Pieces of skull and bone are found in a tree. They probably got there by wind. Also, Cam has hired Brennan's dad, Max, as a science teacher at the Jeffersonian. Brennan is not happy.
But really, Brennan is never happy about much of anything, unless it is decaying and has a skeleton.
This recap is pretty late – sorry all. I blame all the company I've had lately!
Brennan and Booth are on a flight to China – Brennan is in first class of course, which annoys Booth, who is in coach. Booth keeps catching a teenager sneaking booze off of the booze cart. Brennan is excited to get to China to identify some really old bones in a cave.
I missed the first 5 minutes of this episode, but I guess there was a dead guy in a meth-lab-trailer, and during a training exercise the state troopers blew it up and the dead guy went flying.
Also, Booth has just closed a case of very high profile, and is expecting a lot of glory, a raise, maybe a parade, and possibly to have his image put onto a coin.
Bones is back!! Finally! A skull/body is found inside a crushed car, but the more interesting parts of this episode center on Angela's bisexuality and Sweets' hidden love life.
Angela: Without the risk of pain, there can be no possibility of pleasure, or joy, or... love!
The team is analyzing the body, still inside the crushed car.
Two stoners find the top half of a female body in the ocean. Cam is out at the scene again, and this time she's brought the new "Zack's Replacement" with her. He is Australian and knows a lot of random trivia, which is basically all he's got going for him.
Just when you think this show's Gross-Out Factor can't go any higher...
An office manager is found mangled in an elevator shaft. It's nasty, and Booth says so.
Some dude pees in a pond, it turns purple, and then dismembered pieces of a body start floating to the top! Hence, the title of this episode.
ZACK!! Zack is in the looney bin, talking to Sweets about logic vs balderdash. I miss Zach. We need him back.
The episode opens with Booth and his son, Parker, playing ball in the park. Parker looks in a birds nest and finds somebody's finger! Gross. He wanted to put it in his pocket and take it home... even grosser.
At the lab, we meet Mr. Starret, Brennen's oldest grad student, and the newest "Zack's replacement".
We open the episode with a trucker stopping to use an outhouse, when KABOOM! Trucker, fire, and poo flying everywhere! What an opening.
Booth is waking up Brennan at her house really early, and she has a... friend... there with her.
Aired directly after Yanks in the UK (1), so I suggest reading that one first.
Just moments before leaving for the airport to leave England, Brennan gets a call. She and Booth go off to investigate a dead, charred body believed to be forensic scientist Ian Wexler (the professor from Oxford), which Brennan rules a homicide.
