Storyline

A generally disliked member of Max Keenan's bowling team's corpse is found as a decomposing mess in the cones machinery when that renovated section is reopened, but he was knocked dead a week earlier. Booth, good at the game, and Bones go undercover as new team members to study players and staff, which yields lots of grim grudges. Wendell has a hard time standing in, with online assistance, for Angela, who finally gives birth.

User Reviews

Another accidental pregnancy

Well first we finally have Angelas and Hodgins accidental baby and everything turned out alright. Cute kid, not blind although we all knew it wouldn't be, the writers just have to throw in some extra drama for suspense. Last week it was Nigel-Murray getting killed. As for Brennan getting pregnant, please, so much for the brilliant scientist(most brilliant in the world according to her) that doesn't even know about contraception. What kind of idiot has unprotected sex these days? She most likely would been on the pill to prevent this kind of thing from happening. One time with Booth, now pregnant. I guess he's so fertile that nothing can stop his reproduction. Look forward for a miscarriage near the end of the season. More drama. Seems to me she was kinda promiscuous in earlier seasons and had more than one sexual relationship and she even bragged about them to Angela and how she never intended to get married and never got pregnant. What's next. Sweets and Daisy with and unexpected pregnancy? Or how about Cameron, maybe she'll get pregnant and marry the dude so her almost daughter will have a daddy. Seem like nobody at the Jeffersonion can keep it in their pants.
