Ryan O'Neal makes an appearance here as a priest who says he was contacted by Brennan's father. This puts Bones and her brother in danger. The case involves corruption in the FBI years previously, so Booth has to do the right thing and go after one of his own--not an easy task. He is risking big time reprisals from his bosses. The great part of this episode is that fringe characters are brought into play. We also have the subplot of Zach Addy facing a panel, defending his doctoral dissertation. It was a bit like the Spanish inquisition. I'm pretty sure a panel of his readers would be used to modern students, especially those on the spectrum, having some unconventionality when it comes to cultural norms. I thoroughly enjoyed this episode.
