1
00:00:04,733 --> 00:00:08,806
- What do you know about the Caymans?
- Great diving. Why? Are you going?
2
00:00:08,893 --> 00:00:11,088
My accountant wants me
to set up a tax shelter.
3
00:00:11,173 --> 00:00:13,562
Tax shelter? Exactly how loaded are you?
4
00:00:13,653 --> 00:00:17,805
That is an offensive way to phrase
the question, but quite loaded.
5
00:00:17,893 --> 00:00:21,408
I'm betting a seven-figure advance
for my next book.
6
00:00:21,493 --> 00:00:25,042
Seven... figures? Wow.
Without the decimal point?
7
00:00:25,133 --> 00:00:30,844
- The publishers make considerably more.
- What's the first of those seven figures?
8
00:00:30,933 --> 00:00:34,687
- Prime number. What do you do with money?
- I use it for food and rent.
9
00:00:43,453 --> 00:00:45,444
- What have we got?
- Agent Booth?
10
00:00:45,533 --> 00:00:47,967
Special Agent Booth. This is my partner...
11
00:00:48,053 --> 00:00:51,523
- Dr Temperance Brennan.
- Somebody ran the car off the road?
12
00:00:51,613 --> 00:00:56,323
The gravel makes it impossible
to get any traceable tyre marks.
13
00:00:56,413 --> 00:00:59,883
The victim was doused with gasoline
and then set on fire.
14
00:00:59,973 --> 00:01:02,806
Farmer three miles away saw the smoke.
Called it in.
15
00:01:02,893 --> 00:01:04,804
It's female.
16
00:01:04,893 --> 00:01:08,044
Probably in her early 20s.
17
00:01:08,133 --> 00:01:10,567
Preauricular sulcus on the iliac.
18
00:01:10,653 --> 00:01:12,530
She's given birth.
19
00:01:12,973 --> 00:01:17,012
Ran off the side of the road, set on fire.
Somebody wanted her dead.
20
00:01:17,093 --> 00:01:21,211
That's why I need your help. I only got
six deputies covering 400 square miles.
21
00:01:21,293 --> 00:01:23,966
I'm stretched thinner than plastic wrap.
22
00:01:24,053 --> 00:01:27,204
Compound fractures
to the right tibia and fibula.
23
00:01:27,293 --> 00:01:31,252
Crushed manubrium, massive skull trauma.
I'm not certain yet...
24
00:01:31,333 --> 00:01:34,450
...whether she died in the accident or the fire.
25
00:01:34,533 --> 00:01:36,967
Shh! You hear that?
26
00:01:39,973 --> 00:01:42,407
Everybody, keep quiet. Stop working.
27
00:01:42,493 --> 00:01:45,769
- Do you hear that?
- It sounds like a cat.
28
00:01:48,413 --> 00:01:51,086
It's a baby.
29
00:01:56,293 --> 00:01:59,205
- Holy crap.
- Get a ladder down here now.
30
00:01:59,293 --> 00:02:01,170
All right, let's move!
31
00:02:02,093 --> 00:02:04,448
There's not a scratch on him. It's a miracle.
32
00:02:04,533 --> 00:02:08,492
Well, hardly. Car seats are specifically
engineered to protect the child.
33
00:02:08,573 --> 00:02:12,964
From what? Flying out of
the back of a car and landing in a tree?
34
00:02:13,053 --> 00:02:16,728
He looks a little fussy. Why don't you
pick him up and give him a cuddle?
35
00:02:16,813 --> 00:02:21,250
Just because I have breasts doesn't mean
that I have magical powers over infants.
36
00:02:21,333 --> 00:02:24,803
I'll take him. You have fun
with the diaper bag. You look good.
37
00:02:24,893 --> 00:02:28,602
Come on, little man. Whoa-ho-ho! Hi.
38
00:02:28,693 --> 00:02:32,049
Why don't you say hi
to your grumpy old Auntie Bones?
39
00:02:32,133 --> 00:02:34,169
No, I am not grumpy.
40
00:02:34,253 --> 00:02:38,212
The... the vinyl seat melted
and fused to the body,
41
00:02:38,293 --> 00:02:43,492
so we need that brought back,
and the driver's door for particulate evidence.
42
00:02:43,573 --> 00:02:47,725
The kid smells a little ripe.
You might want to take care of that.
43
00:02:47,813 --> 00:02:50,566
OK. I'll change him.
Just hold onto him.
44
00:02:50,653 --> 00:02:53,486
- Whoa. What?
- Here you go. Got him? OK.
45
00:02:53,573 --> 00:02:57,088
All right. Here we go.
We'll work together on this one.
46
00:02:57,573 --> 00:03:00,645
Changing diapers 101, Bones.
Here we go. Little big man.
47
00:03:00,733 --> 00:03:05,045
OK, watch your head. Here, we'll put you
down right here. Look at that. All right.
48
00:03:05,133 --> 00:03:07,886
- Give me a diaper there, Bones.
- Here you go.
49
00:03:07,973 --> 00:03:10,407
- Thanks. Baby powder.
- No, you know, Booth,
50
00:03:10,493 --> 00:03:13,883
I have better things to do with my time.
51
00:03:13,973 --> 00:03:16,282
- There's no powder.
- No powder?
52
00:03:16,373 --> 00:03:18,489
Hey. Wait a minute.
53
00:03:21,413 --> 00:03:26,567
- Where did that come from?
- A rip in the lining. Someone was hiding it.
54
00:03:26,653 --> 00:03:30,282
I'll get an evidence bag
and ask if EMT have any powder. Watch him.
55
00:03:30,373 --> 00:03:34,127
Wait. Wait, wait. Booth, there's a baby.
I don't feel comfor...
56
00:03:37,613 --> 00:03:39,763
Coochie-coo.
57
00:03:39,853 --> 00:03:43,482
Oh, no, no. No need to fuss.
Obviously something's upsetting you.
58
00:03:43,573 --> 00:03:47,327
Children have toys.
You must have some. Let me see.
59
00:03:47,413 --> 00:03:51,292
You know, elephants are not purple.
This is wrong.
60
00:03:52,373 --> 00:03:54,568
Hey, look at that. He flipped over.
61
00:03:54,653 --> 00:03:57,929
Bones, that's because you gotta watch him.
Jeez! OK, whoa.
62
00:03:58,013 --> 00:04:03,451
All right. If you're gonna be on my jacket,
we gotta get you out of that dirty diaper.
63
00:04:03,533 --> 00:04:06,684
- Whoa. OK, where's the key?
- I put it on your jacket.
64
00:04:06,773 --> 00:04:09,128
- Next to the baby?
- Yeah.
65
00:04:09,213 --> 00:04:12,410
Do you know that babies
put everything in their mouth?
66
00:04:12,493 --> 00:04:16,691
He could swallow the key. It's so dangerous.
All right, look for the key. Shh.
67
00:04:16,773 --> 00:04:20,004
Oh, look. OK, look.
Key, Bones. Look for the key.
68
00:04:20,573 --> 00:04:22,882
It's not here. Oh, no.
69
00:04:22,973 --> 00:04:26,682
- He must've swallowed...
- Swallowed it.
70
00:04:27,053 --> 00:04:29,806
OK, here you go. Get used to him.
71
00:04:29,893 --> 00:04:32,043
- What?
- That key was evidence.
72
00:04:32,133 --> 00:04:37,207
You know how chain of custody works. That
kid stays with us until we get the key back.
73
00:04:37,293 --> 00:04:39,488
Oh! Ah.
74
00:04:39,573 --> 00:04:43,361
Ooh. Whew! That's a stream.
75
00:05:13,693 --> 00:05:17,129
I've never seen anything so gorgeous
on this table before.
76
00:05:17,213 --> 00:05:20,683
- Or so alive.
- Why is Dr Brennan the official custodian?
77
00:05:20,773 --> 00:05:25,893
She's a registered foster parent. Russ asked
her to do it after he began his prison term.
78
00:05:25,973 --> 00:05:30,012
To make sure his stepdaughters
are taken care of if anything happens to Amy.
79
00:05:30,093 --> 00:05:31,970
Prodigious saliva production.
80
00:05:32,053 --> 00:05:36,888
OK. Now we can determine
if the little guy really did swallow a key,
81
00:05:36,973 --> 00:05:39,362
or if he has been falsely accused.
82
00:05:41,013 --> 00:05:44,972
Wow. Unless he's had a hip replacement,
sounds like there's a key in there.
83
00:05:45,053 --> 00:05:47,009
He liked it. Do it again.
84
00:05:49,293 --> 00:05:52,763
- What are you doing?
- We're just...
85
00:05:52,853 --> 00:05:56,289
We verified that the baby
did indeed swallow the key.
86
00:05:56,373 --> 00:05:58,648
Then X-ray him to get a clear view of it.
87
00:05:58,733 --> 00:06:02,487
He's not a plaything. And you're supposed
to be examining the victim.
88
00:06:02,573 --> 00:06:06,361
We thought it would be bad
to examine the remains in front of the baby.
89
00:06:06,453 --> 00:06:10,526
- Creepy formative memory.
- Then would you take him for a little while?
90
00:06:10,613 --> 00:06:12,410
I'd love to.
91
00:06:17,213 --> 00:06:20,569
Get used to it.
I want, like, a million of these.
92
00:06:20,653 --> 00:06:22,769
Cool.
93
00:06:25,013 --> 00:06:28,164
What do you think she meant
by a million? Two?
94
00:06:31,493 --> 00:06:34,291
Agent Booth? Got a hit on your burned car.
95
00:06:34,373 --> 00:06:38,286
- It was registered to a dead guy.
- Dead woman driving a dead man's car.
96
00:06:38,373 --> 00:06:42,082
Plates expired five years ago.
Family said they sold the car for scrap
97
00:06:42,173 --> 00:06:44,892
at a junkyard
in Seneca Rocks, West Virginia.
98
00:06:44,973 --> 00:06:49,888
Let me guess. Junkyard guy sells off the old
heaps to people who want to get off the grid.
99
00:06:49,973 --> 00:06:53,363
Operation got shut down two years ago.
No one's seen him since.
100
00:06:53,453 --> 00:06:58,481
Let me know if forensics finds anything
to help Bones ID the remains.
101
00:06:58,573 --> 00:07:03,408
Is it true Dr Brennan's taking care of
the baby? That's something I'd pay to see.
102
00:07:03,493 --> 00:07:06,053
Goodbye, Charlie.
103
00:07:07,773 --> 00:07:11,812
The victim exhibits enlarged
hypertrophic lesions at muscle attachments.
104
00:07:11,893 --> 00:07:15,806
The result of strenuous activity,
most likely occupational.
105
00:07:15,893 --> 00:07:18,487
Ligamenta flava shows evidence of whiplash.
106
00:07:18,573 --> 00:07:23,203
All the perimortem injuries
are consistent with vehicular trauma.
107
00:07:23,293 --> 00:07:26,842
Zack, grind some bones
so Hodgins can perform an isotope analysis,
108
00:07:26,933 --> 00:07:28,844
maybe figure out where she lived.
109
00:07:28,933 --> 00:07:33,051
- Junior made us a little present.
- The key, finally.
110
00:07:33,133 --> 00:07:39,322
Not yet. This is just the usual present,
but with one major difference.
111
00:07:39,413 --> 00:07:44,089
- I assume pink isn't a normal colour for this.
- Does yours ever look pink?
112
00:07:44,173 --> 00:07:47,131
- No, but I'm not an infant.
- Where is the baby?
113
00:07:47,213 --> 00:07:50,250
In your office.
I was gonna start the reconstruction.
114
00:07:50,333 --> 00:07:55,453
- He's my charge. I'll sit with him.
- Let me run some tests.
115
00:07:55,533 --> 00:07:59,651
Actually, one time when I was visiting
my cousins, we ate a lot of beets.
116
00:07:59,733 --> 00:08:03,408
- And the next day...
- Zack, really, too much sharing.
117
00:08:04,333 --> 00:08:07,291
You know, you look very mom-like
with that baby monitor.
118
00:08:07,373 --> 00:08:10,046
I have responsibilities
as a foster parent.
119
00:08:10,133 --> 00:08:13,728
- I already bought him toys and clothes.
- Ah, you bought him clothes.
120
00:08:13,813 --> 00:08:18,011
I sent an intern who loves bears,
which in reality would devour a small child.
121
00:08:18,093 --> 00:08:22,564
- I tested the bone for strontium.
- Strontium is found in most rocks.
122
00:08:22,653 --> 00:08:26,328
Humans absorb it through the consumption
of local vegetation and water.
123
00:08:26,413 --> 00:08:28,927
Over time the isotope collects in the bones...
124
00:08:29,013 --> 00:08:32,244
You can use it to figure out
where someone's from.
125
00:08:32,333 --> 00:08:36,121
That is right, people.
I am a constant surprise.
126
00:08:38,613 --> 00:08:41,650
I don't understand. He's been fed.
He was changed.
127
00:08:41,733 --> 00:08:45,362
- I patted him. Now he's complaining.
- He's acting like a real baby.
128
00:08:45,453 --> 00:08:49,651
The victim was from northern West Virginia.
Tucker County, to be more precise.
129
00:08:49,733 --> 00:08:52,452
Are you sure?
The crash was in Pendleton.
130
00:08:52,533 --> 00:08:55,923
Particulate matter collected
from the salvaged area of the car
131
00:08:56,013 --> 00:08:59,323
contained guano from
a Corynorhinus townsendii viginianus.
132
00:08:59,413 --> 00:09:03,201
So we know where to look.
133
00:09:03,293 --> 00:09:05,443
- Aren't you gonna go?
- I figured you would.
134
00:09:05,533 --> 00:09:08,206
- Aren't you responsible?
- You're the baby daddy.
135
00:09:08,293 --> 00:09:11,922
- Baby daddy?
- You have prior experience with infancy.
136
00:09:12,013 --> 00:09:17,133
- You can be the daddy mommy.
- Get your act together or I'll sue for custody.
137
00:09:17,213 --> 00:09:20,046
This is my rendering of the victim.
138
00:09:22,733 --> 00:09:28,171
There are numerous genetic similarities.
Cam's running DNA tests to be sure,
139
00:09:28,253 --> 00:09:34,408
but I'm comfortable with the assessment
that this was the child's mother.
140
00:09:34,493 --> 00:09:37,929
He misses his mother. He's sad.
141
00:09:51,693 --> 00:09:54,161
We need to go to Tucker County.
142
00:09:57,373 --> 00:10:01,082
The last coal mine closed
eight years ago. This is a ghost town.
143
00:10:01,173 --> 00:10:05,246
- The local economy is devastated.
- Could be why our victim drove a junker.
144
00:10:05,333 --> 00:10:08,484
She couldn't afford
the registration, insurance.
145
00:10:08,573 --> 00:10:13,169
I don't want to sound insensitive here,
but real estate, it's gotta be a steal.
146
00:10:13,253 --> 00:10:18,407
You could build yourself a beautiful house
on the river. I could come out and fish.
147
00:10:18,493 --> 00:10:22,611
You could put in one of those media rooms.
I saw a 103-inch flat-screen TV...
148
00:10:22,693 --> 00:10:25,765
I don't need another residence, Booth.
149
00:10:25,853 --> 00:10:30,085
Just, you know, trying to give you
a little financial advice, that's all.
150
00:10:30,173 --> 00:10:32,528
He seems so peaceful.
151
00:10:32,613 --> 00:10:35,047
He has no idea that he's all alone.
152
00:10:35,133 --> 00:10:37,886
Maybe that wasn't his mom.
Maybe there's a dad.
153
00:10:37,973 --> 00:10:41,682
No one filed a report, Booth.
No one's worried about him.
154
00:10:41,773 --> 00:10:44,082
Yeah, well, you are.
155
00:10:46,893 --> 00:10:49,088
There's someone.
156
00:10:51,293 --> 00:10:55,172
- You people are from the government?
- Yes, sir. We're with the FBI.
157
00:10:55,253 --> 00:10:59,041
- You're training them young, I see.
- If you could just help us...
158
00:10:59,133 --> 00:11:04,161
Like the government helped us when the
bridge washed out, when the school closed.
159
00:11:04,253 --> 00:11:08,371
The business and industry left the area.
The local tax base is nonexistent.
160
00:11:08,453 --> 00:11:12,844
The government can't be expected to provide
services without fiscal means to do so.
161
00:11:12,933 --> 00:11:15,242
What's she say?
Are you from France?
162
00:11:15,333 --> 00:11:19,451
Economies live and die. When they expire,
the logical thing to do is to move.
163
00:11:19,533 --> 00:11:24,163
This land is part of me. I've lived here
all my life. My father before me. His father!
164
00:11:24,253 --> 00:11:28,326
- Paul, who are you hollering at now?
- They're from the government.
165
00:11:28,413 --> 00:11:32,008
- Oh, my God! You have no right at all!
- Hey, hey, hey.
166
00:11:32,093 --> 00:11:35,768
Taking people's children away?
You should be ashamed.
167
00:11:35,853 --> 00:11:38,765
That girl does the best she can
to provide for Andy.
168
00:11:38,853 --> 00:11:40,923
Andy? Do you know this baby?
169
00:11:41,013 --> 00:11:43,481
Yeah. The folks up the street.
170
00:11:43,573 --> 00:11:47,088
Carol and Jimmy Grant. They take care of him
when his momma works.
171
00:11:47,173 --> 00:11:50,006
- Is that his mother?
- Looks like her.
172
00:11:50,093 --> 00:11:52,732
But you should check with the Grants.
173
00:11:52,813 --> 00:11:56,089
What's going on?
Did something happen?
174
00:11:58,333 --> 00:12:02,884
Yeah, that's Meg. Meg Taylor.
We all went to high school together.
175
00:12:02,973 --> 00:12:07,842
- Me, Jimmy, Meg and Meg's husband Lou.
- Back when we had a high school.
176
00:12:07,933 --> 00:12:13,405
- Meg's husband? He still live around here?
- I haven't seen him lately. Not that I'd want to.
177
00:12:13,493 --> 00:12:16,803
He's in and out of jail,
does anything for a drink.
178
00:12:16,893 --> 00:12:19,282
Left Meg before Andy was born.
179
00:12:19,373 --> 00:12:22,922
I'm not sure he's even laid eyes
on Andy more than twice.
180
00:12:23,013 --> 00:12:25,288
Meg worked herself to the bone.
181
00:12:25,373 --> 00:12:29,082
We couldn't have one of our own,
so we were real happy to help Meg out.
182
00:12:29,173 --> 00:12:32,324
Meg would have to pry her away from him
at the end of the day.
183
00:12:32,413 --> 00:12:36,247
- Where did she work?
- Uh, Fallbrook Rubber. They recycle tyres.
184
00:12:36,333 --> 00:12:40,087
They turn 'em into ground coverings
for playgrounds and such.
185
00:12:40,173 --> 00:12:42,448
It's one of the only places left to work.
186
00:12:42,533 --> 00:12:45,764
How about the two of you?
You're both currently unemployed?
187
00:12:45,853 --> 00:12:49,971
No. I work part-time looking after
some of the buildings they shut down.
188
00:12:50,053 --> 00:12:54,649
Jimmy used to teach high school and I did
project management, mostly for construction,
189
00:12:54,733 --> 00:12:57,930
but now, we do what we can.
190
00:12:58,373 --> 00:13:01,524
This town used to be something.
We were on the scenic route.
191
00:13:01,613 --> 00:13:04,764
You know, people would come to visit.
It wasn't all coal.
192
00:13:04,853 --> 00:13:07,321
What'll happen to Andy?
We can watch him.
193
00:13:07,413 --> 00:13:11,531
He's gonna have to stay with us for now.
Can you tell me where Meg lived?
194
00:13:11,973 --> 00:13:14,692
It looks like
everything's closed down.
195
00:13:14,773 --> 00:13:19,767
Probably lost all its customers. No bridge.
The highway routes all the traffic away.
196
00:13:19,853 --> 00:13:23,323
Brennan.
197
00:13:23,413 --> 00:13:26,132
Got the scoop on the poop.
It was pharmaceutical dye
198
00:13:26,213 --> 00:13:30,525
used to colour the phenobarbital
that showed up in his tox screen.
199
00:13:31,933 --> 00:13:35,403
- Andy had phenobarbital in his system?
- Oh, his name's Andy?
200
00:13:35,493 --> 00:13:38,883
Adorable. I had a dog named Andy.
That came out wrong.
201
00:13:38,973 --> 00:13:42,602
- Why phenobarbital?
- It's often prescribed for seizures.
202
00:13:42,693 --> 00:13:47,084
- Perhaps the infant is epileptic.
- Don't say that. Andy's gonna be just fine.
203
00:13:47,173 --> 00:13:50,643
He was breast-feeding,
so he could have ingested the drug that way,
204
00:13:50,733 --> 00:13:53,008
but the depth of colour makes it unlikely.
205
00:13:53,093 --> 00:13:57,052
We're on our way to his mother's.
I'll see if I can find a prescription bottle.
206
00:14:02,533 --> 00:14:03,932
- OK.
- No, no, no.
207
00:14:04,013 --> 00:14:06,652
- What?
- No, no, no, no. Look.
208
00:14:06,733 --> 00:14:09,930
Front door is open. You stay here.
There is a baby involved.
209
00:14:10,013 --> 00:14:13,050
If you hear gunfire, anything like that,
drive away.
210
00:14:13,133 --> 00:14:15,203
- I'm not leaving you.
- Yes, you will,
211
00:14:15,293 --> 00:14:18,888
because this is about the baby,
not me. Promise me.
212
00:14:26,853 --> 00:14:29,162
I promise.
213
00:14:56,453 --> 00:14:57,647
Ho!
214
00:14:57,733 --> 00:15:01,282
Easy. Both hands to the ceiling.
Nice and easy. Right there.
215
00:15:01,373 --> 00:15:02,852
Whoa!
216
00:15:02,933 --> 00:15:08,291
Easy! God! You know,
I asked you very nicely.
217
00:15:12,773 --> 00:15:16,322
We will find out what happened
to your mother, I promise.
218
00:15:17,893 --> 00:15:20,453
You know, Booth is an excellent investigator
219
00:15:20,533 --> 00:15:24,845
and I don't like to boast,
but I am the best in my field.
220
00:15:26,453 --> 00:15:29,172
What do you want? Uh...
221
00:15:29,253 --> 00:15:33,326
How... how about some visual
and auditory stimulation?
222
00:15:33,413 --> 00:15:36,610
OK, let's see. Um...
223
00:15:37,293 --> 00:15:42,208
- I told you, I'm Meg's husband. I live here.
- Then why did you break the front lock?
224
00:15:42,293 --> 00:15:46,445
I didn't do it! Somebody else broke in!
I thought I'd come in and check on Meg.
225
00:15:46,533 --> 00:15:50,287
Oh, you live here? Or you came by
to check on Meg? Which one is it?
226
00:15:51,573 --> 00:15:54,963
- All right. Now you got me all confused.
- Yeah, I bet.
227
00:15:55,053 --> 00:16:00,047
Look, Meg bails me out sometimes
if she can.
228
00:16:00,133 --> 00:16:04,172
When I saw she wasn't here,
I just figured I'd, you know, help myself.
229
00:16:04,253 --> 00:16:08,849
- How often do you steal from your wife?
- It's not stealing. She likes to help me.
230
00:16:08,933 --> 00:16:11,970
Yeah. Meg's dead. She was killed.
231
00:16:12,053 --> 00:16:14,567
- How?
- Well, you seem shocked.
232
00:16:14,653 --> 00:16:17,167
Well, of course I am!
233
00:16:17,253 --> 00:16:21,246
- Where were you last night?
- Last night?
234
00:16:25,413 --> 00:16:28,166
I don't remember.
235
00:16:34,693 --> 00:16:36,763
Phalanges!
236
00:16:36,853 --> 00:16:42,803
Phalanges, phalanges, phalanges!
Dancing phalanges! Dancing phalanges!
237
00:16:42,893 --> 00:16:44,724
Yeah.
238
00:16:44,813 --> 00:16:50,888
Booth thinks that bones are dry and boring,
but... Show me your phalanges!
239
00:16:50,973 --> 00:16:55,808
Bones. Her husband. Real genius. Doesn't
even remember where he was last night.
240
00:16:55,893 --> 00:16:58,691
We've got your son.
His mother's dead. Now you're...
241
00:16:58,773 --> 00:17:01,924
Oh, no, no, no. I never wanted that kid.
242
00:17:02,013 --> 00:17:04,971
She did it because she thought
it would straighten me out,
243
00:17:05,053 --> 00:17:07,567
but I couldn't handle a kid.
I'm a free spirit.
244
00:17:07,653 --> 00:17:09,723
What you are is a drunk, Lou.
245
00:17:09,813 --> 00:17:13,965
I need a forensics team and a car
for a burglary suspect and possible murderer.
246
00:17:14,053 --> 00:17:16,203
Whoa! I didn't kill her.
247
00:17:17,133 --> 00:17:19,727
Why would I?
248
00:17:20,533 --> 00:17:22,251
Who else would feed me?
249
00:17:23,333 --> 00:17:26,450
I've determined
a size and shape for the key.
250
00:17:26,533 --> 00:17:29,127
Did you reference it
against key patents?
251
00:17:29,213 --> 00:17:33,445
Yeah. The closest match is an old design
used for safe-deposit boxes and banks.
252
00:17:33,533 --> 00:17:36,127
I'm looking into banks
that still use them.
253
00:17:36,213 --> 00:17:38,329
Most safe-deposit keys are coded.
254
00:17:38,413 --> 00:17:43,168
Well, we couldn't get a clear enough picture
without exposing Andy to too much radiation.
255
00:17:43,253 --> 00:17:45,687
OK.
256
00:17:45,773 --> 00:17:47,843
How many, exactly?
257
00:17:48,453 --> 00:17:52,731
- Excuse me?
- Kids. A million seems a little impractical.
258
00:17:52,813 --> 00:17:56,123
I don't know.
I kind of have a thing for chaos.
259
00:17:56,213 --> 00:18:00,411
I guess I'll stop when the Feds
need to airlift me in supplies.
260
00:18:00,493 --> 00:18:03,883
- You don't by chance live in a shoe, do you?
- You don't want kids?
261
00:18:03,973 --> 00:18:08,125
Mm... Screaming, crying,
vomit, other bodily fluids...
262
00:18:08,653 --> 00:18:13,522
It's like a day around here.
Not worth giving up this body for that.
263
00:18:14,733 --> 00:18:16,530
Mm.
264
00:18:20,533 --> 00:18:22,922
Let's see what you got there.
265
00:18:25,653 --> 00:18:28,690
OK, Bones, sweep's finished.
It's all yours. Come on.
266
00:18:33,333 --> 00:18:37,451
The phenobarbital was prescribed to Andy
at a clinic over 50 miles away.
267
00:18:37,533 --> 00:18:43,130
- Probably the closest medical care they got.
- It's a harsh drug to give to a child.
268
00:18:43,213 --> 00:18:47,445
It's quite sweet, these pictures.
She really loved him.
269
00:18:47,533 --> 00:18:51,685
Check this out. Somebody had
a doctor's appointment in DC yesterday.
270
00:18:51,773 --> 00:18:56,403
- Maybe that's where they were headed.
- We'll need this and Andy's medical records.
271
00:18:56,493 --> 00:19:00,122
I'll have them sent to the Jeffersonian,
cos that's what we do.
272
00:19:00,213 --> 00:19:03,888
Brennan.
273
00:19:03,973 --> 00:19:07,170
I've made some discoveries.
Is this a good time?
274
00:19:07,253 --> 00:19:10,802
- No, no, no, no, no, no.
- OK...
275
00:19:10,893 --> 00:19:12,770
Zack?
276
00:19:12,853 --> 00:19:14,844
Hello?
277
00:19:17,573 --> 00:19:19,928
- Dr Addy.
- Oh, it's Dr Brennan.
278
00:19:20,013 --> 00:19:22,971
- Oh, is this a better time?
- No, no, no.
279
00:19:23,053 --> 00:19:25,613
- Then why call back?
- I wasn't speaking with you.
280
00:19:25,693 --> 00:19:28,685
- I believe you are.
- I was saying no to Andy.
281
00:19:28,773 --> 00:19:31,606
He grabbed my necklace.
Here you go. You were saying?
282
00:19:31,693 --> 00:19:36,289
Our victim had healed compression fractures
in her L1 and L2 vertebrae.
283
00:19:36,373 --> 00:19:39,683
- From a traumatic injury?
- No. Malnourishment.
284
00:19:39,773 --> 00:19:43,925
She also has some minor deformities,
including a slight bowing of the legs,
285
00:19:44,013 --> 00:19:46,732
and bony outgrowths
at muscle attachments.
286
00:19:46,813 --> 00:19:51,682
- Were there painkillers in Andy's tox screen?
- No. Just the phenobarbital.
287
00:19:54,853 --> 00:19:58,289
First the key, now jewellery.
What's next? A bowling ball?
288
00:19:58,373 --> 00:20:02,844
I'm watching him. Meg had bone conditions
that would've caused chronic pain,
289
00:20:02,933 --> 00:20:05,049
but she wasn't taking pain medication.
290
00:20:05,133 --> 00:20:10,127
Here. Probably because she didn't want
it affecting her... you know, her... her supply.
291
00:20:10,213 --> 00:20:13,728
You mean her breast milk?
You know, you can say the word "breast".
292
00:20:13,813 --> 00:20:17,089
- Yeah, I know, Bones.
- Didn't Rebecca breastfeed Parker?
293
00:20:17,173 --> 00:20:23,203
- You know... I am not discussing that.
- Would "teat" make you more comfortable?
294
00:20:23,293 --> 00:20:25,124
- I'm not talking teats!
- Why not?
295
00:20:25,213 --> 00:20:30,526
Enough! So our victim
wasn't taking any painkillers?
296
00:20:30,613 --> 00:20:34,731
No. But her occupational markers
in her lateral epicondyle and lower discs
297
00:20:34,813 --> 00:20:39,364
suggest her job requires manual labour.
Her pain might have been excruciating.
298
00:20:39,453 --> 00:20:43,162
Probably had no choice.
Jobs around here are pretty scarce.
299
00:20:43,253 --> 00:20:47,610
- What do you say we go talk to her boss?
- Were you breastfed? I was.
300
00:20:48,653 --> 00:20:53,249
What? Yesterday was her day off.
When she was late today, I just...
301
00:20:53,773 --> 00:20:55,570
God! Who did it? What happened?
302
00:20:55,653 --> 00:20:58,611
We're not sure yet.
How long have you been the manager?
303
00:20:58,693 --> 00:21:02,288
Three years now.
It's the only real business left around here.
304
00:21:02,373 --> 00:21:06,412
Meg's job involved physical labour.
Were you aware of her spinal condition?
305
00:21:06,493 --> 00:21:09,530
The pain? Yeah.
I offered to put her on disability.
306
00:21:09,613 --> 00:21:14,846
She said she and the baby couldn't get by on
that. She was tougher than half the guys here.
307
00:21:14,933 --> 00:21:19,484
Poor little bug.
I got five kids myself. I can't imagine.
308
00:21:19,573 --> 00:21:22,133
Any reason to think Meg was in trouble?
309
00:21:22,213 --> 00:21:25,125
No, I was her boss.
She didn't confide in me.
310
00:21:25,213 --> 00:21:29,172
How about that husband of hers?
He was trash on a cracker if I've ever seen it.
311
00:21:29,253 --> 00:21:32,450
- They weren't together.
- Doesn't mean he ain’t jealous.
312
00:21:32,533 --> 00:21:35,127
- Maybe someone told him about Shepard.
- Who?
313
00:21:35,213 --> 00:21:39,206
Dave Shepard. Some accountant
from corporate headquarters in DC.
314
00:21:39,293 --> 00:21:41,443
He was here for a week.
Left a few days ago.
315
00:21:41,533 --> 00:21:44,525
He was here to cut costs.
We've all heard that before.
316
00:21:44,613 --> 00:21:48,288
- Goodbye, jobs.
- Was there anything between Meg and Dave?
317
00:21:48,373 --> 00:21:52,605
Guy was kind of slimy, you know? Offering
to buy her sodas, asking about her kid,
318
00:21:52,693 --> 00:21:55,844
all the time looking at her... you know...
319
00:21:55,933 --> 00:21:57,605
Breasts?
320
00:21:58,493 --> 00:22:02,042
- Meg return the attention?
- He was from the city, had money.
321
00:22:02,133 --> 00:22:05,364
After her deadbeat of a husband,
you can't fault her.
322
00:22:05,453 --> 00:22:11,403
The only guy Meg cared about is right there.
She would've done anything for this kid.
323
00:22:11,973 --> 00:22:13,770
Do a check on all the employees
324
00:22:13,853 --> 00:22:17,732
and also give me the contact information
on this Dave Shepard out of DC.
325
00:22:17,813 --> 00:22:22,682
Lou Taylor didn't do it. He was in jail. They
picked him up passed out in another county.
326
00:22:22,773 --> 00:22:25,003
- Booth?
- Hold on. Well, you know what?
327
00:22:25,093 --> 00:22:30,884
If Lou didn't toss the place, then somebody
else did. So just keep checking for prints.
328
00:22:30,973 --> 00:22:33,123
Somebody else is looking for that key.
329
00:22:33,213 --> 00:22:34,362
- Booth?
- Yeah?
330
00:22:34,453 --> 00:22:37,047
Andy's making that face again.
331
00:22:38,453 --> 00:22:42,924
- Next time, you're changing the diaper.
- There are a series of numbers on it.
332
00:22:43,013 --> 00:22:47,564
These keys were coded to indicate
the specific bank, so read me your numbers.
333
00:22:47,653 --> 00:22:51,123
36, 09, 20, 14.
334
00:22:51,213 --> 00:22:54,171
OK. It's searching.
335
00:22:54,253 --> 00:22:58,690
Got it. It's from Green Hills Bank
in Petersberg, West Virginia.
336
00:22:58,773 --> 00:23:01,287
- I'll send directions to your phone.
- Thanks.
337
00:23:01,373 --> 00:23:04,251
No problem. How's my little bruiser?
338
00:23:04,333 --> 00:23:09,043
He looks pleased that a piece of metal is
no longer passing through his intestinal tract.
339
00:23:09,133 --> 00:23:12,443
- No more metal. No more metal.
- His legs are bowed.
340
00:23:12,533 --> 00:23:14,967
- All babies' legs are bowed.
- Not like this.
341
00:23:15,053 --> 00:23:17,248
How could I have missed that?
342
00:23:17,333 --> 00:23:20,962
Tell Zack to run a P-ratio test
on the victim's teeth.
343
00:23:21,053 --> 00:23:23,521
Sure thing. Take care of him, sweetie.
344
00:23:23,613 --> 00:23:26,252
I will.
345
00:23:27,373 --> 00:23:30,729
We've got the bank's address.
It's one town from Huntsville.
346
00:23:30,813 --> 00:23:34,886
Great. I'll request a warrant.
That'll give us time to go to Family Services.
347
00:23:34,973 --> 00:23:37,168
- No. Not yet.
- I know this is difficult,
348
00:23:37,253 --> 00:23:41,007
but we agreed that we keep Andy
to get the key. Now we have the key...
349
00:23:41,093 --> 00:23:44,563
You can't leave him with Family Services
in the middle of nowhere.
350
00:23:44,653 --> 00:23:48,362
- Cam needs to review his medical records.
- There are doctors there.
351
00:23:48,453 --> 00:23:51,570
You have no idea
what that place will be like, Booth.
352
00:23:51,653 --> 00:23:54,804
- Med students, underfunded, understaffed.
- Bones...
353
00:23:54,893 --> 00:23:57,487
His mother is dead
and his father is a felon.
354
00:23:57,573 --> 00:24:00,371
I've been in his situation.
I'm not turning him over
355
00:24:00,453 --> 00:24:04,571
until I'm satisfied he is somewhere safe
where he'll get the care he deserves.
356
00:24:04,653 --> 00:24:07,531
Fine. He can stay with us. For now.
357
00:24:08,373 --> 00:24:12,161
- Thank you.
- OK. I'll go lock the back up.
358
00:24:24,413 --> 00:24:29,282
- Let me know if you need anything else.
- You like elephants? Huh?
359
00:24:29,373 --> 00:24:34,401
The bank manager said Meg was a new client.
Only got this box a few days ago.
360
00:24:35,133 --> 00:24:37,442
- Ooh.
- Uh-oh.
361
00:24:39,453 --> 00:24:42,525
Uh-oh is right.
362
00:24:43,253 --> 00:24:46,006
Oh, Andy.
363
00:24:46,093 --> 00:24:49,324
What kind of trouble was Momma in?
364
00:24:53,893 --> 00:24:57,681
There's a sticky residue lining the trigger.
365
00:24:57,773 --> 00:25:03,484
I see fragments of a foreign object
inside the barrel. We need to take this.
366
00:25:03,573 --> 00:25:06,690
Meg Taylor didn't own a firearm -
at least not legally.
367
00:25:06,773 --> 00:25:09,651
We need to find out
where Mommy got the gun, don't we?
368
00:25:09,733 --> 00:25:12,201
Hey. Someone filed off the serial numbers.
369
00:25:12,293 --> 00:25:16,127
You think I didn't know that
before I handed it to you? I mean, I am FBI.
370
00:25:16,213 --> 00:25:19,091
Not just some guy
who changes your stinky diapers.
371
00:25:19,173 --> 00:25:22,404
It's been fired recently.
I'm finding gunpowder residue.
372
00:25:22,493 --> 00:25:27,692
Gunpowder's not gonna get me
the owner's name. I need fingerprints, DNA.
373
00:25:27,773 --> 00:25:29,764
Are there any pools around here?
374
00:25:31,093 --> 00:25:34,449
It's a pretty depressing job,
keeping an eye on the ruins,
375
00:25:34,533 --> 00:25:40,642
but I try to think positive, like I'm keeping
'em safe until they open up again.
376
00:25:40,733 --> 00:25:43,406
The chemicals are down here.
377
00:25:43,493 --> 00:25:45,529
Thanks.
378
00:25:45,613 --> 00:25:47,843
Can I hold him? Just for a bit?
379
00:25:49,853 --> 00:25:52,048
OK. Just for a little bit.
380
00:25:52,133 --> 00:25:53,930
All right, Andy?
381
00:25:54,893 --> 00:25:58,044
Know of any medical conditions
Andy was being treated for?
382
00:25:58,133 --> 00:26:01,250
Meg never liked
to share her problems.
383
00:26:01,333 --> 00:26:05,531
But I mean, Andy's always seemed just fine.
Is he sick?
384
00:26:05,613 --> 00:26:08,286
We're just checking.
Must've been a nice pool.
385
00:26:08,373 --> 00:26:12,252
Yeah. Uh, coached the high-school team
once, back when I was teaching.
386
00:26:12,333 --> 00:26:14,767
Perfect. Muriatic acid.
387
00:26:14,853 --> 00:26:17,492
Bones, what are you doing?
388
00:26:17,573 --> 00:26:20,610
Hey, I get it.
Someone filed the numbers off, didn't they?
389
00:26:20,693 --> 00:26:24,447
- How did you know that?
- She's using the acid to react to the metal.
390
00:26:24,533 --> 00:26:26,046
It restores the original etchings.
391
00:26:28,091 --> 00:26:30,082
- I taught science.
- You must've been a good teacher.
392
00:26:33,250 --> 00:26:35,241
I got the numbers.
393
00:26:37,570 --> 00:26:39,606
OK, great. Thanks.
We'll be back soon.
394
00:26:39,690 --> 00:26:42,284
Agent Charlie found the owner of the gun.
He's in DC.
395
00:26:42,370 --> 00:26:44,725
I'll drop you back at the lab
then go talk to him.
396
00:26:44,810 --> 00:26:48,598
Any news about the accountant who flirted
with Meg? The one her boss mentioned?
397
00:26:48,690 --> 00:26:52,160
Dave Shepard? He was supposed to be
back in Huntsville days ago.
398
00:26:52,250 --> 00:26:54,286
Didn't show up at work and he's not at home.
399
00:26:54,370 --> 00:26:56,361
You think he killed Meg and ran?
400
00:26:56,450 --> 00:27:00,682
Well, maybe. And then again,
maybe Meg killed someone too.
401
00:27:00,770 --> 00:27:02,965
We don't know who fired the gun.
402
00:27:03,050 --> 00:27:07,202
I tell you what, I can't wait to find that Dave
Shepard and have a little chat with him.
403
00:27:07,290 --> 00:27:08,439
Hey...
404
00:27:08,530 --> 00:27:11,522
- The little guy really likes you, huh?
- I've been feeding him.
405
00:27:11,610 --> 00:27:15,888
It's the normal socio-ecological phenomenon
of bonding with the food provider.
406
00:27:15,970 --> 00:27:17,688
Sure.
407
00:27:17,770 --> 00:27:20,238
That's what I thought.
408
00:27:26,330 --> 00:27:29,402
I completed the P-ratio test
on our victim's tooth.
409
00:27:29,490 --> 00:27:30,843
What does that mean?
410
00:27:30,930 --> 00:27:35,958
Indicators in the teeth are the primary
expression of certain genetic diseases.
411
00:27:36,050 --> 00:27:37,278
Genetic diseases?
412
00:27:37,370 --> 00:27:40,680
Meg had bone deformities which
could be the result of malnutrition.
413
00:27:40,770 --> 00:27:42,328
But also might be congenital.
414
00:27:42,410 --> 00:27:46,085
Does that mean Andy has something?
Is that why he's taking phenobarbital?
415
00:27:46,170 --> 00:27:50,721
It means it could be any number of things.
It's best not to speculate.
416
00:27:50,810 --> 00:27:52,209
Well, that sounds bad.
417
00:27:52,290 --> 00:27:55,009
The records from the clinic
are pretty shoddy,
418
00:27:55,090 --> 00:27:57,604
but I'll cross-reference them
with your findings.
419
00:27:57,690 --> 00:28:01,285
And Family Services called again.
They asked about picking up Andy.
420
00:28:01,370 --> 00:28:04,999
- Not until I know his condition.
- I'm sure the DC branch has good doctors...
421
00:28:05,090 --> 00:28:09,527
- Why is everyone so keen to get rid of Andy?
- We aren't. But this is a forensic lab...
422
00:28:09,610 --> 00:28:14,161
I'm still his legal foster parent.
I need to know his condition.
423
00:28:16,570 --> 00:28:18,800
I'll get right on it.
424
00:28:23,850 --> 00:28:26,683
- What have you got?
- The owner of the gun is Earl Delancy.
425
00:28:26,770 --> 00:28:29,238
- I know that name.
- From Fallbrook Rubber's roster.
426
00:28:29,330 --> 00:28:32,640
Delancy worked there.
Says he came to DC looking for work.
427
00:28:32,730 --> 00:28:35,324
Great. Hold onto that. Thanks.
428
00:28:35,410 --> 00:28:39,528
Mr Delancy. You worked at Fallbrook
Rubber before you came to DC.
429
00:28:39,610 --> 00:28:44,559
Yeah. I got laid off a couple of months ago.
Surprised that place is still in business.
430
00:28:44,650 --> 00:28:47,323
- So you knew Meg Taylor?
- Sure. Yeah.
431
00:28:47,410 --> 00:28:51,119
Can't picture her with a gun, though.
She was sweet as they come.
432
00:28:51,210 --> 00:28:54,680
- The gun was registered to you.
- I haven't seen it in a couple of years.
433
00:28:54,770 --> 00:28:57,330
I pawned it
when things started getting tight.
434
00:28:57,410 --> 00:29:00,208
It's illegal for pawn shops to buy guns.
435
00:29:01,250 --> 00:29:03,241
You seen Huntsville?
People will do whatever it takes to stay afloat.
436
00:29:05,289 --> 00:29:09,168
It says here that you assaulted
the plant manager when he laid you off.
437
00:29:09,249 --> 00:29:11,638
- You also took a swing at Dave Shepard?
- Yeah.
438
00:29:11,729 --> 00:29:14,448
That son of a bitch drives up
from DC every few months
439
00:29:14,529 --> 00:29:17,885
and when he leaves,
five more of us are out on our asses.
440
00:29:17,969 --> 00:29:22,485
Sure I took a swing at him.
I'd do it again, too, if I ever saw him.
441
00:29:22,569 --> 00:29:26,482
- Where's the pawn shop?
- Corner of Elm and Wilson.
442
00:29:26,569 --> 00:29:32,804
Went out of business, though. Too many
people selling, not enough people buying.
443
00:29:35,449 --> 00:29:40,648
This gun's covered in a fine dust of
particulate matter. It'll take a while to ID.
444
00:29:40,729 --> 00:29:43,562
The fragments inside the gun's barrel
are bone.
445
00:29:43,649 --> 00:29:50,168
Really? To get blowback like that, somebody
would have to have been shot point blank.
446
00:29:50,249 --> 00:29:54,003
In the head. Brain tissue
means they're from a frontal bone.
447
00:29:54,089 --> 00:29:57,365
Wow. Think maybe
our victim shot somebody?
448
00:29:57,809 --> 00:30:02,963
If she did, then why would she put the gun
in a safe-deposit box? It's not logical.
449
00:30:03,049 --> 00:30:06,359
Yeah, you're right.
Well, we'll soon know for sure.
450
00:30:06,449 --> 00:30:09,600
- What do you mean?
- I identified the residue on the trigger.
451
00:30:09,689 --> 00:30:14,126
It's burned skin. The finger must've gotten
caught when the shooter fired the gun.
452
00:30:14,209 --> 00:30:16,279
Cam should be able to get some DNA.
453
00:30:16,369 --> 00:30:19,441
The pawn shop closed last year.
No one has seen the owner.
454
00:30:19,529 --> 00:30:22,248
This gun could've been
floating around for months.
455
00:30:22,329 --> 00:30:25,048
Hey, little man!
456
00:30:25,129 --> 00:30:27,245
Yeah, Bones, what's with the Muzak?
457
00:30:27,329 --> 00:30:31,117
I'm on hold. There's a proven link
between poverty and violence.
458
00:30:31,209 --> 00:30:33,928
More people competing
for scarcer resources.
459
00:30:34,009 --> 00:30:38,127
The bottom line is we're not gonna know
if the gun owner is telling the truth.
460
00:30:38,209 --> 00:30:40,677
- Dr Brennan?
- Oh!
461
00:30:40,769 --> 00:30:43,329
- Yes, I'm still here.
- Oh! Hey, hey.
462
00:30:43,969 --> 00:30:47,757
Well, then tell the Congressman
I'd appreciate a call back. Thank you.
463
00:30:47,849 --> 00:30:50,966
Congressman?
Oh, what is Bones up to, huh?
464
00:30:51,049 --> 00:30:55,759
Just putting in a few calls. I've contributed a
great deal of money to numerous campaigns.
465
00:30:55,849 --> 00:30:59,364
- These politicians owe me.
- That's not how it's supposed to work.
466
00:30:59,449 --> 00:31:05,558
If the government fixed that bridge into
Huntsville, they'd be back on the scenic route.
467
00:31:05,649 --> 00:31:08,641
OK, what about the lack of fiscal resources?
468
00:31:08,729 --> 00:31:13,439
They found millions
to build a bridge to nowhere in Alaska.
469
00:31:13,529 --> 00:31:15,485
- Do you need to burp?
- No.
470
00:31:17,289 --> 00:31:20,008
- I was talking to Andy.
- I know you were.
471
00:31:20,089 --> 00:31:23,877
So, what's up with the little guy here?
How's his condition? Any news?
472
00:31:23,969 --> 00:31:27,359
Cam's looking at his records,
consulting with paediatricians.
473
00:31:27,449 --> 00:31:30,680
He's gonna be just fine, isn't he?
He's a tiger.
474
00:31:30,769 --> 00:31:34,364
Tiger, tiger, tiger, tiger,
tiger, tiger, tiger, tiger, tiger.
475
00:31:34,449 --> 00:31:37,486
Development would be heightened
if you didn't talk like a fool.
476
00:31:37,569 --> 00:31:40,129
- What were you doing?
- I wasn't doing anything.
477
00:31:40,209 --> 00:31:43,121
- You were going...
- I never did that.
478
00:31:43,209 --> 00:31:45,040
That's what you sounded like.
479
00:31:45,129 --> 00:31:49,407
I have some info about the skin
Hodgins found on the gun's trigger.
480
00:31:49,489 --> 00:31:55,121
- It was male. Not Meg Taylor.
- So Meg was either an accomplice...
481
00:31:55,209 --> 00:31:58,519
Or she witnessed the murder,
got her hands on a gun, then hid it.
482
00:31:58,609 --> 00:32:00,679
Whoa. Excuse me.
483
00:32:00,769 --> 00:32:03,329
Booth. Yeah.
484
00:32:04,169 --> 00:32:06,399
We just found our missing accountant.
485
00:32:06,489 --> 00:32:10,528
He used his credit card to check into
a motel near Huntsville. Great. Thanks.
486
00:32:10,609 --> 00:32:13,328
Local police are picking him up now.
487
00:32:15,969 --> 00:32:17,960
Right there.
488
00:32:21,289 --> 00:32:24,486
You're kidding me, right?
You're not Dave Shepard.
489
00:32:24,569 --> 00:32:27,322
- I know.
- How did you end up with his credit card?
490
00:32:27,409 --> 00:32:32,642
It was inside that bag. I found it
in a trash heap near the old coal mine.
491
00:32:32,729 --> 00:32:35,880
- I thought I got lucky.
- Was there blood when you found it?
492
00:32:35,969 --> 00:32:39,325
I guess. Hey, can I have the sweaters?
They're really soft.
493
00:32:39,409 --> 00:32:42,242
I'll take the bag, everything in it.
Cut him loose.
494
00:32:42,329 --> 00:32:46,607
Cut me loose? Hey, I don't mind staying here.
You know, a couple of nights, maybe.
495
00:32:46,689 --> 00:32:50,125
What do you say? Couple of nights.
496
00:32:50,609 --> 00:32:55,444
This Dave Shepard is an accountant? That's
not a profession I associate with killers.
497
00:32:55,529 --> 00:32:58,839
Booth thinks our victim
may have seen Shepard shoot someone.
498
00:32:58,929 --> 00:33:02,524
He's been missing since her death.
He could've killed her, too.
499
00:33:02,609 --> 00:33:06,602
Yeah. Well, tell Booth I just found the guy.
Or parts of his skull, anyway.
500
00:33:06,689 --> 00:33:09,123
I ran the DNA from the blood
on the duffel bag
501
00:33:09,209 --> 00:33:12,884
and the frontal-bone fragments from the gun
through CODIS. Both his.
502
00:33:12,969 --> 00:33:15,563
So Shepard isn't our killer,
he's another victim.
503
00:33:15,649 --> 00:33:19,358
He was shot in the head by a male
with a gun Meg Taylor was trying to hide.
504
00:33:19,449 --> 00:33:21,963
- Hey, you wanted me?
- Yeah.
505
00:33:22,049 --> 00:33:26,645
There was a flash drive
in Dave Shepard's duffel bag.
506
00:33:26,729 --> 00:33:28,924
- It's crushed.
- That's where you come in.
507
00:33:29,009 --> 00:33:31,967
Did he find something
that could've gotten him killed?
508
00:33:32,049 --> 00:33:34,244
OK. I'll get right on it.
509
00:33:37,249 --> 00:33:39,638
- Did you call the paediatrician?
- On his way.
510
00:33:39,729 --> 00:33:42,118
You know he's good?
We have to be certain...
511
00:33:42,209 --> 00:33:48,000
He's the chief of paediatrics at Children's
National Medical Center. He's the best.
512
00:33:52,609 --> 00:33:55,646
Hi, beautiful. You coming to visit?
513
00:33:55,729 --> 00:33:58,880
Yeah. I need some cotton swabs
and some bleach.
514
00:33:58,969 --> 00:34:02,848
I'm cleaning dried blood off that flash drive.
515
00:34:07,729 --> 00:34:09,845
You do want kids, don't you?
516
00:34:11,209 --> 00:34:13,120
What?
517
00:34:13,209 --> 00:34:15,404
Kids.
518
00:34:15,489 --> 00:34:20,438
- Small humans.
- I'll admit, I only ever planned on one or two.
519
00:34:21,249 --> 00:34:24,525
- But if you want a million, I want a million.
- Really?
520
00:34:24,609 --> 00:34:28,238
Absolutely. I don't care
if you're mushy and shapeless.
521
00:34:28,329 --> 00:34:33,562
Puffy from constant hormonal fluctuations.
I'll still find you sexy.
522
00:34:33,649 --> 00:34:36,163
- Well, I'm not gonna look like I'm...
- It's OK.
523
00:34:36,249 --> 00:34:40,288
When you get wider, there'll be
more of you to love. We should start now.
524
00:34:40,369 --> 00:34:43,998
Why wait till we get married?
Who knows how long your divorce'll take?
525
00:34:44,089 --> 00:34:46,762
Hodgins...
526
00:34:46,849 --> 00:34:49,807
Your computer is... It's beeping.
527
00:34:50,689 --> 00:34:52,680
Oh.
528
00:34:57,009 --> 00:34:58,601
- That's interesting.
- What?
529
00:34:58,689 --> 00:35:04,047
Dust from the gun was composed of silica,
sulphur compounds and synthetic rubbers.
530
00:35:04,129 --> 00:35:06,245
Sounds like tyres.
531
00:35:06,329 --> 00:35:10,004
The gun was used
at the tyre recycling plant.
532
00:35:11,369 --> 00:35:13,405
I'm not gonna get wider.
533
00:35:13,729 --> 00:35:17,688
- Thanks.
- What exactly are you looking for?
534
00:35:17,769 --> 00:35:22,285
Anything that'll help us figure out what
happened to Dave Shepard and Meg Taylor.
535
00:35:22,369 --> 00:35:24,724
OK, people. Back to work!
536
00:35:24,809 --> 00:35:29,007
You let them do their job.
They'll let us do ours.
537
00:35:38,249 --> 00:35:40,604
Where are you going? Hey, Bones.
538
00:35:40,689 --> 00:35:43,044
Hey, pal. Here. Hold onto that for me.
539
00:35:43,129 --> 00:35:45,085
Bones, where are you going?
540
00:35:45,169 --> 00:35:46,522
Hey!
541
00:35:47,609 --> 00:35:50,203
Booth, look at this.
542
00:35:52,249 --> 00:35:54,968
Turn off the machine.
543
00:35:55,049 --> 00:35:59,088
- If I needed a dead body to disappear...
- This would be a thorough way to do it.
544
00:35:59,169 --> 00:36:01,763
How often do you ship out
a load of this mulch?
545
00:36:01,849 --> 00:36:05,319
We collect a week's worth at a time.
We bag it up every couple hours.
546
00:36:05,409 --> 00:36:07,877
Dave could still be here.
547
00:36:07,969 --> 00:36:10,085
It's this lot right here.
548
00:36:10,169 --> 00:36:13,798
Bones. This lot was collected
right after Dave's disappearance.
549
00:36:13,889 --> 00:36:18,041
- Everything's washed and sanitised.
- All the evidence has been washed away.
550
00:36:18,129 --> 00:36:22,247
Not necessarily.
Scoop up some of the mulch.
551
00:36:26,529 --> 00:36:28,724
Put it in this water.
552
00:36:34,649 --> 00:36:37,117
- Next bag.
- What exactly are we doing here?
553
00:36:37,209 --> 00:36:39,165
I'll explain in a minute.
554
00:36:40,089 --> 00:36:42,728
- Try the next bag.
- Next bag.
555
00:36:44,889 --> 00:36:47,119
Next bag.
556
00:36:47,569 --> 00:36:50,561
The rubber pieces float, see?
557
00:36:52,169 --> 00:36:54,637
But bone...
558
00:36:56,449 --> 00:36:59,646
Sinks. We just found Dave.
559
00:37:00,729 --> 00:37:04,563
Tell the manager to shut this plant down.
560
00:37:04,649 --> 00:37:07,800
- Brennan.
- Brennan, it's me. Turn on your video stream.
561
00:37:07,889 --> 00:37:11,768
- Is Andy all right?
- The paediatrician is examining him now.
562
00:37:11,849 --> 00:37:15,478
The baby is fine. Take a look at this.
563
00:37:15,569 --> 00:37:18,367
I recovered most of the memory
from that flash drive.
564
00:37:18,449 --> 00:37:23,842
Shepard's audit showed a different set of
numbers than those reported to headquarters.
565
00:37:23,929 --> 00:37:27,524
- Somebody doctored the reports.
- Siphoning money into an account.
566
00:37:27,609 --> 00:37:29,839
Dave figured it out. That got him killed.
567
00:37:29,929 --> 00:37:33,604
And if Meg knew about it,
the killer would want her dead, too. Come on.
568
00:37:33,689 --> 00:37:35,839
- Hey, where's Barnett?
- Chip left.
569
00:37:35,929 --> 00:37:40,320
- Where'd he go?
- He said he had an emergency at home.
570
00:37:50,969 --> 00:37:53,005
Oh, damn!
571
00:38:19,449 --> 00:38:21,917
You're under arrest for eluding an agent.
572
00:38:22,009 --> 00:38:27,003
I'm sure we'll be throwing in a few murder
charges as well. You know your rights, yeah?
573
00:38:27,089 --> 00:38:29,967
It's only a matter of time
before they close the plant.
574
00:38:30,049 --> 00:38:33,280
- So you embezzled from the company?
- A man does what he has to.
575
00:38:33,369 --> 00:38:37,044
- That justifies killing two people?
- Shepard was gonna turn me in.
576
00:38:37,129 --> 00:38:41,520
- So you shot him. Meg witnessed it.
- She wanted money to keep quiet.
577
00:38:41,609 --> 00:38:44,760
- Take her kid to some doctor.
- You knew where she was headed?
578
00:38:44,849 --> 00:38:47,807
You followed her
so you could kill her with no one around.
579
00:38:47,889 --> 00:38:52,679
I didn't want to kill her. I went to her trailer,
looked for the gun first. You do what you...
580
00:38:52,769 --> 00:38:56,603
There was a baby in that car,
you son of a bitch!
581
00:39:01,969 --> 00:39:03,846
Hi.
582
00:39:03,929 --> 00:39:06,489
Hey.
583
00:39:08,089 --> 00:39:11,479
- One of the techs found this in Meg's trailer.
- What is it?
584
00:39:11,569 --> 00:39:14,925
A letter that Meg wrote
to her friend Carol Grant.
585
00:39:15,849 --> 00:39:19,159
Hey. Andy has a genetic condition.
586
00:39:19,249 --> 00:39:21,638
- What is it?
- Vitamin-D-resistant rickets.
587
00:39:21,729 --> 00:39:25,165
Meg had a mild form.
She probably didn't even know she had it.
588
00:39:25,249 --> 00:39:27,888
Males are prone to
more severe cases than females
589
00:39:27,969 --> 00:39:30,767
so Andy would've exhibited
more extreme symptoms.
590
00:39:30,849 --> 00:39:34,524
Including seizures. The clinic
probably prescribed phenobarbital
591
00:39:34,609 --> 00:39:38,807
- without searching for underlying causes.
- Is Andy gonna be all right?
592
00:39:38,889 --> 00:39:40,607
Absolutely.
593
00:39:40,689 --> 00:39:45,479
Very treatable. My friend can treat him
as an outpatient. Andy's gonna be fine.
594
00:39:45,569 --> 00:39:47,639
Thanks, Cam.
595
00:39:49,609 --> 00:39:52,077
- Really.
- Mm, don't mention it.
596
00:39:52,929 --> 00:39:54,920
- Yeah!
- You're gonna be fine.
597
00:39:55,009 --> 00:39:58,365
Looks like our little guy's gonna be just fine.
598
00:40:02,889 --> 00:40:04,686
The little guy.
599
00:40:04,769 --> 00:40:06,646
Andy.
600
00:40:06,729 --> 00:40:09,448
Andy's gonna be just fine.
601
00:40:09,889 --> 00:40:12,084
You should read this.
602
00:40:13,289 --> 00:40:19,125
Dear Carol, if anything
happens to me, take care of my Andy.
603
00:40:19,209 --> 00:40:22,519
I know you don't have much.
None of us do.
604
00:40:22,609 --> 00:40:28,320
But you have love, and I know Andy
would be lucky to be part of your family.
605
00:41:14,329 --> 00:41:18,527
You know, I'm gonna miss that little guy.
And so are you, so don't deny it.
606
00:41:18,609 --> 00:41:23,319
I'm not ashamed to say that I've developed
a certain affection for Andy.
607
00:41:23,409 --> 00:41:26,446
- It's a natural by-product of care-giving.
- Yeah.
608
00:41:26,529 --> 00:41:31,398
So, what do you think, huh?
Change your mind about having kids?
609
00:41:31,489 --> 00:41:33,923
- Booth...
- OK. All right.
610
00:41:34,009 --> 00:41:36,284
You got some time.
611
00:41:38,169 --> 00:41:39,966
- Not that much time.
- Booth!
612
00:41:40,049 --> 00:41:43,007
- Hey!
- Oh! Now look what you did.
613
00:41:43,089 --> 00:41:45,808
What I did?
You're the one who hit me.
614
00:41:45,889 --> 00:41:47,800
- What is all this stuff?
- What?
615
00:41:47,889 --> 00:41:51,438
It's information Carol gave me
from a structural engineer.
616
00:41:51,529 --> 00:41:56,649
Ah. So you took my financial advice, didn't
you? Hm? You're gonna build that home.
617
00:41:56,729 --> 00:42:01,405
No. The Congressman couldn't help,
so I'm rebuilding the bridge into Huntsville.
618
00:42:01,489 --> 00:42:05,846
- I've hired Carol as the project manager.
- Wow. That is gonna cost a fortune.
619
00:42:05,929 --> 00:42:09,968
To you it's a fortune. But with my advance
and selling the movie rights...
620
00:42:10,049 --> 00:42:14,839
I get it. You know, I thought you said
that towns lived and died like organisms.
621
00:42:14,929 --> 00:42:17,318
That sometimes
we should just let them go.
622
00:42:17,409 --> 00:42:21,925
Sometimes all it takes is one thing,
like a bridge, for a town to start recovering.
623
00:42:22,009 --> 00:42:26,287
Back on the scenic route,
the gas stations could reopen, restaurants.
624
00:42:26,369 --> 00:42:28,758
Maybe a bed and breakfast.
625
00:42:28,849 --> 00:42:30,999
Wow.
626
00:42:31,089 --> 00:42:34,047
Listen to you. Good for you.
627
00:42:37,449 --> 00:42:41,237
You know, it's, um... it's a shame.
628
00:42:41,969 --> 00:42:42,958
What?
629
00:42:43,049 --> 00:42:46,041
- No kids. Who'll be proud of you?
- I don't do it for that.
630
00:42:46,129 --> 00:42:49,041
Yeah, OK. I know. I know.
631
00:42:49,129 --> 00:42:53,361
With next year's book, you should get
that second home in the town you saved.
632
00:42:53,449 --> 00:42:59,240
It only makes sense, right? Because every
year, the plasmas get cheaper and cheaper.
633
00:42:59,329 --> 00:43:03,527
- Forget it.
- What? Andy's gonna miss his Auntie Bones.
634
00:43:03,609 --> 00:43:07,761
Gonna want to see you.
We could all go fishing, come back home,
635
00:43:07,849 --> 00:43:15,039
plop ourselves in front of that big 103-inch
plasma screen of heaven and football.
636
00:43:15,129 --> 00:43:17,563
- And you can make the five-layer dip.
- Seven.
637
00:43:17,649 --> 00:43:20,800
Even better. Seven layers. Perfect.
You can talk to Andy.
638
00:43:20,889 --> 00:43:25,087
"Hello, Andy. Little man, little baby, baby..."
639
00:43:58,929 --> 00:44:00,248
What's that mean?
640
00:44:01,529 --> 00:44:03,520
