Recap / Bones S 10 E 3 The Purging Of The Pundit

Go To

A conservative radio host's remains are found in a storm drain, and his extracurricular activities lead to a surprising list of suspects. Aubrey and Brennan continue to worry about Booth's mental health.

Tropes

  • Interplay of Sex and Violence: Discussed. Booth doesn't like S&M, Bones has no problem seeing the connection between the two.
  • No Celebrities Were Harmed: The Victim of the Week is an overweight far right wing radio talk show guy... Rush Limbaugh decided not to sue.
  • Shout-Out: On entering the victim's sex dungeon, Bones references Fifty Shades of Grey.
  • What the Hell, Hero?: Aubrey gets a pretty awesome "Calling the Old Man Out" moment when he tells Booth he's full of crap for dismissing Aubrey.
    Aubrey: Look, I know that what happened to you was messed up. And then what happened to Sweets. But remember that Sweets trusted me to work with you, so when you treat me like crap, you're treating Sweets like crap, too. Here's everything I got from the hotel. Good luck with the wife.
