All language subtitles for Bones S05E21 The Boy With The Answer

Help me! Help me!

Hodgins!

Help me!

Hodgins!

Dr. Brennan! Dr. Brennan!

Hodgins!

Hodgins!

Bones!

Booth!

Booth!

Stay with me.

Booth!

Help!

The Gravedigger case finally begins today,
with an evidentiary hearing.

The defendant, prominent
Federal Prosecutor Heather Taffet,

will be defending herself against

multiple charges
of kidnapping and murder.

One charge involves
10-year-old Terrence Gilroy,

who has never been found.

Testimony is expected
from three kidnapping victims,

Seeley Booth, an agent with the FBI,

as well as scientists Jack Hodgins,

and Temperance Brennan, of the...

You okay, Bones?

Of course. Why wouldn't I be?

Well, we're about to come head to head

with the woman
who tried to kill both of us.

So are you. Are you okay?

Sure. Yeah. You know, just checking in.
Just wanna make sure you're okay,

and if you need anything, I'll...

- It's just another case, Booth.
- Right.

- Dad.
- Max.

Well, what are you doing here?

Just thought you should have
a little support,

from somebody who's been through
the legal system a few times.

Why is everyone treating me like a child?

Because I don't want you
to get your hopes up.

This is far from a slam dunk.

That's exactly why
Caroline is here.

Right. We have five cases, multiple counts.

Bones, Hodgins, the 10-year-old boy...

Whose body has never been found.

Your prosecutor's getting desperate.

Max, she knows what she's doing, okay?

I thought you were here for support, Dad.

Okay, we all ready to play nice?

Always, Your Honor.

Your Honor, since I'm representing myself,

I'd like to request that my shackles
be removed while I'm in court.

This is only an evidentiary hearing,
Your Honor, there's no jury to prejudice.

And, frankly, I feel a bit more secure
with her in chains.

Spare us the dramatic flourishes,
Miss Julian.

When we go to trial,
we can re-visit the request, Miss Taffet.

First witness.

Burn marks were found

on the victims
that were consistent with injuries

one would sustain
from a three million volt stun gun.

Stun gun was found
in the suspect's storage locker.

It matches the stun gun
that was used in the attack on me.

The suspect's steel-toed boots
were also found in the storage locker.

This storage locker was found with
information obtained illegally, wasn't it?

We didn't know that at the time,
Your Honor.

We obtained a legal warrant
to search the locker.

The fact that Agent Booth's brother
gave you the lead

didn't make you suspicious?

He was an officer
assigned to Homeland Security.

We had no reason to question
the information he provided.

The warrant was obtained without malice.

That's irrelevant, Your Honor.

Everything found in that storage locker
should be dismissed.

I submit that a warrant
wasn't even necessary.

Under precedent of imminent danger,

law authority had the duty to enter that
storage locker without a valid warrant.

Agent Booth's life was in danger.

Imminent danger applies only if
law enforcement hears a violent threat

or struggle at the scene.

I'm sorry, Miss Julian,
but no matter how pure the intention,

the warrant was obtained illegally.

Therefore, any and all evidence gathered
during the search and seizure

is inadmissible.

Thank you, Your Honor.

This was not a personal favor,
Miss Taffet.

I am restrained by the law.

I'd like to move
that all charges be dropped, Your Honor.

You'd like that, wouldn't you?

We still have dirt samples
from the crime scene.

The ransom tapes.

Your Honor, this is a waste of the
court's time and the taxpayers' money.

If I lose,
I'll send everyone a note of apology.

You aren't left with much, Miss Julian.

Are you sure you want to proceed?

Yes, Your Honor.

Okay. The charges stand.

We're going to trial. Court is adjourned.

You're so brilliant, Dr. Brennan.

Why couldn't you find something
as simple as the number?

Come on.

You all right? What'd she say to you?

- She says I missed some evidence.
- Evidence?

She doesn't think I can find it.

Booth is getting her arrest records

as well as old case files
from when she was a prosecutor.

Okay, I'm pulling every record we have
so far associated with Taffet.

Social Security numbers,
birth dates, blood test results.

- Ages of the victims?
- Got those.

Now I'm using
a recursive search algorithm,

which analyzes
and cross references the data.

Since they're related,
any inconsistencies can raise a red flag.

I think Taffet is just messing with us again.

No, I have to disagree.
I mean, her pathology's consistent.

This is all a game to her.

She won the first round,
so now she's upping the stakes

by challenging Dr. Brennan.

Yeah, or maybe she knows
there's something

in the soil samples we already have,
so she's just trying to distract us.

You analyzed those soil samples
100 times.

Are you telling me to give up, Sweets?

No. Of course not.

But, I mean, I understand
the need to cling to anything...

Cling? Okay, so I'm crazy now?

- That's not what I meant.
- Go, Dr. Hodgins.

Look at the soil again.
You might find something.

You know, he still gets nightmares.
Says he wakes up in a sweat.

I should've been more sensitive.

This must be difficult for you, too.
If you need any...

I'm fine. What about the weight
and size of the victims' remains?

Yeah. That's a good idea. I'll check it out.

Here are the first set
of documents you asked for.

More numbers
than I've ever seen in my life.

Right. Thanks. You okay?

You mean
because this case is a career killer?

I'm cute. I can always find a job.

Come on, look, they're gonna come up
with something, they always do, right?

Do you really believe that, ch�ri?

Well, they saved my life, remember?
That was impossible.

I'll give you that one.
So how's your girlfriend holding up?

She's fine. And she's not my girlfriend.

Oh! So those little looks between you...

Nothing.

Right.
I hope you're more believable on the stand.

Have Angela run these numbers
as quickly as she can.

The judge isn't gonna give me
more than a day.

If I don't receive the money

in the numbered account
within eight hours,

your child will die.

This is the last time you will hear from me.

There will be no further communications.

What happened to the numbers?

Well, I came up dry.

Brennan and Booth
are compiling another set.

But, until then, I'm trying to drag
Taffet's voice from these ransom tapes.

- Well, any luck?
- Well, she used a variable band inversion,

so the wave is broken up
into hundreds of small sections,

each section scrambled
with different frequency sequencing.

You didn't ask me if I found anything new
in the soil samples.

- Did you?
- No. Of course not.

Sweets was right. You knew that.

I'm barely keeping it together here, Ange.

Well, you were sane enough to marry me.

I don't feel strong enough
to tell anybody yet.

I feel like she's still got me locked up,
you know?

I mean, when I see her, there's just this

anger, I mean, this
kind of helplessness that...

I know, I know.

When I was buried in that car,

I didn't think
I was ever gonna see you again.

And now I feel like
she's still in between us.

Well, she's not.

Look at me.

She's not.

Nobody can get between us.

Come on, Bones,
you've been at it for hours.

- You gotta eat something.
- In a little while.

Her old court documents
from when she was a prosecutor have

case numbers, criminal code numbers
and then there are zip codes.

Well, that's great and all.

But you know what?
Not gonna be any good

if you starve yourself to death.

She was laughing at me, Booth.
I can't let her win.

She won't.

You hope.
She may be amoral, but she is brilliant.

Well, you're more brilliant.

What if her dispassion
makes her more logical?

What if that gives her
an advantage over me?

Wait a second. Now you're upset because

you're not more like a psychopath?

I just think maybe I've lost my advantage
because of all the people

I'm involved with now.

All of the relationships,
they complicate logical thought.

You don't mean that.

Could we please just work?

Sure.

Salt Lake City?

- What?
- When they arrested Taffet,

she used her one phone call from jail
to Salt Lake City.

Area code 801.

Well, she's representing herself,
so it couldn't be to a lawyer.

Who would she call in Salt Lake City?

Larry's Pizza.
How may I help you?

None of the employees at the pizza place
have a connection with Taffet.

None of them here
have any criminal record.

The phone records show
that Taffet hung up after 10 seconds.

She didn't request another call.

Well, Angela's matching the number
with a numerical sequencing program.

This is the number, Booth.
This has to be the number.

So I'm running
a numerical sequencing program

to see if there's a match
with any of our victims.

But I'm coming up with nothing.

Oh, my God.
The number is a GPS location.

Let's go. Everybody out.

Oh, God.

Oh, God.

It's the kid, isn't it?

Terrence Gilroy had a remodeled
right ulna from a break when he was eight.

This is the boy she kidnapped.

I'm gonna call the parents.

Why did she
lead us here, Booth?

Why did she want us to find him?

- Hands off!
- Ma'am.

- No one touches a thing.
- What are you talking about?

This is our chance to get
some hard evidence they can't dismiss.

Not if you touch it.

You can't act
as an expert witness in a case

when you are also a victim.

We aren't victims in this crime.

We filed one complaint with seven counts.

Since the trial started, you and
Dr. Brennan are linked to all the crimes.

That's why Taffet wanted us
to find the boy.

She knows we're the only people

who have the skills to connect her
to the crime.

And now our hands are tied.

Not if you drop our case.

Excuse me?

If Caroline doesn't prosecute
our kidnappings,

we'd be free to testify
as expert witnesses in the boy's case.

- You'd be willing to do that?
- No. No.

Caroline has to prosecute our case.
Taffet tried to kill us.

All of our evidence has been thrown out.

The rational thing to do is pursue a case
with fresh untainted evidence.

Are you kidding me?

Is it really that easy for you
to forget what happened to us?

I will never forget what happened to us,
or to Booth, or this boy.

You are not the only one suffering,
Dr. Hodgins.

But your emotions have no relevance.
Not if we wanna convict Taffet.

This better work.

I'll have the charges dismissed
in the morning.

You can start right after that.

All right, so the Gilroy kid, he was last
seen at Rockland Mall on June 23.

I'm gonna check all of Taffet's
credit card records for that day, too.

Well, Caroline said
you can't give expert testimony

if she's prosecuting your case.

I told Caroline to drop my charges, too.

I'm not gonna let you do this alone.

She's gonna see the judge
tomorrow morning at 10:00,

and then we can dive in on all this.

Thanks, Booth.

We're partners. That's what we do.

Right?

If Taffet is acquitted on this count,
she can never be tried again.

I mean, maybe that's why
she wanted us to find the boy.

Yeah, well, she's arrogant.

Like Sweets said.
And she's misjudging you.

I have nightmares, Booth.

Hodgins is bleeding. You're drowning.

I can't help anyone.

Look, all right. You know what?

She's never gonna get the better of you,
all right? Just know that.

All right, I promise, okay?

These are perimortem fractures

bilaterally on the fifth,
sixth and seventh ribs,

on the posterior axillary lines.

And injuries to the greater cornu,

and the left lateral thyroid
and cricoid cartilages.

I see injuries like this
in victims who've been strangled.

Perhaps he struggled
and Taffet was trying to subdue him.

Taffet tasered all her victims.
Three million volts.

That should be enough to knock out
a 10-year-old boy for at least a few hours.

He wasn't unconscious.
These are defensive wounds,

consistent with the boy resisting
being placed in the freezer,

arms outstretched.

I'll take samples from under his fingernails.

Maybe he scratched her
during the struggle.

Maybe she knew the facts in this case

wouldn't be consistent
with the other crimes.

And would give her reasonable doubt.

We have evidence
from credit card charges

that the defendant
was at the Rockland Mall

on the day that
Terrence Gilroy was abducted.

The team at the Jeffersonian discovered
that the number that Taffet called

turned out to be
the same GPS coordinates

as to where the boy was buried.

Same MO, same ransom tape,
same demands as the other kidnappings.

Do you have any evidence that the Gilroy
boy was abducted from the mall?

It was the last place he was seen.

So, no.

Did anyone else make any purchases
at the mall that day or was it just me?

Of course they did.

As for the phone call that I allegedly made,

is it possible that the number
was placed in my file by mistake?

- Objection. Conjecture.
- Sustained.

Did you know that the officer on duty the
night I was arrested was from Salt Lake?

Answer the question, Agent Booth.

- No.
- Isn't it more likely that

he made that call and the number
was placed in my file by mistake?

Objection. Conjecture again.

I thought it was reasonable doubt.
Very reasonable.

- Your Honor...
- Withdrawn.

No further questions, Your Honor.

You know that Taffet's playing you, right?

We're fine, Max.

No, she's got you all on defense.

- We got the boy, all right.
- That's 'cause she wanted you to.

Every psycho takes one step too far
and hangs themselves.

Not before a lot of innocent people
get hurt.

I'll see you later.

Hey, sorry to bother you.
You have a minute?

Yeah, sure.

- How's it going?
- I don't know, actually.

That's why I'm here.

I'm worried, Dr. Sweets.

This case is taking its toll on everyone.

- Including you?
- Including me, yes.

That's a very stressful situation.
I mean, you're not immune to that.

I feel like
everything's fraying around the edges.

We're all searching for some piece
of evidence that can put Taffet away.

But we keep coming up empty.
Everyone feels manipulated by her.

And I should be able to pull everyone
together, keep them on track.

You wanna guarantee the outcome?

I wish that were possible.

But, you know, we knew this
was gonna be an uphill battle.

But did we really believe that?

We all knew she was guilty,
so, someplace

we assumed that in a just world
she'd pay for what she did.

That assumes a just world, I'm afraid.

These are my people she hurt. My friends.

I should be able to do something.

I know.

Max! You didn't think
I was gonna follow you?

Max, is this what you want?

Don't trust the system, Booth.

You miss,
you compromise the case and Taffet walks.

I don't miss.

When are you gonna learn
to stop messing with me, huh?

You're making a big mistake.

Tempe could die.

Yeah, come on.

He tried to kill her?

Well, he had a rifle pointed right at her,
so you do the math.

Why? Why would he do that?

To protect you.
And a career criminal like Max,

he obviously
doesn't trust the legal system.

I'm sorry, Booth. I wish he were different.

Yeah, me, too.
You know, he socked me in the eye, too.

- Brennan.
- Hey, honey, I need you to bail me out.

What? No, Dad!

I was doing it for you.

No, I don't want you to kill people for me.

Just, buy me a sweater like a regular dad.

Leave her alone, Max.

Booth says you're not getting out
until after the trial's over.

- I have to go.
- I've got a bad back.

You know what the beds are like in jail.

Goodbye, Dad.

Look, I'm sorry, Bones.

I'm sure this is the last thing
you wanna deal with.

Yeah.

A part of me wishes he'd done it.

Yeah, well, not the good part.
So, let's just keep our eye on the ball.

So, any news about the boy?

I'm getting an accurate recreation
of the assailant

from the fracture patterns on his remains.
And it's a match for Taffet.

I'm putting a presentation
together for court.

The kid, he put up a good fight, huh?

There's evidence of strong resistance. Yes.

Yeah, at least he didn't go easy.

Parker. He'd do the same thing.
Probably bite her ear off and run.

- What? He'd bite her?
- Yeah.

Ten-year-olds, it's kind of their thing.

Bite.

I have to get back to the lab.

If the boy bit her,
there should be some evidence on his

maxilla, mandible or his teeth.

The teeth
seemed to have been cleaned.

Taffet probably wiped them off.

The second left premolar is chipped.

There might be some trace
in the abrasion,

maybe some tissue from Heather Taffet.

Saliva contains amylase,
it would've broken down any bits of tissue.

Not if it were embedded between
the teeth or under the gum line.

If I don't receive the money

in the numbered account
within eight hours,

your child will die.

This is the last...

This encryption is a rolling code,
split band voice inversion.

Individual frequencies between the clicks,
are inverted and recombined.

I applied software

that decrypts
each of the 423 separate segments,

until the voice becomes clear.

If I don't receive the money

in the numbered account
within eight hours,

your child will die.

This is the last time
you will hear from me.

- There will be no further communications.
- You did it, Angela.

It's Taffet.

I'd like to see her explain away that one.

If I don't receive the money in
the numbered account within eight hours,

your child will die.

This is the last time you will hear from me.

There will be no further communications.

And in your expert opinion,
Miss Montenegro, whose voice is that?

It's Heather Taffet.

The frequency and vocal patterns
are an exact match,

when compared to unencrypted recordings
of her voice.

Thank you. No further questions.

That was very impressive,
Miss Montenegro.

Could you share
your credentials with the court?

I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts
from the University of Texas,

with a minor in computer science.

And I've also studied
biomedical illustration

at American University.

But you do not have a degree
in sound engineering, is that correct?

- No.
- Objection. Miss Montenegro

has numerous patents pending

from her work
in auditory forensic reconstruction.

The homeless man on my street
has a patent pending for a time machine.

That doesn't mean
I'm gonna ask him to testify in court.

That's enough, Miss Taffet.

Do you have anything else
for this witness?

Yes, Your Honor,
I'd like to introduce into evidence,

item 461-B,

which is a deconstruction
of the same ransom tape

by former FBI Special Agent
Graham Steele,

who has a PhD
in Forensic Auditory Analysis

from the University of Pennsylvania.

If I don't receive the money in
the numbered account within eight hours,

your child will die.

That isn't me.

He obviously manipulated the pitch
and the timbre of the voice.

Isn't that what you did?

No. Those sound waves have an underlying
pattern of frequency modulation,

like a fingerprint.

Whatever the technical jargon,

it seems clear that anyone,
even someone without any credentials,

can make one voice sound like another.

Objection! Counsel is making speeches.

- Sustained.
- I'm sorry, Your Honor.

No further questions.

Hey, Bones, you ready for court?

Yes, I have a video presentation,

which shows the victim
sustained rib fractures

as well as a fracture
of the lateral epicondyle of the left distal...

What do you say we ease up
on that scientific stuff, okay?

The science gives us
the height of the assailant,

162 centimeters, Taffet's height.

That's good and all,
but Taffet's kind of had a field day,

you know, trashing the whole
technical goobely stuff.

And the jury seemed to like her for it.

But those are the facts.

It's how you present the facts
that win or lose a case.

Bones, the jury needs to know
what that little boy went through.

I've testified before, Booth.

I'll be fine. We should go.

Okay.

Terrence Gilroy's left greater cornu
of the hyoid was compressed,

indicating that the assailant

strangled the young boy
using only one hand.

The dominant left hand, in this case.

I'd like to submit writing samples which
confirm the defendant is left-handed.

No objection,
as long as it's also noted

that eight percent of
the general population is also left-handed,

including you, Your Honor.

Continue.

The victim sustained a fracture
of the lateral epicondyle and the shaft

of the left distal humerus.

Perhaps I can be clearer.

Terrence Gilroy's bones
could only have been broken

by someone kneeling on top of him
as they pushed him into the freezer.

The radiating fracture lines show

that this assailant had to be
between 125-135 pounds.

The weight of the defendant.

Objection. This is speculation.

Are you questioning my qualifications?

Because you will not find
a more experienced

or respected forensic anthropologist
anywhere in the world.

So I'd appreciate not being
interrupted until I finish testifying.

Dr. Brennan,

I'll make the rulings here.

Overruled. Continue.

Since these broken bones
were caused by the assailant's knees,

and the chipping on
the boy's kneecaps was caused

by the toes of her heavy boots,

we can determine the length of her shin.

And what is the significance
of the shin length?

It gives us the height of the assailant.
Which is 5'4".

The same height as the defendant.

It is clear from the circumstantial evidence
and these facts that this child

was attacked with vicious cruelty
by Miss Taffet.

Objection. The jury makes
that determination, not the witness.

The 5'4" assailant

crushed the boy's chest,

choked him and finally caused him
a torturous death by burying him alive.

Objection! Speculation.
She can't know what the witness felt.

I was buried alive.

Which makes me uniquely qualified
to comment on its horror.

Objection, Your Honor.
This is grandstanding.

Unless the witness has
any additional facts...

Sustained.

Do you have any further questions
for Dr. Brennan, Miss Julian?

No, Your Honor.
I learned everything I need to know.

Your witness.

Dr. Brennan,
don't you think your trauma

as a kidnapping victim
prevents you from being objective?

Objection.
She is testifying as an expert witness,

not a victim.

She brought up being buried alive,
Your Honor.

She did, Miss Julian.

Overruled.

It's only natural that you would want to

construct facts that would
give you some closure and peace.

I resent your implication.

I do not let my emotions
cloud my findings.

No, not intentionally, of course.

Is there a question coming?

Yes. Sorry.

Dr. Brennan, you are currently
seeing an FBI psychologist, are you not?

What? That has nothing to do with...

A yes or no is all that's required,
Dr. Brennan.

Are you currently seeing
an FBI psychologist?

- Yes, but...
- Thank you. No further questions.

No, that has nothing to do with this case.

My findings are sound.

- You may step down, Dr. Brennan.
- My findings are sound.

A dust mite?

So that little bug is gonna save us?

Don't call him a bug. It sounds insulting.

We re-examined the boy's teeth

and found it wedged between
the right lateral incisor and canine.

Dust mites eat dead human skin cells.

And this one's stomach sac is full.

If the boy bit Taffet,
the skin cells are probably hers.

Whatever's left is gonna be small,
but there might be enough to give us DNA.

This is a Dermatophagoides farinae.

For those of us who don't speak insect,
what is that exactly?

It's a dust mite.
An insect found on clothes,

but it also feeds on the cells
of the person wearing those clothes.

And where was
this dust mite found?

Between Terrence Gilroy's teeth.

It was transferred there when the boy
bit the person who kidnapped him.

And how do we know that?

The dust mites contained human
female epithelial cells.

We extracted those cells and ran them
through several DNA databases.

The cells belong to Heather Taffet.

Nothing further, Your Honor.

Your witness, Miss Taffet.

It seems that you have neglected
to include a sample

of the evidence
that I could have tested independently.

Since there were so few cells in the mite,

the testing destroyed the sample.

But the procedures and results
are all contained in our documentation.

Let me get this right.
I have access to your notes,

but I can't examine the actual evidence
because you destroyed it?

Your Honor, in California v. Trombetta,

the Supreme Court ruled
that the prosecution

could destroy a sample to test for DNA
because there was no bad faith.

Bad faith?

The motives of every single person
at the Jeffersonian are suspect.

And now, their only physical evidence
is gone, if it existed at all.

I've just about had it with your snide
unsubstantiated allegations.

- As have I.
- That's enough, Miss Julian.

Your Honor,
I would like to file a motion to have

this unverifiable DNA evidence dismissed.

Protocol has been followed, Miss Taffet.

It's up the jury to decide

how the evidence will figure
in the outcome of this case.

Your motion is denied.

Did you see Taffet's face?
She was completely blindsided, okay?

Caroline's closing is gonna kill.

All right, so, here we go. That's it. Huh?

You okay, Bones?
Your team just nailed Taffet.

I'm just tired.

Yeah. Yeah. It's been a tough case.

It's not just the case.

I'm tired of all of it.

I'm tired of dealing with murderers
and victims and sadness and pain.

Bones, that's what we do.
All right, we catch the bad people.

And we make the world a better place.

No, Booth. That's what you do.
And, somehow, I got caught up into it.

Wait a second. Hold on.

You were dealing with dead people
long before we got together.

As a researcher. An anthropologist.

That's how I can make
the world a better place.

And you do. Come on.
You make the world a great place.

Cheers to that. All right.

You're just anxious.

All right. And tomorrow, when
we have won, everything will be perfect.

You'll be fine.

We are here to seek justice
for this 10-year-old boy,

who was kidnapped,

brutally beaten and buried alive
by Heather Taffet.

Taffet was seen
where this child was abducted.

She matches the size of the assailant.
She's left-handed.

Her voice was discovered
on the ransom tapes.

It all sounds very reasonable, doesn't it?

These so-called facts
were compiled by people who themselves

were victims of a vicious criminal
who has not yet been caught.

They need a scapegoat.

But only Heather Taffet could have the
DNA that was found in this child's mouth.

That evidence was delivered to us
in death by this brave boy.

And yet, the only people
who saw that dust mite,

the only people who touched
the alleged epithelial cells,

were two kidnap victims.

One, a known conspiracy theorist.

The other, a traumatized anthropologist

who's currently being treated
by a psychologist.

And Dr. Saroyan

who couldn't perform her job
without destroying the evidence.

Conveniently preventing me
from mounting a defense.

Because she has no defense
except slandering these experts.

They have told you
what Heather Taffet did to that boy.

The law is clear.

You cannot convict a person
based on innuendo

or groundless accusations.

I weep for that boy.
No child should suffer like that.

And whoever did this...

...should never be allowed to walk
among decent people again.

For that boy,

for justice, you must return a verdict of...

...not guilty.
Because it's clear that I am a scapegoat.

I'm innocent.

Thank you.

What'd I tell you, huh?
Caroline nailed it in there.

Taffet was pretty convincing in there, too.

You know what, Hodgins?
You ever see the bright side in things?

You know what, Booth?
You're right.

Because no matter what happens in there,
I've got Angela.

Hodgins?

It's okay. I don't care, Angie.

No. Taffet's not gonna
make the rules anymore.

I want our friends to know.
I want everybody to know.

Angela and I are married.

- All right.
- What?

Hey, look at that!

When, Ange?

In jail. Hodgins wanted to wait
until this was over

so everybody could be happy for us.

This isn't another pregnancy scare, is it?

No. No, this is love.

So why were you hiding this from us?

Uh, I was having trouble
dealing with things because of the trial.

But then I thought, "Screw it."

The jury's back.

I've seen enough to know
I've seen enough

Seen enough to know

The defendant will rise
for the reading of the verdict.

In count one,
the kidnapping of Terrence Gilroy,

the jury finds the defendant,
Heather Taffet, guilty.

Order, or I will clear the court.

In count two,
the murder of Terrence Gilroy,

the jury finds the defendant

guilty.

The defendant is remanded into custody
until sentencing.

We are adjourned.

This isn't over.

Once more into the crowd

Temptation wears you out

Go home, your heart too loud

Always alone

Yeah!

I was out of town
for a couple of days.

Well, I knew Tempe
had everything under control.

- She didn't need me.
Uh-huh.

All right, let's just raise our glasses here.
To the squints, okay?

- To Booth.
- And Caroline.

- Here, here!
- Hey!

You know, I never doubted any of you,
not for a minute.

- Where'd you come from?
- Come on.

Oh, please.

Let's not forget the happy couple
over here.

Yes, best wishes for a successful blending
of familial obligations,

as well as monetary
and property consolidation.

What?

I guess I'll go home.

A real bed is probably gonna feel good.

I am sorry that I doubted you.

Sweets would say that subconsciously
you wanted Booth to catch you,

so you and I
wouldn't have to be separated again.

Smart guy, that Sweets.

I love you, honey.

Thanks for leaving me
with the bill again.

- That's nice of you.
- Your fault, Booth.

- My wallet got stolen in jail. Bye.
- Yeah.

I can't believe they actually got hitched.

I know.

Thank you, guys. Thank you.

I have the sense
that everything is changing, Booth.

Not everything.
Look, we're still partners, right?

And Taffet, she's put away. I mean,
you're feeling good about that, right?

You almost died, Booth.

It can happen again.
What if next time I can't get to you?

It's not gonna happen again.

I envy your ability to
substitute optimism for reality.

You know what? Maybe
you just need to take some time off.

Go to a beach, lay in the sun.

I might need more than a little time.

Don't make any decisions
about your future right now.

I am just saying...

You know when the dentist
gives you anesthetic

and tells you not to operate
any heavy machinery

or make any important decisions
within 24 hours?

All right, this case was bigger
than a root canal.

Come on, let's just go back inside
and have one more drink for the road.

- Come on, just one.
- I am tired, Booth. I am gonna go home.

All right, come on.
Let's get you in the cab.

I know. It's been a long, long day.

Get in there. All right.

Hey, I'll see you tomorrow, right?
