Bones
Season 2 Episode 3
The Man in the Charity Shop
"Bones, over here," Booth shouted signalling to her. She reached the table in the main lab and just stared at the bin bags, "Booth, in case you didn't notice I'm a forensic anthropologist."
"Yeah actually I did, you tell everyone we…why are we having this conversation?"
"I'm not a janitor, when you called you said you had a job for me, I…I don't clean up trash."
"Just look in the bags," he told her, passing her some gloves. She rooted through pulling out clothes and books. A puzzled look spread across her face as she opened a package that was mixed in with the rest of the stuff. "They were donated to a local charity store."
Brennan held up some bones, "What kind of weirdo gives somebody's remains to charity?"
"Ah, well you see, it's your job to find out," Booth answered, noticing Zack entering the room. The same look spread across his face as he approached and picked up a rather large pair of knickers. "Nice underwear Zack," Hodgins added, joining them, "so, has anyone bothered to call Agent Ellis?" They all went silent and to everyone's surprise Brennan lifted her hand up innocently. "Good to know you girls are getting along," Booth said, hurrying his partner back to work. A few moments later, they had managed to remove the bin bags and separate the junk and the bones. "So, why exactly are we doing this?" Hodgins asked for the third time in ten minutes. "Because," she started, "the FBI didn't think to give us the parts we needed and threw the whole lot in." Booth, who would have usually defended the bureau, spotted Trinity walking towards Brennan's office. "Yeah, sure," he said, clearly not paying attention, as he had headed towards his fellow agent.
Trinity entered Brennan's office, hoping Booth would be there. She picked up a file off the desk, rather disappointed that no one had stopped her. "Hey" a familiar voice welcomed her. "God, Seeley. Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" she asked, spinning round. "Bones said she called you. I'm glad you two are friends, I mean with what happened"
"Yeah, whatever" she said, ignoring him completely "Have you seen the others? I can't find them anywhere." Booth couldn't help but laugh, after all a few moments ago she had walked straight past the Squint Squad, without even registering that they were there. "You didn't look very hard did you?" he asked opening the door. "What's that supposed to…" before she could finish the sentence Booth pointed out the scientists on the main platform. "Oh" she replied, with a slightly embarrassed smile "I guess I'm not too observant today" They stood in the doorway for the next ten minutes, discussing the case and as usual, Booth added jokes when he felt it was necessary. "I've got some files I need signing, so call me when you've got something" she told him, heading out of the room. "You make it sound like I'm one of the squints" he laughed. Trinity gave him a cheeky smile, as she left to do her own work.
