:10,397
Whoa, whoa. Let's
see what you got there.
351
00:19:13,719 --> 00:19:16,854
Hey, Bones. Sweep's
finished. It's all yours. Come on.
352
00:19:21,277 --> 00:19:23,978
The Phenobarbital
was prescribed to Andy...
353
00:19:24,046 --> 00:19:26,206
at a clinic over 50 miles away.
354
00:19:26,232 --> 00:19:28,511
Yeah. That's probably the
closest medical care they've got.
355
00:19:28,535 --> 00:19:31,969
It's an extremely harsh
drug to give to a child.
356
00:19:32,038 --> 00:19:34,805
It's quite sweet...
These pictures.
357
00:19:34,874 --> 00:19:37,391
She really loved
him. Check this out.
358
00:19:37,460 --> 00:19:40,439
Somebody had a doctor's
appointment in D.C. yesterday.
359
00:19:40,463 --> 00:19:42,441
Maybe that's where
they were headed.
360
00:19:42,465 --> 00:19:45,799
Okay. We'll need this prescription
and Andy's medical records.
361
00:19:45,868 --> 00:19:49,108
Okay. I'll have them sent to the
Jeffersonian 'cause that's what we do.
362
00:19:49,756 --> 00:19:53,591
Brennan.
363
00:19:53,659 --> 00:19:57,011
I've made some discoveries
regarding our victim. Is this a good time?
364
00:19:57,079 --> 00:19:59,813
- No, no, no, no, no, no.
- Okay.
365
00:19:59,899 --> 00:20:02,867
Zack?
366
00:20:02,935 --> 00:20:04,869
Hello?
367
00:20:06,405 --> 00:20:09,006
Dr. Addy.
368
00:20:09,075 --> 00:20:11,576
- Uh, it's Dr. Brennan.
- Oh, is this a better time?
369
00:20:11,644 --> 00:20:14,595
- No, no, no.
- Then why'd you call back?
370
00:20:14,664 --> 00:20:17,384
- I wasn't speaking
with you, Zack.
- I believe you are.
371
00:20:17,433 --> 00:20:20,451
I was saying no to Andy. He
was grabbing my necklace.
372
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,481
Here you go. You were saying?
373
00:20:22,505 --> 00:20:25,406
Our victim had healed
compression fractures...
374
00:20:25,475 --> 00:20:27,407
in her L1 and L2 vertebrae.
375
00:20:27,477 --> 00:20:30,894
- From a traumatic injury?
- No. Malnourishment.
376
00:20:30,963 --> 00:20:33,003
She also has some
minor deformities,
377
00:20:33,032 --> 00:20:35,366
including a slight
bowing of the legs...
378
00:20:35,434 --> 00:20:38,313
and bony outgrowths at a
number of muscle attachments.
379
00:20:38,337 --> 00:20:41,755
Do you know if Cam found any
painkillers in Andy's tox screen?
380
00:20:41,824 --> 00:20:44,408
No. Just the Phenobarbital.
381
00:20:46,595 --> 00:20:48,946
First the key, now
jewelry. What's next?
382
00:20:49,014 --> 00:20:51,776
- You gonna let him play
with a bowling ball?
- I'm watching him.
383
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,568
Meg had a number of bone conditions
that would've caused chronic pain,
384
00:20:54,636 --> 00:20:57,104
but she wasn't taking
any pain medication.
385
00:20:57,173 --> 00:20:59,639
Here. Probably because she
didn't want it affecting her...
386
00:20:59,709 --> 00:21:02,642
You know, her... supply.
387
00:21:02,711 --> 00:21:04,712
You mean her breast milk?
388
00:21:04,780 --> 00:21:07,915
You know, you can say the word
"breast," Booth. Yeah, I know, Bones.
389
00:21:07,983 --> 00:21:09,917
Well, didn't Rebecca
breast-feed Parker?
390
00:21:09,986 --> 00:21:12,670
All right, you know...
391
00:21:12,738 --> 00:21:14,783
I am not discussing
that with you.
392
00:21:14,807 --> 00:21:16,334
Would "teat" make you
feel more comfortable?
393
00:21:16,358 --> 00:21:18,319
- I'm not talking teats
with you!
- Why not?
394
00:21:18,343 --> 00:21:20,243
Enough!
395
00:21:22,315 --> 00:21:24,443
So our victim wasn't
taking any painkillers? No.
396
00:21:24,467 --> 00:21:28,319
But her occupational markers in her
lateral epicondyle and lower discs...
397
00:21:28,387 --> 00:21:30,771
suggest that her job
requires manual labor.
398
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,139
Her pain might have
been excruciating.
399
00:21:33,208 --> 00:21:36,188
Probably had no choice. I mean,
jobs around here are pretty scarce.
400
00:21:36,212 --> 00:21:38,695
All right. What do you
say we go talk to her boss?
401
00:21:38,764 --> 00:21:40,647
Wait. Were you
breast-fed? I was.
402
00:21:41,884 --> 00:21:44,985
Yesterday was her day off.
403
00:21:45,053 --> 00:21:47,588
When she was
late today, I just...
404
00:21:47,656 --> 00:21:50,040
God! I mean, who did
it? What happened?
405
00:21:50,109 --> 00:21:52,209
We're not sure yet, Mr. Barnett.
406
00:21:52,277 --> 00:21:55,007
How long have you been the
manager of this plant? Three years now.
407
00:21:55,031 --> 00:21:57,075
It's the only real
business left around here.
408
00:21:57,099 --> 00:21:59,850
Since Meg's job involved
a lot of physical labor,
409
00:21:59,918 --> 00:22:02,431
were you aware of her spinal
condition? The pain, you mean?
410
00:22:02,455 --> 00:22:04,549
Yeah, I saw. I offered
to put her on disability.
411
00:22:04,573 --> 00:22:07,007
She said she and the
baby couldn't get by on that.
412
00:22:07,076 --> 00:22:09,660
She was tougher
than half the guys here.
413
00:22:09,729 --> 00:22:11,879
Poor little bug.
414
00:22:11,948 --> 00:22:14,982
I got five kids myself.
I can't imagine.
415
00:22:15,051 --> 00:22:17,184
Any reason to think
Meg was in trouble?
416
00:22:17,253 --> 00:22:20,471
No, I was her boss.
She didn't confide in me.
417
00:22:20,539 --> 00:22:22,489
How about that husband of hers?
418
00:22:22,558 --> 00:22:25,076
He was trash on a
cracker if I've ever seen it.
419
00:22:25,144 --> 00:22:26,905
Yeah, they weren't even
living together anymore.
420
00:22:26,929 --> 00:22:30,130
Doesn't mean he ain't jealous. Maybe
someone told him about Shepard.
421
00:22:30,199 --> 00:22:32,516
- Who's Shepard?
- Dave Shepard.
422
00:22:32,585 --> 00:22:35,580
Some accountant from
corporate headquarters in D.C.
423
00:22:35,604 --> 00:22:37,916
He was here for a week.
Left a few days ago.
424
00:22:37,940 --> 00:22:41,075
Yeah. He was here to cut
costs. We've all heard that before.
425
00:22:41,144 --> 00:22:44,512
Good-bye, jobs. Was there
anything between Meg and Shepard?
426
00:22:44,580 --> 00:22:46,430
The guy was kind of slimy.
427
00:22:46,498 --> 00:22:49,561
You know, offering to buy
her sodas, asking about her kid,
428
00:22:49,585 --> 00:22:52,385
all the time looking
at her... You know.
429
00:22:52,454 --> 00:22:54,705
Breasts?
430
00:22:54,774 --> 00:22:57,007
Meg return the attention?
431
00:22:57,076 --> 00:22:59,009
He was from the city. Had money.
432
00:22:59,078 --> 00:23:01,445
After her deadbeat of a
husband, you can't fault her...
433
00:23:01,514 --> 00:23:03,280
for wanting a good meal.
434
00:23:03,349 --> 00:23:05,932
The only guy Meg really
cared about is right there.
435
00:23:06,002 --> 00:23:09,086
She would've done
anything for this kid.
436
00:23:09,154 --> 00:23:11,116
Just do a check on
all the employees.
437
00:23:11,140 --> 00:23:13,473
And also give me the
contact information...
438
00:23:13,542 --> 00:23:15,721
from this Dave Shepard
out of the D.C. area.
439
00:23:15,745 --> 00:23:17,972
I'm telling you, Lou Taylor
didn't do it. He was in jail.
440
00:23:17,996 --> 00:23:20,892
They picked him up
passed out in another county.
441
00:23:20,916 --> 00:23:22,850
Booth? Hold on.
442
00:23:22,918 --> 00:23:26,954
Yeah, well, you know what? If Lou didn't
toss the place, then somebody else did.
443
00:23:27,022 --> 00:23:29,055
All right? So just keep
checking for prints.
444
00:23:29,124 --> 00:23:31,324
I'm telling you, somebody
else is looking for that key.
445
00:23:31,393 --> 00:23:33,326
Booth? Yeah?
446
00:23:33,395 --> 00:23:35,515
Andy's making that face again.
447
00:23:37,300 --> 00:23:39,928
I'm serious, Bones. Next
time, you're changing the diaper.
448
00:23:39,952 --> 00:23:42,030
All right. There are a
series of numbers on it.
449
00:23:42,054 --> 00:23:45,239
These keys were coded
to indicate the specific bank.
450
00:23:45,307 --> 00:23:48,725
So read me your
numbers. Thirty-six, 09,
451
00:23:48,794 --> 00:23:52,296
- 20, 14.
- Okay. It's searching.
452
00:23:52,364 --> 00:23:54,999
Got it.
453
00:23:55,067 --> 00:23:58,118
It's from Green Hills Bank
in Petersburg, West Virginia.
454
00:23:58,187 --> 00:24:01,322
- I'll send the directions
to your phone.
- Thanks, Angela.
455
00:24:01,390 --> 00:24:04,241
No problem. How's
my little bruiser?
456
00:24:04,309 --> 00:24:07,244
Well, he looks pleased
that a piece of metal...
457
00:24:07,313 --> 00:24:10,113
is no longer passing through his
intestinal tract. Yeah, no more metal.
458
00:24:10,149 --> 00:24:12,766
No more metal.
His legs are bowed.
459
00:24:12,835 --> 00:24:15,402
All babies' legs are
bowed. No. Not like this.
460
00:24:15,471 --> 00:24:18,422
How could I have missed that?
461
00:24:18,490 --> 00:24:20,819
Tell Zack to run a "P" ratio
test on the victim's teeth.
462
00:24:20,843 --> 00:24:22,838
He'll know what I
mean. Sure thing.
463
00:24:22,862 --> 00:24:25,143
Take care of
him, sweetie. I will.
464
00:24:27,199 --> 00:24:31,318
I've got the bank's address. It's in
Petersburg, one town from Huntsville.
465
00:24:31,387 --> 00:24:33,320
Great. I'll request a warrant.
466
00:24:33,389 --> 00:24:36,201
That'll give us time to go to Family
Services in Parsons, get you...
467
00:24:36,225 --> 00:24:39,543
What? No. Not yet. Bones, I know
this is difficult, but we both agreed...
468
00:24:39,611 --> 00:24:41,812
that we keep
Andy to get the key.
469
00:24:41,881 --> 00:24:43,959
Now that we have the
key... You can't leave him...
470
00:24:43,983 --> 00:24:45,961
with Family Services in
the middle of nowhere.
471
00:24:45,985 --> 00:24:48,218
Cam still needs to
review his medical records.
472
00:24:48,287 --> 00:24:50,249
Well, I mean, Bones,
there are doctors there.
473
00:24:50,273 --> 00:24:53,157
You have no idea what
that place will be like, Booth.
474
00:24:53,225 --> 00:24:56,509
Med students,
underfunded, understaffed...
475
00:24:56,578 --> 00:24:59,496
- Bones...
- His mother is dead,
and his father is a felon.
476
00:24:59,565 --> 00:25:01,498
I've been in his
situation, Booth.
477
00:25:01,566 --> 00:25:04,952
I'm not turning him over until I'm
satisfied that he is somewhere safe...
478
00:25:05,020 --> 00:25:07,121
where he'll get the
care he deserves.
479
00:25:07,189 --> 00:25:10,157
Fine. He can stay
with us. For now.
480
00:25:10,226 --> 00:25:12,292
Thank you.
481
00:25:12,361 --> 00:25:14,878
Okay. I'll go lock the back up.
482
00:25:14,947 --> 00:25:16,863
Okay.
483
00:25:27,777 --> 00:25:29,810
Just let me know if there's
anything else you need.
484
00:25:29,879 --> 00:25:32,646
Do you like elephants? Huh?
485
00:25:32,714 --> 00:25:34,665
The bank manager said
Meg was a new client.
486
00:25:34,733 --> 00:25:36,667
Only got this box
a few days ago.
487
00:25:38,254 --> 00:25:40,320
Ooh. Uh-oh.
488
00:25:43,275 --> 00:25:45,876
Uh-oh is right.
489
00:25:47,746 --> 00:25:50,347
Oh, Andy.
490
00:25:50,416 --> 00:25:52,716
What kind of trouble
was Mama in?
491
00:25:58,123 --> 00:26:02,142
There's a sticky residue
lining the trigger, and...
492
00:26:02,211 --> 00:26:05,796
I see fragments of a foreign
object inside the barrel.
493
00:26:05,865 --> 00:26:08,449
We need to take this
back to the Jeffersonian.
494
00:26:08,517 --> 00:26:11,918
Well, Meg Taylor didn't own
a firearm, at least not legally.
495
00:26:11,987 --> 00:26:14,421
We need to find out where
Mommy got the gun, don't we?
496
00:26:14,490 --> 00:26:17,391
Hey. Someone filed
off the serial numbers.
497
00:26:17,459 --> 00:26:19,619
You think I didn't know that
before I handed it to you?
498
00:26:19,678 --> 00:26:24,815
I mean, I am F.B.I., not just some
guy who changes your stinky diapers.
499
00:26:24,884 --> 00:26:28,268
It's been fired recently. I'm
finding gunpowder residue.
500
00:26:28,337 --> 00:26:30,570
Gunpowder's not gonna
get me the owner's name.
501
00:26:30,639 --> 00:26:32,639
I need fingerprints, D.N.A.
502
00:26:33,909 --> 00:26:36,869
Do you think there are any
public pools around here?
503
00:26:37,663 --> 00:26:40,647
It's a pretty depressing job, you
know, keeping an eye on the ruins,
504
00:26:40,716 --> 00:26:42,816
but I try to think positive,
505
00:26:42,884 --> 00:26:46,286
like I'm keeping 'em safe
till they open up again.
506
00:26:46,355 --> 00:26:49,222
Uh, chemicals are down here.
507
00:26:50,392 --> 00:26:52,453
Thanks. Yeah. Whoa.
508
00:26:52,477 --> 00:26:54,778
Can I hold him? Just for a bit?
509
00:26:56,682 --> 00:26:59,116
Okay. Just for a little bit.
510
00:26:59,184 --> 00:27:01,118
All right, Andy?
511
00:27:01,186 --> 00:27:03,164
Hey. Did you know of
any medical conditions...
512
00:27:03,188 --> 00:27:05,439
that Andy was being treated for?
513
00:27:05,508 --> 00:27:08,776
Meg never liked to share her
problems. She was pretty independent.
514
00:27:08,844 --> 00:27:12,262
But I mean, Andy's
always seemed just fine.
515
00:27:12,331 --> 00:27:14,264
- Is he sick?
- We're just checking.
516
00:27:14,333 --> 00:27:17,173
- Must've been
a pretty nice pool.
- Yeah. Uh...
517
00:27:17,202 --> 00:27:19,753
Coached the high school team
once back when I was teaching.
518
00:27:19,821 --> 00:27:22,856
Perfect. Muriatic acid.
519
00:27:22,925 --> 00:27:25,476
Bones, what are you doing?
520
00:27:25,544 --> 00:27:28,962
Hey, I get it. Someone filed
the numbers off, didn't they?
521
00:27:29,031 --> 00:27:30,614
How did you know that?
522
00:27:30,682 --> 00:27:33,634
Well, she's using the
acid to react to the metal.
523
00:27:33,702 --> 00:27:35,662
It restores the
original etchings.
524
00:27:35,687 --> 00:27:36,854
I taught science.
525
00:27:36,922 --> 00:27:39,162
- Really?
- You must've been
a good teacher.
526
00:27:43,094 --> 00:27:45,161
I got the numbers.
527
00:27:47,532 --> 00:27:49,816
Okay, great, thanks.
We'll be back soon.
528
00:27:49,885 --> 00:27:52,396
Agent Charlie has found the
owner of the gun. He's in D.C.
529
00:27:52,420 --> 00:27:55,115
I'll tell you what. I'll drop you back
at the lab, and then I'll go talk to him.
530
00:27:55,139 --> 00:27:58,002
Any news about the accountant
who's flirting with Meg?
531
00:27:58,026 --> 00:28:00,377
The one her boss
mentioned? Dave Shepard?
532
00:28:00,445 --> 00:28:02,846
He was supposed to be
back in Huntsville days ago.
533
00:28:02,915 --> 00:28:05,076
Didn't show up at work,
and he's not at home.
534
00:28:05,100 --> 00:28:08,051
You think he killed Meg
and ran? Well, maybe.
535
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,338
Then again, maybe, uh,
Meg killed someone too.
536
00:28:11,406 --> 00:28:13,401
We have no idea
who fired that gun.
537
00:28:13,425 --> 00:28:15,408
Hey. I'll tell you what.
538
00:28:15,476 --> 00:28:18,528
I can't wait to find Dave Shepard
and have a little chat with him.
539
00:28:18,597 --> 00:28:21,559
Hey. The little guy
really likes you, huh?
540
00:28:21,583 --> 00:28:23,316
I've been feeding him.
541
00:28:23,384 --> 00:28:25,913
It's nothing more than the normal
socioarchaeological phenomena...
542
00:28:25,937 --> 00:28:27,897
of bonding with
the food provider.
543
00:28:27,940 --> 00:28:30,907
Sure. That's what I thought.
544
00:28:38,449 --> 00:28:41,518
I completed the "P" ratio
test on our victim's tooth.
545
00:28:41,586 --> 00:28:43,531
And what does that mean?
546
00:28:43,555 --> 00:28:45,722
Indicators in the teeth are
the primary expression...
547
00:28:45,791 --> 00:28:48,124
of certain X-linked
genetic diseases.
548
00:28:48,192 --> 00:28:49,937
Genetic diseases?
549
00:28:49,961 --> 00:28:53,412
Meg had some bone deformities which
could have been the result of malnutrition.
550
00:28:53,481 --> 00:28:55,160
But also might have
been congenital.
551
00:28:55,184 --> 00:28:57,395
Well, does that mean
that Andy has something?
552
00:28:57,419 --> 00:28:59,096
Is that why he's taking
the phenobarbital?
553
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,890
It means it could be any number
of things. It's best not to speculate.
554
00:29:03,959 --> 00:29:05,475
Well, that sounds bad.
555
00:29:05,544 --> 00:29:08,444
The records from the clinic Meg
brought Andy to are pretty shoddy,
556
00:29:08,513 --> 00:29:11,109
but I'll cross-reference them with
your findings, see what I come up with.
557
00:29:11,133 --> 00:29:15,001
And the Department of Family Services
called again about picking up Andy.
558
00:29:15,070 --> 00:29:16,753
Not until I know his condition.
559
00:29:16,821 --> 00:29:18,816
Well, I'm sure the D.C.
branch has excellent doctors.
560
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,940
Why is everyone so keen
on getting rid of Andy?
561
00:29:21,009 --> 00:29:24,094
We aren't. But this
is a forensic lab.
562
00:29:24,162 --> 00:29:26,712
I'm still his legal foster parent.
I need to know his condition.
563
00:29:30,836 --> 00:29:33,136
I'll get right on it.
564
00:29:38,393 --> 00:29:41,428
Hey, what've you got for me? The
owner of the gun is Earl Delancy.
565
00:29:41,496 --> 00:29:44,297
Hey, I've seen that name. In
Fallbrook Rubber's employment roster.
566
00:29:44,365 --> 00:29:47,466
Delancy used to work there. Says
he came to D.C. looking for work.
567
00:29:47,535 --> 00:29:49,468
Oh, great. Hold
on to that. Thanks.
568
00:29:49,537 --> 00:29:51,337
Mr. Delancy,
569
00:29:51,406 --> 00:29:54,190
you worked at Fallbrook
Rubber before you came to D.C.
570
00:29:54,259 --> 00:29:58,094
Yeah. I got laid off a
couple of months ago.
571
00:29:58,162 --> 00:30:00,107
Surprised that place
is still in business.
572
00:30:00,131 --> 00:30:02,059
So you knew Meg
Taylor? Sure. Yeah.
573
00:30:02,083 --> 00:30:04,234
Can't picture her
with a gun though.
574
00:30:04,303 --> 00:30:06,269
She was sweet as they come.
575
00:30:06,338 --> 00:30:08,638
The gun was registered to you.
576
00:30:08,706 --> 00:30:10,540
But I haven't seen it
in a couple of years.
577
00:30:10,608 --> 00:30:13,326
I pawned it when things
first started getting tight.
578
00:30:13,395 --> 00:30:15,275
It's illegal for pawn
shops to buy guns.
579
00:30:17,082 --> 00:30:18,732
Lle.
580
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,568
People do whatever
it takes to stay afloat.
581
00:30:21,636 --> 00:30:25,488
It says here in your file that you assaulted
the plant manager when he laid you off.
582
00:30:25,556 --> 00:30:28,019
- Also took a swing
at Dave Shepard?
- That's right, yeah.
583
00:30:28,043 --> 00:30:30,876
Look, that "sumbitch" drives
up from D.C. every few months.
584
00:30:30,945 --> 00:30:34,781
And when he leaves, five
more of us are out on our asses.
585
00:30:34,850 --> 00:30:39,102
Sure I took a swing at him. I'd
do it again, too, if I ever saw him.
586
00:30:39,170 --> 00:30:41,120
Where's the pawn shop?
587
00:30:41,189 --> 00:30:43,790
Corner of Elm and Wilson.
588
00:30:43,858 --> 00:30:45,858
Went out of business though.
589
00:30:45,927 --> 00:30:48,194
Too many people selling.
590
00:30:48,262 --> 00:30:50,296
Not enough people buying.
591
00:30:52,867 --> 00:30:56,820
This gun's covered in a
fine dust of particulate matter.
592
00:30:56,888 --> 00:30:58,822
It's gonna take a while to I.D.
593
00:30:58,890 --> 00:31:02,926
The fragments inside the
gun's barrel are bone. Really?
594
00:31:04,663 --> 00:31:08,447
To get blowback like that, somebody
would have to have been shot point-blank.
595
00:31:08,516 --> 00:31:12,635
In the head. Brain tissue on the fragments
means they're from a frontal bone.
596
00:31:12,704 --> 00:31:15,938
Wow. Think maybe our
victim shot somebody?
597
00:31:16,007 --> 00:31:19,742
If she did, then why would she
put the gun in the safe-deposit box?
598
00:31:19,811 --> 00:31:23,095
It's not logical.
Yeah, you're right.
599
00:31:23,164 --> 00:31:25,348
Well, we'll soon know for sure.
600
00:31:25,416 --> 00:31:28,784
- What do you mean?
- I identified the residue
that's on the gun's trigger.
601
00:31:28,853 --> 00:31:33,373
It's burned skin. Finger must've gotten caught
and burned when the shooter fired the gun.
602
00:31:33,441 --> 00:31:35,692
Cam should be able
to get some D.N.A.
603
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,760
Hey, Bones. The pawn shop... it closed
last year. No one has seen the owner.
604
00:31:38,813 --> 00:31:41,798
I mean, this gun... that could've
been floating around for months.
605
00:31:41,866 --> 00:31:44,834
♪♪ Hey, little man!
606
00:31:44,903 --> 00:31:48,137
- Yeah, Bones,
what's with the Muzak?
- I'm on hold.
607
00:31:48,206 --> 00:31:50,917
There's an anthropologically proven
link between poverty and violence.
608
00:31:50,941 --> 00:31:55,060
- More people competing
for scarcer resources.
- Well, that's great, Bones.
609
00:31:55,130 --> 00:31:58,481
The bottom line is, we're not gonna
know if the gun owner is telling the truth.
610
00:31:58,549 --> 00:32:01,133
Dr. Brennan? Uh...
611
00:32:01,202 --> 00:32:03,853
- Yes, I'm still here.
- Oh, hey. Hey.
612
00:32:03,922 --> 00:32:08,408
Well, then tell the congressman I'd
appreciate a call back. Thank you.
613
00:32:08,476 --> 00:32:12,328
Congressman? Oh,
what is Bones up to, huh?
614
00:32:12,396 --> 00:32:14,375
Well, I'm just
putting in a few calls.
615
00:32:14,399 --> 00:32:16,860
I've contributed a great deal of
money to numerous campaigns.
616
00:32:16,884 --> 00:32:20,131
- These politicians owe me.
- Bones, that's not how
it's supposed to work.
617
00:32:20,155 --> 00:32:22,688
That is exactly how
it does work, Booth.
618
00:32:22,757 --> 00:32:25,068
If the government fixed that
bridge leading into Huntsville,
619
00:32:25,092 --> 00:32:27,092
they'd be back on
the scenic route.
620
00:32:27,128 --> 00:32:29,873
Okay, what about the lack of fiscal
resources that you were talking about?
621
00:32:29,897 --> 00:32:33,866
They found millions to build
a bridge to nowhere in Alaska.
622
00:32:35,353 --> 00:32:37,386
- Do you need to burp?
- No.
623
00:32:39,190 --> 00:32:41,652
- I was talking to Andy.
- I know you were talking
about Andy.
624
00:32:41,676 --> 00:32:44,410
My man Andy. So what's
up with the little guy here?
625
00:32:44,479 --> 00:32:46,879
How is his condition? Any news?
626
00:32:46,948 --> 00:32:49,309
Cam's still looking at his records,
consulting with some pediatricians.
627
00:32:49,333 --> 00:32:52,902
Yeah, he's gonna be just
fine, isn't he? He's a tiger.
628
00:32:52,971 --> 00:32:54,953
Tiger, tiger, tiger, tiger.
629
00:32:55,022 --> 00:32:57,134
Tiger, tiger, tiger, tiger.
Tiger, tiger, tiger, tiger.
630
00:32:57,158 --> 00:33:00,304
Verbal development would be heightened
if you didn't talk to him like a fool.
631
00:33:00,328 --> 00:33:02,306
And what were you just
doing just then? What?
632
00:33:02,330 --> 00:33:04,308
- I wasn't doing anything.
- You were going...
633
00:33:04,332 --> 00:33:05,776
What are you even talking
about? I never did that.
634
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,296
"Cute little baby." That's what
you sounded like. Hey. Hello.
635
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,298
I have some info about the skin
Hodgins found on the gun's trigger.
636
00:33:11,322 --> 00:33:14,173
- Yeah?
- It was male.
637
00:33:14,242 --> 00:33:16,242
Not Meg Taylor.
638
00:33:16,311 --> 00:33:18,744
So Meg was either
an accomplice...
639
00:33:18,813 --> 00:33:21,630
Or she witnessed the murder,
got her hands on the gun then hid it.
640
00:33:21,699 --> 00:33:23,616
Whoa.
641
00:33:23,685 --> 00:33:25,818
Excuse me. Booth.
642
00:33:25,887 --> 00:33:28,654
- Yeah. Huntsville?
- Yeah!
643
00:33:28,723 --> 00:33:30,535
Bones, we just found
our missing accountant.
644
00:33:30,559 --> 00:33:33,593
He used his credit card to
check into a motel near Huntsville.
645
00:33:33,662 --> 00:33:37,680
Great. Thanks. Local police
are picking him up now.
646
00:33:40,635 --> 00:33:42,568
Right here.
647
00:33:44,339 --> 00:33:47,006
You're kidding me, right?
648
00:33:47,075 --> 00:33:50,777
- This is not Dave Shepard. You're not Dave Shepard.
- Tell me something I don't know.
649
00:33:50,845 --> 00:33:54,814
- How did you end up
with his credit card?
- It was inside that bag.
650
00:33:54,883 --> 00:33:57,366
I found it in a trash heap
near the old coal mine.
651
00:33:57,435 --> 00:33:59,530
I thought my luck had changed.
652
00:33:59,554 --> 00:34:02,271
- Was there blood on this bag
when you found it?
- I guess.
653
00:34:02,340 --> 00:34:04,941
Hey, can I have the
sweaters? They're really soft.
654
00:34:05,009 --> 00:34:07,860
I'll take the bag, everything in it,
back to D.C. Cut this guy loose.
655
00:34:07,929 --> 00:34:09,595
Cut me loose? Yeah.
656
00:34:09,664 --> 00:34:12,493
I don't mind staying here. You
know, a couple of nights maybe.
657
00:34:12,517 --> 00:34:16,035
What do you say?
Couple of nights.
658
00:34:16,104 --> 00:34:19,005
So this Dave Shepard
guy is an accountant?
659
00:34:19,074 --> 00:34:21,641
That's usually not a profession
I associate with killers.
660
00:34:21,709 --> 00:34:25,177
Booth thinks that our victim may have
seen Dave Shepard shoot someone.
661
00:34:25,246 --> 00:34:29,015
Since he's been missing since
her death, he could've killed her too.
662
00:34:29,084 --> 00:34:31,317
Yeah, well, tell Booth
I just found the guy.
663
00:34:31,386 --> 00:34:33,302
Or parts of his skull anyway.
664
00:34:33,371 --> 00:34:35,888
I ran the D.N.A. from the
blood on the duffel bag,
665
00:34:35,957 --> 00:34:38,307
and the frontal bone fragments
from the gun through CODIS.
666
00:34:38,375 --> 00:34:42,579
- Both his.
- So Shepard isn't our killer. He's another victim.
667
00:34:42,647 --> 00:34:46,065
He was shot in the head by a male,
with the gun Meg Taylor was trying to hide.
668
00:34:46,134 --> 00:34:49,368
- Hey, you wanted me?
- Yeah.
669
00:34:49,437 --> 00:34:52,972
There was a flash drive in
Dave Shepard's duffel bag.
670
00:34:54,309 --> 00:34:56,542
- It's crushed.
- That's where you come in.
671
00:34:56,611 --> 00:34:59,756
We need to know if Dave Shepard found
something that could've gotten him killed.
672
00:34:59,780 --> 00:35:02,114
Okay. I'll get right on it.
673
00:35:03,685 --> 00:35:06,936
Did you call your
pediatrician friend?
674
00:35:07,004 --> 00:35:09,433
He's on his way. And
you know he's good, right?
675
00:35:09,457 --> 00:35:12,002
Because we have to be certain. Dr. Brennan,
he's the chief of Pediatrics...
676
00:35:12,026 --> 00:35:13,960
at Children's National
Medical Center.
677
00:35:14,028 --> 00:35:17,229
He's the best.
678
00:35:21,319 --> 00:35:24,086
Hi, beautiful. You
coming to visit?
679
00:35:24,155 --> 00:35:27,957
Yeah. I need some cotton
swabs and some bleach.
680
00:35:28,026 --> 00:35:30,710
I'm cleaning dried
blood off that flash drive.
681
00:35:37,135 --> 00:35:39,202
You do want kids, don't you?
682
00:35:40,538 --> 00:35:42,454
What?
683
00:35:42,524 --> 00:35:46,425
Kids. Small humans.
684
00:35:46,494 --> 00:35:49,161
I'll admit, I only ever
planned on one or two, but...
685
00:35:51,232 --> 00:35:53,899
If you want a million,
I want a million.
686
00:35:53,968 --> 00:35:58,421
Really? Absolutely. I don't care
if you're mushy and shapeless.
687
00:35:58,489 --> 00:36:02,474
Puffy from constant
hormonal fluctuations.
688
00:36:02,543 --> 00:36:05,978
I'll still find you sexy. Well,
I'm not gonna look like I'm...
689
00:36:06,047 --> 00:36:08,730
It's okay. When you get wider,
there'll be more of you to love.
690
00:36:08,799 --> 00:36:12,118
I think we should start right now.
Why wait until we get married?
691
00:36:12,186 --> 00:36:14,865
There's no telling how long it's
gonna take you to get your divorce.
692
00:36:14,889 --> 00:36:17,173
Hodgins...
693
00:36:17,242 --> 00:36:20,826
Your computer
is... It's beeping.
694
00:36:21,896 --> 00:36:23,896
Oh.
695
00:36:27,985 --> 00:36:30,266
That's interesting. What is it?
696
00:36:30,305 --> 00:36:32,455
Particulates from the gun.
697
00:36:32,523 --> 00:36:35,924
The dust was composed of silica,
sulfur compounds and synthetic rubbers.
698
00:36:35,994 --> 00:36:38,160
Sounds like tires.
699
00:36:38,229 --> 00:36:40,896
The gun was used at
the tire recycling plant.
700
00:36:43,368 --> 00:36:45,517
I'm not gonna get wider.
701
00:36:45,586 --> 00:36:48,254
Thanks.
702
00:36:48,322 --> 00:36:51,018
- What exactly
are you looking for?
- We're not sure yet.
703
00:36:51,042 --> 00:36:54,493
Anything that'll help us figure out what
happened to Dave Shepard and Meg Taylor.
704
00:36:54,562 --> 00:36:57,296
Okay, people, back to work!
705
00:36:57,364 --> 00:37:00,099
You let them do their
job, they'll let us do ours.
706
00:37:11,378 --> 00:37:13,629
Where you going? Bones!
707
00:37:13,698 --> 00:37:16,398
Hey, pal. Here. Hold on to this.
708
00:37:16,467 --> 00:37:19,985
Bones, where are you going? Hey!
709
00:37:20,054 --> 00:37:22,805
Booth, look at this.
710
00:37:25,376 --> 00:37:27,409
Turn off the machine.
711
00:37:28,896 --> 00:37:31,146
If I were a dead body and
I needed to disappear...
712
00:37:31,215 --> 00:37:33,293
This would be a pretty
thorough way to do it.
713
00:37:33,317 --> 00:37:35,901
Hey, pal, how often do you
ship out a load of this mulch?
714
00:37:35,970 --> 00:37:39,655
We collect a week's worth at a time,
but we bag it up every couple hours.
715
00:37:39,723 --> 00:37:42,069
Dave disappeared four days
ago. He could still be here.
716
00:37:42,093 --> 00:37:45,043
It's this lot right here.
717
00:37:45,112 --> 00:37:46,640
Hey, Bones? Yeah?
718
00:37:46,664 --> 00:37:48,909
This lot was collected right
after Dave's disappearance.
719
00:37:48,933 --> 00:37:50,944
Everything's washed, sanitized
and ready to be shipped.
720
00:37:50,968 --> 00:37:53,431
- That means that all the
evidence has been washed away.
- Not necessarily.
721
00:37:53,455 --> 00:37:55,655
Scoop up some of the mulch.
722
00:38:01,746 --> 00:38:03,745
Put it in this water.
723
00:38:09,754 --> 00:38:12,316
- Next bag.
- Aw, Bones, what exactly
are we doing here?
724
00:38:12,340 --> 00:38:14,856
I'll explain in a minute.
725
00:38:15,860 --> 00:38:17,700
Try the next bag. Next bag.
726
00:38:20,848 --> 00:38:23,182
Next bag.
727
00:38:23,251 --> 00:38:25,718
The rubber pieces
float. You see?
728
00:38:28,539 --> 00:38:30,956
But bone...
729
00:38:32,943 --> 00:38:34,877
Sinks.
730
00:38:34,946 --> 00:38:37,280
We just found Dave.
731
00:38:37,348 --> 00:38:41,417
Tell the manager to
shut this plant down now.
732
00:38:41,485 --> 00:38:44,770
- Brennan.
- Brennan, it's me. Turn on your video stream.
733
00:38:44,839 --> 00:38:48,407
- Is Andy all right?
- The pediatrician
is examining him right now.
734
00:38:48,476 --> 00:38:50,776
The baby is fine.
735
00:38:50,845 --> 00:38:52,778
Take a look at this.
736
00:38:52,847 --> 00:38:55,781
I recovered most of the
memory from that flash drive.
737
00:38:55,850 --> 00:38:58,762
Dave Shepard's internal audit showed
a completely different set of numbers...
738
00:38:58,786 --> 00:39:00,786
than those reported to
corporate headquarters.
739
00:39:00,855 --> 00:39:03,556
Somebody was
doctoring the profit reports.
740
00:39:03,624 --> 00:39:05,386
Siphoning money
into a private account.
741
00:39:05,410 --> 00:39:07,804
Dave figured it out while he was in
Huntsville. That's what got him killed.
742
00:39:07,828 --> 00:39:11,680
And if Meg knew about it, then the
killer would want her dead too. Come on.
743
00:39:11,732 --> 00:39:13,560
- Hey, where's Barnett?
- Chip left.
744
00:39:13,584 --> 00:39:16,435
- Where'd he go?
- He said he had
an emergency at home.
745
00:39:29,767 --> 00:39:31,867
Oh, damn!
746
00:39:57,828 --> 00:39:59,762
Come on!
747
00:39:59,830 --> 00:40:02,092
Chip Barnett, you're under
arrest for eluding a federal agent.
748
00:40:02,116 --> 00:40:04,978
I'm sure we'll be throwing in
a few murder charges as well.
749
00:40:05,002 --> 00:40:08,204
You know your
rights, yeah? Yeah.
750
00:40:08,272 --> 00:40:10,890
It's only a matter of time
before they close the plant.
751
00:40:10,959 --> 00:40:13,909
You embezzled from the company. A
man does what he has to for his family.
752
00:40:13,978 --> 00:40:16,312
So that justifies killing
two innocent people?
753
00:40:16,380 --> 00:40:18,848
Shepard was gonna turn
me in. So you shot him.
754
00:40:18,916 --> 00:40:21,745
Meg witnessed it, got a hold of the
gun. She wanted money to keep quiet.
755
00:40:21,769 --> 00:40:24,069
Take her kid to
some doctor in D.C.
756
00:40:24,138 --> 00:40:26,784
So you knew where she was
headed. You followed her out of town...
757
00:40:26,808 --> 00:40:29,048
so you could kill her
with no one around.
758
00:40:29,110 --> 00:40:31,043
I didn't want to kill her.
759
00:40:31,112 --> 00:40:33,345
I went to her trailer. I
looked for the gun first.
760
00:40:33,414 --> 00:40:36,515
But you do what you have to...
There was a baby in that car.
761
00:40:36,584 --> 00:40:39,018
You son of a bitch!
762
00:40:43,791 --> 00:40:46,692
Hi. Hey.
763
00:40:50,298 --> 00:40:52,448
One of the techs found
this in Meg's trailer.
764
00:40:52,516 --> 00:40:57,269
- What is it?
- A letter that Meg wrote
to her friend, Carol Grant.
765
00:40:58,339 --> 00:41:01,740
Hey. Andy has a
genetic condition.
766
00:41:01,809 --> 00:41:05,744
- What is it?
- Vitamin "D" -resistant rickets. Meg had a mild form.
767
00:41:05,813 --> 00:41:08,058
Very few symptoms. She
probably didn't even know she had it.
768
00:41:08,082 --> 00:41:11,267
But males are prone to more
severe cases than females,
769
00:41:11,335 --> 00:41:13,869
so Andy would've exhibited
more extreme symptomatology.
770
00:41:13,937 --> 00:41:15,888
Including the seizures.
771
00:41:15,957 --> 00:41:19,503
The clinic probably prescribed him the Phenobarbital
without searching for underlying causes.
772
00:41:19,527 --> 00:41:22,228
Well, is Andy
gonna be all right?
773
00:41:22,296 --> 00:41:24,880
Absolutely. Very treatable.
774
00:41:24,948 --> 00:41:27,749
My friend can treat
him as an outpatient.
775
00:41:27,818 --> 00:41:31,404
- Andy's gonna be fine.
- Thanks, Cam.
776
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,874
- Really.
- Mmm. Don't mention it.
777
00:41:36,944 --> 00:41:38,894
Yeah! You're gonna be fine.
778
00:41:38,963 --> 00:41:42,598
Looks like our little
guy's gonna be just fine.
779
00:41:46,521 --> 00:41:48,620
The little guy.
780
00:41:48,689 --> 00:41:50,773
Andy.
781
00:41:50,842 --> 00:41:53,141
Andy's gonna be just fine.
782
00:41:54,195 --> 00:41:56,228
You should read this.
783
00:41:58,048 --> 00:41:59,982
"Dear Carol.
784
00:42:00,050 --> 00:42:04,319
"If anything happens to
me, take care of my Andy.
785
00:42:04,388 --> 00:42:06,321
"I know you don't have much...
786
00:42:06,390 --> 00:42:09,592
"none of us do...
But you have love,
787
00:42:09,660 --> 00:42:13,829
and I know Andy would be
lucky to be part of your family."
788
00:43:01,712 --> 00:43:03,990
You know, I'm gonna
miss that little guy.
789
00:43:04,014 --> 00:43:06,160
And so are you,
so don't deny it.
790
00:43:06,184 --> 00:43:11,236
I'm not ashamed to say that I've
developed a certain... affection for Andy.
791
00:43:11,305 --> 00:43:13,371
It's a natural
by-product of caregiving.
792
00:43:13,441 --> 00:43:16,308
Yeah. So...
793
00:43:16,376 --> 00:43:19,645
What do you think? Huh? Change
your mind about having kids?
794
00:43:19,713 --> 00:43:21,997
- Booth.
- Okay. All right.
795
00:43:22,066 --> 00:43:25,518
You got some time.
796
00:43:25,586 --> 00:43:27,886
Not that much time.
797
00:43:27,955 --> 00:43:29,635
Booth! Hey!
798
00:43:29,690 --> 00:43:31,723
Oh! Now look what you did.
799
00:43:31,792 --> 00:43:34,677
What I did? You're
the one who hit me.
800
00:43:34,745 --> 00:43:36,773
Oh, what is all
this stuff? What...
801
00:43:36,797 --> 00:43:40,549
It's information Carol gave
me from a structural engineer.
802
00:43:40,618 --> 00:43:43,997
Ah. So you took my financial
advice, didn't you? Hmm?
803
00:43:44,021 --> 00:43:45,999
You're gonna build that home.
804
00:43:46,023 --> 00:43:48,107
No. The congressman
couldn't help,
805
00:43:48,175 --> 00:43:50,775
so I'm rebuilding the
bridge into Huntsville.
806
00:43:50,844 --> 00:43:53,862
I've hired Carol Grant as
the project manager. Wow.
807
00:43:53,930 --> 00:43:56,643
That is gonna cost a
fortune. To you it's a fortune.
808
00:43:56,667 --> 00:43:59,852
But with my advance and
selling the movie rights...
809
00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:01,870
Yeah, I get it.
810
00:44:01,939 --> 00:44:04,885
You know, I thought you said that
towns lived and died like organisms,
811
00:44:04,909 --> 00:44:07,526
that sometimes we
should just let them go.
812
00:44:07,595 --> 00:44:12,314
And sometimes all it takes is one thing, like
a bridge, for a town to start recovering.
813
00:44:12,382 --> 00:44:16,534
Back on the scenic route, the gas
stations could reopen, restaurants...
814
00:44:16,603 --> 00:44:19,437
Maybe a bed-and-breakfast for
people who wanted to stay in the area.
815
00:44:19,506 --> 00:44:21,773
Wow.
816
00:44:21,842 --> 00:44:24,910
Listen to you. Good for you.
817
00:44:28,599 --> 00:44:31,433
You know, it's, um...
818
00:44:31,502 --> 00:44:34,253
It's a shame. What?
819
00:44:34,322 --> 00:44:36,332
No kids. Who's
gonna be proud of you?
820
00:44:36,356 --> 00:44:39,596
I don't do it for that.
Yeah, okay. I know. I know.
821
00:44:40,678 --> 00:44:42,856
You know, with next year's
book, you should, uh...
822
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,158
You should get that second
home in the town you saved.
823
00:44:45,182 --> 00:44:47,193
I mean, it only
makes sense, right?
824
00:44:47,217 --> 00:44:49,179
Because every year, the
plasmas... They go down.
825
00:44:49,203 --> 00:44:51,297
They get cheaper and
cheaper. It happens all the time.
826
00:44:51,321 --> 00:44:53,304
Forget it. What?
827
00:44:53,373 --> 00:44:57,359
I'm just saying Andy's gonna miss his
Auntie Bones. Gonna want to see you.
828
00:44:57,428 --> 00:45:00,112
We could all go fishing.
Come back home.
829
00:45:00,180 --> 00:45:05,034
Plop ourselves in front of that
big 103-inch plasma screen...
830
00:45:05,102 --> 00:45:07,803
of heaven... and football.
831
00:45:07,872 --> 00:45:10,751
And you can make the
five-layer dip! Seven-layer dip.
832
00:45:10,775 --> 00:45:12,736
Even better. Seven
layers. Perfect.
833
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:14,654
You can talk to
Andy. "Hello, Andy.
834
00:45:14,678 --> 00:45:18,113
Little man. Little
baby, baby Andy"...
835
00:45:53,433 --> 00:45:54,833
What's that mean?
