Bones (2005–2017): Season 1, Episode 18 - The Man with the Bone - full transcript
After a dead body is found near a 300 year old finger bone, Booth and Brennan investigate the site, which might be hiding pirate treasure.
WELCOME TO THE DUNGEON.
WHY DO THE F.B.I. ALWAYS
STICK THEIR MORGUES...
IN THE MOST DEPRESSING
BASEMENT THEY CAN FIND?
DON'T BE SUCH A SNOB, BONES. NOT EVERYONE
GETS TO PLAY IN A MULTIMILLION-DOLLAR LAB.
IT'S BECAUSE AS A SOCIETY WE
FEEL THE NEED TO HIDE DEATH AWAY,
AND PEOPLE WHO DEAL WITH
THE DEAD ARE VIEWED AS FREAKS.
I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S THE BASEMENT THING,
BUT THIS GUY, HARRY, HE'S A BIT TWISTED.
YOU PROBABLY THINK I GET SOME KIND OF RUSH
WHEN I WORK, THAT I'M SOMEHOW TITILLATED.
CHOICE OF WORDS,
BONES. CHOICE OF WORDS.
AGENT BOOTH.
HARRY TEPPER, MEET DR. TEMPERANCE
BRENNAN FROM THE JEFFERSONIAN.
- I'VE READ HER.
- HELLO.
SHE'S GOOD. READ YOUR NOVEL TOO.
THE HEROINE'S VERY AGGRESSIVE.
HARRY? YOU WANT TO...
OKAY, EVERYBODY, MEET TED MACY.
BODY WAS FOUND
IN A NATIONAL PARK.
LOCAL CORONER WROTE IT OFF AS
SOME KIND OF AN ACCIDENTAL DROWNING,
BUT WE HAVE TO INVESTIGATE
EVERY DEATH ON FEDERAL LAND.
DURING MY EXAMINATION, I
FOUND HE HAD A CRUSHED LARYNX.
- THAT DIDN'T SEEM ACCIDENTAL.
- THIS IS A CORPSE. WITH SKIN.
- SHE IS GOOD.
- WHY AM I HERE? YOU KNOW
I DON'T WORK WITH SKIN.
RELAX, BONES. I DIDN'T BRING
YOU HERE TO EXAMINE THE BODY.
I WANT YOU TO SEE WHAT THEY
FOUND IN HIS HAND. HARRY? BONE?
- WHAT IS THAT?
- IT'S A PHALANX.
FINGER BONE. FIGURED
SHE'D KNOW THAT.
YEAH, I'D FIGURE ANY COMPETENT MEDICAL
EXAMINER WOULD KNOW NOT TO COMPROMISE EVIDENCE.
- IS THIS LYSOL I.C.?
- WE USE IT
TO DECONTAMINATE REMAINS.
ARE YOU TRYING TO BREAK DOWN
THE PERIOSTEAL SURFACE OF THE BONE?
- WREAK HAVOC ON THE MARROW? DID YOU EVEN DILUTE THIS?
- BONES!
WHAT? YOU'VE REMOVED
PARTICULATES AND TRACE ELEMENTS...
THAT COULD POTENTIALLY
LEAD US TO HIS KILLER.
- IS THIS YOUR FIRST DAY
ON THE JOB?
- EIGHTEEN YEARS NEXT MONTH.
EIGHTEEN YEARS.
SHE'S INTENSE.
NATIVE AMERICAN.
BRITISH COLONIAL.
AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY.
HEY, WHAT ARE WE PLAYING?
DR. BRENNAN, THE DESTROYER
OF EVIDENCE IS HERE.
OKAY, I ASSUME THAT'S A
JOKE SO NOBODY GETS HURT.
DID HARRY REALLY
MESS UP THAT BONE?
HE DISSOLVED ANY TRACES OF
INGRAINED PARTICULATES ON THE SURFACE.
- BUT WE ARE STILL ABLE TO SAVE
SOME VALUABLE ATTRIBUTES.
- LIKE WHAT?
ALTERNATING SCLEROTIC AND POROTIC
AREAS ON SUBPERIOSTEAL SURFACE...
DEMONSTRATES THAT WHOEVER THIS
WAS SUFFERED FROM TERTIARY SYPHILIS.
TERTIARY SYPHILIS.
WOW, THAT'S THE WORST!
IT WAS A COMMON AILMENT
IN THE 17th CENTURY.
- WHICH IS WHERE
THE BONE DATES FROM.
- SAY WHAT?
WE RAN A RADIOCARBON DATING
TEST. THE FINGER'S OVER 300 YEARS OLD.
- A UNIQUE FIND FOR THE AREA.
- I'M GONNA CHANGE
TO FRENCH TRAPPER.
- YOU CAN'T CHANGE YOURS.
- BOOTH, WHERE DID THEY FIND
THE VICTIM?
THEY SHIPPED HIM OVER FROM SOME RESORT
TOWN NEXT TO A FEDERAL SEASIDE PRESERVE.
- ASSATEAGUE ISLAND.
- THAT'S WHERE THE MONEY PIT IS.
- MONEY PIT?
- LEGEND IS...
ASSATEAGUE ISLAND IS WHERE
BLACKBEARD BURIED HIS TREASURE.
FOR 300 YEARS, PEOPLE
HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND IT.
THEY'VE DUG IT OUT TO SOMETHING LIKE
150 FEET, BUT THEY'VE FOUND NOTHING.
EVERY TIME THEY COME CLOSE, THEY TRIGGER
A BAFFLE THAT FLOODS THE PIT WITH SEAWATER.
BOOBY TRAPS. COOL.
THE BODY WAS
FOUND AT A DIG SITE.
THIS IS THE FIRST
CONCRETE EVIDENCE...
THAT THE TREASURE
IS MORE THAN A LEGEND.
I'LL BET THIS IS FROM ONE OF THE
MEN WHO BURIED THE TREASURE.
- PURE CONJECTURE.
- PIRATE.
- PIRATE?
- PIRATE?
- IT'S A PIRATE.
- YOU CAN'T CHANGE YOURS.
- SO THE VICTIM FINDS EVIDENCE
THAT THE TREASURE EXISTS.
SOMEBODY ELSE WANTS IT ALL FOR THEMSELVES.
CERTAINLY THAT'S A GOOD MOTIVE FOR MURDER.
WE GOTTA SEE WHAT ELSE WE
CAN FIND. I'LL BE GLAD TO HELP.
- THAT'S OKAY. I CAN HANDLE IT.
- COME ON, MAN. SHARE THE WEALTH.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR
ANSWERS, JACK, NOT TREASURE.
- DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT
TREASURE EXISTS DOWN THERE?
- WHAT DO YOU THINK?
WHY ARE YOU GUYS SMILING?
PIRATES! PIRATES!
IT'S A GUY THING, SWEETIE.
MM-HMM. YEAH.
SO THE DEAD GUY,
MACY, RAN THE DIG.
WITH HIS PARTNER, HARDEWICKE. HE WAS
HIRED BY ANYONE WITH MONEY TO BURN.
WHA... PEOPLE WOULD DO THAT?
SANE PEOPLE? LOOK FOR TREASURE?
WELL, ISN'T THAT WHAT
ARCHAEOLOGISTS DO?
ARCHAEOLOGISTS ARE SCIENTISTS WHO USE
EVIDENCE ON WHICH TO BASE THEIR EXPLORATIONS,
NOT SOME PIRATE MOVIE
THEY SAW WHEN THEY WERE 10.
YEAH, WELL, THAT 300-YEAR-OLD
BONE THAT WE JUST FOUND...
SORT OF, UH, CHANGES THINGS
NOW, DOESN'T IT THERE, MATEY?
WHAT'S GOIN' ON OVER
THERE? IT'S A CRIME SCENE.
I TRIED TO STOP HIM, BUT THAT'S BRANSON ROSE
BACK THERE. THE MAYOR TOLD ME TO LET HIM IN.
BRANSON ROSE IS
FUNDING THIS DIG?
HAS BEEN FOR TWO YEARS,
BUT I HEARD HE WAS PULLING OUT.
ALL RIGHT. THANKS. I'LL
TAKE IT FROM HERE. SURE.
WHO'S BRANSON ROSE? THE
BILLIONAIRE ADVENTURER.
YOU KNOW, HE MADE HIS FORTUNE
MAKING AIRCRAFT FOR THE MILITARY.
OWNS ABOUT HALF THE WORLD.
HE'S THE GUY WHO HAS THAT REALITY
SHOW THAT GOES ALL OVER THE WORLD AND...
STILL NO TV? WHY
DO I EVEN BOTHER?
YOU CAN'T PULL OUT NOW. SO YOU CAN SUE,
BUT I DON'T THINK YOU HAVE THE RESOURCES.
MR. ROSE, WE JUST BROKE 200
FEET. NOW, IF YOU PULL OUT NOW...
I'VE BEEN HEARING
THAT FOR TWO YEARS.
- LOAD MY GEAR IN THE TRUCK.
- UH, EXCUSE ME?
MR. ROSE, MACY...
HE KNEW IT. HE FELT IT.
- EXCUSE ME!
- TWO YEARS. TWO MILLION DOLLARS.
THERE'S NOTHING DOWN THERE,
GILES. MACY DIED FOR NOTHING.
F.B.I. YOU'RE ALL UNDER ARREST!
BONES, YOU DON'T GET TO SAY
THAT. I'M THE ONE WITH THE BADGE.
- THE F.B.I.'S INVOLVED NOW?
- YEAH. YOU KNOW, MURDER
ON FEDERAL LAND.
- WE LIKE TO POKE AROUND
A LITTLE.
- MURDER?
YEAH. MURDER. YOU
SAID IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.
OH, MY GOD.
HE FOUND SOMETHING.
PUT MY STUFF BACK NOW!
WHAT DID MACY FIND THAT
WOULD BE WORTH KILLING HIM FOR?
IN 1832, A TEAM OF SIX MEN
LOOKING FOR THE TREASURE...
WERE KILLED WHEN A SHAFT
THEY WERE DIGGING COLLAPSED.
BLACKBEARD'S CURSE, MAN.
A CURSE? WE'RE SCIENTISTS.
LOOK AT THIS. 1902.
TWO MEN DISAPPEARED WHILE
DIGGING. NEVER FOUND THEIR BODIES.
OH, THAT'S VERY "CURSEY."
SO YOU BELIEVE IN PIRATES?
PIRATES AREN'T SANTA,
ZACK. THEY DID EXIST.
THEY DID HAVE TREASURES,
AND THEY DID BURY IT.
YOU KNOW, I HAD AN EYE
PATCH WHEN I WAS SIX.
WHO DIDN'T, MY
FRIEND? WHO DIDN'T?
IT'S NOT NECESSARY
TO LEAD ME LIKE A CHILD.
I'D RATHER NOT HAVE ANY
MORE EVIDENCE COMPROMISED.
YOU'RE SQUEEZING
MY ARM VERY TIGHTLY.
SORRY. NO, NO. IT'S OKAY.
YOU CAN GIVE IT TO
DR. HODGINS. WHAT IS THIS?
SOIL AND WATER COLLECTED FROM
TED MACY'S THROAT AND LUNGS.
HE WAS FOUND FLOATING IN HIS
DRY SUIT AT THE TOP OF THE SHAFT.
YOU KNOW WHAT WE NEED YOU TO
DO? YOUR DIRT THING. YOU KNOW?
MATCH THE SLIME TO THE CRIME.
MAKE SURE THAT'S WHERE HE WAS KILLED.
I'D LIKE TO LOOK AT X-RAYS
OF THE VICTIM'S SKELETON.
BOSSY. DO NOT GO THERE.
IN THE INTEREST OF BEING
THOROUGH, I NEED TO DETERMINE...
IF HE DIED AT THE TOP OR DIED
AT THE BOTTOM AND FLOATED UP.
I NEED SILT ABSTRACTS
FROM BOTH LEVELS.
- FINE. WE'LL GET THOSE FOR YOU.
- NO, NO. NO.
THE SOIL LOOKS LIKE
AN ODD MIXTURE OF CLAY,
PLAGIOCLASE FELDSPAR, PYROXENE.
I REALLY WOULDN'T TRUST ANYONE
ELSE TO HARVEST THE SAMPLES PROPERLY.
YOU JUST WANT TO
LOOK FOR TREASURE.
I AM A SERIOUS SCIENTIST...
MERELY TRYING TO DO MY
JOB AS WELL AS POSSIBLE.
THAT SHAFT IS OVER 200
FEET DEEP, YOU KNOW.
REQUIRES AN EXPERIENCED DIVER.
I AM A CERTIFIED CAVE DIVER, WHICH
MEANS I CAN GO DEEPER THAN 200 FEET.
I DOVE MAYAN BLUE,
DOS OJOS, TORTUGA.
EVER DIVE NAHARON? ONCE.
- I NAMED NAHARON.
- WELL, THEN HOW CAN YOU
SAY NO TO ME?
OKAY. BUT JUST TO
COLLECT SOIL SAMPLES.
OF COURSE.
YOU DIVE TOO? YEAH.
I HAVE THE TIME
BECAUSE I DON'T OWN A TV.
YOU WEAR A RUBBER SUIT THEN?
UH...
ACCIDENTS HAPPEN, YOU KNOW?
MACY AND I WERE
PREPARED FOR THAT.
BUT MURDER! MURDER. WOW.
ANYTHING I CAN DO TO HELP?
WE'LL TALK ABOUT
THAT A LITTLE LATER.
RIGHT NOW I WANT TO GET
HODGINS DOWN THAT SHAFT.
DANE McGINNIS. HE'S...
HE'S THE BEST I KNOW.
HE'S WORKED FOR US
FOR YEARS. AGENT BOOTH!
- ARE YOU AGENT BOOTH?
- SORRY. YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO
STAY BEHIND THE YELLOW TAPE.
I'M MAYOR NEY. YOUR MEN KEEP PUSHING
OUR TOURISTS FURTHER AND FURTHER BACK.
MAYOR? WOW. I HOPE YOU DIDN'T
LOOK LIKE THAT WHEN THEY ELECTED YOU.
BLACKBEARD'S TREASURE IS WHAT KEEPS
THE ECONOMY ON THIS ISLAND RUNNING.
THE MAYOR HERE GETS THAT...
SOMETIMES TOO INTENSELY.
HEY, I'M NOT ASHAMED. I'VE INCREASED
TOURISM 63% SINCE I TOOK OFFICE,
AND I CAN BOOST IT A BIT MORE IF THE
TOURISTS COULD GET A CLOSER LOOK.
- IT'S A MURDER SCENE,
NOT A SHOW.
- BLACKBEARD'S CURSE.
MACY WOULD'VE WANTED TO GIVE A
LITTLE BACK TO THE TOWN THAT HE LOVED.
FRANK, THE POLICE ARE
TELLING THEM NO PICTURES.
NOW, WHO IS THIS,
HUH? THE PIRATE QUEEN?
THAT'S RIGHT. MY WIFE,
KATIE. THAT'S RIGHT. GREAT.
LISTEN, YOU JUST TELL THE TOURISTS
THAT THE BAD VIEW IS PART OF THE CURSE.
WILL YOU PLEASE ESCORT THE PIRATE AND HIS
WENCH BEHIND THE YELLOW TAPE? THANK YOU.
FRANK... I'M THE MAYOR!
SO DANE... HE'S AN
EXPERIENCED GUY?
I'VE WORKED WITH HUNDREDS.
HE'S THE BEST. ALL RIGHT.
I HOPE THIS GUY KNOWS WHAT
HE'S DOING. IT'S TIGHT DOWN THERE.
AVAST, YE LUBBERS!
DANE, LET'S GET HIM READY.
YOU THINK IT'S A PIRATE?
IT'S A 300-YEAR-OLD FINGER
FROM THE LEFT HAND OF A MALE.
THAT'S ALL I'M SURE OF SO
FAR. WORTH KILLING FOR?
I WORKED A CASE ONCE WHERE A WOMAN
WAS KILLED, DISMEMBERED AND BURNED...
BECAUSE HER FRIEND THOUGHT SHE'D
TAKEN HER FAVORITE PAIR OF SLIPPERS.
CHEERY. MAYBE THEY'RE RIGHT.
MAYBE THIS MAN DIED
BURYING THE TREASURE.
IRONIC. STEALING ALL THAT
AND NEVER ENJOYING THE SPOILS.
SO YOU BELIEVE THERE'S TREASURE?
I BELIEVE THERE'S GREED.
THAT'S THE REAL CURSE.
ALL RIGHT. SAFETY
LINE, AIR HOSE.
EITHER ONE BREAKS,
YOU AIN'T COMING BACK UP.
YOU GOTTA WORK ON YOUR
BEDSIDE MANNER, DUDE.
I DON'T WANNA BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR SOME WEEKENDER...
WHO BUYS IT DOWN THERE BECAUSE
HE THINKS HE'S BETTER THAN HE IS.
YOU WANNA GO DOWN, DON'T YOU?
IT'S MY SHAFT, OKAY? I'VE
BEEN WORKING IT 10 YEARS.
THE FEDS, THEY SAY
IT'S A CRIME SCENE.
- SO I CAN'T HELP.
- YOU'RE HELPING ME.
WHY DOES HE NEED THE AIR LINE?
WHY CAN'T HE JUST USE THE TANK?
BECAUSE ABOUT A HUNDRED FOOT
DOWN, THAT SHAFT GETS A LITTLE COZY.
YOU AIN'T AFRAID OF A TIGHT
SQUEEZE, ARE YOU, DOC?
GLOVES.
JUST TAKE IT SLOW, OKAY? LOT OF STUFF
TO CATCH YOUR HOSE ON ON THE WAY DOWN.
YEAH. I SAW THE
PICTURES ROSE TOOK.
ROSE. HE NEVER WENT AS FAR
AS YOU'RE GOING. NO ONE HAS.
MAYBE HE SHOULDN'T TRY, YOU KNOW?
PEOPLE HAVE DIED DOWN THERE. NOT JUST MACY.
I KNOW. MY BROTHER
WAS ONE OF THEM.
I'M GOING ALL THE
WAY DOWN TO 200 FEET.
WE JUST HIT 200 LAST WEEK.
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO TELL ME.
- WELL, I'M READY.
- OKAY.
YOUR FRIEND BETTER BE
AS GOOD AS HE SAYS HE IS.
YOU JUST TAKE CARE
OF HIM, ALL RIGHT?
- HODGINS, YOU READ ME?
- I HEAR YOU LOUD AND CLEAR.
THERE'S SOME JAGGED
EDGES. KEEP CLEAR OF THEM.
WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
HODGINS. IT'S WARM.
PASSING THE FIRST FLOOD TRAP.
WE LOST OUR FIRST MAN THERE.
THERE'S WOOD HERE
BELOW THE LIMESTONE.
- DOES HE MAKE ANY SENSE TO YOU?
- YEAH. HE'S PASSING THE SITE
OF THE FIRST PIT COLLAPSE.
IT'S TIGHT DOWN HERE.
THERE'S A LOT OF DEBRIS.
I'M NOT SURE IF I CAN
SQUEEZE THROUGH.
HEY, THIS GUY
SWIMS LIKE A SQUID.
- HE SWIMS LIKE A SQUINT.
- WHAT?
- NEVER MIND.
- OKAY. I'M CLEAR NOW.
GOOD PICTURE TOO. WE CAN'T
GET RESOLUTION LIKE THAT.
WELL, HE'S A GEEK. YOU EVER
FIND ANYTHING DOWN HERE?
- NOT YET.
- TEN YEARS OF FINDING NOTHING,
AND YOU KEEP TRYING?
- IT'S ALL ABOUT
THE SEARCH, MAN.
- HE'S AT 170 FEET.
180.
NINETY. NO ONE'S
EVER BEEN THIS DEEP.
HE'S AT 200.
TOUCHDOWN. I AM ON THE BOTTOM.
VISIBILITY IS SURPRISINGLY GOOD.
WAIT A MINUTE. THERE'S...
THERE'S SOMETHING HERE.
- HOLY...
- WHAT IS THAT?
OH, MY... IS THAT...
- OH, MY GOD!
- IT'S THERE!
CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?
I'M AMAZED YOU FOUND
A COMPLETE SKELETON.
C-14 DATING
MATCHES AT 300 YEARS.
SUBJECT IS MALE, EARLY 20's,
APPROXIMATELY 5'6".
LEGS ARE BOWED, RESULT OF VISIBLE
CALCIUM AND PHOSPHATE DEFICIENCY.
HE HAD RICKETS AS A CHILD, BUT HIS UPPER
BODY IS EXTRAORDINARILY WELL DEVELOPED.
EPIPHYSEAL SEPARATION
IN THE LONG BONES.
SUNKEN STERNUM FORMS SCORBUTIC
ROSARY AT COSTOCHONDRAL MARGIN.
HE SUFFERED FROM SCURVY
AS WELL AS TERTIARY SYPHILIS.
WHAT'S WITH THE "TERTIARY"?
ISN'T PLAIN SYPHILIS BAD ENOUGH?
SCURVY, SYPHILIS... PIRATE.
THERE IS ANTHROPOLOGICAL
EVIDENCE WHICH SUPPORTS THE CLAIM...
THAT BLACKBEARD EXECUTED HIS BURIAL
CREWS AFTER THEY WERE DONE DIGGING.
OKAY. LET'S...
SAY IT'S A PIRATE.
- YES!
- THIS WOULD BE
AN EXTRAORDINARY FIND.
AND WOULD OPEN UP THE
REALITY OF THE TREASURE.
IT WOULD BE STUPID TO
DISMISS ANYTHING AT THIS POINT,
BUT WE NEED TO DISCOVER WHY THE OSSEIN ISN'T
FULLY DECOMPOSED FROM BEING WATERLOGGED.
ABOUT 50 FEET DOWN THE SHAFT IS A LAYER OF
BLUE PUTTY CONSISTING OF SILICONE AND CLAY.
IT COULD BE USED TO
FORM A WATERTIGHT SEAL.
THAT WOULD EXPLAIN THE
CONDITION OF THE BONES.
I TOOK SAMPLES OF THE SAME
BLUE CLAY BETWEEN 200 AND 207 FEET.
SOMETHING IS BURIED DOWN THERE.
AND THESE BONES
WERE LYING ON TOP OF IT.
MACY WAS KILLED BECAUSE
OF SOMETHING THAT HE FOUND.
THE SILT CONFIRMS HE WAS
KILLED AT THE TOP OF THE SHAFT.
AFTER HE SWAM BACK
UP WITH THE TREASURE.
SPECIAL AGENT BOOTH.
I HATE TO INTERRUPT YOUR
INVESTIGATION, AGENT BOOTH,
BUT THERE'S AN ANGRY BILLIONAIRE
IN MY OFFICE, AND HE WON'T GO AWAY.
IT'S SIMPLE. YOU HAVE
SOMETHING THAT BELONGS TO ME,
AND I'M NOT LEAVING
HERE WITHOUT IT.
A DAY AGO, YOU COULDN'T WAIT TO LEAVE,
PULL OUT OF THE ISLAND, CUT YOUR LOSSES.
YOU REMEMBER THAT? A
LOT CAN CHANGE IN A DAY.
YEAH. FOR TED
MACY, A LOT CHANGED.
LOOK, I'M SORRY ABOUT TED. BUT I'LL BE
DAMNED IF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT...
SWOOPS IN HERE AT THE 11th HOUR AND STEALS
WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIND FOR TWO YEARS.
I FAIL TO SEE WHAT THIS HAS
TO DO WITH THE JEFFERSONIAN.
THOSE BONES BELONG TO ME.
THEY WERE UNCOVERED AT MY SITE.
I WAS GRANTED A PERMIT TO DIG
THERE AND KEEP WHAT WAS FOUND.
MY ATTORNEYS ASSURED ME YOU
HAVE NO CLAIM TO THOSE BONES.
SURE. I MEAN, YOUR ATTORNEY WANTS
TO GO TO COURT FOR THE NEXT 20 YEARS...
AND BUY HIMSELF A NICE
VACATION HOME IN TUSCANY.
BUT THE FACT IS WHEN TED MACY WAS MURDERED,
YOUR PROPERTY BECAME OUR EVIDENCE.
AND IT'S GOING TO STAY THAT
WAY UNTIL WE FIND THE KILLER.
I WAS HOPING TO
SETTLE THIS AMICABLY.
REALLY? BECAUSE, YOU KNOW,
WE HAVEN'T SEEN THAT YET.
AH.
THIS IS GOING TO BE A HEADACHE. HE
HAS SOME VERY IMPORTANT FRIENDS.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHY HE'S SO UPSET.
IT'S NOT LIKE HE NEEDS THE MONEY.
BUT HE HAS PARTNERS THAT DO.
MACY AND HARDEWICKE WERE
GONNA SPLIT WHAT THEY FOUND.
- BUT MACY IS DEAD.
- EXACTLY.
LEAVING HARDEWICKE WITH
A BIGGER PIECE OF THE PIE.
THIS IS FROM OUR VERY
FIRST DIG TOGETHER.
WE FOUND THIS... THIS CHEST
BURIED UNDER A FLOOD DRAIN...
UP IN SMITH'S COVE
IN NEW ENGLAND.
THERE WAS NO TREASURE, BUT JUST TO UNEARTH
SOMETHING THAT OLD, HAD THAT MUCH HISTORY...
WE WERE HOOKED.
NEVER LOOKED BACK.
I GLANCED THROUGH
YOUR COMPANY HISTORY.
I MEAN, BUSINESS WAS PRETTY SLOW SINCE
YOU DIDN'T FIND ANY TREASURE OUT HERE.
YOU WERE GETTING FEWER AND FEWER
CLIENTS. YEAH, IT'S BEEN DIFFICULT.
BRANSON ROSE WAS
ALMOST YOUR LAST CHANCE.
THERE'S ALWAYS SOMEBODY WHO
WANTS TO LOOK FOR TREASURE.
REALLY? YEAH.
YOU KNOW, IF BRANSON ROSE, HE
PULLS OUT, YOU'D GET A LOT OF PUBLICITY.
YOU CAN END UP... SINKING YOUR
BUSINESS. BUT MACY FOUND SOMETHING.
AND WE'RE GONNA SHARE THE FIND
WITH ROSE... 50% FOR HIM, 50 FOR US.
EXACTLY. OH, I SEE.
MORE FOR ME IF MACY'S
OUT OF THE PICTURE, RIGHT?
YOU'RE FORGETTING ONE THING.
MACY WAS LIKE FAMILY TO ME.
REALLY? LOOK AT THIS. SEE THAT?
I GOT THAT PULLING MACY
OUT OF A SINKHOLE BACK IN '93.
AND HE'S GOT PLENTY OF SCARS
ON HIM BECAUSE OF ME TOO.
HOW'D YOU GET ALL THOSE BRUISES
AROUND YOUR SCAR THERE, HUH?
THE MAYOR.
HOW'S THE MAYOR
FIGURE INTO ALL THIS?
HIS WIFE. YOU SAW HER, RIGHT?
MACY WAS A BIT OF A HOUND.
SLEEPING WITH THE PIRATE QUEEN?
THE MAYOR GOT SUSPICIOUS.
HE CAME AROUND LAST WEEK.
AND I ENDED UP TAKING THE HEAT FOR
MACY, BECAUSE MACY'S LIKE MY BROTHER.
AND I'LL TELL YOU, THAT SCRAWNY
LITTLE PIRATE, HE CAN KICK TOO.
I'M LUCKY HE DIDN'T HAVE TIME
TO LOAD THAT FLINTLOCK. CHARLIE!
NO! PUT THAT DOWN! LEAVE IT
THERE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
ZACK? ZACK? THE BONES! WHAT
DID YOU DO WITH THE BONES?
NOTHING, DR. BRENNAN. I LEFT THEM
ON THE TABLE JUST LIKE YOU ASKED.
WHERE THE HELL ARE MY BONES?
BONES DON'T JUST DISAPPEAR. I
THOUGHT THIS WAS A SECURE FACILITY.
YOU ASSURED ME THIS
WAS A SECURE FACILITY.
I COULD BE WORKING AT
STANFORD, YOU KNOW?
THIS NEVER WOULD'VE
HAPPENED AT STANFORD.
WE SPEND 3/4 OF A MILLION ANNUALLY ON
SECURITY. OBVIOUSLY THAT'S NOT ENOUGH.
I WANT MY BONES! DID
YOU FIND MY BONES?
OOH, MAYBE YOU JUST WANT
TO, YOU KNOW, CHILL A LITTLE?
- CHILL?
- YEAH. TAKE A PILL?
LISTEN, DUDE, MY LAB WAS
VIOLATED, MY BONES WERE STOLEN,
SO I THINK I'LL REMAIN WARM
FOR A LITTLE WHILE LONGER.
HONEY, MAYBE YOU SHOULD
FOCUS ON YOUR BREATHING.
- BREATHING.
- COUNT TO 10.
- TEN.
- HAVE A SHOT OF JACK.
SHOT OF JACK. WE'RE DOING
EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN, OKAY?
I PROMISE YOU WE'RE
GONNA FIND YOUR BONES,
BUT YOU HAVE TO
ALLOW US TO DO OUR JOB.
I GUESS I WASN'T HELPING
ALL THAT MUCH, WAS I?
I... I'M...
SORRY. IT'S COOL.
HEY, LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE.
THIS WHOLE THEFT THING
COULD BE GOOD FOR US, RIGHT?
WHOEVER TOOK THE BONES OBVIOUSLY
HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE MURDER.
I'VE ORDERED ON-DUTY PERSONNEL TO GIVE A
MINUTE-BY-MINUTE ACCOUNT OF THEIR ROUNDS.
- I WANT ACCOUNT OF ALL
OFF-DUTY PERSONNEL AS WELL.
- THEY DIDN'T GET EVERYTHING.
- I THOUGHT ALL THE BONES
WERE ON THE TABLE.
- ALL THE NEW ONES.
I WAS EXAMINING THE ORIGINAL FINGER BONE
WE FOUND FOR SCURVY, SO IT WAS IN MY ROOM.
THERE IS SOMETHING THEY DON'T
WANT US TO FIND ON THIS BONE.
EVERYONE KNEW MACY.
HELPED FRANK GET ELECTED.
SO YOU WOULD CATEGORIZE YOUR
RELATIONSHIP AS JUST FRIENDS?
YEAH. FRIENDS. IT'S A SMALL
TOWN. WE'RE ALL FRIENDS.
WELL, WHOEVER KILLED
MACY WASN'T TOO FRIENDLY.
HE WOULDN'T HURT A SOUL, MACY.
HE WAS A SWEET GUY.
THE WAY YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT HIM, IT
SEEMS LIKE YOU WERE MORE THAN JUST FRIENDS.
HARDEWICKE TOLD YOU,
RIGHT? LIKE HE'S SUCH A SAINT.
HOW INVOLVED WERE
THE TWO OF YOU?
IT WAS JUST ONE OF
THOSE THINGS, YOU KNOW?
I WASN'T GONNA LEAVE
FRANK OR ANYTHING.
I WANTED TO SEE WHAT IT WAS
LIKE TO BE WITH A REAL ADVENTURER,
RATHER THAN A GUY
WHO DRESSES UP LIKE ONE.
FRANK WENT AFTER HARDEWICKE
WHEN HE THOUGHT IT WAS HIM.
YOU THINK FRANK KILLED
HIM? YOU SAW FRANK.
WELL, YEAH. YOU KNOW,
HE'S... HE'S A LITTLE UNSTABLE.
AND HE FINDS OUT SOMEBODY
MADE A FOOL OF HIM TWICE, I...
IT'S HARDEWICKE AND THE RICH
GUY YOU SHOULD BE LOOKING AT.
MACY SAID THEY WERE ALL FIGHTING
OVER THE MONEY THEY WERE SPENDING.
SAID HARDEWICKE DIDN'T APPRECIATE ALL THE
WORK HE DID, WANTED TO BREAK UP THE COMPANY.
WELL, WE'RE LOOKING
INTO EVERYONE. THANKS.
SURE. BUT ALL THIS
COMING UP AGAIN...
JUST TRY NOT TO RUIN MY
MARRIAGE, OKAY? I MADE A MISTAKE.
BUT I LOVE THAT STUPID PIRATE,
AND I DON'T WANT TO LOSE HIM.
WELL, THANKS FOR TALKING
TO ME. I'LL... I'LL BE IN TOUCH.
THE PERIOSTEAL
SURFACE ON THE PHALANX...
DOESN'T HAVE ANY INGRAINED
PARTICULATES THAT I CAN RECOVER.
THE SOLUTION THAT THE M.E. USED
PROBABLY DISSOLVED ANYTHING...
THAT WAS LODGED IN ANY
SURFACE IRREGULARITIES.
WHO WOULD CLEAN A BONE BEFORE EXTRACTING
ALL AVAILABLE INFORMATION FROM IT?
NOT EVERYONE IS A THOROUGH
AS WE ARE, ZACK. SO TRUE. SO TRUE.
I WONDER IF THERE
WAS GOLD DUST ON IT.
PERHAPS YOU SHOULD START WORKING
WITH A PARROT ON YOUR SHOULDER.
YOU'RE NOT CURIOUS?
YES. ABOUT THE FACTS.
THERE'S A SMALL HOLE...
ALONG THE DISTAL ARTICULAR
FACET OF THE FINGER.
IT COULD BE FORAMEN, BUT IT
COULD BE SOMETHING ELSE, MAN-MADE.
A WEAPON? MAYBE.
SEE IF YOU CAN FIND
ANY POSSIBLE MATCHES.
I WONDER IF THERE ARE ANY
OTHER SIMILAR MARKS ON MACY.
I'LL FIND OUT. AND DON'T LET
THAT BONE OUT OF YOUR SIGHT.
DR. BRENNAN THOUGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE
OVERLOOKED A WEAPON OF SOME KIND.
HE WASN'T KILLED BY ANY WEAPON.
HE WAS STRANGLED.
THE LARYNX IS
CRUSHED. IT'S PLAIN.
AND C-2 THROUGH
C-4 ARE FRACTURED.
THAT WOULDN'T HAVE OCCURRED
IF HE WERE MERELY STRANGLED.
IF THE VICTIM WAS SHAKEN
WHILE BEING STRANGLED...
THE FRACTURES ARE ALL LEFT TO RIGHT,
APPROXIMATELY 45-DEGREE ANGLES ON EACH BONE.
THAT MEANS THE HEAD WAS
JERKED TO THE LEFT AND UP,
MAKING SURE THAT THE
SPINAL CORD WOULD TEAR.
THE LARYNX WAS CRUSHED
WHEN HIS NECK WAS BROKEN.
I'M ALWAYS OPEN TO
BEING CORRECTED.
WHY DO YOU THINK THERE
MIGHT HAVE BEEN A WEAPON?
I SAW A SMALL PERFORATION IN THE FINGER
BONE WHICH YOU DECIDED TO PUT IN SOLVENT.
DID YOU DAMAGE THE BONE?
POKE IT? STICK IT IN SOME WAY?
STILL ANGRY. OKAY. NO. I HANDLED
IT ACCORDING TO PROTOCOL...
RUBBER GLOVES,
RIGHT INTO THE SOLVENT.
SOMETHING DAMAGED THAT BONE,
AND IT DIDN'T HAPPEN 300 YEARS...
WAIT A MINUTE.
I HAVE ALTERNATIVES THAT
COULD'VE CAUSED THE HOLE.
THIS IS A DISPOSABLE
ACUPUNCTURE NEEDLE.
OH, COME ON. HE WAS
HEALED TO DEATH?
THIS IS A FILAMENT USED
FOR AN ANGIOPLASTY.
HAND ME THE WIRE.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
DIMINISHED FLUORESCENCE.
THAT ONLY HAPPENS IF THE BONES
HAVE BEEN CLEANED AND TREATED.
THESE BONES DIDN'T
START OUT IN THE SHAFT.
THEY WERE PLACED THERE. WHAT?
WHO'S GOT 300-YEAR-OLD BONES?
I ASSURE YOU EVERYTHING
HERE IS AUTHENTIC, DR. BRENNAN.
I CURATED THIS EXHIBIT FOR
THE JEFFERSONIAN MYSELF.
COULD YOU PLEASE OPEN THE CASE?
THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL
SPECIMEN... FOUND IN JAMAICA.
WE BELIEVE HE SAILED
WITH HENRY MORGAN.
- HE'S NEVER BEEN
ON A BOAT IN HIS LIFE.
- THAT'S ABSURD.
OH, MY GOD. THESE
BONES ARE ARTIFICIAL.
IT'S ACRYLIC, NOT BONE.
YOU CAN SEE ON THE REAL BONE THE
HOLE WHERE THE WIRE WAS THREADED...
WHEN THE BONES WERE
ASSEMBLED FOR DISPLAY.
THEN WHERE IS THE
REST OF MY SAILOR?
HE WAS PLANTED IN THE SHAFT AT ASSATEAGUE
ISLAND TO MAKE THE TREASURE BUSINESS SEEM REAL.
BUT SOMEBODY FOUND OUT. WHO?
A MURDERER.
OKAY, LET ME SEE IF
I GET THIS STRAIGHT.
THE PIRATE BONES YOU RECOVERED CAME
FROM THE JEFFERSONIAN TO START WITH.
CORRECT. 300-YEAR-OLD BONES
STOLEN FROM OUR OWN PIRATE EXHIBIT.
AND THEN RECOVERED BY ONE OF
YOUR OWN PEOPLE? DR. HODGINS.
WHO BROUGHT THEM BACK TO THE
JEFFERSONIAN WHERE THEY WERE STOLEN AGAIN?
- RE-STOLEN, SIR.
- YOU GOT A SECURITY PROBLEM,
DR. GOODMAN.
WHEN I FIND OUT WHO DID THIS,
YOU HAVE A MURDER PROBLEM.
BUT I'M ON TOP OF IT, OKAY? YOU
DIDN'T HAVE TO COME DOWN HERE, SIR.
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT UNTIL I GOT A CALL
FROM SOMEONE AT THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE.
DEFENSE? HOW DO THEY FIGURE
INTO A MURDER INVESTIGATION?
BRANSON ROSE. HE HAS
FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES,
AND THEY DON'T LIKE IT WHEN THE GUY
WHO BUILDS THEIR BOMBERS IS UNHAPPY.
ARE THEY AFRAID HE'LL BOMB THEM?
WHAT IS THAT? SQUINT HUMOR?
'CAUSE I'M NOT LAUGHING.
DEFENSE DOESN'T NEED A REASON TO GO TO WAR,
AND I'M NOT ABOUT TO BE THEIR NEXT TARGET.
WE HAVEN'T RULED
ROSE OUT AS A SUSPECT.
OF COURSE NOT. YOU'RE TOO
BUSY LOOKING FOR YOUR BONES.
LET'S NOT MAKE THIS PERSONAL. ROSE
WANTS TO KEEP PLAYING IN THE MUD,
AND HIS BIG SHOT FRIENDS ARE
GOING TO SEE THAT THAT HAPPENS...
UNLESS WE COME UP
WITH SOME ANSWERS FAST.
AT THIS POINT, IT APPEARS AS IF
THE STOLEN 300-YEAR-OLD BONES...
ARE BEING USED TO, YOU
KNOW, SALT THE SHAFT.
"SALT THE SHAFT"? YEAH. YOU KNOW,
AN INVESTOR SPENDS A MILLION BUCKS.
HE GETS ANTSY WHEN NOTHING HAPPENS, AND
THEN... VOILÀ... YOU KNOW, PIRATE BONES APPEAR,
AND THE GOLDEN GOOSE
KEEPS... LAYING THOSE EGGS.
OKAY, THAT IS A CONVOLUTED
METAPHOR, BOOTH.
IT'S A HOAX, DR. BRENNAN.
LIKE PILTDOWN MAN.
OH, GOT IT. WHY CAN'T
YOU BE CLEAR LIKE THAT?
- ASSUME THE BONES WERE STOLEN...
- RE-STOLEN.
RE-STOLEN SO YOU WOULDN'T
FIND OUT THEY WERE BOGUS...
- HOW DID YOU?
- HOW DID I WHAT?
FROM THE FINGER. THEY DIDN'T
GET THE ENTIRE SKELETON.
WOULD YOU LIKE DR. BRENNAN TO
TAKE YOU THROUGH THE PROCESS?
I REALLY, REALLY WOULDN'T.
- SO WHO DO YOU LIKE?
- I LIKE THE PARTNER.
GILES HARDEWICKE.
ACCESS, MOTIVE, ABILITY.
DR. GOODMAN, THE F.B.I. WILL PROVIDE
WHATEVER HELP YOU NEED TO SOLVE...
YOUR BREACH OF SECURITY
AT THE JEFFERSONIAN.
YOU WORK THE, UH, PARTNER ANGLE.
WELL, MY FATHER WORKED THE
FISHING BOAT. HIS DAD BEFORE THAT.
HECK, ME AND MY BROTHER, WE
NEVER KNEW ANYTHING BUT THE SEA.
HUNTING FOR TREASURE JUST
SORTA GREW OUTTA THAT, I GUESS.
ANY REGRETS? SURE. MY BROTHER.
YEAH. YEAH.
THAT AND THE FACT THAT
THEY MIGHT SHUT US DOWN.
HEY, NOT IF WE FIND
SOMETHING, HUH?
YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA
TURN OUT TO BE JUST ANOTHER DESK JOCKEY.
YOU READ A FEW BOOKS AND WAS LOOKING FOR
SOMETHING TO BRIGHTEN UP HIS BORING LIFE.
TELL YOU WHAT. I'D BE DOWN
THAT SHAFT RIGHT NOW...
IF BIG BROTHER DIDN'T HAVE THE
MINIMUM TIME REQUIREMENT BETWEEN DIVES.
YOU DESERVE TO BE HERE.
YOU REALLY DO. THANKS FOR THAT.
I GUESS IT'S ALL
RIGHT TO TELL YOU.
THE BONES WERE PLANTED.
YOU DON'T SEEM SURPRISED.
MAN, NOTHING SURPRISES ME OUT
OF THAT GOSH DANG PIT ANYMORE.
NAH. I MEAN, YOU DIG DOWN FAR
ENOUGH, YOU'LL COME OUT IN HELL.
SO, UH, IF YOU
DON'T FIND ANYTHING,
ARE YOU GONNA SHUT US DOWN?
HEY, I'M NOT F.B.I.
I'M JUST A SCIENTIST.
IT'S A CRIME SCENE. I'M SURPRISED
THEY LET YOU DOWN HERE.
HEY, I'M AN EXPERT IN
SILT, PLANTS AND INSECTS.
THAT'S RIGHT. I GOT
THREE DOCTORATES. WHOA.
WHEN YOU GOT THREE
DOCTORATES AND YOU TELL THE F.B.I...
YOU NEED MORE SAMPLES,
WHO'S GONNA ARGUE?
ONE DOCTORATE, YEAH,
MAYBE THEY ARGUE, BUT THREE?
YOU WANNA GO BACK
DOWN AGAIN, DON'T YOU?
I COULD USE YOUR HELP, MAN.
YOU GOT THE BUG, MAN!
HEY, LIKE I SAID, I
AM THE BUG MAN.
IF YOU LOST THE BONES, HOW
DO YOU KNOW THEY'RE FAKE?
THEY DIDN'T GET EVERYTHING. AH. A
STROKE OF LUCK FOR THE GOOD GUYS.
WE WILL FIND OUT HOW THOSE BONES
WERE STOLEN FROM THE JEFFERSONIAN.
YOU STILL THINK I
DID IT, DON'T YOU?
WHY WERE YOU GOING TO
BREAK UP THE COMPANY?
LET ME GUESS. KATIE
NEY TOLD YOU THAT.
WHAT MAKES YOU
THINK IT WAS KATIE?
THAT WAS A STOCK PART OF MACY'S SEDUCTION
TECHNIQUE, AND IT WAS VERY EFFECTIVE.
"I RISK MY LIFE DOWN IN THAT HOLE
WHILE MY PARTNER STAYS SAFE TOPSIDE."
THAT'S HOW HE POSITIONED
HIMSELF AS THE HEROIC EXPLORER.
WHICH HE WAS, BY THE WAY,
WHEN IT CAME TO THE LADIES.
- YOUR PARTNERSHIP WAS INTACT?
- TILL DEATH DID US PART.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT. I'M GONNA GIVE
YOU GUYS FULL ACCESS TO THE BOOKS.
YOU DON'T EVEN NEED
A SEARCH WARRANT.
THERE'S NOT A SINGLE WAY IN WHICH
MY LIFE IS BETTER OFF WITHOUT MACY.
LIKE I SAID, I MISS THE MAN.
THE BONES WERE STOLEN TWICE. THE
FIRST TIME FROM THE PIRATE EXHIBIT.
THE SECOND TIME FROM THE BONE
ROOM HERE IN THE MEDICO-LEGAL LAB.
AND THE SECURITY IN THE LAB IS
TIGHTER SO THE CAMERA IS CONTINUOUS.
BUT THE CAMERA IN THE ROTUNDA IS
STOP-ACTION EVERY THREE SECONDS.
I STARTED WITH THE LAB THEFT...
BECAUSE WE KNOW THE BONES WERE
STOLEN BETWEEN 9:00 P.M. AND 6:00 A.M.
OKAY, WATCH... HERE.
THE BONES ARE GONE.
NOTICE THE TIME CODE.
- WHAT'S THAT?
- THE CAMERA WAS TURNED OFF.
THE CAMERA WAS TURNED OFF
FOR ONE MINUTE AND 46 SECONDS.
IT WOULD TAKE A LOT LESS TIME
THAN THAT TO ENTER THE ROOM...
AND GATHER UP THE
BONES AND ESCAPE.
NOW.
DR. GOODMAN? YES?
CAN I ASK, WHY ARE WE DOING THIS
INVESTIGATION INSTEAD OF SECURITY?
WE SHOULDN'T WALK TOO QUICKLY. IT WOULD
AROUSE SUSPICION. NEITHER WOULD OUR THIEF.
I'M HAPPY TO HELP, BUT WE DO HAVE
ACTUAL SECURITY PROFESSIONALS...
IS THERE ANY WAY TO TELL IF
THOSE TAPES HAVE BEEN DOCTORED?
YEAH. SINCE THEY'RE PHYSICAL
MAGNETIC TAPES, NOT STORED DIGITALLY.
I ALWAYS DID LIKE ANALOG
BETTER. NOW I KNOW WHY.
MY POINT IS, IS THAT I'M
ONLY AN AMATEUR AT THIS,
AND I'M SURE THE SECURITY DEPARTMENT
IS BETTER EQUIPPED AND TRAINED...
AFTERNOON, PAUL. BEST TO SUSAN
AND LAURA. I HOPE JOHNNY FEELS BETTER.
THANK YOU, DR. GOODMAN. OKAY, YOU
DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT. I GET IT.
SIR? HIT YOUR STOPWATCH,
PLEASE, MISS MONTENEGRO.
35.6 SECONDS.
DOUBLE THAT FOR A ROUND TRIP.
THAT'S ONE MINUTE, 10 SECONDS,
LEAVING APPROXIMATELY 30 SECONDS
TO BAG THE BONES AND GET BACK.
GET BACK WHERE?
OH. HUH. WOW, YOU
MUST THINK I'M AN IDIOT.
I WAS GRANDSTANDING.
I CAN BE LIKE THAT.
SO WE FIND OUT WHAT GUARDS WERE
ON DUTY DURING THE TWO THEFTS,
AND WE MIGHT HAVE OUR THIEF?
I DIDN'T SEE THE HARM.
IN STEALING HUMAN REMAINS?
AFTER 300 YEARS, IT'S NOT LIKE HE'S
GOT A FAMILY GRIEVING FOR HIM OUT THERE.
THINK OF ME AS A
GRIEVING PARENT.
- GRAND THEFT, BUDDY. YOU'RE LOOKING AT EIGHT YEARS.
- IF I DON'T KILL YOU.
COME ON. WHAT'S A BUNCH OF OLD
BONES LIKE THAT WORTH? NOTHING.
- HOW MUCH DID YOU GET FOR 'EM?
- A COUPLE OF HUNDRED BUCKS.
YEAH. SO THIS, UH...
WIRE TRANSFER INTO
YOUR BANK FOR 10 GRAND...
WAS THAT INHERITANCE?
WHO DID YOU STEAL THEM FOR?
WE DIDN'T REALLY DO THE
NAME EXCHANGE THING.
- SOMEBODY APPROACHED YOU?
- YEAH.
LET'S SEE. OKAY,
WHICH ONE WAS IT?
- WELL, WHICH TIME?
- THE FIRST TIME.
HIM. BUT HE LOOKED BETTER.
- AND THE SECOND TIME?
- UM, HIM.
OH, LOOK, GUYS, I'M
COOPERATING, ALL RIGHT?
I WILL GIVE BACK THE
MONEY. I WILL QUIT MY JOB.
HOW'S ABOUT WE JUST CALL IT
EVEN? HOW'S ABOUT WE CALL THE D.A.?
YOU NEED A BETTER SCREENING

ABOUT THIS? I'M A PRETTY OPEN GUY.
BUT IF YOU KEEP PUSHING, IT'S GONNA

CHIEF PETTY OFFICER,
NAVAL SPECIAL WARFARE.
- OH, YEAH. HAD TO BE.
- WHAT?
GUY WAS A NAVY SEAL.
SO? YOU WERE A GUIDE.
A RANGER. I WAS A
RANGER, BONES, OKAY?
I WAS NOT A GUIDE. GUIDES,
THEY SHOW YOU WATERFALLS.
THEY SELL YOU

WHAT'S HE DOING AT THE SHAFT?
ARE RANGERS AFRAID OF SEALs?
WHAT? COME ON, BONES. NO.
RANGERS AREN'T AFRAID

SEALs ARE PRETTY GOOD THOUGH.
- HEY, DANE.

YEAH. I DO, AND YOU'LL SHOOT ME.
DANE! CAN YOU SEE THIS, MAN?

A REAL GOLD PIRATE COIN.
HOW MANY MORE ARE DOWN THERE?
BRANSON ROSE HAS AGREED TO HAVE THE MUSEUM
DO THE AUTHENTICATION OF THE ENTIRE TREASURE.
THERE WON'T BE ANY MORE.
WHAT MAKES YOU SAY THAT?
I WAS DOWN THERE. IT'S NOT
GONNA GIVE IT UP THAT EASILY.
BUT THE TREASURE'S BEEN LOCATED.
AND I'M SURE IT'S
BEEN LOCATED BEFORE.
I'LL TAKE THAT.
YOU THINK HE'S HAPPY
TO BE BACK HOME?
WELL, HE LOOKS THAT WAY TO ME.
- HE'S NOT HAPPY.
- WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
HODGINS IS RIGHT. HE'D BE A LOT
HAPPIER AT THE BOTTOM OF THAT SHAFT.
WITH THE OTHER PIRATES.

- ARRGH, MATEY!
ARRGH! ARRGH, MATEY!
WHAT'S THAT MEAN?
WHY DO THE F.B.I. ALWAYS
STICK THEIR MORGUES...
IN THE MOST DEPRESSING
BASEMENT THEY CAN FIND?
DON'T BE SUCH A SNOB, BONES. NOT EVERYONE
GETS TO PLAY IN A MULTIMILLION-DOLLAR LAB.
IT'S BECAUSE AS A SOCIETY WE
FEEL THE NEED TO HIDE DEATH AWAY,
AND PEOPLE WHO DEAL WITH
THE DEAD ARE VIEWED AS FREAKS.
I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S THE BASEMENT THING,
BUT THIS GUY, HARRY, HE'S A BIT TWISTED.
YOU PROBABLY THINK I GET SOME KIND OF RUSH
WHEN I WORK, THAT I'M SOMEHOW TITILLATED.
CHOICE OF WORDS,
BONES. CHOICE OF WORDS.
AGENT BOOTH.
HARRY TEPPER, MEET DR. TEMPERANCE
BRENNAN FROM THE JEFFERSONIAN.
- I'VE READ HER.
- HELLO.
SHE'S GOOD. READ YOUR NOVEL TOO.
THE HEROINE'S VERY AGGRESSIVE.
HARRY? YOU WANT TO...
OKAY, EVERYBODY, MEET TED MACY.
BODY WAS FOUND
IN A NATIONAL PARK.
LOCAL CORONER WROTE IT OFF AS
SOME KIND OF AN ACCIDENTAL DROWNING,
BUT WE HAVE TO INVESTIGATE
EVERY DEATH ON FEDERAL LAND.
DURING MY EXAMINATION, I
FOUND HE HAD A CRUSHED LARYNX.
- THAT DIDN'T SEEM ACCIDENTAL.
- THIS IS A CORPSE. WITH SKIN.
- SHE IS GOOD.
- WHY AM I HERE? YOU KNOW
I DON'T WORK WITH SKIN.
RELAX, BONES. I DIDN'T BRING
YOU HERE TO EXAMINE THE BODY.
I WANT YOU TO SEE WHAT THEY
FOUND IN HIS HAND. HARRY? BONE?
- WHAT IS THAT?
- IT'S A PHALANX.
FINGER BONE. FIGURED
SHE'D KNOW THAT.
YEAH, I'D FIGURE ANY COMPETENT MEDICAL
EXAMINER WOULD KNOW NOT TO COMPROMISE EVIDENCE.
- IS THIS LYSOL I.C.?
- WE USE IT
TO DECONTAMINATE REMAINS.
ARE YOU TRYING TO BREAK DOWN
THE PERIOSTEAL SURFACE OF THE BONE?
- WREAK HAVOC ON THE MARROW? DID YOU EVEN DILUTE THIS?
- BONES!
WHAT? YOU'VE REMOVED
PARTICULATES AND TRACE ELEMENTS...
THAT COULD POTENTIALLY
LEAD US TO HIS KILLER.
- IS THIS YOUR FIRST DAY
ON THE JOB?
- EIGHTEEN YEARS NEXT MONTH.
EIGHTEEN YEARS.
SHE'S INTENSE.
NATIVE AMERICAN.
BRITISH COLONIAL.
AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY.
HEY, WHAT ARE WE PLAYING?
DR. BRENNAN, THE DESTROYER
OF EVIDENCE IS HERE.
OKAY, I ASSUME THAT'S A
JOKE SO NOBODY GETS HURT.
DID HARRY REALLY
MESS UP THAT BONE?
HE DISSOLVED ANY TRACES OF
INGRAINED PARTICULATES ON THE SURFACE.
- BUT WE ARE STILL ABLE TO SAVE
SOME VALUABLE ATTRIBUTES.
- LIKE WHAT?
ALTERNATING SCLEROTIC AND POROTIC
AREAS ON SUBPERIOSTEAL SURFACE...
DEMONSTRATES THAT WHOEVER THIS
WAS SUFFERED FROM TERTIARY SYPHILIS.
TERTIARY SYPHILIS.
WOW, THAT'S THE WORST!
IT WAS A COMMON AILMENT
IN THE 17th CENTURY.
- WHICH IS WHERE
THE BONE DATES FROM.
- SAY WHAT?
WE RAN A RADIOCARBON DATING
TEST. THE FINGER'S OVER 300 YEARS OLD.
- A UNIQUE FIND FOR THE AREA.
- I'M GONNA CHANGE
TO FRENCH TRAPPER.
- YOU CAN'T CHANGE YOURS.
- BOOTH, WHERE DID THEY FIND
THE VICTIM?
THEY SHIPPED HIM OVER FROM SOME RESORT
TOWN NEXT TO A FEDERAL SEASIDE PRESERVE.
- ASSATEAGUE ISLAND.
- THAT'S WHERE THE MONEY PIT IS.
- MONEY PIT?
- LEGEND IS...
ASSATEAGUE ISLAND IS WHERE
BLACKBEARD BURIED HIS TREASURE.
FOR 300 YEARS, PEOPLE
HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND IT.
THEY'VE DUG IT OUT TO SOMETHING LIKE
150 FEET, BUT THEY'VE FOUND NOTHING.
EVERY TIME THEY COME CLOSE, THEY TRIGGER
A BAFFLE THAT FLOODS THE PIT WITH SEAWATER.
BOOBY TRAPS. COOL.
THE BODY WAS
FOUND AT A DIG SITE.
THIS IS THE FIRST
CONCRETE EVIDENCE...
THAT THE TREASURE
IS MORE THAN A LEGEND.
I'LL BET THIS IS FROM ONE OF THE
MEN WHO BURIED THE TREASURE.
- PURE CONJECTURE.
- PIRATE.
- PIRATE?
- PIRATE?
- IT'S A PIRATE.
- YOU CAN'T CHANGE YOURS.
- SO THE VICTIM FINDS EVIDENCE
THAT THE TREASURE EXISTS.
SOMEBODY ELSE WANTS IT ALL FOR THEMSELVES.
CERTAINLY THAT'S A GOOD MOTIVE FOR MURDER.
WE GOTTA SEE WHAT ELSE WE
CAN FIND. I'LL BE GLAD TO HELP.
- THAT'S OKAY. I CAN HANDLE IT.
- COME ON, MAN. SHARE THE WEALTH.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR
ANSWERS, JACK, NOT TREASURE.
- DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT
TREASURE EXISTS DOWN THERE?
- WHAT DO YOU THINK?
WHY ARE YOU GUYS SMILING?
PIRATES! PIRATES!
IT'S A GUY THING, SWEETIE.
MM-HMM. YEAH.
SO THE DEAD GUY,
MACY, RAN THE DIG.
WITH HIS PARTNER, HARDEWICKE. HE WAS
HIRED BY ANYONE WITH MONEY TO BURN.
WHA... PEOPLE WOULD DO THAT?
SANE PEOPLE? LOOK FOR TREASURE?
WELL, ISN'T THAT WHAT
ARCHAEOLOGISTS DO?
ARCHAEOLOGISTS ARE SCIENTISTS WHO USE
EVIDENCE ON WHICH TO BASE THEIR EXPLORATIONS,
NOT SOME PIRATE MOVIE
THEY SAW WHEN THEY WERE 10.
YEAH, WELL, THAT 300-YEAR-OLD
BONE THAT WE JUST FOUND...
SORT OF, UH, CHANGES THINGS
NOW, DOESN'T IT THERE, MATEY?
WHAT'S GOIN' ON OVER
THERE? IT'S A CRIME SCENE.
I TRIED TO STOP HIM, BUT THAT'S BRANSON ROSE
BACK THERE. THE MAYOR TOLD ME TO LET HIM IN.
BRANSON ROSE IS
FUNDING THIS DIG?
HAS BEEN FOR TWO YEARS,
BUT I HEARD HE WAS PULLING OUT.
ALL RIGHT. THANKS. I'LL
TAKE IT FROM HERE. SURE.
WHO'S BRANSON ROSE? THE
BILLIONAIRE ADVENTURER.
YOU KNOW, HE MADE HIS FORTUNE
MAKING AIRCRAFT FOR THE MILITARY.
OWNS ABOUT HALF THE WORLD.
HE'S THE GUY WHO HAS THAT REALITY
SHOW THAT GOES ALL OVER THE WORLD AND...
STILL NO TV? WHY
DO I EVEN BOTHER?
YOU CAN'T PULL OUT NOW. SO YOU CAN SUE,
BUT I DON'T THINK YOU HAVE THE RESOURCES.
MR. ROSE, WE JUST BROKE 200
FEET. NOW, IF YOU PULL OUT NOW...
I'VE BEEN HEARING
THAT FOR TWO YEARS.
- LOAD MY GEAR IN THE TRUCK.
- UH, EXCUSE ME?
MR. ROSE, MACY...
HE KNEW IT. HE FELT IT.
- EXCUSE ME!
- TWO YEARS. TWO MILLION DOLLARS.
THERE'S NOTHING DOWN THERE,
GILES. MACY DIED FOR NOTHING.
F.B.I. YOU'RE ALL UNDER ARREST!
BONES, YOU DON'T GET TO SAY
THAT. I'M THE ONE WITH THE BADGE.
- THE F.B.I.'S INVOLVED NOW?
- YEAH. YOU KNOW, MURDER
ON FEDERAL LAND.
- WE LIKE TO POKE AROUND
A LITTLE.
- MURDER?
YEAH. MURDER. YOU
SAID IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.
OH, MY GOD.
HE FOUND SOMETHING.
PUT MY STUFF BACK NOW!
WHAT DID MACY FIND THAT
WOULD BE WORTH KILLING HIM FOR?
IN 1832, A TEAM OF SIX MEN
LOOKING FOR THE TREASURE...
WERE KILLED WHEN A SHAFT
THEY WERE DIGGING COLLAPSED.
BLACKBEARD'S CURSE, MAN.
A CURSE? WE'RE SCIENTISTS.
LOOK AT THIS. 1902.
TWO MEN DISAPPEARED WHILE
DIGGING. NEVER FOUND THEIR BODIES.
OH, THAT'S VERY "CURSEY."
SO YOU BELIEVE IN PIRATES?
PIRATES AREN'T SANTA,
ZACK. THEY DID EXIST.
THEY DID HAVE TREASURES,
AND THEY DID BURY IT.
YOU KNOW, I HAD AN EYE
PATCH WHEN I WAS SIX.
WHO DIDN'T, MY
FRIEND? WHO DIDN'T?
IT'S NOT NECESSARY
TO LEAD ME LIKE A CHILD.
I'D RATHER NOT HAVE ANY
MORE EVIDENCE COMPROMISED.
YOU'RE SQUEEZING
MY ARM VERY TIGHTLY.
SORRY. NO, NO. IT'S OKAY.
YOU CAN GIVE IT TO
DR. HODGINS. WHAT IS THIS?
SOIL AND WATER COLLECTED FROM
TED MACY'S THROAT AND LUNGS.
HE WAS FOUND FLOATING IN HIS
DRY SUIT AT THE TOP OF THE SHAFT.
YOU KNOW WHAT WE NEED YOU TO
DO? YOUR DIRT THING. YOU KNOW?
MATCH THE SLIME TO THE CRIME.
MAKE SURE THAT'S WHERE HE WAS KILLED.
I'D LIKE TO LOOK AT X-RAYS
OF THE VICTIM'S SKELETON.
BOSSY. DO NOT GO THERE.
IN THE INTEREST OF BEING
THOROUGH, I NEED TO DETERMINE...
IF HE DIED AT THE TOP OR DIED
AT THE BOTTOM AND FLOATED UP.
I NEED SILT ABSTRACTS
FROM BOTH LEVELS.
- FINE. WE'LL GET THOSE FOR YOU.
- NO, NO. NO.
THE SOIL LOOKS LIKE
AN ODD MIXTURE OF CLAY,
PLAGIOCLASE FELDSPAR, PYROXENE.
I REALLY WOULDN'T TRUST ANYONE
ELSE TO HARVEST THE SAMPLES PROPERLY.
YOU JUST WANT TO
LOOK FOR TREASURE.
I AM A SERIOUS SCIENTIST...
MERELY TRYING TO DO MY
JOB AS WELL AS POSSIBLE.
THAT SHAFT IS OVER 200
FEET DEEP, YOU KNOW.
REQUIRES AN EXPERIENCED DIVER.
I AM A CERTIFIED CAVE DIVER, WHICH
MEANS I CAN GO DEEPER THAN 200 FEET.
I DOVE MAYAN BLUE,
DOS OJOS, TORTUGA.
EVER DIVE NAHARON? ONCE.
- I NAMED NAHARON.
- WELL, THEN HOW CAN YOU
SAY NO TO ME?
OKAY. BUT JUST TO
COLLECT SOIL SAMPLES.
OF COURSE.
YOU DIVE TOO? YEAH.
I HAVE THE TIME
BECAUSE I DON'T OWN A TV.
YOU WEAR A RUBBER SUIT THEN?
UH...
ACCIDENTS HAPPEN, YOU KNOW?
MACY AND I WERE
PREPARED FOR THAT.
BUT MURDER! MURDER. WOW.
ANYTHING I CAN DO TO HELP?
WE'LL TALK ABOUT
THAT A LITTLE LATER.
RIGHT NOW I WANT TO GET
HODGINS DOWN THAT SHAFT.
DANE McGINNIS. HE'S...
HE'S THE BEST I KNOW.
HE'S WORKED FOR US
FOR YEARS. AGENT BOOTH!
- ARE YOU AGENT BOOTH?
- SORRY. YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO
STAY BEHIND THE YELLOW TAPE.
I'M MAYOR NEY. YOUR MEN KEEP PUSHING
OUR TOURISTS FURTHER AND FURTHER BACK.
MAYOR? WOW. I HOPE YOU DIDN'T
LOOK LIKE THAT WHEN THEY ELECTED YOU.
BLACKBEARD'S TREASURE IS WHAT KEEPS
THE ECONOMY ON THIS ISLAND RUNNING.
THE MAYOR HERE GETS THAT...
SOMETIMES TOO INTENSELY.
HEY, I'M NOT ASHAMED. I'VE INCREASED
TOURISM 63% SINCE I TOOK OFFICE,
AND I CAN BOOST IT A BIT MORE IF THE
TOURISTS COULD GET A CLOSER LOOK.
- IT'S A MURDER SCENE,
NOT A SHOW.
- BLACKBEARD'S CURSE.
MACY WOULD'VE WANTED TO GIVE A
LITTLE BACK TO THE TOWN THAT HE LOVED.
FRANK, THE POLICE ARE
TELLING THEM NO PICTURES.
NOW, WHO IS THIS,
HUH? THE PIRATE QUEEN?
THAT'S RIGHT. MY WIFE,
KATIE. THAT'S RIGHT. GREAT.
LISTEN, YOU JUST TELL THE TOURISTS
THAT THE BAD VIEW IS PART OF THE CURSE.
WILL YOU PLEASE ESCORT THE PIRATE AND HIS
WENCH BEHIND THE YELLOW TAPE? THANK YOU.
FRANK... I'M THE MAYOR!
SO DANE... HE'S AN
EXPERIENCED GUY?
I'VE WORKED WITH HUNDREDS.
HE'S THE BEST. ALL RIGHT.
I HOPE THIS GUY KNOWS WHAT
HE'S DOING. IT'S TIGHT DOWN THERE.
AVAST, YE LUBBERS!
DANE, LET'S GET HIM READY.
YOU THINK IT'S A PIRATE?
IT'S A 300-YEAR-OLD FINGER
FROM THE LEFT HAND OF A MALE.
THAT'S ALL I'M SURE OF SO
FAR. WORTH KILLING FOR?
I WORKED A CASE ONCE WHERE A WOMAN
WAS KILLED, DISMEMBERED AND BURNED...
BECAUSE HER FRIEND THOUGHT SHE'D
TAKEN HER FAVORITE PAIR OF SLIPPERS.
CHEERY. MAYBE THEY'RE RIGHT.
MAYBE THIS MAN DIED
BURYING THE TREASURE.
IRONIC. STEALING ALL THAT
AND NEVER ENJOYING THE SPOILS.
SO YOU BELIEVE THERE'S TREASURE?
I BELIEVE THERE'S GREED.
THAT'S THE REAL CURSE.
ALL RIGHT. SAFETY
LINE, AIR HOSE.
EITHER ONE BREAKS,
YOU AIN'T COMING BACK UP.
YOU GOTTA WORK ON YOUR
BEDSIDE MANNER, DUDE.
I DON'T WANNA BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR SOME WEEKENDER...
WHO BUYS IT DOWN THERE BECAUSE
HE THINKS HE'S BETTER THAN HE IS.
YOU WANNA GO DOWN, DON'T YOU?
IT'S MY SHAFT, OKAY? I'VE
BEEN WORKING IT 10 YEARS.
THE FEDS, THEY SAY
IT'S A CRIME SCENE.
- SO I CAN'T HELP.
- YOU'RE HELPING ME.
WHY DOES HE NEED THE AIR LINE?
WHY CAN'T HE JUST USE THE TANK?
BECAUSE ABOUT A HUNDRED FOOT
DOWN, THAT SHAFT GETS A LITTLE COZY.
YOU AIN'T AFRAID OF A TIGHT
SQUEEZE, ARE YOU, DOC?
GLOVES.
JUST TAKE IT SLOW, OKAY? LOT OF STUFF
TO CATCH YOUR HOSE ON ON THE WAY DOWN.
YEAH. I SAW THE
PICTURES ROSE TOOK.
ROSE. HE NEVER WENT AS FAR
AS YOU'RE GOING. NO ONE HAS.
MAYBE HE SHOULDN'T TRY, YOU KNOW?
PEOPLE HAVE DIED DOWN THERE. NOT JUST MACY.
I KNOW. MY BROTHER
WAS ONE OF THEM.
I'M GOING ALL THE
WAY DOWN TO 200 FEET.
WE JUST HIT 200 LAST WEEK.
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO TELL ME.
- WELL, I'M READY.
- OKAY.
YOUR FRIEND BETTER BE
AS GOOD AS HE SAYS HE IS.
YOU JUST TAKE CARE
OF HIM, ALL RIGHT?
- HODGINS, YOU READ ME?
- I HEAR YOU LOUD AND CLEAR.
THERE'S SOME JAGGED
EDGES. KEEP CLEAR OF THEM.
WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
HODGINS. IT'S WARM.
PASSING THE FIRST FLOOD TRAP.
WE LOST OUR FIRST MAN THERE.
THERE'S WOOD HERE
BELOW THE LIMESTONE.
- DOES HE MAKE ANY SENSE TO YOU?
- YEAH. HE'S PASSING THE SITE
OF THE FIRST PIT COLLAPSE.
IT'S TIGHT DOWN HERE.
THERE'S A LOT OF DEBRIS.
I'M NOT SURE IF I CAN
SQUEEZE THROUGH.
HEY, THIS GUY
SWIMS LIKE A SQUID.
- HE SWIMS LIKE A SQUINT.
- WHAT?
- NEVER MIND.
- OKAY. I'M CLEAR NOW.
GOOD PICTURE TOO. WE CAN'T
GET RESOLUTION LIKE THAT.
WELL, HE'S A GEEK. YOU EVER
FIND ANYTHING DOWN HERE?
- NOT YET.
- TEN YEARS OF FINDING NOTHING,
AND YOU KEEP TRYING?
- IT'S ALL ABOUT
THE SEARCH, MAN.
- HE'S AT 170 FEET.
180.
NINETY. NO ONE'S
EVER BEEN THIS DEEP.
HE'S AT 200.
TOUCHDOWN. I AM ON THE BOTTOM.
VISIBILITY IS SURPRISINGLY GOOD.
WAIT A MINUTE. THERE'S...
THERE'S SOMETHING HERE.
- HOLY...
- WHAT IS THAT?
OH, MY... IS THAT...
- OH, MY GOD!
- IT'S THERE!
CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?
I'M AMAZED YOU FOUND
A COMPLETE SKELETON.
C-14 DATING
MATCHES AT 300 YEARS.
SUBJECT IS MALE, EARLY 20's,
APPROXIMATELY 5'6".
LEGS ARE BOWED, RESULT OF VISIBLE
CALCIUM AND PHOSPHATE DEFICIENCY.
HE HAD RICKETS AS A CHILD, BUT HIS UPPER
BODY IS EXTRAORDINARILY WELL DEVELOPED.
EPIPHYSEAL SEPARATION
IN THE LONG BONES.
SUNKEN STERNUM FORMS SCORBUTIC
ROSARY AT COSTOCHONDRAL MARGIN.
HE SUFFERED FROM SCURVY
AS WELL AS TERTIARY SYPHILIS.
WHAT'S WITH THE "TERTIARY"?
ISN'T PLAIN SYPHILIS BAD ENOUGH?
SCURVY, SYPHILIS... PIRATE.
THERE IS ANTHROPOLOGICAL
EVIDENCE WHICH SUPPORTS THE CLAIM...
THAT BLACKBEARD EXECUTED HIS BURIAL
CREWS AFTER THEY WERE DONE DIGGING.
OKAY. LET'S...
SAY IT'S A PIRATE.
- YES!
- THIS WOULD BE
AN EXTRAORDINARY FIND.
AND WOULD OPEN UP THE
REALITY OF THE TREASURE.
IT WOULD BE STUPID TO
DISMISS ANYTHING AT THIS POINT,
BUT WE NEED TO DISCOVER WHY THE OSSEIN ISN'T
FULLY DECOMPOSED FROM BEING WATERLOGGED.
ABOUT 50 FEET DOWN THE SHAFT IS A LAYER OF
BLUE PUTTY CONSISTING OF SILICONE AND CLAY.
IT COULD BE USED TO
FORM A WATERTIGHT SEAL.
THAT WOULD EXPLAIN THE
CONDITION OF THE BONES.
I TOOK SAMPLES OF THE SAME
BLUE CLAY BETWEEN 200 AND 207 FEET.
SOMETHING IS BURIED DOWN THERE.
AND THESE BONES
WERE LYING ON TOP OF IT.
MACY WAS KILLED BECAUSE
OF SOMETHING THAT HE FOUND.
THE SILT CONFIRMS HE WAS
KILLED AT THE TOP OF THE SHAFT.
AFTER HE SWAM BACK
UP WITH THE TREASURE.
SPECIAL AGENT BOOTH.
I HATE TO INTERRUPT YOUR
INVESTIGATION, AGENT BOOTH,
BUT THERE'S AN ANGRY BILLIONAIRE
IN MY OFFICE, AND HE WON'T GO AWAY.
IT'S SIMPLE. YOU HAVE
SOMETHING THAT BELONGS TO ME,
AND I'M NOT LEAVING
HERE WITHOUT IT.
A DAY AGO, YOU COULDN'T WAIT TO LEAVE,
PULL OUT OF THE ISLAND, CUT YOUR LOSSES.
YOU REMEMBER THAT? A
LOT CAN CHANGE IN A DAY.
YEAH. FOR TED
MACY, A LOT CHANGED.
LOOK, I'M SORRY ABOUT TED. BUT I'LL BE
DAMNED IF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT...
SWOOPS IN HERE AT THE 11th HOUR AND STEALS
WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIND FOR TWO YEARS.
I FAIL TO SEE WHAT THIS HAS
TO DO WITH THE JEFFERSONIAN.
THOSE BONES BELONG TO ME.
THEY WERE UNCOVERED AT MY SITE.
I WAS GRANTED A PERMIT TO DIG
THERE AND KEEP WHAT WAS FOUND.
MY ATTORNEYS ASSURED ME YOU
HAVE NO CLAIM TO THOSE BONES.
SURE. I MEAN, YOUR ATTORNEY WANTS
TO GO TO COURT FOR THE NEXT 20 YEARS...
AND BUY HIMSELF A NICE
VACATION HOME IN TUSCANY.
BUT THE FACT IS WHEN TED MACY WAS MURDERED,
YOUR PROPERTY BECAME OUR EVIDENCE.
AND IT'S GOING TO STAY THAT
WAY UNTIL WE FIND THE KILLER.
I WAS HOPING TO
SETTLE THIS AMICABLY.
REALLY? BECAUSE, YOU KNOW,
WE HAVEN'T SEEN THAT YET.
AH.
THIS IS GOING TO BE A HEADACHE. HE
HAS SOME VERY IMPORTANT FRIENDS.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHY HE'S SO UPSET.
IT'S NOT LIKE HE NEEDS THE MONEY.
BUT HE HAS PARTNERS THAT DO.
MACY AND HARDEWICKE WERE
GONNA SPLIT WHAT THEY FOUND.
- BUT MACY IS DEAD.
- EXACTLY.
LEAVING HARDEWICKE WITH
A BIGGER PIECE OF THE PIE.
THIS IS FROM OUR VERY
FIRST DIG TOGETHER.
WE FOUND THIS... THIS CHEST
BURIED UNDER A FLOOD DRAIN...
UP IN SMITH'S COVE
IN NEW ENGLAND.
THERE WAS NO TREASURE, BUT JUST TO UNEARTH
SOMETHING THAT OLD, HAD THAT MUCH HISTORY...
WE WERE HOOKED.
NEVER LOOKED BACK.
I GLANCED THROUGH
YOUR COMPANY HISTORY.
I MEAN, BUSINESS WAS PRETTY SLOW SINCE
YOU DIDN'T FIND ANY TREASURE OUT HERE.
YOU WERE GETTING FEWER AND FEWER
CLIENTS. YEAH, IT'S BEEN DIFFICULT.
BRANSON ROSE WAS
ALMOST YOUR LAST CHANCE.
THERE'S ALWAYS SOMEBODY WHO
WANTS TO LOOK FOR TREASURE.
REALLY? YEAH.
YOU KNOW, IF BRANSON ROSE, HE
PULLS OUT, YOU'D GET A LOT OF PUBLICITY.
YOU CAN END UP... SINKING YOUR
BUSINESS. BUT MACY FOUND SOMETHING.
AND WE'RE GONNA SHARE THE FIND
WITH ROSE... 50% FOR HIM, 50 FOR US.
EXACTLY. OH, I SEE.
MORE FOR ME IF MACY'S
OUT OF THE PICTURE, RIGHT?
YOU'RE FORGETTING ONE THING.
MACY WAS LIKE FAMILY TO ME.
REALLY? LOOK AT THIS. SEE THAT?
I GOT THAT PULLING MACY
OUT OF A SINKHOLE BACK IN '93.
AND HE'S GOT PLENTY OF SCARS
ON HIM BECAUSE OF ME TOO.
HOW'D YOU GET ALL THOSE BRUISES
AROUND YOUR SCAR THERE, HUH?
THE MAYOR.
HOW'S THE MAYOR
FIGURE INTO ALL THIS?
HIS WIFE. YOU SAW HER, RIGHT?
MACY WAS A BIT OF A HOUND.
SLEEPING WITH THE PIRATE QUEEN?
THE MAYOR GOT SUSPICIOUS.
HE CAME AROUND LAST WEEK.
AND I ENDED UP TAKING THE HEAT FOR
MACY, BECAUSE MACY'S LIKE MY BROTHER.
AND I'LL TELL YOU, THAT SCRAWNY
LITTLE PIRATE, HE CAN KICK TOO.
I'M LUCKY HE DIDN'T HAVE TIME
TO LOAD THAT FLINTLOCK. CHARLIE!
NO! PUT THAT DOWN! LEAVE IT
THERE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
ZACK? ZACK? THE BONES! WHAT
DID YOU DO WITH THE BONES?
NOTHING, DR. BRENNAN. I LEFT THEM
ON THE TABLE JUST LIKE YOU ASKED.
WHERE THE HELL ARE MY BONES?
BONES DON'T JUST DISAPPEAR. I
THOUGHT THIS WAS A SECURE FACILITY.
YOU ASSURED ME THIS
WAS A SECURE FACILITY.
I COULD BE WORKING AT
STANFORD, YOU KNOW?
THIS NEVER WOULD'VE
HAPPENED AT STANFORD.
WE SPEND 3/4 OF A MILLION ANNUALLY ON
SECURITY. OBVIOUSLY THAT'S NOT ENOUGH.
I WANT MY BONES! DID
YOU FIND MY BONES?
OOH, MAYBE YOU JUST WANT
TO, YOU KNOW, CHILL A LITTLE?
- CHILL?
- YEAH. TAKE A PILL?
LISTEN, DUDE, MY LAB WAS
VIOLATED, MY BONES WERE STOLEN,
SO I THINK I'LL REMAIN WARM
FOR A LITTLE WHILE LONGER.
HONEY, MAYBE YOU SHOULD
FOCUS ON YOUR BREATHING.
- BREATHING.
- COUNT TO 10.
- TEN.
- HAVE A SHOT OF JACK.
SHOT OF JACK. WE'RE DOING
EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN, OKAY?
I PROMISE YOU WE'RE
GONNA FIND YOUR BONES,
BUT YOU HAVE TO
ALLOW US TO DO OUR JOB.
I GUESS I WASN'T HELPING
ALL THAT MUCH, WAS I?
I... I'M...
SORRY. IT'S COOL.
HEY, LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE.
THIS WHOLE THEFT THING
COULD BE GOOD FOR US, RIGHT?
WHOEVER TOOK THE BONES OBVIOUSLY
HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE MURDER.
I'VE ORDERED ON-DUTY PERSONNEL TO GIVE A
MINUTE-BY-MINUTE ACCOUNT OF THEIR ROUNDS.
- I WANT ACCOUNT OF ALL
OFF-DUTY PERSONNEL AS WELL.
- THEY DIDN'T GET EVERYTHING.
- I THOUGHT ALL THE BONES
WERE ON THE TABLE.
- ALL THE NEW ONES.
I WAS EXAMINING THE ORIGINAL FINGER BONE
WE FOUND FOR SCURVY, SO IT WAS IN MY ROOM.
THERE IS SOMETHING THEY DON'T
WANT US TO FIND ON THIS BONE.
EVERYONE KNEW MACY.
HELPED FRANK GET ELECTED.
SO YOU WOULD CATEGORIZE YOUR
RELATIONSHIP AS JUST FRIENDS?
YEAH. FRIENDS. IT'S A SMALL
TOWN. WE'RE ALL FRIENDS.
WELL, WHOEVER KILLED
MACY WASN'T TOO FRIENDLY.
HE WOULDN'T HURT A SOUL, MACY.
HE WAS A SWEET GUY.
THE WAY YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT HIM, IT
SEEMS LIKE YOU WERE MORE THAN JUST FRIENDS.
HARDEWICKE TOLD YOU,
RIGHT? LIKE HE'S SUCH A SAINT.
HOW INVOLVED WERE
THE TWO OF YOU?
IT WAS JUST ONE OF
THOSE THINGS, YOU KNOW?
I WASN'T GONNA LEAVE
FRANK OR ANYTHING.
I WANTED TO SEE WHAT IT WAS
LIKE TO BE WITH A REAL ADVENTURER,
RATHER THAN A GUY
WHO DRESSES UP LIKE ONE.
FRANK WENT AFTER HARDEWICKE
WHEN HE THOUGHT IT WAS HIM.
YOU THINK FRANK KILLED
HIM? YOU SAW FRANK.
WELL, YEAH. YOU KNOW,
HE'S... HE'S A LITTLE UNSTABLE.
AND HE FINDS OUT SOMEBODY
MADE A FOOL OF HIM TWICE, I...
IT'S HARDEWICKE AND THE RICH
GUY YOU SHOULD BE LOOKING AT.
MACY SAID THEY WERE ALL FIGHTING
OVER THE MONEY THEY WERE SPENDING.
SAID HARDEWICKE DIDN'T APPRECIATE ALL THE
WORK HE DID, WANTED TO BREAK UP THE COMPANY.
WELL, WE'RE LOOKING
INTO EVERYONE. THANKS.
SURE. BUT ALL THIS
COMING UP AGAIN...
JUST TRY NOT TO RUIN MY
MARRIAGE, OKAY? I MADE A MISTAKE.
BUT I LOVE THAT STUPID PIRATE,
AND I DON'T WANT TO LOSE HIM.
WELL, THANKS FOR TALKING
TO ME. I'LL... I'LL BE IN TOUCH.
THE PERIOSTEAL
SURFACE ON THE PHALANX...
DOESN'T HAVE ANY INGRAINED
PARTICULATES THAT I CAN RECOVER.
THE SOLUTION THAT THE M.E. USED
PROBABLY DISSOLVED ANYTHING...
THAT WAS LODGED IN ANY
SURFACE IRREGULARITIES.
WHO WOULD CLEAN A BONE BEFORE EXTRACTING
ALL AVAILABLE INFORMATION FROM IT?
NOT EVERYONE IS A THOROUGH
AS WE ARE, ZACK. SO TRUE. SO TRUE.
I WONDER IF THERE
WAS GOLD DUST ON IT.
PERHAPS YOU SHOULD START WORKING
WITH A PARROT ON YOUR SHOULDER.
YOU'RE NOT CURIOUS?
YES. ABOUT THE FACTS.
THERE'S A SMALL HOLE...
ALONG THE DISTAL ARTICULAR
FACET OF THE FINGER.
IT COULD BE FORAMEN, BUT IT
COULD BE SOMETHING ELSE, MAN-MADE.
A WEAPON? MAYBE.
SEE IF YOU CAN FIND
ANY POSSIBLE MATCHES.
I WONDER IF THERE ARE ANY
OTHER SIMILAR MARKS ON MACY.
I'LL FIND OUT. AND DON'T LET
THAT BONE OUT OF YOUR SIGHT.
DR. BRENNAN THOUGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE
OVERLOOKED A WEAPON OF SOME KIND.
HE WASN'T KILLED BY ANY WEAPON.
HE WAS STRANGLED.
THE LARYNX IS
CRUSHED. IT'S PLAIN.
AND C-2 THROUGH
C-4 ARE FRACTURED.
THAT WOULDN'T HAVE OCCURRED
IF HE WERE MERELY STRANGLED.
IF THE VICTIM WAS SHAKEN
WHILE BEING STRANGLED...
THE FRACTURES ARE ALL LEFT TO RIGHT,
APPROXIMATELY 45-DEGREE ANGLES ON EACH BONE.
THAT MEANS THE HEAD WAS
JERKED TO THE LEFT AND UP,
MAKING SURE THAT THE
SPINAL CORD WOULD TEAR.
THE LARYNX WAS CRUSHED
WHEN HIS NECK WAS BROKEN.
I'M ALWAYS OPEN TO
BEING CORRECTED.
WHY DO YOU THINK THERE
MIGHT HAVE BEEN A WEAPON?
I SAW A SMALL PERFORATION IN THE FINGER
BONE WHICH YOU DECIDED TO PUT IN SOLVENT.
DID YOU DAMAGE THE BONE?
POKE IT? STICK IT IN SOME WAY?
STILL ANGRY. OKAY. NO. I HANDLED
IT ACCORDING TO PROTOCOL...
RUBBER GLOVES,
RIGHT INTO THE SOLVENT.
SOMETHING DAMAGED THAT BONE,
AND IT DIDN'T HAPPEN 300 YEARS...
WAIT A MINUTE.
I HAVE ALTERNATIVES THAT
COULD'VE CAUSED THE HOLE.
THIS IS A DISPOSABLE
ACUPUNCTURE NEEDLE.
OH, COME ON. HE WAS
HEALED TO DEATH?
THIS IS A FILAMENT USED
FOR AN ANGIOPLASTY.
HAND ME THE WIRE.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
DIMINISHED FLUORESCENCE.
THAT ONLY HAPPENS IF THE BONES
HAVE BEEN CLEANED AND TREATED.
THESE BONES DIDN'T
START OUT IN THE SHAFT.
THEY WERE PLACED THERE. WHAT?
WHO'S GOT 300-YEAR-OLD BONES?
I ASSURE YOU EVERYTHING
HERE IS AUTHENTIC, DR. BRENNAN.
I CURATED THIS EXHIBIT FOR
THE JEFFERSONIAN MYSELF.
COULD YOU PLEASE OPEN THE CASE?
THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL
SPECIMEN... FOUND IN JAMAICA.
WE BELIEVE HE SAILED
WITH HENRY MORGAN.
- HE'S NEVER BEEN
ON A BOAT IN HIS LIFE.
- THAT'S ABSURD.
OH, MY GOD. THESE
BONES ARE ARTIFICIAL.
IT'S ACRYLIC, NOT BONE.
YOU CAN SEE ON THE REAL BONE THE
HOLE WHERE THE WIRE WAS THREADED...
WHEN THE BONES WERE
ASSEMBLED FOR DISPLAY.
THEN WHERE IS THE
REST OF MY SAILOR?
HE WAS PLANTED IN THE SHAFT AT ASSATEAGUE
ISLAND TO MAKE THE TREASURE BUSINESS SEEM REAL.
BUT SOMEBODY FOUND OUT. WHO?
A MURDERER.
OKAY, LET ME SEE IF
I GET THIS STRAIGHT.
THE PIRATE BONES YOU RECOVERED CAME
FROM THE JEFFERSONIAN TO START WITH.
CORRECT. 300-YEAR-OLD BONES
STOLEN FROM OUR OWN PIRATE EXHIBIT.
AND THEN RECOVERED BY ONE OF
YOUR OWN PEOPLE? DR. HODGINS.
WHO BROUGHT THEM BACK TO THE
JEFFERSONIAN WHERE THEY WERE STOLEN AGAIN?
- RE-STOLEN, SIR.
- YOU GOT A SECURITY PROBLEM,
DR. GOODMAN.
WHEN I FIND OUT WHO DID THIS,
YOU HAVE A MURDER PROBLEM.
BUT I'M ON TOP OF IT, OKAY? YOU
DIDN'T HAVE TO COME DOWN HERE, SIR.
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT UNTIL I GOT A CALL
FROM SOMEONE AT THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE.
DEFENSE? HOW DO THEY FIGURE
INTO A MURDER INVESTIGATION?
BRANSON ROSE. HE HAS
FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES,
AND THEY DON'T LIKE IT WHEN THE GUY
WHO BUILDS THEIR BOMBERS IS UNHAPPY.
ARE THEY AFRAID HE'LL BOMB THEM?
WHAT IS THAT? SQUINT HUMOR?
'CAUSE I'M NOT LAUGHING.
DEFENSE DOESN'T NEED A REASON TO GO TO WAR,
AND I'M NOT ABOUT TO BE THEIR NEXT TARGET.
WE HAVEN'T RULED
ROSE OUT AS A SUSPECT.
OF COURSE NOT. YOU'RE TOO
BUSY LOOKING FOR YOUR BONES.
LET'S NOT MAKE THIS PERSONAL. ROSE
WANTS TO KEEP PLAYING IN THE MUD,
AND HIS BIG SHOT FRIENDS ARE
GOING TO SEE THAT THAT HAPPENS...
UNLESS WE COME UP
WITH SOME ANSWERS FAST.
AT THIS POINT, IT APPEARS AS IF
THE STOLEN 300-YEAR-OLD BONES...
ARE BEING USED TO, YOU
KNOW, SALT THE SHAFT.
"SALT THE SHAFT"? YEAH. YOU KNOW,
AN INVESTOR SPENDS A MILLION BUCKS.
HE GETS ANTSY WHEN NOTHING HAPPENS, AND
THEN... VOILÀ... YOU KNOW, PIRATE BONES APPEAR,
AND THE GOLDEN GOOSE
KEEPS... LAYING THOSE EGGS.
OKAY, THAT IS A CONVOLUTED
METAPHOR, BOOTH.
IT'S A HOAX, DR. BRENNAN.
LIKE PILTDOWN MAN.
OH, GOT IT. WHY CAN'T
YOU BE CLEAR LIKE THAT?
- ASSUME THE BONES WERE STOLEN...
- RE-STOLEN.
RE-STOLEN SO YOU WOULDN'T
FIND OUT THEY WERE BOGUS...
- HOW DID YOU?
- HOW DID I WHAT?
FROM THE FINGER. THEY DIDN'T
GET THE ENTIRE SKELETON.
WOULD YOU LIKE DR. BRENNAN TO
TAKE YOU THROUGH THE PROCESS?
I REALLY, REALLY WOULDN'T.
- SO WHO DO YOU LIKE?
- I LIKE THE PARTNER.
GILES HARDEWICKE.
ACCESS, MOTIVE, ABILITY.
DR. GOODMAN, THE F.B.I. WILL PROVIDE
WHATEVER HELP YOU NEED TO SOLVE...
YOUR BREACH OF SECURITY
AT THE JEFFERSONIAN.
YOU WORK THE, UH, PARTNER ANGLE.
WELL, MY FATHER WORKED THE
FISHING BOAT. HIS DAD BEFORE THAT.
HECK, ME AND MY BROTHER, WE
NEVER KNEW ANYTHING BUT THE SEA.
HUNTING FOR TREASURE JUST
SORTA GREW OUTTA THAT, I GUESS.
ANY REGRETS? SURE. MY BROTHER.
YEAH. YEAH.
THAT AND THE FACT THAT
THEY MIGHT SHUT US DOWN.
HEY, NOT IF WE FIND
SOMETHING, HUH?
YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA
TURN OUT TO BE JUST ANOTHER DESK JOCKEY.
YOU READ A FEW BOOKS AND WAS LOOKING FOR
SOMETHING TO BRIGHTEN UP HIS BORING LIFE.
TELL YOU WHAT. I'D BE DOWN
THAT SHAFT RIGHT NOW...
IF BIG BROTHER DIDN'T HAVE THE
MINIMUM TIME REQUIREMENT BETWEEN DIVES.
YOU DESERVE TO BE HERE.
YOU REALLY DO. THANKS FOR THAT.
I GUESS IT'S ALL
RIGHT TO TELL YOU.
THE BONES WERE PLANTED.
YOU DON'T SEEM SURPRISED.
MAN, NOTHING SURPRISES ME OUT
OF THAT GOSH DANG PIT ANYMORE.
NAH. I MEAN, YOU DIG DOWN FAR
ENOUGH, YOU'LL COME OUT IN HELL.
SO, UH, IF YOU
DON'T FIND ANYTHING,
ARE YOU GONNA SHUT US DOWN?
HEY, I'M NOT F.B.I.
I'M JUST A SCIENTIST.
IT'S A CRIME SCENE. I'M SURPRISED
THEY LET YOU DOWN HERE.
HEY, I'M AN EXPERT IN
SILT, PLANTS AND INSECTS.
THAT'S RIGHT. I GOT
THREE DOCTORATES. WHOA.
WHEN YOU GOT THREE
DOCTORATES AND YOU TELL THE F.B.I...
YOU NEED MORE SAMPLES,
WHO'S GONNA ARGUE?
ONE DOCTORATE, YEAH,
MAYBE THEY ARGUE, BUT THREE?
YOU WANNA GO BACK
DOWN AGAIN, DON'T YOU?
I COULD USE YOUR HELP, MAN.
YOU GOT THE BUG, MAN!
HEY, LIKE I SAID, I
AM THE BUG MAN.
IF YOU LOST THE BONES, HOW
DO YOU KNOW THEY'RE FAKE?
THEY DIDN'T GET EVERYTHING. AH. A
STROKE OF LUCK FOR THE GOOD GUYS.
WE WILL FIND OUT HOW THOSE BONES
WERE STOLEN FROM THE JEFFERSONIAN.
YOU STILL THINK I
DID IT, DON'T YOU?
WHY WERE YOU GOING TO
BREAK UP THE COMPANY?
LET ME GUESS. KATIE
NEY TOLD YOU THAT.
WHAT MAKES YOU
THINK IT WAS KATIE?
THAT WAS A STOCK PART OF MACY'S SEDUCTION
TECHNIQUE, AND IT WAS VERY EFFECTIVE.
"I RISK MY LIFE DOWN IN THAT HOLE
WHILE MY PARTNER STAYS SAFE TOPSIDE."
THAT'S HOW HE POSITIONED
HIMSELF AS THE HEROIC EXPLORER.
WHICH HE WAS, BY THE WAY,
WHEN IT CAME TO THE LADIES.
- YOUR PARTNERSHIP WAS INTACT?
- TILL DEATH DID US PART.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT. I'M GONNA GIVE
YOU GUYS FULL ACCESS TO THE BOOKS.
YOU DON'T EVEN NEED
A SEARCH WARRANT.
THERE'S NOT A SINGLE WAY IN WHICH
MY LIFE IS BETTER OFF WITHOUT MACY.
LIKE I SAID, I MISS THE MAN.
THE BONES WERE STOLEN TWICE. THE
FIRST TIME FROM THE PIRATE EXHIBIT.
THE SECOND TIME FROM THE BONE
ROOM HERE IN THE MEDICO-LEGAL LAB.
AND THE SECURITY IN THE LAB IS
TIGHTER SO THE CAMERA IS CONTINUOUS.
BUT THE CAMERA IN THE ROTUNDA IS
STOP-ACTION EVERY THREE SECONDS.
I STARTED WITH THE LAB THEFT...
BECAUSE WE KNOW THE BONES WERE
STOLEN BETWEEN 9:00 P.M. AND 6:00 A.M.
OKAY, WATCH... HERE.
THE BONES ARE GONE.
NOTICE THE TIME CODE.
- WHAT'S THAT?
- THE CAMERA WAS TURNED OFF.
THE CAMERA WAS TURNED OFF
FOR ONE MINUTE AND 46 SECONDS.
IT WOULD TAKE A LOT LESS TIME
THAN THAT TO ENTER THE ROOM...
AND GATHER UP THE
BONES AND ESCAPE.
NOW.
DR. GOODMAN? YES?
CAN I ASK, WHY ARE WE DOING THIS
INVESTIGATION INSTEAD OF SECURITY?
WE SHOULDN'T WALK TOO QUICKLY. IT WOULD
AROUSE SUSPICION. NEITHER WOULD OUR THIEF.
I'M HAPPY TO HELP, BUT WE DO HAVE
ACTUAL SECURITY PROFESSIONALS...
IS THERE ANY WAY TO TELL IF
THOSE TAPES HAVE BEEN DOCTORED?
YEAH. SINCE THEY'RE PHYSICAL
MAGNETIC TAPES, NOT STORED DIGITALLY.
I ALWAYS DID LIKE ANALOG
BETTER. NOW I KNOW WHY.
MY POINT IS, IS THAT I'M
ONLY AN AMATEUR AT THIS,
AND I'M SURE THE SECURITY DEPARTMENT
IS BETTER EQUIPPED AND TRAINED...
AFTERNOON, PAUL. BEST TO SUSAN
AND LAURA. I HOPE JOHNNY FEELS BETTER.
THANK YOU, DR. GOODMAN. OKAY, YOU
DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT. I GET IT.
SIR? HIT YOUR STOPWATCH,
PLEASE, MISS MONTENEGRO.
35.6 SECONDS.
DOUBLE THAT FOR A ROUND TRIP.
THAT'S ONE MINUTE, 10 SECONDS,
LEAVING APPROXIMATELY 30 SECONDS
TO BAG THE BONES AND GET BACK.
GET BACK WHERE?
OH. HUH. WOW, YOU
MUST THINK I'M AN IDIOT.
I WAS GRANDSTANDING.
I CAN BE LIKE THAT.
SO WE FIND OUT WHAT GUARDS WERE
ON DUTY DURING THE TWO THEFTS,
AND WE MIGHT HAVE OUR THIEF?
I DIDN'T SEE THE HARM.
IN STEALING HUMAN REMAINS?
AFTER 300 YEARS, IT'S NOT LIKE HE'S
GOT A FAMILY GRIEVING FOR HIM OUT THERE.
THINK OF ME AS A
GRIEVING PARENT.
- GRAND THEFT, BUDDY. YOU'RE LOOKING AT EIGHT YEARS.
- IF I DON'T KILL YOU.
COME ON. WHAT'S A BUNCH OF OLD
BONES LIKE THAT WORTH? NOTHING.
- HOW MUCH DID YOU GET FOR 'EM?
- A COUPLE OF HUNDRED BUCKS.
YEAH. SO THIS, UH...
WIRE TRANSFER INTO
YOUR BANK FOR 10 GRAND...
WAS THAT INHERITANCE?
WHO DID YOU STEAL THEM FOR?
WE DIDN'T REALLY DO THE
NAME EXCHANGE THING.
- SOMEBODY APPROACHED YOU?
- YEAH.
LET'S SEE. OKAY,
WHICH ONE WAS IT?
- WELL, WHICH TIME?
- THE FIRST TIME.
HIM. BUT HE LOOKED BETTER.
- AND THE SECOND TIME?
- UM, HIM.
OH, LOOK, GUYS, I'M
COOPERATING, ALL RIGHT?
I WILL GIVE BACK THE
MONEY. I WILL QUIT MY JOB.
HOW'S ABOUT WE JUST CALL IT
EVEN? HOW'S ABOUT WE CALL THE D.A.?
YOU NEED A BETTER SCREENING
PROCESS DOWN AT THE MUSEUM.
IRONIC, GIVEN WE CONTRACT
THAT OUT TO THE F.B.I.
♪♪ YOU THINK HE'S DANGEROUS?
GRAND THEFT, MURDER. YEAH.
THE MUSIC. SHH. IT'S DOWN THERE.
THAT'S NOT MUSIC.
IT'S BAGPIPES. WHOA.
♪♪
MR. HARDEWICKE?
MR. HARD... OH.
MAYBE WE'RE LOOKING
FOR SOMEONE ELSE.
THE LARYNX WAS CRUSHED.
IS THAT GOING TO BE YOUR
CAUSE OF DEATH RULING?
WE GONNA HAVE ANOTHER FIGHT
ABOUT THIS? I'M A PRETTY OPEN GUY.
BUT IF YOU KEEP PUSHING, IT'S GONNA
BE ME WHO SMACKS YOU AROUND.
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT WON'T
WORK FOR ME JUST AS WELL?
YOU RULED THAT MACY DIED
FROM A CRUSHED LARYNX.
A CRUSHED LARYNX IS FATAL.
ERGO, IT RESULTS IN DEATH.
YOU WERE WRONG THEN,
AND YOU'RE WRONG NOW.
- SEE? HE LIKES IT!
- I NEED TO SEE
BOTH SETS OF X-RAYS.
HIS AND MACY'S.
IT'S NOT ALWAYS ABOUT
BEING RIGHT OR WRONG.
IT'S ABOUT THE DIALOGUE.
AN INTENSE CONVERSATION CAN BE THE
MOST WONDERFUL KIND OF INTERCOURSE.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
THIS GUY IS A PERVERT.
DAMAGE BETWEEN C-2
AND C-4, 45-DEGREE ANGLE,
EXACT SAME PATTERN
OF INJURY AS MACY.
HIS HEAD WAS WRENCHED AROUND,
PROBABLY WHILE THE OTHER
HAND CRUSHED THE LARYNX.
THAT MUST REALLY FRUSTRATE
YOU THAT I MISSED THAT.
THAT'S A SPECIAL FORCES MOVE... TAKE THE SENTRY
DOWN, CRUSH THE LARYNX SO HE CAN'T SCREAM.
- YOU'VE DONE THAT TO PEOPLE?
- NO. OUR MURDERER
IS SPECIAL FORCES.
YOUR INTERNET BIO SAYS YOU
SPENT TIME IN SPECIAL AIR SERVICES.
MR. ROSE HAS LED A
DIVERSE AND FULL LIFE.
HOW DID YOU FEEL WHEN YOU FOUND
OUT THE DIG SITE HAD BEEN SALTED?
- I WAS DISAPPOINTED, CERTAINLY.
- JUST... DISAPPOINTED?
I WASN'T IRKED ENOUGH TO KILL TED MACY.
NOW, CAN WE GET TO THE POINT, PLEASE?
- WHAT IS SPECIAL AIR SERVICES?
- THE S.A.S. IS WIDELY
REGARDED...
AS ONE OF THE FINEST AND BEST-TRAINED
SPECIAL FORCES UNITS IN THE WORLD.
SEE ANY ACTIVE SERVICE?
MR. ROSE IS NOT COMFORTABLE

HEY, WE'LL JUST CONTACT
THE S.A.S. THEY'LL TELL US.

HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP THAT?
I DON'T KNOW. YOU KINDA

WELL, THIS ONE WON'T BE
A SURPRISE. YOU READY?

YOU WON'T GET INTO
TROUBLE FOR THIS.
THREE DEGREES. JUST
DOING SOME RESEARCH.
I AM TELLING YOU, SALTED OR NOT, THERE IS
SOMETHING AT THE BOTTOM OF THAT SHAFT.
NEVER GOT TO GO
ALL THE WAY DOWN.
THE BONES WERE LYING ON WOOD. I
WANT TO SEE WHAT'S UNDERNEATH.
ALWAYS THOUGHT IT'D
BE ME WHO'D FIND IT.
HEY, ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL,
RIGHT? THAT WAS THE THREE MUSKETEERS.

ALWAYS "PIRATEY" TO ME.
LET'S DO THIS. LET'S DO IT.

CHIEF PETTY OFFICER,
NAVAL SPECIAL WARFARE.
- OH, YEAH. HAD TO BE.

GUY WAS A NAVY SEAL.
SO? YOU WERE A GUIDE.
A RANGER. I WAS A
RANGER, BONES, OKAY?
I WAS NOT A GUIDE. GUIDES,
THEY SHOW YOU WATERFALLS.
THEY SELL YOU
COOKIES. I WAS A RANGER.
WHAT'S HE DOING AT THE SHAFT?
ARE RANGERS AFRAID OF SEALs?
WHAT? COME ON, BONES. NO.
RANGERS AREN'T AFRAID
OF ANYBODY. ALL RIGHT?
SEALs ARE PRETTY GOOD THOUGH.

YEAH? WELL, I NEED YOU TO
TOSS THAT GUN INTO THE SHAFT.

OTHERWISE, I AM GONNA CUT THIS
HOSE, AND YOUR BUDDY'S GONNA DIE.
YEAH. DO THAT. BONES.
- NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
- - IF YOU CAN HEAR ME, TUG ON THE AIR HOSE.
FEEL A BLAST OF COLD WATER.
IT'S EITHER A SPRING OR SOME
KIND OF CONDUIT FROM THE OCEAN.
IT'S CLEAR, CLEAN WATER,
SO VISIBILITY IS BETTER.
YOU KILLED TWO MEN. I CAN'T
JUST LET YOU DRIVE AWAY.
OH, THOSE GUYS.
PUTTIN' FAKE BONES IN THERE, MAKIN'
THE WHOLE THING INTO A CON JOB.
MY BROTHER DIED DOWN THERE
LOOKING FOR THAT TREASURE.
A LOT OF GOOD MEN DID.
THIS WAS THEIR LIFE. THOSE
MEN DISHONORED THEM.
DANE, CAN YOU HEAR ME,
MAN? I AM ON THE BOTTOM.
YOU GOOD ENOUGH TO TAKE THAT SHOT
BEFORE I CUT THIS AIR HOSE, RANGER?
- PRETTY GOOD.
- WHAT? JUST PRETTY GOOD?
PLEASE. I'M WORKING.
I'M GONNA NEED SOME MORE
SLACK IN THE LINE, DANE.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
I'LL GET A SAMPLE.
I CAN SEE WHERE THE SHAFT
WALL HAS COLLAPSED BEFORE.
OH, MY GOD! HOLY...
DAMN! CAN YOU SEE THIS, DANE?
- WHAT IS IT?
- WHY DON'T YOU TAKE A LOOK?
YEAH. I DO, AND YOU'LL SHOOT ME.
DANE! CAN YOU SEE THIS, MAN?
- IT'S A GOLD COIN.
- YEAH.
IT'S PROBABLY SOMETHING ELSE
THEY STOLE FROM THE MUSEUM.
THIS IS REAL! IT'S A BIG...
YOU WANT TO SEE IT, YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE TO BRING HODGINS UP. PLEASE.
HE'S DOWN THERE
BECAUSE HE BELIEVES.
HE'S NO DIFFERENT THAN YOU, NO
DIFFERENT THAN YOUR BROTHER.
- BRING HIM UP.
- DO IT FOR YOUR BROTHER.
AN ORIGINAL BREEN-984
HALF DOUBLOON...
DESIGNED BY EPHRAIM BRASHER,
ENGRAVED BY EPHRAIM BRASHER.
AND... HOLD YOUR BREATH,
GENTLEMEN AND LADIES... 204 GRAINS.
A REAL GOLD PIRATE COIN.
HOW MANY MORE ARE DOWN THERE?
BRANSON ROSE HAS AGREED TO HAVE THE MUSEUM
DO THE AUTHENTICATION OF THE ENTIRE TREASURE.
THERE WON'T BE ANY MORE.
WHAT MAKES YOU SAY THAT?
I WAS DOWN THERE. IT'S NOT
GONNA GIVE IT UP THAT EASILY.
BUT THE TREASURE'S BEEN LOCATED.
AND I'M SURE IT'S
BEEN LOCATED BEFORE.
I'LL TAKE THAT.
YOU THINK HE'S HAPPY
TO BE BACK HOME?
WELL, HE LOOKS THAT WAY TO ME.
- HE'S NOT HAPPY.
- WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
HODGINS IS RIGHT. HE'D BE A LOT
HAPPIER AT THE BOTTOM OF THAT SHAFT.
WITH THE OTHER PIRATES.
- ARRGH!
- ARRGH, MATEY!
ARRGH! ARRGH, MATEY!
WHAT'S THAT MEAN?
