Bones' past affects her handling of the case to an extent (being a foster child herself), and tension mounts between the new chief and the rest of Bones' crew, but they came to a decent compromise.

Bones' naivete was hilarious when she tried to "buy" some info on the street, and simply got ripped off. Sometimes they write Bones far too naive for a bright person who appears to also be able to function in the real world (and not just in the lab).

Good episode.

When this show started, I didn't think it would last more than a few episodes. The interaction between everyone seemed so forced and phony. But the squints have all grown into good characters. I'm not crazy about the new boss (the old boss was better). And I could do without the close-ups of decaying flesh. But this show is good enough to make my weekly schedule.

Good episode.

Although, I can see the season finale ending with Bones getting fired.

I don't like the new boss on the show. Bones is awkward enough alone. Giving her someone internal to the institute that she has to spar with is irksome. I don't remember what reason they gave for her to come in, but I was glad to see that the staff was still on the side of Temp even if she isn't exactly in charge.
