Brennan felt like maybe she was having a bad dream. For some reason, she wasn't quite understanding what her graduate students were talking about. "Maybe if I looked over the evidence myself, I'd be able to…" understand it. "explain it better to Booth".
"Sure, Dr. Brennan." Wendell smiled. "No problem."
As Wendell turned to walk off the platform, he turned. "Hey Dr. Brennan, did you get new contacts or something?"
"No…what do you mean?'
He frowned a bit, then shook his head. "Oh, nothing…your eyes just seem darker for some reason, but I could just be imagining it"
Brennan just turned away and picked up her coffee. Taking a sip, she put it back. "There's something wrong with this. It needs sugar."
"You never take sugar with your coffee, Dr. Brennan." Cam looked at her strangely.
BBBBBBBBBBBBBB
Booth sipped his coffee and frowned. It was too sweet. Normally he liked a couple of sugars, but for some reason, it was way too sweet today. He walked to the break room and poured it out.
"Agent Booth?" the forensic tech knocked on the door. "Can I ask you to give some information to Dr. Brennan?"
"Sure" Booth shrugged. "What's up?"
"Well" the tech looked suspiciously at him. "This is normally Dr. Brennan's territory, but…we found something interesting. The body we found originally on its back? We think maybe someone tampered with the crime scene."
"You KNOW how angry I get when someone messes with my remains!" Booth crossed his arms. "Um…I mean…Dr. Brennan gets upset?" He frowned. "So there was some sort of discrepancy with the hypostasis?'
The tech blinked at Booth's technical phrasing. "Ah, yes…so if you can just ask Dr. Brennan about her findings, we'd appreciate it."
"I will do that" Booth looked at his coffee mug, then nodded at the two other agents who walked inside the break room. "And you be sure to mark the occipitals and maybe check some tomography."
Booth looked around .What was wrong with him?
The other agents laughed, and one patted him on the back. "Agent Booth, you sound like Encyclopedia Brown."
Booth felt it rise up before he could stop it. "I don't know what that means."
He clapped a hand over his mouth and rushed for his office.
