    Storyline

    Edit
    Sam Nozik's beetles-eaten corpse in a Florida glade is identified from his acrylic eye. He worked in a Miami museum, from which a treasure map to a Spanish galleon was stolen. Booth grudgingly allows his superstitious former foreign army tour acquaintance Walter Sherman (and his team of two) to use his 'tracing gift' to find and retrieve the treasure. They do, after consulting bishop Edward Galano on period navigation, and find the corpse, but meanwhile the diver herself has been murdered too. Booth meanwhile comes to terms with his grudge against Walter as 'insensitive' MP. —KGF Vissers

    • Quotes

      Walter Sherman: Are you rich?

      Dr. Jack Hodgins: Hey! Where did that come from?

      Walter Sherman: On a scale of 1 to 10 - she's an 11.

      Angela Montenegro: Well, thank you, Mr. Sherman.

      Walter Sherman: Yet, you're a 7. So if you're rich. It just explains the discrepancy.

      Dr. Jack Hodgins: Really.

    Great writing and direction
    As a die hard Bones fan, I'd have to say that I was very pleased to see the Jeffersonian team shaken out of its comfort zone. I was jazzed to find out that there is a spin off in the works. There is plenty of TV for many shows out there folks. Get a DVR.

    The acting was excellent. The writing and direction was fresh and clever. The fictitious Dr Brennan would want you all to use some objectivity and let the episode stand on its own merits, and in doing so I give this episode a 10.

    Plenty of TV shows successfully take a different approach to some episodes. Different points of view, directing styles or even Ryan O'Neill adds dimension and flavor to the show.
