MONTENEGRO:
Uh, Agent Booth?

Yes, Angela?

This is the pediatric cancer
floor of a hospital.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Right.

Well, what I'm about to show
Deputy Director Cullen

is kind of gruesome.

Why are we meeting
Cullen here?

Because he's the Deputy Director
of the FBI,

and this is where he wants us
to show it to him.

Okay, listen, about a month ago
his daughter Amy

was diagnosed with cancer--

meso...

Mesothelioma--
lung cancer.

Exactly.

She's not doing so well.

So it's a lot easier for us
to come to him right now.

Hmm.

What?

Nothing. It's just

that's an extremely rare
form of lung cancer.

Odd for someone Amy's
age to contract...

No, no, no.

No probing, okay?

Not to Cullen,
not to his family.

This'll take five minutes.
We go in there,

we do the show-and-tell
relating to the case,

and then we're out of there.

BOOTH:
Is that clear?

I just think it's peculiar...No.

But I...No.

You have to admit...Booth.

CULLEN:
Dr. Brennan.

How appropriate--
you two bickering

in an adolescent wing.

Uh, sir, yes.

Um, is it okay
if we come in, sir?

What do you think, sweetheart?

Booth's cool,
most of the time.

You heard the lady.

You're cool.

Mm-hmm.Yeah, right.

Are you sure it's all right
for me to do this here?

Nothing I haven't seen before.

Let's see what
you got here, Angela.

Note the estimated time
of death is mid-June.

BRENNAN:
Extreme humidity

combined with insects
and precipitation

accelerated the
rate of decomp.

CULLEN:
So, based on this,

the victim's body was not
mutilated after death?

BRENNAN:
The effects were
totally environmental.

Murder doesn't fit
the suspect's profile, sir.

It's not nice to
fool Mother Nature.

I'd like to see this again.

BRENNAN:
Knock yourself
out, sir.

86 times is our limit.

MONTENEGRO:
Can I see your drawings?

MONTENEGRO:
Wow. These are beautiful.

Our artist in
the making.

Right now I'm
doing landscapes.

I'm really into
this French dude, Rousseau.

MONTENEGRO:
Yeah, there's a
lot of Rousseau

in Paris.

Have you ever been
to the Louvre?

No, not yet.

But it's on my list.

Right after "fall in love"
and "learn to drive."

Well, you've got a great eye.

Thanks.

I think what you do
is pretty awesome, too.

I mean, computers are not
for me, but I get it.

Can I see
what you're working on?

She's amazing.

Mm-hmm.

Amy's been very
brave this week.

They're trying an experimental
viro-chemo therapy.

And we're very
optimistic.

BRENNAN:
Since asbestos exposure

is the primary way
people contract mesothelioma,

how do you think...

[ clears throat]

BRENNAN:
How do you think Amy got it?

CULLEN:
We don't know,
Dr. Brennan.

First place we looked
after she was diagnosed

was all her previous schools,

the house we lived in.
Nothing.

BRENNAN:
Has there been
a history of illness?

[ clears throat]

JULIA:
Hardly.

Apart from breaking her leg
snowboarding a year ago,

I can't remember the
last time she was sick.

How bad was the break?

Compound fracture, left tibia.

I was boarding
with some friends,

and I hit a tree.
Pretty dumb, huh?

And that required surgery?

A bone graft.

BOOTH:
You know, um,

I hate to drag these

lovely squints
back to the lab,

but we have another case.

No we don't.
Oh, yes we do.

Could I see Amy's
graft X-rays?

BOOTH:
Sir, I apologize...

Of course.

If you think they'll
tell us anything.

Whoa.

BRENNAN:
What?

Pardon the fromage reference,

but what's with the moldy
gruyere in that leg?

The lighter color
is evidence

of demineralization.

I'm not
the bone expert here,

but yuck.

Osteoporosis.

BRENNAN:
Basically.

The bone has become porous,

something that happens with age.

Zack, see if you can isolate

the grafted portion
and enlarge it.

ADDY:
Amy Cullen's file
states the donor of the bone

was 25 years old.

I don't buy it.

What about the aging disease?

I've seen progerian skeletons;
this isn't one of them.

This bone is
significantly less dense

than a person in their 20's.

That's for sure.

How old do you think
the donor really was?

Judging from
the reduction

in bone mass...

at least 60.

Doctor, you performed Amy
Cullen's graft, correct?

Yes, but I just do
the procedure, Ms. Brennan.

Dr. Brennan.

MD?

PhD.

Well, those who can't do,
do research.

Okay...Booth.

BOOTH:
Okay, fine.

If you're just the mechanic,

then who's responsible for all
the parts that you install?

You'll have to check

with the hospital's
transplant coordinator.

Why?
What's going on?

There are indications the
bone graft you implanted

in Amy Cullen
gave her cancer.

That's impossible.

Every graft we get

has been tested
and irradiated.

There's one way
to know for sure.

Assuming significant
remodeling hasn't occurred,

do a transiliac crest core
biopsy on the donor bone.

Then we'll have
age and pathology.

And who's going to perform
that biopsy, Doctor?

You are.

BOOTH:
Looks like it hurts.

BRENNAN:
They use local anesthetic

and make a
small incision

before inserting the
needle into the bone.

A tiny core of bone
is taken,

a little more than a sixth
of an inch in diameter,

using a ratchet-like device
in the needle.

So, it hurts?

Amy's a tough kid.

She's doing great.

It's not Amy I'm
worried about.

Let's go talk to
the coordinator who
bought the graft.

Unlike Amy, he gets
to go home tonight.

You're a popular man,
Dr. Ogden.

Well, when you're responsible
for finding body parts

that save lives,
you have no idea.

I had one gentleman offer me
his cattle ranch in Montana.

People, they get desperate.
Right?

Did you
take him up on it?

That would be dishonest,
Agent Booth.

If anything,
this office is built

on the goodness
of people.

Cullen, Amy A.

Bone graft number 4-4-2-9.

All right.

According to my report...

the bone that was
donated was harvested

from a 25-year-old.

Can you give us
the name of the donor?

I can't provide you
with that information.

BOOTH:
What about other recipients?

Any other patients here
get a part from the same body?

When I said I couldn't tell you,

it's because we have
no way of knowing.

You'd have to ask
the tissue bank for that.

BioTech Tissue Services.

We've been using them

for a long time;
never had a problem.

Amy Cullen has a problem.

She's dying.

Through no fault of this office,
I'm sure.

If we can be of any
further assistance,

don't hesitate to call.

Thanks for being
so sympathetic.

We'll check into it.

New osteologic scans
to input, as requested.

Hey, check this out.

Monet?

Amy Cullen.

You're kidding.

No. I ran it
through the digitizer.

She's a good kid.

I wanted to show her
that computers

don't have to
be the enemy.

Not bad for a certified member
of the geek squad.

I'll take that as a compliment.

You should.

BRENNAN:
This is a cross-section
from Amy's bone graft.

Zack, what's the ratio of
primary to secondary osteons?

I only see secondary.

Exactly what you'd expect
to see in an older decedent.

And accompanying data?

MONTENEGRO:
I'm no expert, but I think
it supports, as well.

So, based on
this one sample,

it's clear that
the donor bone

came from someone
in their 60's.

But how do we know
it's the bone that
gave Amy cancer?

Because of this.

BRENNAN:
Magnify.

The graft is
riddled with cancer.

Cancer consistent with

morphology origin
in the pleura.

Most likely mesothelioma.

Whoever this is had
terminal cancer.

And now so does Amy.

She went in for a broken
leg and was poisoned.

She never even
had a chance.

Someone knew that
bone was infected,

and they gave it
to her, anyway.

This will kill
Amy Cullen.

Well, in that case, it's murder.

Your daughter's cancer
originated in the bone graft.

The test confirms it.

It was the operation?

BRENNAN:
Not only was the bone

contaminated by malignancy,

it was significantly
older than documented.

It was expired or something?

No, sir, it came from
a much older donor.

Someone in their 60's.

Hospital error.

BOOTH:
The next step would be

to find out
where the graft came from

and how it slipped
through the system.

This is not FBI jurisdiction.

It's a question of justice.

Does this in any way change
my daughter's prognosis?

No.

So she's still going to die
of this cancer.

Barring spontaneous remission,

the likelihood is significant.

The FBI is not
my personal police force.

I appreciate
what you've discovered.

Call Charlie Hammond, CDC.

Tell him what happened.

They'll continue
the investigation.

My team can still...We'll notify

CDC right away.

BRENNAN:
So that's it?

Whoever did this

to Amy Cullen
just gets away?

No. What we do now

is we find out a way to make
this a legitimate FBI case.

If one graft is infected,

there's no telling
how many others are out there.

Jeez, you know, I feel like
I'm on a serial-killer case

just waiting for another

victim
to surface.

You're not far off.

What if BioTech makes a habit
of selling diseased parts?

Well, then it becomes
FBI business

if oneof these tainted grafts
is sold across state line.

Well, you can spit
into four states

from where we are right now.

What?

Not... literally.

Okay, first,
we have to find out

if this
tissue lab

is servicing
any other hospitals.

See if they've killed
anyone else.

Amy Cullen is not dead, Bones.

I'm afraid
there's

a degree of inevitability.

Sorry.

[ sighs]

It's pretty
excellent, huh?

Is that mine?

Uh-huh.

How'd you do that?

Most of the time,
I restore

and enhance old bones, so...
this was a lot more fun.

It's hard, you know.

One second I'm at school
and I'm gonna be an artist.

And the next...

My friends don't
know what to say.

My parents are scared.

Things change, I guess.

Yeah.

Yeah, sometimes they do.

Angela?

Is the Louvre
just unbelievable?

It's the most beautiful place
you'll ever see.

Maybe you can tell me
about it sometime.

You'll go there yourself.

I know
you will.

270, here's BioTech.

When we get in there,
we'll sweat the head guy.

[ knocking]Hello?

F... BI.

Okay.

So this is BioTech.

Sorry I couldn't be
any more help.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

All right,
building manager says

BioTech went belly-up
two years ago.

They couldn't even pay
the last month's rent.

Where'd they go?

Well, he doesn't know.

What, two years ago?

Exactly. And, I mean,
Amy Cullen's graft was sold

to Washington General
12 months ago.

If BioTech doesn't exist,

who sold the diseased bone
to the hospital?

Where is he?

Dr. Ogden had to oversee
the transport

of a liver
to Baltimore.

He won't be back
until morning.Oh, a liver?

Where'd he get
this one from, huh?

An alcoholic
at a corner bar?

We've dealt with BioTech
for years.

They're very
reputable.

There's no such
company as BioTech.

That's not possible.

BOOTH:
Well, you know
what I think?

I think Ogden's in on
the whole thing.

A little bio-medical payola.

Buys third-rate
parts

in exchange for
a condo in St. Croix.

Dr. Ogden's a very good man.

I know there were
problems in his past,

but that's...Oh, you mean there are
skeletons in his closet.

Well, I can't wait to see
this guy's record.

Alexandra, is there
any way to tell

if a patient at Washington
General received a graft

from the same donor
as Amy Cullen?

Only the tissue lab
knows for sure.

But... after you left,
I was curious,

and...

Please.

It's already too late for Amy,

but...

it might not be
for someone else.

A woman named Kelly DeMarco.

[ phone dialing]

It was a
car accident.

This is Booth.

I need a phone and address
for a Kelly DeMarco

in the Potomac area.

Two grafts, same day as Amy.

Both grafts came from BioTech.

When?

You sure?

Thanks.

Kelly DeMarco.

She's dead.

Oh, my God.

We need to know for sure if
she had the same kind of cancer.

We have to exhume her.

Kelly DeMarco,
age 32,

died of lung cancer
two months ago.

Take a biopsy of this
ulna graft from Ms. DeMarco,

and compare it with the
core sample from Amy's leg.

Now, look, I spoke
to DeMarco's husband.

She had the accident,
she had all the operations.

You know, never smoked
a cigarette in her whole life,

only to die of lung cancer

eight months ago.

ADDY:
When your number's up,
I guess, right?

I never understood
that saying:

"When your number's up."

Numbers and equations
are quantitative
and predictable.

Everyone knows
when a number's up.

How do you listen to this
all day?

I find intelligence soothing.

It's amazing

how quickly
this spread.

The grafts went
into this woman's body,

and within weeks
the cancer cells

metastasized
to her lungs.

By then the disease
was unstoppable.

Same bones, same donor.

Same disease.

Oh, look, I got three agents
out there right now

searching for BioTech,
but all we have to work on

is this e-mail address assigned
to a fictitious name.

Okay, let's just say that Ogden
and this fake tissue lab

are in cahoots.

How many other
bones out there

can be from
the same donor?

There are 206 bones in
the human body, Agent Booth.

Of those, any number
of them are graftable.

Okay, you're saying that

hundreds of people
could still be out there

with cancer time-bombs
in them

and not even
realize it?

We need to call every hospital
in the D.C. area.

If they acquired BioTech grafts
at the same time as Amy,

those recipients
need to be tracked down

and tested immediately.

Fine.
If you're right,

then the Bureau can then
officially designate this

a "serial killing."

Agent Booth?

The records you've been
waiting for.

BOOTH:
Well, look at this.

Alexandra Combs,
she wasn't lying.

Background check
turns up that Ogden

was fired from a private
hospital in Denver.

Reason?

BOOTH:
Accepting a bribe

for bumping someone up
on the donor lists.

This guy is dirty.

OGDEN:
Look.

What I did in Denver
was wrong,

but I did it for good reason.

To line your pockets?

The money went

to keep a struggling
clinic afloat.

Besides, it came from a family
that could afford it.

So taking advantage
of wealthy people is okay?

I'm not saying I'm proud
of what I did, Dr. Brennan,

but just because
I took that bribe

doesn't mean I had
anything to do with this.

Why don't you tell us about
your relationship with BioTech?

Same that I have with every
company I deal with--

a virtual one.

E-mails, on-line
financial transactions.

My assistant sends out
a country-wide search

for the organ or bone

that we're
looking for.

They respond back,
and we bid.

If we can reach an agreement,

then the part
is immediately

transported for surgery.

And in Amy Cullen's case?

Same protocol:
I bid,

I bought, I received.

No conversations were had.

We are not required
to check out suppliers

each and every time
we take an order.

You know what, Ogden,
I'm going to contact

every bank you've
done business with.

If I find one deposit
that's suspicious,

you know what?
You're mine.

I swear to you
I am not involved in this.

I haven't hurt anybody.

AMY:
Your work is awesome.

MONTENEGRO:
Thanks.

There's so much
going on, you know.

So much to feel.

I don't know
if I'll ever be able

to do something
like this.

You will.

Just give it time.

Well, I may not have
a lot of that.

Your paintings
and your sculpture.

They're alive, you know?

It's like...

you're showing me
how you felt

when you painted them.

What you've experienced.

I can't paint
what I don't know.

Amy, you've been through
more than most people.

You mean dying?

It's not enough.

I really think it's best
for you to stay positive.

Keep doing things,
you mean?

With your art?

Yeah, absolutely.

What about guys?

Ah, well.
[ laughs]

That totally goes
without saying.

What's his name?

Aaron.

His family just
moved here from Maine.

Is he cute?
He's so cute.

Did you ask him out?

No. He asked me,
but...

I don't know, I said no.

Why?

Look, you haven't asked
my advice,

so I'm just going
to give it to you.

Okay?

Just have fun.

You know, every
once in a while, you...

you might meet somebody
who's worth it.

What if he's not?

Then you've got something else
to paint about.

The Bureau's canvassed
every hospital in the area.

Four have been using
BioTech bone grafts.

And three recipients
from those hospitals

have lung cancer.

HODGINS:
Here's another one.

And this one died of lung cancer
three months ago.

I'm checking
on a burial site.

That makes 13, including
Amy and the DeMarco woman.

Probably all from
the same donor.

We're still waiting on
Bethesda Naval Hospital.

Can you ID these people?

ADDY:
Yeah, names and addresses
on all of them.

BRENNAN:
I've already contacted
Washington General

to set up a biopsy
testing facility.

Whew, man.

How can one dead guy
do so much damage?

That's a good idea.

What idea?

BRENNAN:
Identify the donor,

and we might be able to find out

how BioTech
got his bones.
HODGINS:
Got it.

Second decedent's name
is Ronald Lupo.

I found him at a cemetery
in Lynchburg.

Virginia?

Yeah, why?

Because it means that this fraud
just crossed state lines

and became
a legitimate case
for the FBI.

Looks like I don't have to use
my sick days anymore, huh?

How many?

Sick or dead?Dead.

But that makes it
a multiple homicide case.

And since it's not isolated

to the District,
and the recipients

are in
multiple states...

This falls under
FBI jurisdiction.

Yes, sir.

I should kick your ass.

Yeah.

What'd you do, take sick time
to work on this?

Yeah.

Migraine.

Thanks, Booth.

Catch the son of a bitch
that did this to my daughter.

That's absolutely
my intention, sir.

♪

♪

Results?

So far there are three other
early signs of cancer cells.

Aggressive chemo and radiation
treatments should be able

to slow it down.

Admiring your
handiwork, Doctor?

I'm sorry.

Amy?

Let me.

Easy.

Hey.

You all right?

Did all these people get bones

from the same
donor I did?

Uh-huh.

Do they all have cancer?

No, not all of them.

But the sooner the ones
who are infected know,

the better.

Who would do
a thing like that?

If they knew they were sick,
why make other people

sick, too?

I don't know.

It's terrible.

But that's what we're trying
to figure out.

So,

if you take the bad grafts out,

will they be okay?

Some of 'em.

But...

not me?

No.

I want this out of me.

Sweetheart, you're not
strong enough...

Get them to take it out.

Amy, you have to understand.

All of these people...

I don't care!

You're saving their lives.

We've traced all these
grafts back to the donor

and still know
almost nothing.

Well, not exactly nothing.

Zack, look at the slope of the
sciatic notch in the pelvis.

And the non-elevated
auricular surface.

Hewas definitely male.

The osteon count
in the femoral joint confirms

the donor was over 60.

It's a solid start,
but we need a lot more.

Osteophytosis

with narrowing of
intervertebral spaces

indicates consistent
heavy lifting.

Construction worker?

It's hard to say,
exactly.

Definitely a burly type.

If we can keep guessing about
what he was like on the inside,

then Angela can hypothesize

about his appearance,
size, weight.

I'm on it.

I scanned in the X-rays
of all the graft recipients,

as well as the pieces
from the exhumed bodies.

BOOTH:Okay.

Now what?
Connect the dots?

More like connect
the body parts.

Think of it as sculpting
from the inside out.

The more that I know about

our donor, the better
I can guess

what he might
have looked like.

The fragments originated from
nine sites on the donor's body.

If we connect the grafts...

Now input all
the anatomical factors

and core anomalies.

ANGELA:
Guys, meet Donor X,

the man who caused
all this pain.

BRENNAN:
So that's our
serial killer.

BOOTH: God, he probably
had no idea how much damage
he was gonna cause.

Do we have enough
to track him down?

Hodgins?
HODGINS:
Maybe.

With LIBS.

Who's Libs?

Laser Induced
Breakdown Spectroscopy.

It'll give us an elemental
analysis of the old bastard.

Angela told us
what he looked like.

Now Hodgins can tell us
where lived.

Well, we'll find him.

We have to.

[ high-pitched whirring]

HODGINS:
Strontium isotope
levels suggest

Donor X lived the last
20 years on the East Coast.

Extremely low
levels of fluoride

in the cancellous bone.

BRENNAN:
Unusual, since

most tap water
is fluoridated.

Except for parts
of the Appalachian mountains.

A few of the Hatfields and
the McCoys still have no teeth.

So, we're looking for someone
from Tennessee, West Virginia,

or North Carolina.

Oh, great. That, uh,

narrows it down.

HODGINS:
High levels of C8.

That's a key ingredient
of Teflon.

ADDY:
There's a Teflon plant

in Parkersburg, West Virginia.

And miniscule traces
of nuclear sub particles.

ADDY:
Wasn't there a problem

about 15 years ago
at Brant's Cliff
Power facility?

Yeah, just a little one.

Employees there were
growing a second head.

Can you say cover-up?

Okay, where's
Brant's Cliff?

West Virginia, also.BOOTH:
Okay, fine.

So then we're trying
to ID a guy

who's 65 years of age,
roughly 200 pounds,

lives in West Virginia,
died of lung cancer

within the
last year, right?

BOOTH:
Hey, look,
there are three potential

West Virginia donors
we could be talking about.

There's-There's Lester
Blake out of Tague.

There's Blair
Simmons out of...[ tires squealing ]

[ honks horn]Hey, lady,
watch where you're driving!

I'd rather not be
a donor myself.

Blair Simmons out of Daily.

And William Hastings
out of Beard's Fork.

All three men died
of mesothelioma last August.

Okay, we'll be in Beard's Fork
within about an hour, okay?

You sure Zack and Hodgins
are on the other two, right?

[ phone rings]This is Brennan.

Dr. Brennan, I'm at
Lester Blake's exhumation.

I've examined the remains.

[ phone rings]This is Booth.

Blair Simmons isn't dead.

What?

He's frozen.

What do you mean, frozen?

Like a supermarket turkey.

And I think he's wedged between
Walt Disney and Ted Williams.

ADDY:
There's no sign of

his casket hasn't been opened

since his burial.

So if Simmons isn't our donor...

Mrs. Hastings,
what did your husband do

for a living?Ah, this and that.

Bill worked in construction
for a time.

Did the night shift
down at Brant's Cliff.

Opened a roofing business
a few years back.

Roofing?

Shingling and fire proofing
and such.

So he handled asbestos?

Doctors say
that's what finally got him.

Why are you all so curious?

BOOTH:
Well, Mrs. Hastings,
your husband did time

for petty theft and fraud.

I mean, you lost your
home, your cars.

He left you with nothing.

Ah, Bill Hastings
was an old fool

who deserved what came to him.

BRENNAN:
You needed money.

Did anyone approach you
about selling his parts

after he died?

Pardon?

I-I'm afraid I don't follow.

Well, his family has
a cemetery plot in Kincaid,

yet you cremated him.

Are you...
are you hiding something?

[ scoffs]

I did that because the guy

at the funeral home said
it was cheaper.

We couldn't afford
a proper burial.

What funeral home?

Um, it was called Martin...
I think.

Where are the ashes?

Out back in the yard.

Do you mind if
we take a sample?I sure as hell do.

I don't like what y'all

are accusing me of doing.

All right, we'll
just come back

with a warrant,
that's all.

You better bring you some dogs

and bring those trigger-happy
agents of yours, too,

'cause this conversation
is over.

Come on, Bones, let's go.

Have a nice day.

BOOTH:
Look, she insists

that her husband
wasn't the donor,

but the evidence
is overwhelming.

If I could get my
hands on a soil sample,

I know there are bone
fragments still intact

that we can positively
identify him with.

Was there an insurance
policy in place?

None. More reason
to sell the illegal grafts.

Look, the funeral home

had to have been in
cahoots with her.

So, all you have
to do is connect the widow

to the funeral home.

Then the home
to BioTech.
Mr. Cullen?

We need to
speak to you

and Amy's mother
privately.

She's telling them
the treatment didn't work.

And there's nothing else
they can do.

I hate seeing
them so sad.

[ whispers]: Bones?Bones?

Bones, I know that you find
dead people intriguing,

but just try to put
on your sad face.

[ Booth clears throat]

Mm-hmm.

I'm sorry.
I'm in the middle of a service.

BOOTH:
Well, this will
only take a minute.

Uh, Mr... Jessup--
he-he ain't going nowhere.

And what's this about, exactly?

William Hastings.

Uh, is he someone you've lost?

BOOTH:
More like
somebody

we've found.

He passed away a year ago.

You cremated him, but somehow,
his bones were illegally

harvested prior
to the procedure.

Uh, not here.

What do you mean?Well, this is my mortuary.

I've been in business
almost a decade,

and I have no recollection
whatsoever of a Mr. Hastings.

His wife mentioned
this place specifically.

It's unfortunate,

but the bereaved
are often confused.

In this case,
I don't think so.

Wedon't think so.

If you'll excuse me,
I have mourners waiting.

BOOTH:
Well, maybe
you can just

double-check your records
and get back to me.

I would,
but my records are impeccable.

There's nothing
to double-check.

Well...

That was quick.

I need to get those ashes
from her yard.

You got' em. All right,
I'll get the warrant.

And don't forget the dogs

and the gun toting agents
she asked for.

Oh, believe me,
trust me, I won't forget that.

So I looked it up
on the Internet.

You can get $10,000 for grafts
on the black market these days.

[ laughs
]Ten grand?

Jeez, my bones are
worth more than that.

What makes you so special?

Three glasses
of milk a day,

I work out, and
I eat right.

X-ray micro-fluorescence
shows a high concentration

of calcium carbonate.

That's a revelation.

Seriously, Hodgins,

is there anything
that we can link

to William Hastings'
medical records?

Everything tracks--
the cremains are consistent

to those of William Hastings.

Question I keep asking is,

if the widow is guilty,

why keep the remains
so close to home?

What if she didn't
know about it?

Oh, come on, Bones.
She hated the guy.

My guess is
she's got ten Gs

stuffed in her mattress
back in Trailerville.

No, I mean it.

There are no unusual
bank records, no deposits.

What if they took the grafts,

gave her back the ashes,
and she was none the wiser?

Man, is she gonna be pissed.

So, if it's not
the widow Hastings,

I'm doubling down on
the mortician. Everybody in?

You in?

Thank you. Ah, jeez.

Excuse me. This body
is being prepped.

What do you want?

What we want is to know

where you harvested
Mr. Hastings' body.

I told you,
I don't know who Hastings is.

Well, we think you're lying.

We think you're selling bone
and tissue grafts illegally.

And I think your accusations
are outlandish,

and you should call my lawyer.

Yeah? Well, we have a warrant
here to look around a little.

What's this place?

Casket showroom.
They're having a sale.

It's like a sick
department store.

All right, you know what?

Nobody would be cutting
anybody up in this place.

Let's go.

Whoa. Wait.

Over there.

What?

It's a water line.
What's the big deal?

But the floor slopes toward
the center of the room.

This wasn't always
used for a showroom.

I wonder what's
under the carpet.

Huh.

If body work
was done in here,

they'd need a drain.

You kidding me?
It's a drain?

This is our sales office.

There is nothing
in here

you need to see.

The only thing
in this room is caskets.

I'm not so sure
about that.

You're making a mistake.

Am I?

MARTIN:
She's ruining
my merchandise!

Come on. How much
is that one?
$7,000.

Bones, watch
the scuff marks.

Mr. Martin,

this room is designed
to be washed clean.

You've got drains in the floor.

I think this is where

you did
the bone harvesting.

When you thought
we were coming back,

you moved everything around.

That's absurd.

I did no
such thing.

You're an excellent
house cleaner.

But in the carpeting
and tidying up,

you forgot about one thing.

BRENNAN:
Bone dust.

You forgot about
airborne particles.

Today, Zack.
I need something today.

Hey, don't harass
my assistant.

That's right.

That's our job.

ADDY:
I sifted dust particles

through a series of filters,

then separated
the largest pieces

and magnified them
to compare the osteons.

BRENNAN:
The particles
in the vent

definitely came from cutting
human skeletal remains.

William Hastings' remains?

ADDY:
I'm comparing particles

to the biopsy we excised

from Kelly DeMarco.

Compare.

BOOTH:
So?

Is it him?

It's him.

But here's the kickster...

"Kicker," Bones.
Here's the kicker.

Oh.

There's bone dust
from at least seven other bodies

in that vent filter as well.

Seven?

Cutting through periosteum

for grafting purposes
takes medical training.

ADDY:
Except for
the tainted samples,

these bone grafts
are expertly harvested.

Okay, so we're
looking for someone

who has medical training.

Martin is a mortician,
not a doctor.

BRENNAN:
Let's say he's
running a chop shop.

Let's say he was selling
illegal parts to tissue labs.

Who was actually
doing the cutting?

And who was selling
to hospitals as BioTech?

How much money have you made
over the years

doing this,
Nick, hmm?

Tens, oh, hundreds of
thousands of dollars?

I don't know
what you're talking about.

BOOTH:
William Hastings

had an aggressive form of cancer
that was very rare.

You made some pocket change
off his grafts.

You didn't even tell his wife.

Now a bunch of people are sick.
Two died.

You're looking at
multiple counts of murder.

I didn't kill anybody.

No, no, you didn't
kill anybody.

I mean, they were already dead.

You were just recycling.

I didn't do anything wrong.

You have
any doctor training?
No.

Spend any time in the service
as a medic or a nurse?

Then who did the cutting?

BOOTH:
Who did the cutting
of the grafts, huh?

Somebody knew
what they were doing.

Your phone records show
that during

the months around
Hastings' death, you received

dozens of calls
from disposable cells.

Four different ones, huh?

What do you make of that?

I don't recall this.

BOOTH:
You know what?

The dust that we got

off the vent in your showroom
matched Hastings

and seven other bodies.

Who do you work with?

I don't know
what you're talking about.

BOOTH:
I think you do.

I think you and
your partners knew

that the bones were cancerous,
and you didn't care!

Who is it, huh?

Who the hell did this
to my daughter?!

Huh?!
Sir, sir.

I got him, sir.
Please.

Bones, how long is it
going to take you to...

Bones?!

Come on.

Oh, Dr. Brennan.

You startled me.

Mind if I come in?

Not at all.

I was just trying to
keep things organized.

What we do here is so important.

We can't risk
making any mistakes.

Ms. Combs, tell me, what do you
use these phones for?

Recipients, primarily.

We never know when a donor organ
is going to come in.

So it's imperative that they
can be reached at all times.

Ever use one yourself?

What can I do for you, Doctor?

Have you always wanted
to work in a hospital?

I mean, it's incredibly
rewarding, I know.

But you ever want
to study medicine?

I did at one time. Yes.

How do you feel, Ms. Combs?

Have you been
coughing at all?

Do you feel
a tightness in your chest?

I feel fine, actually.

How often does Dr. Ogden
write prescriptions?

Rarely.

As coordinator, he
doesn't practice.

Yet the pharmacy downstairs
told the FBI

that he wrote you a script
for an expectorant

for a cough.

Well, there must be
some mistake.

He'd never...

You wrote that prescription
yourself, didn't you?

I know what you've been
doing with Martin,

to Hastings and the others.

See, if you'd finished
medical school, you'd know.

Bone dust is very dangerous
if inhaled.

When you were
taking those grafts,

I doubt you were
wearing a mask.

You're sick, Ms. Combs.

And I don't just mean

in a mentally disturbed way.

This is ridiculous.

You can't prove anything.

We're in a hospital.

Why don't we go get
a chest X-ray and find out?

BOOTH:
I'd like to read
you your rights.

Alexandra,
what's going on?

HODGINS:
So the transplant assistant
fancied herself a doctor?

Not a doctor exactly,
but qualified enough

to extricate bone grafts
from a cadaver.

And what about
BioTech Tissue Labs?

Once, it was
a legitimate company.

Combs kept it alive on the Web
and funneled the money

into her own
well-disguised bank account.

So where does that leave Amy?

Same as where she started,

just with answers,
that's all.

Well, that is perfect.

BRENNAN:Angela.

I got it.

Hey.

Hey.

You all right?

Yeah.

No.

No, I'm not.

Look, we can solve
100-year-old crimes.

We can... we can track down

serial killers
and identify people

when nothing is
left of them but sludge.

So why can't we help
a 15-year-old girl?

All she wants to do

is fall in love

and visit the Louvre.

You can do that.

What do you mean?

You made a whole guy
out of bone chips and lights.

You can create
the Louvre.

What about love?

What do you have
to say about love?

It's overrated.

Most of the time.

MONTENEGRO:
Okay.

Now, tell me what you see.

AMY:
Oh, wow, no way.

Angela, this is unbelievable.

Welcome to the Louvre.

AMY:
I'm really there.

That's amazing.

Is this your doing,
Dr. Brennan?

No, sir.

It's all Ms. Montenegro.

Thank you, Angela.

You're welcome.

So what do you think?

I think it's like heaven.

I don't know what to say.

Don't say anything.

You don't have to.

What's that mean?
