Eaten
ctomvelu-11 January 2009
So here wee go with the story arc involving cannibalistic killers. A skull is dropped off a highway overpass, hits a windshield, and leads the team to a secret vault that suggests people are being killed and eaten or vice versa, and possibly by more than one individual. This is the start of the adventures of killer who evidently belongs to a shadowy society for such killers, and frankly nothing could bore me more. I hope it will not have the same effect on you. The greatly missed Zach is back, by the way. We do get our first look at the cool-looking metal skeleton that will figure more prominently as this particular story arc unfolds.

What's For Dinner?

Warning: Spoilers
So Cannibalism is going to be this season's focus. A whole bunch of weirdness has been propagated and sets and strange objects have been created for the season. Zack has come back and is even less personable than he was before he left. The army has had enough of his insanity. Of course, Angela finds out that during one of her drunken vacations, she married a drunken south seas islander. Hodgins has hired a private detective to find the guy. There is an actual marriage license. Bones and Booth continue their dance. She is becoming more and more intractable with her inability to engage. At times I wonder why anyone would want to be around her. We are introduced to Zack's possible replacement, but she steps all over him. Looks like a fun third season, although I imagine Angela's thing is going to take way too much time.

Of the best storylines of the show!

I love the episodes in this storyline!

The widows son in the windshield is a perfect start to season three, introducing yet another serial killer but with a twist... I enjoy the historical references and the set pieces are absolutely mesmerising!

Not going to spoil anything, but this storyline throughout the season is so very exciting and had me on the edge of my seat for every episode!!! 9 of 10 - my second fav ep.

The beginning of another story
mitchrmp18 July 2016
It's been three months since Angela and Jack left Booth and Brennan at the alter. Their relationship is not where Booth wants it to be. Zack has left for Iraq and Brennan does not want to work the field. Needless to say, this upsets Booth very much.

This episodes begins a story that will last the whole season. A skull lands on the windshield of some teens and it's discovered that the person was eaten by human teeth. They spend the entire episode trying to come up with answers, only to find more questions.

Zack returns half-way through the episode, much to Booth's happiness. It's then that Booth discovers the real reason Brennan has been at odds with him.

There are a couple pretty intimate scenes between our favorite Bones couple. I'm thinking Booth would gladly take this relationship to the next level if Brennan wasn't so against it.

Jack and Angie work at finding Angie's husband.

"Squeeze and squish?"

Warning: Spoilers
Welcome new intern, Clark Edison! Everyone is trying to get Bones back into the field with Booth, however she doesn't trust anyone as her assistant but Zack. Lucky for her, Zackaroni comes back from his government posting in Iraq. I'm sure we'll see Mr. Edison again.

Hodgins and Angela work with a private investigator to find her estranged husband. However her memories of the ceremony and "husband" are blurred due to a local drink called kava and she is of little to no help.

In the murder case, we have a skull that's been chewed on by a cannibal with a diamond incisor. This introduces a recurring theme for the season of a "cannibalistic secret society" as the ever lovely Ms. Julian calls it. Unfortunately, the murderer with the diamond incisor is just an apprentice and he is found dead in jail. The Jeffersonian team will have to dig through the copious amounts of evidence recovered from the secret society's bank vault lair to find how deep this goes.

Hey Bones Booth Pod!

I do feel bad for Clark but noone can replace Zack and I'm so glad he's back. Ofcourse Angela would get married to a random guy in Fiji and not know his name. Poor Hodgins freaking out about Angela's ex but it's ok she loves you. Another case with cannibalism like man in the bear but with a very different story. Caroline you're the biggest baddest lawyer in town. Glad Bone's went back to the field Booth was a bit lost without her. Interesting and creepy bank vault. Not sure if I wanted to know that humans taste like beef and babies taste like fish. Don't listen to the army Zack you're amazing! Awwww yes Bones and Booth you are the center of the team.
