Oh, I'm so toasted.

Yeah.
Me too.

Hey.What?

Early morning.
Shouldn't it be foggy?

Global warming.

- But it's all good.
- No, not really.

I don't wanna be negative,
but it's not all good.

Just ask a penguin, man.

- Global warming sucks.
- What's that?

Global warming is when some kind
of carbon gases get built up--No, what's that?

It's trash.

No, man.

Oh!

[ Clock Ticking ]

[ Cell Phone Vibrating ]Oh-ho!

- Look at that. Thank God.
Somebody got murdered.
- Okay, let's go.

You're supposed to turn your
phones completely off during
our sessions. Not just vibrate.

A matter of respect.

[ Police Radio Chatter ]

Hi, guys.You can release 24.

Oop.

- Oh, hey, Dr. Brennan.
- Mr. Nigel-Murray,
what are you doing here?

We decided to utilize
some of your brighter
grad students...

until we find a full-time
forensic anthropologist,
remember?

Do you consider yourself one
of my brighter grad students,
Mr. Nigel-Murray?

Yes. And so do you,
Dr. Brennan.

I am not calling this kid
Mr. Nigel... anything.Vincent.

Or Vince or Vinnie, Vin--
[ Chuckles ]
Vincenzo.

I actually, uh--
I had this girlfriend once...

who used to call me
"Vino Delectable"...

because of how my--
[ Stammers ]

You don't need to know that.

What do you need me to do first?I need you
to go back to the lab.

I thought perhaps you might
want Vincent to shadow you,
get a real sense of what you do.

Little-known forensic fact:
Tongue prints are as distinctive
as fingerprints. Uh--

I can be useful in the field.I need a forensic anthropologist
in the lab...

so I can spend my time
aiming Agent Booth
in the right direction.

"Aiming Agent Booth."
What, like a hose?

Well, here. [ Keys Jingle ]

Take my car.
I'll get a ride with Booth.

[ Brennan ]
How were these remains found?

Well, let me aim you
in this direction,
okay, Bones?

Two-- let's call them--
hippies found these remains
this morning.

[ Chuckles ]
Deadheads.

Oh, I sold veggie burritos and
followed Phish one whole summer.
It was fantastic.

I'm not able to ascertain sex
without a pelvic bone.

Well, if this scrap
of cloth is a bathing suit,
then probably female.

Are you good
at estimating time of death
for submerged corpses?

Heavily degraded
by crab and fish.
Two to three weeks?

That could be a breast implant. [ Booth ] Breasts.
That's my department, okay?

Give me a serial number.
My guys will be able
to track that down.

[ Sighs ]
Why is there only
half a skeleton?

Because the spine
has been severed.

So, severed spine
equals foul play.

- No, not necessarily.
- [ Booth ]
Then it was an accident.

- No, it was foul play.
- I just said that.

- This hand
has sustained trauma.
- Shark attack.

No, the fingers
got smashed from what looks
like multiple blows.

That suggests foul play
and... not by a shark.

We'll have Hodgins
take a close look
for particulates.

- Great.
So what do we do next?
- Find the other half?

[ Sighs ]

- What do you see,
Mr. Nigel-Murray?
- Eye sockets.

Anything special
about these sockets?

There are no eyeballs
in them?

We already have Agent Booth
to make lame jokes.
Let's stick to facts.

The rods in a human eye
are sensitive enough
to detect the light...

emitted by a struck match
from as much as a mile away
on a clear night.

Okay. Let's stick
to relevant facts.

- These sockets
have been ground down.
- Okay. That could be useful.

Especially if you have
an explanation.Plastic surgery.

Oh, she had, uh,
fake boobs too.

"Sockets," "eyeballs," "boobs"--
I wouldn't use these words when
conferring with Dr. Brennan.

I know. With her,
it's all "supraorbital limbus"
and "mammary implants."

But you seemed
a more colloquial sort.

Well, in that case,
what about the backbone?

A clean transection
between the L1 and L2 vertebrae.

Obviously that would've
been fatal...

if it had happened
while the victim
were still alive.

This conk...

to the parietal bone
would not have been fatal.

And these abrasions
are puzzling.

Postmortem scraping
from the remains being washed up
on a stony beach.

Oh.
Should I have known that?The point is you do now.

The remains show traces
of freshwater
and pelagic sediment...

common to Chesapeake Bay.

- Grad student?
- He's done very well so far.

He'll disappoint.Why?

[ Snickers ]

I've discovered
microscopic tooth shards
from the Alosa sapidissima--

also known as American shad--
on what flesh there is.

In the 1700s, the shad was
especially valued as a delicacy.Yeah. Fascinating.

Based on currents,
shad populations
and sheer guesswork--

Don't tell him you're guessing.the victim died
in the same body of water...

in which she was found,
probably within six miles.

I got a serial number
off the breast implant.
F.B.I.'s tracking it down now.

Traces of copolymer
on the vertebrae,
nearly microscopic.

I'm chasing that down.I-I won't disappoint.

I graduated
with first-class honors
from Leeds.

Also, I have
a retentive memory.

Ah, that would explain
the, um, informative tangents.

Does Brennan put "Mister"
in front of your name?Yes.

That's her very subtle way
of saying you're not a doctor.

Don't tell him that.

Do you know
what large-breasted women
and fish remind me of?

Be very careful
what you say next,
Mr. Nigel-Murray.

Topless saleswomen
are legal in Liverpool, England,

but only
in tropical fish stores.

Tangents, Mr. Nigel-Murray.
Tangents and diversions--

perhaps we could
keep those to a minimum.

The F.B.I.'s
traced the breast implant
to a Baltimore plastic surgeon.

He replaced
a leaking implant
for this woman.

Her name is Patricia Ludmuller.
R.R. Number One,
Maylor Island, Maryland.

Yeah. Reported missing
three weeks ago.

Presumed drowned
after she didn't come back
from her morning swim.

Very striking facial features.Yeah, well, according to your
Mister-- What's his name?

Nigel-Murray?Yeah. Those are mostly
artificial too.

Mmm. How many people live
on Maylor Island?I'd say about a couple thousand.

That's one of those
end-of-the-world places
where the weirdos flock.

Why go to this trouble to make
yourself look beautiful and then
move to the end of the world?

Well, the background check
on her turned up
suspiciously little.

All right?
There was no credit cards,
no driver's license.

Officially, she didn't exist
before five years ago.

Witness protection?No. Marshals say
she's not one of theirs.

But you know,
sometimes they lie.

If you really wanted to hide,
you wouldn't make yourself
look beautiful.

If you want to hide, Bones,
you'd change your looks
as much as you can.

- Talk about low profile.
- It's very peaceful.

Yeah, well, these peaceful
places, they usually have
a seething underbelly.

Really?What do I know? I'm from Philly,
where the underbelly's on top.

Just focus.
Look. Our victim's home.

She's a very spiritual person,
catholic in her tastes.

- Oh, what, you can tell
she's Catholic?
- Not Catholic-- "catholic."

Encompassing, universal.

She has a lot
of religious books,

but they cover a wide range
of dogmas and philosophies.

She herself seems
to be Protestant.

There's crosses,
no crucifixes.

She's a pastor, yeah.

Looks like one
of those grassroots
community churches.

Huh.

-She was preparing for a sermon.
-A pastor with breast
augmentation and veneers?

- So?
- A spiritual leader
shouldn't be so vain.

The pope sits on a throne.
He wears robes worth thousands
of dollars. Isn't that vanity?

Oh, really.
You're goin' after
the pope now.

One pastor gets her teeth
whitened, and the other drinks
wine on Sunday mornings...

and tells everyone
that it's been miraculously
transformed into blood.

- Which of those
is more outlandish?
- [ Grunts Quietly ]

- [ Button Clicks ]
- [ Machine: Female Voice ]
You have one new message.

[ Beeps ][ Man ]
Hey, it's J.P. again.

I'm sorry.
I-I miss you.
I need to see you.

It's important.
I really need you, Patty.
Please call. Please.

Sounds like a lost sheep
in need of religious counseling.

- [ Machine Beeps ]
- Sounds more like
a desperate boyfriend.

- [ Phone Beeping ]
- Oh. Nothin' here. It's just--
Caller I.D.'s blocked.

[ Cell Phone Ringing ]Hold on. Booth.

Yeah? Where?
Bones.

Bones! They found
a pelvis and legs
in the water...

about eight miles from here
on the Virginia side of the bay.

-They should take it to the lab.
-Okay, send it over
to the lab. Now!

There's more tissue
on this half.

And just because
we have the top of a body
and the bottom of a body,

doesn't mean
it's all the same body.

This half starts
where the other half ends--
at the L2 vertebrae.

- Coincidence, I think not.
- Based on the lack
of hemorrhagic tissue,

this victim was already dead
when cut in half.

He's in the water,
drowning maybe, or--
or is pushed from a boat.

When he reaches for the boat,
his fingers are smashed,

he drowns and then
is cut in half later
in some... maritime mishap.

"He."Mm-hmm. Triangular pubis,
no evidence of a ventral arc.

The pelvic bone speaks.
It says, "I be male."

The pelvic bone can say
whatever it wants to say.

This part here
says female.

What part's that?It's called a vagina.

Ah.

Did you know that women blink
twice as often as men?

Which might be useful
information if the fish hadn't
eaten our victim's eyelids.

Ah. Relevance.

Well, I can do
a D.N.A. comparison...

to find out if these
two sets of human remains
come from the same victim.

The measurements
of the vertebrae
match perfectly.

I'm-- I'm nearly positive
that it's all one victim.

Who is--Male.

And female.

We have one victim...

with two sexes.

[ Sweets ] A transgender?Post-op.
She had female sex organs.

So if she had sexual
reassignment surgery,

that means she would be
a transsexual.

Whew.
How do they do that?

They split the penis
and then turn it inside out-- [ Booth Exhales ]

carefully, so as not to damage
the nerves-- and then
they use the glans...

to create a nerve cluster
dense enough to achieve orgasm.

Okay, new rule:
No surgical details,
all right?

Generally, transgendered people
feel that they're the victim
of a cosmic mistake.

They're certain from
a young age that they were
born into the wrong body.

Surgery and hormone treatments
are a way to correct
that biological mistake.

Which is why
Patricia Ludmuller's past
only went back five years.

Are pastors allowed
to think that, uh, God makes
those kind of mistakes?

Do youthink God makes
that kind of mistake?

Well, I think that, uh,
God expects us to overcome
certain things.

The term "trans" conveys
a meaning of "beyond,"
"across," "moving further."

There's a very spiritual
component.

Let's say some hyper-religious
fundamentalist finds out...

that, uh, Sister Patricia
used to be Father Paul--And murders her.

Eh?Okay, you mentioned
that there was...

an intense message
on Patricia Ludmuller's
answering machine, right?

- Yes.
- If, say, she had sex
with a man...

and then informed him
that she was transgender,

isn't that
a more likely motive
for murder?

Anthropologically speaking,
a male's status in a society...

is closely connected
with what he perceives to be
his outward maleness.

Look, there's no way the guy
on that answering machine
knew that he-- she-- he--

knew that she-- he
was transgender.

- How do you know?
- I know an "ain't too proud
to beg" call when I hear one.

- He had no idea
that she wasn't a real woman.
- That's very insightful.

- Thank you. "Insightful," see?
- Except for
the "real woman" slip.

Have you made many of these
"ain't too proud to beg"
calls in the past?

What do you say
we just stay focused here?

Okay. Have you ruled out
completely...

that Patricia Ludmuller's murder
might be because of something...

that happened before
he became a woman?

I put a request in to find out
his previous identity
before he was a woman.

It's the best I could do.
Okay, but from now on,
he is always a "she."

She was a he when she died,
so she deserves
the respect due...

to him or her--
okay-- person!

Okay. I-I'm a genius,
and I'm confused.

[ Exhales ]

[ Man ]
Pastor Patricia
was our center.

Like the best leaders,
she drew us together
without even trying.

Did you release identity?Their pastor went for a swim
and never came back, all right?

The body washed up.Ah. Intuitive leap.
Right.

Let's pray together.

Let's pray that whatever
happened to Patricia out there
alone came peacefully,

that God embraced her
as his daughter,

that there was no pain,
only God's great serenity.

A moment of silence
for the pastor we loved...
so much.

What are you doing?I'm praying.
Would you keep your voice down?

I'm sorry.
I'm not a member.It's not a gym, Bones.

- Excuse me, Mister, uh--
- Wade Schmidt.
You're F.B.I.?

How did you know
that Patricia Ludmuller
was the victim found in the bay?

She's a member of our community,
and she's gone.
We feel her loss.

We're right, aren't we?

Yes.Is there a-- a vice-pastor
or somebody else we can talk to?

Not really.
I take care
of the finances.

Chuck over there-- he acted
as kind of an unofficial
assistant to Patricia.

What will happen
to the church now?

To be honest,
I'm not optimistic that we'll
survive Patricia's loss.

Why?
You're a community of people
with a common superstition.

The shared illusion
should be enough to bind you.Bones.

Patricia would like you.
She'd say, "That's the one
that'll keep us honest."

See? She would've liked me.She keeps everyone honest,
this one.

Hey, Chuck, you got a moment?

These people
are from the F.B.I. [ Motor Whirring ]

- I thought Patricia drowned.
- We don't know
the cause of death yet.

She went for a swim
on a foggy morning.

She got cut in half
by a yacht propeller...

or a destroyer
returning to Norfolk, okay?

- Chuck--
- We don't know how the body
was disarticulated.

- What the hell doyou know?
- We know what we don't know,
Mr. Kennedy.

That's why
we're asking questions.

Yeah, we do have
a few felons
in our congregation,

former addicts,
not to mention
the less serious sins:

lying, vanity,
sloth, greed.

I myself had
a meth problem.

Would you like
to arrest me?

Is that a confession, Chuck?

Yeah. Yeah,
I'm confessing to a past.

I have a past,
like everybody else.
I bet even you do.

Course, God
absolved me of my past.
How about you?

[ Motor Whirring ]

See you around.He's takin' it hard.

The way Chuck sees it,
Patricia introduced him to God,
and God saved his life--

gave him focus,
made him part
of a community.

Do you have a congregant
called J.P.?

- Yes.
- Could you point him out
to us, please?

It's still
hard to believe
the pastor's gone.

I understand she was
one hell of a swimmer.

Hey, Booth, I'm lookin'
at these pictures you gave me,

and body language
and facial expressions tell
some very interesting stories.

- Why don't you give me
your insights.
- She swam every single day.

I mean, you don't need me
for that insight.
Ask anybody.

He holds himself separate
from the congregation.
What do you think that means?

How long have you been a member
of the Inclusion Church?I joined about six months ago.

Oh. He's a latecomer
to the church, huh?

- That's a good one.
- Thank you.

For sharing that.

Why would anybody lie about
when they joined a church?

So what brought you
to the church?I had a drinking problem...

which gave me problems
with the law, which gave me
marital problems.

You served two years,
less a day, for assault.

When I got out of jail,
I wanted my wife back.
I wanted my lifeback.

Uh, it doesn't look like
things are goin' so great
with the wife.

Are you livin'
with your wife again?

I got a ways to go
before Rita trusts me
whole-hog, you know, and--

Plus, she's not that excited
about the religious aspect.

Why is the F.B.I. interested
in the pastor drowning?

Oh, there's more than one way
for a person to drown.

Do you always
call her "pastor"?What else would I call her?

[ Switch Clicks ][ J.P. On Tape ]
Hey, it's J.P. again.

I'm sorry.
I-I miss you.

I need to see you.
It's important.

I really need you, Patty.
Please call. Please.

You got it all wrong.
That call is not
what you're thinking.

I was callin' the pastor
about Rita.

[ Booth ]
Really?Oh. H-Hold on a minute.

Look at the last photo.
He knew.

- You can't tell that
from a photo.
- Beg your pardon?

I can. He knew
that she used to be a man.

That doesn't show
in the photographs.
You know what I'm saying?

- About what Patricia
was before?
- I told you he knew.

What was your reaction when you
found out that Pastor Patricia
wasn't a real woman?

Don't say Patty
wasn't a real woman.
It makes you sound ignorant.

The pastor came between
you and your wife,
but she was livin' a lie.

You lost your manhood
and your religion all in one go.
Or did prison widen your tastes?

You're just pretending
to be a jerk to get a rise
out of this guy, right?

I didn't want to develop
feelings for Patricia,
but I did.

That didn't change when she
told me who she used to be.

- Who'd she use to be?
- What do you want, a name?
I don't know. I never asked.

Can't you look it up
on some legal name-change form?

If you would've ever met Patty,
you'd know what I know,
what God knows, what she knew.

- She was not a man.
- [ Angela ]
Yeah.

I'm with him on this one,
Booth.

Bone marrow and liver remnants
contain high concentrations
of ethinyl estradiol,

medroxyprogesterone acetate
and sprironolactone,
which is an anti-androgen.

- Hormone replacement therapy.
- Very healthy bone mass.

High percentages
of calcium and vitamin "D."

- Which indicates?
- A health nut.

Tox screen shows
Stamaril, Havrix monodose
and Engerix-B.

- Vaccinations?
- Yellow fever,
Hep "A" and Hep "B."

All necessary for traveling
to the Far East.

Did you know
that only 20% of Americans
have passports?

That's not irrelevant. It--
[ Stammers ]

Perhaps that's why there's
no record of this guy--
[ Stammers ]

woman--
having a sex change.

It could've happened in,
you know, Thailand.

Very good,
Mr. Nigel-Murray.

Though conjecture is not really
what we do here in the lab,

so--

But... very good--
[ Quietly ]
Mr. Nigel-Murray.

May I ask you something?Oh, God.
Is there any way to say no?

Whatever happened
to whoever it was who used
to work here before me?

He joined forces
with a serial killer...

who was the last in a long line
of cannibalistic murderers...

specializing in knocking off
members of secret societies...

and building skeletons
out of their body parts.

Wow. I-- I hope
that doesn't happen to me.

So he--
he's not coming back?

No. He's locked up
for the rest of his life.

- But we all still like him.
- Excuse me.

Mmm. Hello, hello, hello.

Are you familiar with
the expression, "That's way
too much car for you"?

I believe that's one of ours
actually. So, yes.

Hey.

- I wanna show you something.
- I want to show yousomething.

Vroom, vroom, kid.
You're already
in my rearview mirror.

[ Angela ]
Booth said the F.B.I.
couldn't find any record...

of an official name change
or anything showing...

who Patricia Ludmuller was
before the sex-change operation.

It's possible she had her
surgery done in the Far East.

In England,
the Speaker of the House
is not allowed to speak.

Anyway, what I did was--

- Here she is as a woman.
- Hmm, not bad.

I mean-- I mean,
th-the sketch. It--
Okay? Mm-hmm.

Here I made her
more masculine.

I made the bony prominences
more robust,

increased the size
of the mastoid processes
and the nuchal crests.

Seldom seen
bigger nuchal crests.

It doesn't look like anybody
you recognize?

- Should it?
- I also added facial hair.

Do you recognize him now?

- It's that guy.
- Oh, "Evil spirits, come out."

That's exactly what I thought.

[ Man ]
Yes, God makes demands of us.

This money
belongs to God, not me!

Who will join me in giving God
what is rightfully his?

He is asking you now,
at this moment.

What is your answer?
What is your answer to God
when he calls your name?

Will you deny him?

[ Beeps ][ Switches Off ]

Pastor Patrick
Stephenson.Disappeared six years ago.

Oh! Wow,
I got it right.

He disappeared from,
uh, Vietnam or Thailand--
one of those places.

Yeah, on a world tour.
His followers said
he was the first of many...

who'd be taken up
in the Rapture.

So that guy went from that
to being a woman pastor...

in a cottage
on Chesapeake Bay?

Hey, some people
would call that heaven.

Amazing job, Angela.

Yeah, well, check thisout.

- [ Remote Beeps ]
- She had a wife and son...

before she gave up being a he.
[ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ]

The Thai federal police
were certain that Patrick
had been robbed and killed.

Yeah, well, uh,
it's a lot to absorb.

A sex-change operation
in Bangkok, Thailand,
costs about $25,000.

You want me to believe
that Patrick stole money...

and then had himself
transformed into a woman?

- It's a scenario.
- Patrick was a religious man.

He would never offend God
in this blatant manner.

The theft, you mean,
because it's a sin.

A sex-change operation.

We are made in God's image,
Dr. Brennan. Who are we
to alter that image?

[ Chuckles ]
Obviously you dye your hair.

- There's evidence
of plastic surgery.
- That's different.

- Bones.
- How?

I-It's augmenting God's work,
not undoing it completely.
How about that, Bones?

Uh, we have a D.N.A. match
between your husband...

and the deceased female
found in the Chesapeake Bay.

- Do these people
believe in D.N.A.?
- Look. It seems as though...

your husband sent a check
made out to the church
every month.

A hundred dollars a month?Mm-hmm.

So Patrick was repaying us
for the money he took?

Actually, it's more accurate
to say that Patricia...

was repaying you
for the money
that Patrick took.

During these intervening years,
did your husband ever try
to contact you?

No. I believed the Thai police
when they declared Patrick dead.

And your son?Ryan would have told me
if he'd heard from his father.

Oh, we're gonna have
to talk to him.

Last I heard,
he was in California.

[ Sighs ]

After his father vanished,

Ryan took over
preaching the word of God
to our flock...

for about a year-- then he had
a crisis of faith and left.

Ryan is still
in the throes
of that crisis.

I have faith that,
in the fullness of time,
God will lead Ryan back to us.

Before your husband--Became a woman?

disappeared,

did he have any reason
to fear for his life?

A man named Arthur Ford
was arrested
for assaulting Patrick.

Why did he assault
your husband?He had a son.

The boy donated
his entire trust fund
to the church.

His father thought
that we'd brainwashed him
or some such nonsense.

Did you give the money back?

The boy wasn't brainwashed,
Dr. Brennan.

The Lord touched him.

Exactly how much money
did the Lord touch him for?

Five million dollars?Great. Thank you.

Five million is a ton of moola,
but Arthur Ford is not
a good suspect.

Why? What with the ton of moola
they practically stole
from his son.

That phone call I just had--
Arthur Ford died of pancreatic
cancer three years ago.

Oh.Yeah, "oh."

Do you think she loved
her husband?Who?

Mrs. Stephenson.Well, I don't know,
but she was plenty angry at him.

For getting
the sex-change operation?No, no, no. Before that.

I mean, she only called him
by his given name or referred
to him as "Ryan's father"--

never, you know,
"my husband."

I call you "Booth,"
and I like you just fine.Thank you,

but we're not married.

One angry father
might be dead, but, uh,
maybe there are more.

But Patrick Stephenson
wasn't murdered.
Patricia Ludmuller was.

You think the moment Patricia
Ludmuller came to exist,
Patrick Stephenson stopped?

When the butterfly emerges,
does the caterpillar
cease to exist?

Okay, what are you, like,
some kind of kung fu master?

Why don't we just figure out
who killed this guy--

gal-- person, okay?

Would you like me just as much
if I were a man?Oh, yeah. Much better.

Wouldn't have to be
so polite and accommodating.

How about you?
Would you like me...
better if I was a woman?

No. I would not.Why?

I'd be jealous that you might be
prettier than I am.I would be too.

I'd be hot--
smokin' hot.

[ Man On Speaker ]
They are not "gay."
They are not "homosexual."

They are abominations
unto the Lord.
They are sodomites--

[ Continues ]This kid
is Patrick Stephenson's son?

It would explain
why Patrick Stephenson chose
to disappear the way he did.

Unashamed,
they performed deeds...

that led them
into the hands
of an angry God.

Now this is a fairly
well-known moment, even though
it was never televised. Watch.

It is this ignorance
to the light of God...

that led to their doom.

I can't do this anymore.

I can't. I preach
against sins, sins I hate,

but other sins,
such as greed--

[ Quietly ]
Greed.

This is a palace,
and I am a prince.

I am not like my father.

And I am not like my mother.

I just want to do God's work--

not perform on television,

bilk you for your money.[ Congregation Murmurs ]

God bless us all.

God forgive us all.[ Congregation Continues
Murmuring, Whispering ]

- [ Whistles ]
- Ironically, he was
just like his father.

- You think he switched
sexes too?
- No, no.

They both turned their backs
on this kind of, uh,
commercial worship.

They both went out
into the world looking
for redemption.

I assume you're gonna
search out Ryan Stephenson.I work at the F.B.I.

That's what we do.
It's a big country,
and we'll try.

Well, concentrate
your search in hospitals,
halfway houses,

uh, rehab centers, jails.

You think things have gone
that badly for him?

No, no.
He's not an inmate
or a patient.

Ryan Stephenson
is literally atoning
for the sins of his father.

He left the palace
for the street. He's following
the teachings of Jesus.

His mother says
he's in California.No, she's wrong.

This kid--
he's the Prodigal Son.

I'll bet he's within 20 miles
of that giant church he fled
as a confused adolescent.

- I'll take that bet.
- All right. How much?

Twenty bucks.Deal.

- Deal. Shh. 20 dollars.
- Oh. Thank you.

Here you go.Thank you.

If you're making the wager,
how come I get the money?

- You're the bank.
- You're the bank, lady.

This comminuted fracture
on the pelvis is very similar
to the blow to the skull.

Both blows were inflicted
while Patricia Ludmuller
was still alive.

She was swimming.
She was struck on the head.
She drowned.

Then how were
her fingers damaged
and how was she cut in half?

Ah. Wow. You ask
extremely difficult questions.

The particulates found
about the skull wound
and the pelvis...

are fiber-reinforced polymers
and hydrocarbon secretion
of coniferous trees.

Which is what exactly?

Fiberglass and resin.Okay.
She was struck by a boat--

the keel of a boat.

Now we're getting somewhere.
Anything on the metacarpals?

You mean, could I tell
what hit her fingers? No.

It was either something that
didn't leave traces, or water
rubbed away all the evidence.

We'll show these images
to Dr. Brennan.Why?

'Cause she'll see something
you missed.
Some--

[ Chattering ]

So that's Ryan Stephenson?Yep. Found him in a detox center
in Silver Spring.

A patient?Nope. Counselor.
You called it.

- You owe me 20 bucks.
- Get it from Bones.

- Are you sure
it was my father?
- Yes. We're positive.

[ Exhales ]
They told me
Dad died in Thailand.

Well, he, um--
Well, she...

seemed to have found peace
up there on the island.

Named his church
"Inclusion"?Yeah.

He welcomed drug addicts,
prostitutes, homosexuals?

Oh, according
to her congregation
who loved her,

your father
welcomed everyone.

What?
You afraid your father's
gonna burn in hell?

No.
[ Chuckles ]

No, I just wish
I had the... chance--

[ Voice Breaking ]
to know the new him--

her.

I'm a suspect?

You thought, perhaps,
I found out my father was
a fraud who had a sex change,

and then God asked me
to kill him?

Did God tell you
to kill your dad?

I've changed.

Do you believe
in redemption?Yes, I do.

One of God's challenges to us
is to see past the surface...

to the deeper,
essential nature...
which lies right beneath.

You believe our bodies
are like dust covers?

That's exactly what I think,
Agent Booth.

Rip 'em off
and see what's underneath.

You see, all this time
I thought my father was killed
or had abandoned me,

and that's just not
what happened.

He didn't want
to shake my faith.

He was protecting me
from the truth. He--

He didn't want me to have
to choose between him and God,
a-and I love my father for that.

I just hope God can forgive me
for making him feel that way.

Do you think I could have
my father's Bible?

I'm afraid
it's still evidence.

But hey, we figure out
who killed your father,
we'll make sure you get that.

Thank you.

You ever consider returning
to the ministry, Ryan?

[ Beeps ]

Okay. So we know
Patricia Ludmuller
was run over by a boat.

The boat struck her
in two places: the skull
and the pelvic bone.

We found traces of enamel paint
and stain filler--

specifically,
Silver Neptune Mahogany--
and lead red primer.

It was a foggy day,
she was out there
swimming alone--

- This death
could've been accidental.
- Or hit-and-run.

No. It was murder.Only one percent of deaths
are murders.

Hodgins, you found pieces
of splintered wood
from the keel...

both in the skull
and the pelvic bone.

Yeah, from a wooden-keeled,
shallow-hulled speedboat.

The splinters
are embedded in the skull
from this direction.

- Struck from behind.
- And in the pelvic bone...

from this direction
at a 90-degree angle.

The boat hit her skull
from behind...

while she was facedown
in the water.

The second blow
hit her from the side,

and she was on her back
in the water.

She was struck once.
Then the boat turned around
to make sure she was dead.

Then hurt, disoriented,

she reached up
to clasp the gunwale?

Someone smashed her fingers,
forcing her to let go.

- Then she floated on her back.
- The boat left,
then turned around and...

struck her again. [ Beeping ]

Booth? We know exactly
how Patricia Ludmuller
was murdered.

Excuse me,
Dr. Saroyan.Yes, Vincent.

I-Is there a way
to quit working here...

without losing Dr. Brennan
as my grad supervisor?

Ah, I see.
You'd like to quit
this internship...

without losing
your academic standing.

Yeah.
[ Sighs ]Can I ask why?

It's absolutely impossible
to kiss your own elbow.

- And how is that relevant?
- It isn't, Dr. Saroyan,
but, um--

I'm someone
who loves knowledge,

and all of you are
very narrowly focused.

I-I-It's a good focus, I know--
catching murderers--

but, um, all in all,
I'd rather be like me
than like you.

So if you can help me out--

I'll take care of it
with Dr. Brennan.

We'll move on to another intern.

Did you know
that over 98% of people...

will respond with "Thank you"
if you say, "You're welcome"?

- You're welcome--
- Thank you.

Vino Delectable.

Based on size, wood grain
and shape of the keel,

Hodgins and Angela
narrowed our search down
to two models.

Oh, so it's a Lee Shore Island
and a Bow Wave Runabout. Okay.

So how'd she end up
split in two?

You mean, how did a man
become a woman?No, her spine was severed.

Oh, the polymer Hodgins found
was probably fishing line.

So she sinks,
decomposes,

and the fishing line
severs the spinal column.

Ah, some fisherman thinks
a big one got away.

You think it means anything?
I mean, she lives her life
split in two,

then in death,
split in two again.

No. I don't think
it means anything.I didn't think you would.

Wow. J.P., this here
is one fine vessel.
Isn't that, Bones?

-Yes.
-Look at that, huh? Flush-mount,
single-lever control box.

Check this out, Bones, huh?

He's got a wiring harness
under there.

Bench seats
with marine vinyl seat cushions.
This is just classic.

- How long have you
had this for?
- Years.

I only started restoring it
after I joined the church.

The pastor said
it'd be a good project for me.

-Did you take it out the day
Patricia Ludmuller disappeared?
-No.

-This is definitely the boat
that struck Patricia Ludmuller.
-What?

- Twice.
- Couldn't deal
with the rejection, J.P.?

Our psychological expert says
that many men freak out when...

they find the woman
they've been sleeping with
used to be a man.

We never slept together.

I wanted to.
I wanted her. She wanted me.

- But she refused.
I'm still married.
- That why you ran her down?

- That's where
you smashed her hand.
- No! Stop saying these things.

She must have been in a lot
of pain when she grabbed
the side of the boat.

I'm sure we'll find what he used
to smash her fingers right here
in the boat.
Ow.

My guess is this.

Bones, these seats-- they--
they aren't adjustable.
How tall do you think J.P. is?

190 to 195 centimeters.

- Just give me a simple height.
- Uh, 6'3" or 6'4".

- How about his wife?
- [ Brennan ] Oh, uh, perhaps
one hundred and--

5'2".That's all I need.
Thanks.

J.P., you didn't
restore this boat
for yourself, did you?

Pastor Patricia said I should do
something for someone else--
someone I love.

Then you should've
built it for her.

[ Rita ]
I waited for you
to get out of prison,

and I waited for you
to get sober,

and I waited
for you to get tired
of this stupid church.

And all you did
was fall in love
with another woman.

- I never slept with her, Rita.
- I don't believe that.

I'll never believe that.

Rita Gratton,

I'm placing you under arrest...

for the murder
of Patricia Ludmuller.

[ Ryan ] I think I should
begin my first sermon to you
as kind of an introduction.

My name
is Ryan Stephenson.

I am a child of man.
I am a child of woman.

But more importantly,
I am a child of God.

And as I look around,
I see others like me.

We don't look alike.
None of us look alike.

On the outside,
we are gay and straight,

black and white,
fat and thin,

man and woman,

saint and sinner.

- Should I keep going,
or do you guys catch my drift?
- [ Congregation Chuckles ]

But inside--

inside we're all the same.

- That is completely incorrect.
- [ Whispers ]
Not now, Bones.

Our skeletons
are wildly different,
or I wouldn't have a job.

Shh. Just listen.

I am sorry that I didn't
get to know my father--
Patricia.

- [ Congregation Chuckles ]
- But I hope I will find him--

her--

that redeemed human being,

both in her old Bible...

and, more importantly,
in you--

the people who she loved...

and who loved her back.

[ Chuckles ]
Redemption through
transformation. I get it.

What do you believe in,
Bones?

- I believe in always swimming
with a buddy.
- What?

You gather your wisdom,
I gather mine.Okay.
