BONES EPISODE RECAP
"THE BOND IN THE BOOT"
airdate: September 24, 2009
written by: Michael Peterson
directed by: Alex Chapple
EPISODE SYNOPSIS
Brennan and Booth investigate the body of a man murdered for the undisclosed contents of a briefcase. Early evidence leads the team to suspect secret operatives are at work, and their theories are supported when the liquefied remains of a CIA agent are discovered in the trunk of a car. When Brennan and Booth interrogate the CIA’s Assistant Director of Intelligence, they are left unsure of his allegiance to the U.S. Meanwhile, Brennan’s best-selling book leads to financial success and serves as a point of contention with Booth, and Jeffersonian intern Wendell (guest star Michael Grant Terry) loses his scholarship, leaving the team to look for alternative funding to keep him around.

BEST BONES AND BOOTH MOMENTS

  • Brennan didn't want to insult Booth's manliness, so she charged him six dollars for the "Plumbing for Imbeciles" book.

  • At the end of the episode, Brennan told Booth that she felt close to him, despite their intellectual and financial differences. Then the water sprayed all over them. It was a sweet Bonesesque moment.

BONES AND BOOTH ROMANTIC DEVELOPMENTS
  • After Booth said to Brennan, "None of that stuff [intellectual and financial differences] really matters anyway", Brennan said, "When I look at it through your eyes, I believe it."
  • Brennan let Booth be the teacher. A relationship is about give and take. She is learning to give.

EPISODE TRIVIA

  • Mr. Dorritt was played by Hart Hanson's assistant Josh L.
  • Officer Kopek: It was leased using a corporate credit card: Universal Exports.
    This is an allusion to the James Bond series of films. Universal Exports is a fictional organization often used as a cover name for the company British Secret Service Agents (one of which is of course James Bond) work for.
  • The Bond theme was a payment of homage to Stephen Nathan's friend who wrote Casino Royale.

So I saw on the Fox website that you can e-mail them your guess as to what was on the flash drive found in the briefcase at the end of the episode. Just wondering...Has anyone done that? Or have any ideas?
