LilithBones: Secrets in the Soil

Booth and Bones go to therapy, and the team tries to figure out why a corpse has a temperature of a 127 degrees. Plus Emily and David get co-producer credits on this one.
The beginning of the episode is great with Booth and Bones standing hand to hand in front of their 22 year old therapist. Obviously Booth doesn’t want to be there. He gets even more annoyed when the therapist gives them homework, and later on asks Bones what she answered on one of the questions because he, “marked 12 to 15 times a day, but I’m thinkin’ I completely misunderstood the question.” Bones asks him if that’s how he got through school and he says no, except for maybe algebra.
Getting back to the dead cooked or incinerated body, it belonged to Franklin Curtis, the founder of an organic supermarket. Booth and Bones go to question the people around the farm, and the wife of the man that hated Curtis for trying to force him to sell his farm offers the FBI agents some lemonade, of which Booth quite enjoys. Later on they visit a man trying to grow pineapples organically in a Virginia hot house. He makes them smoothies using a bike powered blender, and Booth asks for a to-go cup when Bones drags him out.
Bones and Booth visit a compost pile where he can’t stand the smell, and find another body of a woman who was killed the day before Curtis. Turns out his daughter thought he was having an affair, but the other girl was actually her half sister. She’s devastated when she finds out.
Hodgins has some great bug moments, including a declaration of “King of the Lab” when he finally figures out what his mystery beetle is. Angela tells a stoned stalker she "will squash you like a bug, dude. Describe the guy" when he tells her he likes artists as she, Brennan, and Booth are trying to get him to describe the man driving the organic food van that was in front of the dead woman’s apartment.
When they finally make it back to the psychiatrist, he lets them know that according to their “test results”, they complement each other. Booth gets his complements and compliments mixed up, so Bones explains, “He means we complete each other.” Professionally of course…
When the therapist starts attacking Booth for not being able to let out his feelings about tough cases, Bones immediately comes to her partner’s rescue, telling the young therapist to “back off!”
I love the end here they discuss how hypothetically, if there were never murders, they probably never would have met and they probably wouldn’t see each other. Booth thinks they’d still have coffee once in awhile, and when Bones says she doesn’t think so, he looks stricken. “You wouldn’t even have coffee with me?”
After they get it straight that he said if there weren’t “any more” murders, as in they’d already met, Bones decides that they would have coffee. The young psychiatrist tells them that they can keep working together, but that he definitely read some underlying problems they’re going to have to work on.
Favorite quotes of the week:
Therapist: Are you normally this protective of him Dr. Brennan?
Bones: We’re partners, our lives depend on being protective of each other.
Therapist: And you feel the same way Agent Booth?
Booth: I can only hope that one day you can understand what a true partnership is.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Therapist: There’s clearly a very deep emotional attachment between you two.
Booth: We’re just partners.
Therapist: And uh, why would you think I thought otherwise?
Booth: Because you’re twelve.

Haha! Can’t wait for the Halloween episode next week! Catwoman vs. Wonder Woman. Nice.
