Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Because I'm a very good writer.
Gary Tushman: You're serviceable, but your success is contingent on your image as a hot scientist chick.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: That's not true, is it?

Nasty and funny, 7 December 2008
8/10
Author: ctomvelu-1 from United States

A dissected body, minus head, is found in a waste water pool behind an old factory. It actually doesn't take long for the team to figure out who he was, but without the head, they are at a loss to figure out how he died. Turns out the stiff belonged to an author suffering from OCD, which ultimately figures into why he was killed. A fly and the number 12 lead to the solution. Meanwhile, the latest intern has trouble coping with the zany crew. A funny subplot has Booth suffering from back trouble, which Brennan keeps offering to alleviate. The opening revelation of the body is a bit gruesome. It also involves someone performing a certain bodily function that would have been unthinkable on TV a few years ago. Not for the faint of heart or the more delicate among us.
