10/10

Different but good.

This episode of Bones is different in that there isn't a typical crime to solve. But the team still comes together to solve the mystery. It shows great moments between multiple team members and there is also an interesting mystery to work on. I have watched every episode of Bones and this is definitely one of my favorite.
