Storyline

Bones meets Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan, an ex of Booth and recently created the first-ever head of forensics at the Jeffersonian, at the site of a train/car crash with three fatalities, including US senator Paula Davis and Wall Street tycoon Warren Lynch, who was dead at least six hours earlier, and whose firm Lynchpin International was about to face SEC proceedings, likely to make his stock plummet - an opportunity for stock short-selling worth many millions. Lynch was also on Mexican heroin with the boosting narcotic fentanyl and found out as serially unfaithful by his wife Brianna. Lynch's P.I. Rick Turco says he was hired to investigate a yet unknown blackmailer. Booth traces the heroin to petty dealer Eddie Bean. Vince McVicar, the pig farmer who killed Bones' mother, is himself murdered in jail; his killer admits to have been hired by her own father, Max Keenan.

Special Agent Seeley Booth: Right there. Mm-hm. That's the reason you didn't get Cam's job.

Hey Bones Booth pod!!!

This was a great premiere episode. I will miss Dr. Goodman but sooo excited to see Cam. I love how her character is tough but fair and is fiercely loyal right away. I enjoy some good mac n cheese but everyday is just too much Zackaroni. Booth's line "Oh like a jar. Why can't we just say a jar" so funny. The first appearance of the Royal Diner! I need to hear the story of why everyone in unison says no to Zack being a trial witness lol.
