[ Men Chattering ]

Saunders, Dubovich.Yeah.

Check these hot spots,
we're good to go.You got it.

- What's up, Conner?
- Hey, pop this wardrobe.

Don't want a flare-up
dragging us back out here
this weekend.

Whoa!

That's a new one on me.

[ Brennan ]
Order in successful societies
depends upon enforced rules.

[ Booth ] People can do the
right thing left on their own.No, history shows otherwise.

A weak government
will always spawn
mutiny and rebellion.

You don't believe
in human decency
under any circumstances.

Not as a means of
controlling a population, no.
The result would be anarchy.

Have to say I agree
with the pretty lady
on this one.

Without the strong arm
of the law, we're animals.
Sheriff Gus Abrams.

Thank you for comin' out here.[ Brennan ]
What caused the fire?

Well, it could be arson.
The fire boys say they didn't
find any sign of an accelerant.

The source of the flame
looks like a lit candle.Was someone killed?

Well, that's
why we asked
for you people.

Oh-ho!

Whoa. Okay.
Is that real, Bones?

- Yes.
- I was hoping no.

The bones were already
dry and de-fleshed
prior to the fire.

The victim was elderly,
female.

- Oh.
- Oh? Wait. You usually
don't say "Oh."

- It was an indication
of my surprise.
- Well, I know that. But why?

The bones have been
re-articulated.

Is that bad?

The skeleton
has been reassembled,
quite amateurishly.

See how the right ulna
has been placed
with the left radius?

Yeah. That's shoddy.
That's shoddy work.

- Hey, guys.
- [ Booth ] Yeah.

Hodgins noticed
that there's a path
all the way around the house.

And Angela noticed
that it was a circle.

Looks like it acted
as a firebreak.

Also dusted
with some fine powder.

[ Cawing ]

Those are crows.
You city people
may not be familiar.

Crows are
carrion birds, Sheriff.
They scavenge for fresh kill.

Uh-oh!
When she starts flopping
her elbows like that,

she's hot on the trail
for something.

Well, I don't wanna think
about what she's after.

[ Cawing Continues ]

Booth?Yeah.

Okay, hold on.

Let me get this.
[ Grunting ][ Angela ] Oh, wow.

[ All Exclaim ]

[ Angela ]
Oh, God.Whoa.

D-Don't say it.Oh, I've got to.

We aren't
in Kansas anymore.

Whoa! Okay. I don't like it
when dead things move.

Did you see that?
It was moving there.

[ Device Beeps ]Who do you want
to start with?

The Wicked Witch
of the East over here?
The East, right?

Right.
She wore the red shoes.

We should start with
the more recent remains.

Which are sealed up.

What is it with this job
and corpses encased
in mystery wrap?

Dr. Hodgins says
it's most likely polystyrene
ceiling insulation...

that melted in the fire
and coated the body.

Could he explain the sparkle?

Fluorescent bulbs
exploded afterward,
shattering over the polystyrene.

Perhaps you and Dr. Hodgins
can find a way
to unseal the remains.

Well, let me see
if I can get in here.

Wire ligatures
around the wrist
indicate foul play.

No evidence
of smoke inhalation.

She was dead
before the fire.

Now, that one is just weird.

These bones were found
in a steel wardrobe.

It preserved her
in the fire.

Uh, female, also Caucasian,
40 to 50 years old.

There's evidence of
spinal kyphosis which would've
given her a hunched posture.

This stain here on the forehead
is the result of contact
with copper.

I've seen this before
in disinterred bodies because of
the copper hardware on coffins.

So someone robbed a grave,
strung together a skeleton
and stuck it in a wedding dress?

That's a reasonable conclusion.

These are
greenstick fractures.

Extreme force
was applied to the chest.

And there's
a clean-edged indentation...

of the spinous processes,
L2 and L3.

Thoracic crushing combined
with the puncture wound.

This woman was subjected
to a kind of torture that
was used in the 17th century.

Torture?

These injuries are consistent
with a form of punishment...

used during
the Salem witch trials.

[ Saroyan ]
She was a witch?

[ Angela ]
You know what I think?

I think Cam sent us both
to the crime scene because
of the tension between us.

Tension?
There's no tension
between us.

Yeah, at first I thought
it was because I'm suddenly,
I don't know, available again.

And then I thought maybe
it was because you think
that I treated Wendell badly.

Hold on. Wendell said
that it was totally mutual.
He said that you were wonderful.

Yeah, I'm not sure how I feel
about you two discussing me.

Not discussing you.
Complimenting you.

Okay, fine.
No more compliments.

You don't
look good today,

your smile
is ordinary at best,

and it is not cool that we
finally get to work together
again in the field.

Okay, that's fine.

I can live with that.

[ Device Beeps ]This symbol is very creepy
on this chimney.

All right, let me see.

- [ Beeps ]
- You see?

Oh, yeah.
Could be a lot of things.

- [ Alarm Beeping ]
- Whoa.

[ Beeping ]What is that?

Oh, the-- the Prius helps you
stay in your lane.

That's kind of cool.It iscool.
Let's do that again.

[ Alarm Beeping ][ Siren Wailing ]

Oh, that is not cool.

I didn't even see him there.
That's pretty sneaky. Pull over.

I'll pour on the charm.[ Chuckles ]

[ Police Radio Chatter ]

It's Sheriff Abrams
from the crime scene.

- Oh.
- Oh, perfect.

Good afternoon, sir.
I observed you crossing
the double yellow.

How much have you
had to drink today?

Sheriff Abrams, it's us--
Hodgins and Angela.
We just left the crime scene.

We're heading up north
to drop off our stuff
at the lab.

I know, Dr. Hodgins. I'm just
following the law. Have you
had anything to drink today?

Hi, Sheriff.
[ Chuckles ]

Listen, um, I really do like
a man in uniform
who loves his job.

So, uh, neither one of us
has had anything to drink, no.

Hello, Miss Montenegro,
but I'm afraid I need
the driver to respond.

Yeah, yeah. I've had
several martinis, some absinthe
and a barrel of mead.

License
and registration please.

He was kidding. I mean,
he was just being an idiot.

You too please.

A real Salem witch?
That's awesome.

Relax, simmer down.

The strontium isotope results
verify Massachusetts.

- Oh! Can I see it?
- What's the big deal?

My first published work
concerned the collective
sociopathology...

behind the Salem witch trials.

I'm a leading expert.

Shrinkery meets witchery.
Now your head's probably
about ready to explode, huh?

It's a completely
acceptable arena of study,
even for a psychologist.

Thank you.
At last I feel validated.

Most cultures believe that some
sort of supernatural power...

can be elicited through ritual.

Like you going to church.Well, at least I don't
ride there on my broomstick.

Most witches align themselves
with the Wiccans.

But witchcraft is an extremely
heterogeneous subject...

which encompasses the dark arts,
like evil spells, sacrifices--

So you're saying this
creepy old witch came back from
the dead to kill this victim?

- No.
- No, of course not.

But we are talking about
a three-century-old body...

that was rearticulated
and costumed as a virgin,
are we not, Dr. Brennan?

Well, given that women in
those times were expected to be
virgins on their wedding days,

that's reasonable.

- I wanna work on the case.
- What are you gonna do,
cast a spell? Ha!

I wanna see if I can find
a link between the old witch
and the new witch.

All right, go for it.
It's all yours.

There's no evidence
the other victim was a witch.

[ Cell Phone Ringing ]Aside from the fact she was
wearing red slippers...

and her feet curled up
after she was dead.

Booth.What?

There's a completely scientific
explanation for it. B-Y-R-D.

Cheri Byrd.[ Beeps ]

So that creepy house
belonged to a woman
by the name of Cheri Byrd,

and she has
a surviving brother.

Are you sure it's Cheri?

Dental records
confirm her identity.

When was the last time
you spoke to your sister?

Two, three months ago.

Someone made an offer
on the house.

Our grandfather
left it to us both.

I wanted to sell.
She refused.

We haven't spoken since.

You don't seem too surprised
that she's dead.

Cheri and I
used to be really close.

You know, but, uh,
last 10 years, she got into
some really weird stuff.

Witchcraft?

Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Started ordering us
to call her Zephyra.

I told her I wouldn't.
Thought it was stupid.

So the fact that she didn't
sell the house, that didn't
get you upset or angry?

No. No, I-I didn't care
about the money.

I-I wanted her
to move to the city.

I thought her mind
might go back to normal
if she saw more people.

- Who wanted to buy the house?
- Guy named Mario Trivisini--
Trivisonno.

Making
some big development.

He said Cheri's place
was the key.

The key? Why?Lake access.

When Cheri said no,
he had to give up
on the whole project.

Oh. You're
not Hodgins.

He's not here,
and I can't wait any longer.

Wait for what?

Dr. Brennan wants me to
identify the best solvent...

to remove polystyrene from--
on the bones.

So I put myself in the mind-set
of Dr. Hodgins...

and came up
with this experiment.

I have a new appreciation
for Dr. Hodgins.

Okay.

This device slowly fills
each polystyrene cup up...

with kerosene,
propylene, turpentine,

hydrochloric acid and--

[ Sizzles ]acetone.

Oh!

Acetone.

Oh-oh! Oh.

It's not like Hodgins
to be late.

Can you come get me
as soon as he shows up?Mm-hmm.

And I think the acetone's
eating through your shoes.

What?

[ Gasps ]
No! No, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.

Oh, man,
I love these shoes!

We live in
a fascist state.

If you know that,
then why did you taunt
the guy with the gun?

You expect me
to just roll over?

No. I'm praying
that you do though.

Okay, here he comes.
Listen, Hodgins, be nice,
or I will cause you great pain.

So, uh, have we
cleared this up, Officer?

Not quite.

Now the problem is that
Miss Montenegro here
is a criminal.

I found
an outstanding bench warrant
on you, young lady.

- What?
- For what?

For defying a "notice to appear"
on a speeding charge.

Oh. Yeah, well, that--
I didn't speed.

But you did defy
a bench warrant,
which is worse than speeding.

And, Dr. Hodgins,
you have a warrant
for escaping police custody...

during a Freedom of Information
protest eight years ago.

People have a right to know.

But not a right to run away.

Okay, all right, listen,
I will appear,

and Hodgins
will surrender as soon
as we get back, okay?

- Word of honor.
- It's not up to me.

I can't let you go
until the judge
rules on your warrants.

- Well, when will that be?
- Whenever one shows up.

In the meantime,
I suggest you two
make the best of things...

the best you can.

Hey, no-- Hey!

[ Sighs ]

Speeding?

Don't you dare.

Oh. Thanks so much
for coming in there,
Mr. Trivisi--

Uh, Trivisonno.
Trivisonno Properties.

Right.

So, hey,
this is something new for me--
to be called in by the F.B.I.

[ Chuckling ]
What's this all about?

Yeah, I-I--
I know this house.

- Bet you'd get a good deal
on that now, huh?
- Yeah? Why's that?

You don't know where
I'm goin' with this, pal?

Maybe it was your aunt
that lived there?
[ Chuckling ]

You're-- You're thinkin'
I wanna buy the place now?

No way. I learned my lesson.

Wh-What do you mean
you learned your lesson?

You see me now?

You see me there?

See the difference?

- Yeah, you shaved your head.
- No, I did notshave my head.

Your aunt put a curse on me,
and all the hairs
fell off my body.

All the important ones.

Well, first of all,
Cheri Byrd is not my aunt,
and, secondly, she's dead.

Well, here's hopin'
a curse loses its oomph
after the voodoo lady dies.

Apparently she was murdered.
So you wanna know
what I'm thinking?

Guy thinks he's cursed,
he loses his hair
and he wants her dead.

No, you couldn't have got me
anywhere near that lady-- not
to kill her, not for anything.

She painted this symbol
on the bricks on the chimney.

And inside there was
all this spooky stuff,

black candles.

The day she cursed me,
there was a dead cat laid out
on the dining room table.

- So you ditched the project.
- A month ago.
I'm a professional.

You think I need it to get
around that an evil witch
lived on the development?

I know when to cut and run.

Just wish I'd done it
a week earlier.

[ Device Beeps ]

Hodgins isn't back yet?

No. But I've made
some progress.

I found this.

Sharp instrument trauma
on the xiphoid process
of the sternum.

And anterior-medial aspect
of ribs one and four,
bilaterally.

She was stabbed repeatedly.

Yeah.

Make casts
to analyze the striations
and kerf characteristics...

to determine the weapon.

I also found this
on the manubrium.

What is it?

That's a Dr. Hodgins job,
if we had him.

Which we don't.And you haven't
heard from him at all?

He and Angela
never came back last night.

And since
they used to be intimates,
I decided not to push it.

'Cause that's
none of my concern.
Not at all.

It's a little icky
actually.

It's not like them
to just disappear.
Something could be wrong.

[ Phone Rings ]

Oh! Oh!
It's ringing.

Tell them we've got all the
evidence from the crime scene.
They'll get us out.

[ Ringing Continues ]

Angela.

- Angela?
- Yeah, hi.

And Hodgins. Help!

- Where are you?
- We're in Berryville, Maryland.

We're in jail.

Wh-Why are you in jail?

Well, it goes
a little like this.

Hodgins got pulled over
for driving like an old lady--

Yeah, and Angela
had an outstanding
bench warrant.

Oh, you have a warrant too,
Mr. Clean.

Well, where is the evidence
you collected yesterday? [ Hodgins ] In jail with us.

We're stuck here until the judge
shows up to set our bail.
Who knows when that's gonna be.

Well, we need that evidence.
I'll tell Cam
to come and get you.

Okay, a-a-a-also,
uh, will you tell Clark...

to throw a blanket
over my molting swallowtail
caterpillars at 4:30,

or they will die.

- Okay.
- [ Line Clicks ]

Yes.Yes.

Well, I'm afraid
we might have to check out
a little early there, pal.

I hope that's okay.

[ Booth ]
No, that sheriff
out in Podunk was a decent guy.

I'm sure Hodgins
gettin' arrested--
really good reason.

I've been thinkin'
about dead cats.

Mmm.That doesn't seem like
a good use of your time.

Witches-- the bad kind--
use animal sacrifices
in their spells,

and black cats are
particularly meaningful.

I told Sweets the developer
saw a dead cat on the victim's
dining room table...

before he went bald.

- What's the connection?
- He thinks that
she put a spell on him.

- You should talk
to their local coven.
- Wait. There's a local coven?

Uh-huh.
The Circle of Moonwick.

You said Wiccans were good,
whereas the victim was bad.

Yeah, they're probably competing
for the same eye of newt.

Wiccan ceremonies honor nature
and the sanctity of life
above all else.

They don't use
eye of newt.

Tonight is their
waning moon ceremony.

Now, I logged
into their Web site
using the name Lilith82.

I, uh, got directions.

Witches have Web sites?
Gotta love the Internet, huh?

- So, witch hunt tonight?
- All right.

You bring the candles.
I'll bring the broomstick.

This is the hardest bench
that I have ever
sat on in my life.

Sat on one?
[ Groans ] Slept on.

My shoulders are killing me.

Tell me about it.

- Come here.
- Why?

I'll give you a little rub,
work out the kinks.

Are you really that mad at me
that you don't want
a little massage?

Okay.

Only because I hurt.

[ Moaning ]
Ohh. Yeah.

Oh! Oh, yes!

Yes! Down. Down.

A little lower. Lower.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Oh, thank you, God.
[ Moans ]

"God" is a little formal.
"Hodgins" is fine.

Oh, yes.

Harder. Right there.
Right there. Ohh! Ohh!

Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah.

Looks to me like, uh, you two
are doing just fine in here.

- Oh, um--
- Cam!

Hey.

So, did you spring us?

These two aren't exactly
Bonnie and Clyde.
Can't you let them go?

- Not until the judge gets here.
- Well, I'll post bail,
pay the fine, whatever.

We need them
to solve this murder.

You have the evidence.
They can be reached here
anytime to assist.

Don't you think
you're being a little... rigid?

You are a law enforcement
professional, are you not,
ma'am?

Yes, but--

Then you know that the law
can't be twisted to our will,
or chaos will ensue.

I mean,
where does it end?

Today a seemingly
minor bench warrant.

Tomorrow, we overlook
another piece of paper,
and a murderer goes free.

Wow. You are, like,
the last upright man
in America.

Well, I wouldn't say that.

But I am a good sheriff,
and I love the law.

That's very impressive,
Sheriff.

Oh, my God.
He's getting to her.

I'm sure the judge'll
be coming soon.

Oh, no, no, no.
You're kidding, right?

Sorry. It was like arguing with
one of the founding fathers.

I've got the evidence.
We'll talk, okay?

[ Angela ]
Oh, my God. No!

Cam!No!

[ Angela ]
Cam!See you guys later.

Hey!

[ Brush Rustling ]

[ Brennan, Whispering ]
Could you not walk
so loudly?

Come on. Don't tell me
you're afraid of witches.

Wiccans. No.

But why waste an opportunity
to observe them when they don't
know they're being observed?

- You wanna spy on witches?
- Wiccans.

No, I want you to spy on
them while I study them
anthropologically.

[ People Chanting ]

Ground zero.

[ Chanting In Unknown Language ]

That's fascinating.

[ Chanting Continues ]

What are they doing
with that Blair Witch thingy?

[ Brennan ]
It's a miniature effigy.

[ Chanting Continues ]

♪♪ [ Drumming ]

Wow.

Okay, why is it
when things like this happen,

it always happens to people
you don't wanna see naked, huh?

[ Booth ]
Okay, so we have
Rowan and Eden, right?

Ember.Ember.
Exactly, Ember.

We'll give you the names
society assigned to us, but
not while in the sacred grove.

Oh, okay. Dancing naked is okay,
but Christian names
are forbidden. Got it.

We weren't doing anything wrong.
Why are you disrupting
a religious service?

You know what happened
to your friend Zephyra?

Is this by any chance
a totem representing her?

We were marking the end
of Zephyra's corporeal life.

Celebrating the reunification
of her spirit with the elements.

Why would you do that
unless she was a member
of your coven?

She was not one of us.

A bad witch.

Sadly, Zephyra
performed magic for profit.

She was known
to use human relics.

Such as the body
of a Salem witch?

I don't know
where she would get
something like that,

but that would be
an immensely powerful
relic, yes.

So she has other clients.
We're gonna have
to talk to them.

The dark arts are fragile,
Agent Booth.

Zephyra's clients
employed her to do evil.

Bad people
getting other bad people
to do bad things.

What's that?

Fragments of the hyoid
and throat cartilage.

Some of the smaller bones
were broken when
the house collapsed.

Very difficult to clean.
I may need to go back in
with the acetone.

Well, it's time to multi-task.

I have the evidence
Angela and Hodgins
gathered from the scene.

I thought your intention
was to bring back
Hodgins and Angela.

They have to wait for the judge,
and you can't bend the law
to help your friends.

So we're gonna
do this without them.

Well, they can coach us
and consult, but, yeah,
it's you and me.

So, you expect me
to deal with dirt?

Great.

Ooh, close.
But now I'm up 18 cents.

Oh, yeah. For now.

Nice!Oh, yes!

Wow.Only 17.

Do you realize how long
it's been since we've spent
this much time together?

Outside the lab,
I mean.

Yeah, I know. God.

I keep thinking about that--
that crappy cabin that
we stayed in in the mountains.

Do you remember that?

It was 30 degrees.
There was no heat.

Yeah.

Oh, man, this jail is
way better than that cabin.

It was
a good weekend though.Mm-hmm.

Keeping warm.

Yeah.

[ Door Opens ]

Your lab called.

This computer
may not be state-of-the-art,
but we got the Internets.

Sure. Let's throw
some coal in that thing
and fire it up.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Cheri Byrd was a dark witch,
perhaps even a Satanist.

The Wiccans really
seemed afraid of her.
What is all this?

I found the transcripts
of the Salem witch trials.

I thought maybe we could
identify the remains...

that Cheri Byrd dressed up
in the wedding dress.

"Prudence Sullivan, female,
48 years of age, small stature,

"with back bent
as though burdened...

by great weight of guilt."Guilt.

Old, short, hunched over.
Sounds like every other witch.

No, no, no.
That's a stereotype.
Forty-eight is old?

Well, it was back then.
I can't believe
you got all this stuff.

Okay, trust me.
A Salem witch doesn't
just show up in Maryland.

Her grave was robbed
for a reason.

I know my witches,
all right-- Sorry.

Just put it down.
Relax. Slow down.

Just--
I did so--Sit-- Shh!

so much reading.

- Nice cell.
- It's not much,
but we call it home.

[ Angela ]
Yeah, we're thinking
of redoing the kitchen.

Okay, it's amber.

It melts at 400 to 700
degrees Fahrenheit--

temperatures easily
reached in the fire.

- Is that a bug in there?
- Oh, yeah, baby.

Check out
those tibial bristles.

[ Chuckles ]

There's plenty of room
in here, Sheriff,
if you wanna join us.

Oh, no.
That's against regulations.

Okay, you can verify with
the entomology department,

but I'm fairly certain
we're looking at
Nedocosia naiba.

It's a fungus gnat.

Okay, does that help
with time of death?

No, and this gnat would've
had his last fungus about
100 million years ago...

in the Lower Cretaceous.

So if we remove the D.N.A.,
we could re-create dinosaurs,
right?

It was probably an amber pendant
from an ordinary piece
of jewelry.

What's with
the hair?

- What hair?
- Oh, yeah, she's right.

Check out
that speck at 3:00.

The amber probably
picked up a piece of hair
when it melted in the fire.

But our victim's hair
was gray and wavy.

Yeah, but this one
is dark.

If the root bulb's present,
it could be an indicator
the hair was forcibly removed.

So that could be
from the perp.

Sorry. Caught up
in the thrill
of the chase.

I'll run D.N.A.
So, how are you guys doing?

Uh, well, I mean, we'd--
we'd like to get out of here,
if that's what you mean.

I'm sure you will.
Thanks, guys.

[ Device Beeps ]The hair in the amber
gave us a hit.

CODIS says it belongs
to one Murray Huddler,

convicted of assault
in 2008.

Paroled last October.

Now, this may possibly
go towards a motive.

It certainly goes toward
creepy coincidence.

"Dumped Hubby
Decks Attorney."

So this man was
incarcerated for assaulting
his ex-wife's attorney?

Huddler's wife dumped him, hosed
him in a divorce, then married
the lawyer that represented her.

But look at this.
Anything look familiar to you?

She's wearing
this dress.

Murray Huddler.Yeah.

Do you know a woman
by the name of Cheri Byrd?No.

How about a witch
named Zephyra?

Oh."Oh." I'll take that
as a yes.

- I hired her.
- Hired her for?

To put a hex on my bitch
ex-wife, okay?

Is that illegal?Well, Zephyra's dead.

Uh, she was murdered.
House torched.

- You think I did it?
- Well, I don't know. Did you?

- I mean, it depends on
how much you paid for the hex.
- Two grand up front.

- Three if it took.
- Did it take?

It did not take.Oh!

You know what I'm thinking?
I'm thinking you
killed Zephyra,

and, in the struggle,
she yanked out
some of your hair.

No, I gave her my hair
for the spell.

That and my ex-wife's
wedding dress.

Right.
Found thatin your truck.

[ Exhales ]

That's not
what you think it is.
I-I went fishing on Friday.

Fishing? Okay, right.

But you do know if this blade
matches the stab marks
on Cheri Byrd's bones,

that could spell trouble
for you.

Huddler's fishing knife is thin,
very sharp on one edge...

and has a slight curve
at the tip.

The blade that made these cuts
is thicker,

evenly tapered
and sharp on both edges,
like a dagger.

Definitely not a match.

What's this?

Fragments of the hyoid and
throat cartilage, damaged by
a fire and crushed by a house.

The acetone
probably didn't help.

These bones certainly
resemble the hyoid
and surrounding cartilage.

-But not all of these are human.
-What?

Okay, is this whole witchy thing
about to get creepier?

[ Brennan ]
This looks like
part of a tiny joint.

I believe these bones
are the incomplete skeleton
of a small animal.

What do you think?Well, it's a little
outside my expertise.

But they look like
bat bones to me.
You missed that, Clark?

Well, Clark's error is
completely understandable,

given the condition
of these remains and the bizarre
nature of their circumstances.

Thank you, Dr. Brennan.

Yeah, but I made the call
on a piece-of-crap
cathode ray tube while in jail.

Oh, that's right.
You're a criminal.

Are we thinking
a woman had a bat
shoved down her throat?

Yes. That's exactly
what happened.

Well, thank you,
Dr. Hodgins.Uh--

[ Sighs ]

Another round?

Really?
You sure?

You're down 31 cents.

[ Hodgins ]
Oh! Yes! Thirty-two!

[ Chuckles ]

What?

Do you ever wonder
what happened to us...

on the day we broke up?

Yeah, every day.

I run through
that conversation
word for word.

Me too.

You said, "All you
had to do was trust me."

And you said,
"Hey, you're the one
who's leaving."

And then you said,
"You're the one
who isn't stopping me."

- And I left.
- Yeah.

Right.

Well, I wish I hadn't.

The biggest regret of my life
is I didn't stop you.

Yeah, what was up
with that?

I just panicked.

I-I lost faith that I could
sustain that kind of happiness.

Hmm.
You talked to Sweets?Kid's got the goods.

Yeah.
[ Chuckles ]

It was like we were
both playing chicken,
and then we-- we both swerved.

Yeah, what we should've done is
crashed right into each other.

At the speed of light.

The judge is here.

[ Clears Throat ]

The judge is a barber.

Keeps me grounded.

It's against the rules
for prisoners to fraternize
sexually while in custody.

Maybe give it a rest, huh, Gus?
Let's get you two outta here.

Bat bones? Myotis albescens.

Not indigenous
to the United States, but
the bones are available online.

Like everything else.
I'll look into it.

So, I think I've identified
our skeleton bride.

Look at that. Youidentified
human remains?

Dr. Brennan, you mentioned
that the woman...

was subjected
to a form of torture
known as "pressing," right?

Yes. That's how I surmised
we were dealing with the remains
of a Salem witch.

In fact,
only one Salem witch died
as a result of pressing.

Well, one female. There was
an 80-year-old man--

- You don't-- You don't care
about the old man, do you?
- Emily Quimby.

Died November, 1692.

Buried in Salem
in unconsecrated ground,
of course,

but her grave was robbed
six months ago.

You think the victim
dug up the old witch's bones
to increase her own power?

Absolutely.

Okay, this is interesting,
but not pertinent
to the case.

- Wait for it.
- Wait for it. Here it is.

Upon finding
Emily Quimby's grave,

I, uh, researched
her family tree.

And there's
a 16-generation remove,
but look--

- Mary Harden Trent.
- Direct descendant.

Why is that name
familiar?

Mary Harden Trent is a member
of the Circle of Moonwick Coven.

Her witch name is Ember.

Digging up great-grandma's
not the worst motive for murder
I've ever heard.

All right, what I'm doin' here
is releasing you two
on your own recognizance.

Oh, thank you!Yes. We will pay our fines
and make our court appearances.

I'm sure you will. Gus will
come after you if you don't
follow the letter of the law.

Let me notarize this stuff
and get you on your way. Thank you.

How long did he say
he'd be gone?

Mary Harden Trent.
That is your signature,
correct?

Yes, though I prefer
to go by Ember.

What do you say we step outside
your little magical forest,
stay on point, okay?

Our credit card records
show that you purchased
bat bones online. That true?

Bat bones
are an integral part
of my religion.

You shove those bat bones
down her throat before
or after you stabbed her?

No, no, I swear upon the goddess
that I'm incapable
of such violence.

- How tall are you?
- Uh, 5'2"?

She may be too small
to inflict the injuries
that killed our victim.

She may be small,
but she was filled with anger.

There. That is your great-
great-something-grandmother,
Emily Quimby.

- She was a witch too.
- Yes. And she didn't
deserve to die.

What, did you boast
to Zephyra that witchism
ran in your family?

And then she dug up
your ancestor's bones to use
in what you call dark rites.

What are you talking about?
How could anyone
do something like that?

I-I had no idea.

Dr. Brennan, I finally
got the results back
on the powder...

Dr. Hodgins collected
on the pathway around
the victim's house.

Oh, the circular pathway.
Yeah, yeah.

Usually the person
standing inside the circle
is safe from the dark forces.

But in this case, oddly,
everything inside the circle
was destroyed.

- Though the powder was des--
- Angela isn't here
for a computer re-creation,

so we have to make do.

Please hold one and four
in the proper position.

Sweets, it's bilateral.
Do the same.

Booth believes a witch
named Ember to be the killer,

but the victim was a large,
heavily muscled woman.

- But Ember
wasn't strong enough.
- I observed her in the woods.

She and the other Wiccans
were standing in a circle,

taking turns
with their ceremonial object.

These stab marks...

reflect a similar pattern.

Now, these injuries
are clustered.

Five groupings of three.

- So a total of 15 strikes.
- In the same pattern
as the dots on the chimney.

It's a pentagram.
It's an ancient Wiccan symbol
that stands for solidarity.

Some say sisterhood.

There are 15 women
in the Circle of Moonwick.

Ember alone wasn't the killer.
The entire coven took part.

No, they're Wiccans though.
They're white witches.
They stand for goodness.

What if they were
stoned out of their minds?

The powder on the path
is calledsecale cereale--
rye flour.

And it's infested with
the fungus Claviceps purpurea.

Formed in the ergot stage
of fungal development.

It's hallucinogenic--
the natural substance
from which LSD is derived.

Yes, it was used
for ceremonial purposes
centuries ago in Salem.

Some people think that
the exact same substance...

was responsible for the hysteria
surrounding the witch trials
in the first place.

Those naked ladies
were trippin'.

Add that to the rituals, and
they may have thought the demon
they were slaying was real.

Wiccans do not ingest any kind
of consciousness-altering drugs.

Not on purpose.

We believe you were
performing a ritual...

meant to keep Zephyra's evil
from spreading past the circle.

A ritual
using rye flour.

We use rye flour
in many ceremonies.

Yeah, and it has
LSD fungus in it.

That's what made you
afraid of Zephyra.

You thought that her
obsession with the black arts
could destroy you.

You also knew that she
had Ember's ancestor's bones
on her side.

I mean, you're good witches.

You're nice people.
You don't lie.

But when you make a mistake,
you wanna make
that mistake right. Right?

We were just trying to help.
We wanted Zephyra
to live in harmony.

She kept cursing at us
and casting spells.

We just wanted
to restore the balance.

[ Exhales ]

Dearly beloved,
we're gathered here today to
join in holy wedded matrimony...

Angela Pearly Gates Montenegro
and Jack Stanley Hodgins IV.

Um, there's, um--
There's one small problem.

Please don't change your mind.

Oh, no.
That's not it.

It's, um--

That's not my real name.

How bad could it be?

Yeah. Did you get mine?
It's Stanley.

Yeah. Uh, yeah.

Well, my dad is, um--
He's sort of unique.

And, well, he's Texan
and, uh, other things.

- So, do you mind if I just--
if I whisper it to you?
- That'll work.

Thank you.

We're here to wed
these two people.

Vows?

Vows.
[ Clears Throat ]

Angela,
or whatever your name is,

I'm your guy.

Stanley,[ Chuckles ]

we're gonna
live together...

and we're gonna
love together.

And we're gonna have
so much fun.

And a little pain.

And we're gonna
live a life...

that's just gonna make other
people die with jealousy
wishing they were us.

- You have rings?
- Yes. Yes.

Where did you get that?

- I've kept this in my wallet
since our first wedding.
- What?

No. We didn't
go through with it.

Where did you get that?I'll tell you later.

Oh-- Oh.Yeah.

You may exchange the rings.

By the power vested in me
in the state of Maryland, I now
pronounce you husband and wife.

You may--

[ Chuckling ]

- They were good people.
- Good people who butchered
another human being.

They were being attacked.
They weren't in
their right minds.

Sometimes, you know, people,
they just get carried away.Well, crazy people.

What is that?

This was given to me
by the witches.

Look, it's you--
little Bones.

No, it's not.[ Laughing ]
Yes, it is.

You see, the witch said
that if I burn this
in your presence,

then the wish I make for you
will come true.

[ Chuckles ]

You think I care,
but I don't.

It's just superstition,
and for superstition to work,

the person has to believe
that he or she is cursed
or under a spell.

Watch you don't
burn your fingers!

Want to know
what I wished for?

No. It doesn't matter.
Completely irrelevant.

I wish-- I wished that you
could find happiness.

I don't know
what that means.

Happiness-- love, laughter,

friendship, purpose
and a dance.

Oh. Well, then thank you.

- Yeah. [ Laughing ]
- Why is that funny?

'Cause you wouldn't have
thanked me if you didn't think
that part of it was true.

No, I was thanking you
for your kindness, not because
I believe in the outcome.

Ah, I detected relief.

No-- No, you didn't.

Relief that the mojo
was good and not bad.

Okay, now you're just
mixing up belief systems.

Really? Okay. You want me
to burn another one?No-- How many do you have?

I got a lot.

What's that mean?
