Booth returns an hour later to Brennan's office. They discuss the death of the current 7 victims they have identified.
"Okay so let me get this straight. Each girl was stabbed in the back 3 times..."
"That's right. Now take a look at these pictures from when we first found them."
Brennan hands Booth the pictures of the victims positions.
"Look how each girl is laid on the floor. They all are face down and appear to have fallen freely."
"What about struggle? Did any of them struggle before the were stabbed"
"Some of them. Look at this one, this is Lisa Tuttel. See how she is slightly postioned different than the others. Were she fell, if you look closely her knees left a small print on the floor. This suggest that Lisa was dragged. Someone held her arms togehter and when they finished stabbing her she fell to the floor."
"Incredible...she's the only one who really resisted"
"Booth, they all resisted but she was dragged. The other six it looks like they just went along with it."
"Maybe, the killer some how silenced them"
"I think we need to talk to some former students. Booth try any get any nearby and living students from the class of 1959. They should be the most help to us and ask if they knew any of our victims."
"Ok Bones"
As soon as Booth walked out Angela walks in.
"Good news sweetie we have our body #8. I have the image loaded right now"
"Great see if you can catch Booth before he leaves."
Angela catches Booth just in time. They all meet back in the imagery room to discuss the new victim.
"Here we go again. Our newest member to the ID list is Laura Kanenan. She's 16 black hair, green eyes, 5'3, and approx 170lbs. Here's the interesting thing though...Hodgins if you please"
"I think Laura here is in no relation to the murders. She has no signs of struggle, no marks, cuts, anything. What killed is a rare disease called Gillytoma, it's almost non-existent today. Gillytoma is a case were the stomach of the body constantly changes in size. One day it can be the size of a hamburger and the next day it would be the size of a Jolly Rancher. It continues to change in size until the stomach irrupts. Very painful, doctors still can't understand the conditon."
"If the body isn't related to the case then what was she doing there?"(Booth)
Booth heads back to his office to locate any presntly living students from the class of 1959. He and Brennan hope they can provide some answers to this bizzare case. Later that evening Booth returns to the lab. The rest of the team have gone home, but Brennan is still in her office working.
"Booth what are you doing here?"
"Bones it's almost 10:30, you should go home and get some rest. I just drop by to see if you were still here or not"
"I'm going to leave shortly. What's that your holding?"
"I was able to locate a Gabrielle Ronalds. She says she knew each of our victims. I've arranged for us to meet with her tommorow."
"Great"
"You want me to take you home?"
"No, I'll be fine. I've just been thinking about Rachel that's all"
"Where does she live?"
"Stensilbridge"
"That only a half hour away from Gabrielle, maybe we can pay her a visit tommorow"
Brennan gives Booth a smile...
"Thank you Booth"
"Goodnight Bones"
"Goodnight Booth"
