Quotes

Angela Montenegro: Sweetie, this is not one of those things where you try to keep a secret and I ferret out the truth. This is where I tell you something that's true so you can catch up to your own reality.
Dr. Temperance Brennan: Angela, I have no idea what you are talking about.
Angela Montenegro: Which actually proves my point. I really I love you to bits and pieces, sweetie. I know, you love me back. We'll talk again when you catch up.

Eaten

So here wee go with the story arc involving cannibalistic killers. A skull is dropped off a highway overpass, hits a windshield, and leads the team to a secret vault that suggests people are being killed and eaten or vice versa, and possibly by more than one individual. This is the start of the adventures of killer who evidently belongs to a shadowy society for such killers, and frankly nothing could bore me more. I hope it will not have the same effect on you. The greatly missed Zach is back, by the way. We do get our first look at the cool-looking metal skeleton that will figure more prominently as this particular story arc unfolds.
