1
00:00:02,079 --> 00:00:05,228
Overall, Clark is the most astute and experienced.

2
00:00:05,474 --> 00:00:06,587
Ah, so, hire him.

3
00:00:06,587 --> 00:00:11,041
Wendell has the most potential ent work ethic.

4
00:00:11,041 --> 00:00:14,216
Plus, you know, he's somewhat normal. Well, that's what you like.

5
00:00:14,216 --> 00:00:17,040
Vincent is the most intelligent.
Well, that's what you like,

6
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:18,239
so you should hire him.

7
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:19,969
I mean, this person's gonna be your right hand man.

8
00:00:19,969 --> 00:00:23,916
Well, I've decided to take your opinion
into account as I make this decision.

9
00:00:24,540 --> 00:00:25,441
Really?

10
00:00:25,441 --> 00:00:26,987
I'm making an effort.

11
00:00:27,689 --> 00:00:29,186
Well... Booth.

12
00:00:29,186 --> 00:00:30,937
Agent Booth, this is Sergeant Nakamura.

13
00:00:30,937 --> 00:00:34,065
Nake, my friend Nake with the sake! How's it hanging?

14
00:00:34,065 --> 00:00:36,256
I'm afraid they are not hanging well, Booth.

15
00:00:36,481 --> 00:00:37,591
What's wrong?

16
00:00:37,591 --> 00:00:40,547
My sister has not returned my calls. It has been five days.

17
00:00:40,547 --> 00:00:44,076
Okay, look, we all know how overly protective you are of Sachi.

18
00:00:44,076 --> 00:00:46,838
Your sister... 
You're a cop like me, Booth.

19
00:00:46,838 --> 00:00:48,731
She calls every day.
Something's wrong.

20
00:00:48,731 --> 00:00:51,989
Okay, so, why are you telling me?
'Cause I'm in Tokyo.

21
00:00:52,229 --> 00:00:54,640
Oh, Sachi's here in D.C.?
Almost two months.

22
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,538
She told me she called you. She has not called you?

23
00:00:56,538 --> 00:00:59,407
Whoa, whoa... just relax, all right?

24
00:00:59,407 --> 00:01:01,527
21-year-old girl probably doesn't want

25
00:01:01,527 --> 00:01:03,896
her brother's friend cramping her style.

26
00:01:03,896 --> 00:01:05,904
If I fly in, can you help me look for her?

27
00:01:05,904 --> 00:01:08,028
I'll tell you what. Just text me her information,

28
00:01:08,028 --> 00:01:11,815
I'll track her down and I'll make her call you. Okay? I promise.

29
00:01:19,329 --> 00:01:21,216
Hey, Rick, it's Booth.

30
00:01:21,216 --> 00:01:23,668
Listen, I'm looking for a little interagency cooperation.

31
00:01:23,668 --> 00:01:24,562
What do you need?

32
00:01:24,562 --> 00:01:26,964
Hey, has there been any action on a Japanese national,

33
00:01:26,964 --> 00:01:31,031
legal entry named Sachi Nakamura, female, age 21?

34
00:01:31,031 --> 00:01:32,376
Give me a minute.

35
00:01:33,288 --> 00:01:34,291
When were you in Japan?

36
00:01:34,291 --> 00:01:37,450
A few years ago on an exchange program with the Tokyo police.

37
00:01:37,847 --> 00:01:39,316
Nak's a great guy, man.

38
00:01:39,316 --> 00:01:41,550
He and his sister, you know, they made me feel like family.

39
00:01:41,550 --> 00:01:44,883
But he's overprotective?
He worries. Every parent does.

40
00:01:44,883 --> 00:01:46,311
But he's her brother.

41
00:01:46,311 --> 00:01:49,544
Raised his little sister after his parents died. That makes him a parent.

42
00:01:49,747 --> 00:01:51,080
I got a hit on your girl.

43
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,790
A car registered to her was found abandoned near Tillbrook salt marshes.

44
00:01:54,790 --> 00:01:59,185
Salt marshes... that's a pretty popular place to dump a body, Booth.

45
00:01:59,185 --> 00:01:59,953
Yeah.

46
00:02:12,260 --> 00:02:14,235
Hey, I'm Special Agent... 
Booth. Yeah.

47
00:02:14,235 --> 00:02:17,148
Detective Frame told me to wait on you before I had this vehicle towed.

48
00:02:17,148 --> 00:02:19,449
Well, that was nice of him.
I'm Officer Lisa Kopek.

49
00:02:19,449 --> 00:02:23,973
Car is registered to Sachi Nakamura,
311 Ring Road, here on a work visa

50
00:02:23,973 --> 00:02:26,748
from Tokyo, Japan. I printed her visa photo.

51
00:02:27,513 --> 00:02:30,172
This is blood on the upholstery.
Yeah.

52
00:02:30,172 --> 00:02:33,213
Any sign of the girl?
No. Damn. Yeah.

53
00:02:33,213 --> 00:02:34,973
Checked her residence... it's empty.

54
00:02:34,973 --> 00:02:36,716
Looks like it's been that way a couple days.

55
00:02:36,979 --> 00:02:40,339
Also no sign of her roommate, Nozomi Sato.

56
00:02:40,339 --> 00:02:42,577
Ms. Sato's here on a lapsed student visa.

57
00:02:44,415 --> 00:02:47,136
I got a request in for cadaver dogs.

58
00:02:47,136 --> 00:02:49,582
Okay, whoa, whoa, Bones, what we usually do here

59
00:02:49,582 --> 00:02:52,692
is wait for people in rubber boots.

60
00:02:52,692 --> 00:02:54,540
I see something...

61
00:02:55,790 --> 00:02:57,198
I... I just got these shoes, so...

62
00:03:01,683 --> 00:03:02,874
What is it, a body?

63
00:03:04,579 --> 00:03:06,918
No, it's some kind of mask.

64
00:03:06,918 --> 00:03:09,085
Okay, Bones, come on, get out of there, let's go.

65
00:03:14,700 --> 00:03:17,197
Booth?
What?

66
00:03:18,823 --> 00:03:21,885
There's flesh in the mask. Human head.

67
00:03:21,885 --> 00:03:24,192
Is she serious? Yeah, always. And Booth?

68
00:03:24,192 --> 00:03:26,877
This mask appears to be Japanese in design.

69
00:04:08,377 --> 00:04:11,402
Based on the weak prominence of the arcus superciliaris,

70
00:04:11,402 --> 00:04:14,379
the victim is female.

71
00:04:14,379 --> 00:04:19,212
The head was decapitated between C5 and C6 vertebrae.

72
00:04:19,212 --> 00:04:21,410
Judging from decomp and discoloration,

73
00:04:21,643 --> 00:04:25,047
I'd estimate the head was in the pond a minimum of four days.

74
00:04:25,047 --> 00:04:27,501
Can you confirm decapitation as cause of death?

75
00:04:27,501 --> 00:04:30,187
Nope, victim was in the water too long. The blood leached out.

76
00:04:30,187 --> 00:04:32,496
There's trace lodged deep in the striae.

77
00:04:32,496 --> 00:04:35,443
The blade could have transferred particulates from the ground

78
00:04:35,443 --> 00:04:38,730
into the wound track when it was withdrawn from the bone.

79
00:04:39,037 --> 00:04:42,122
Hey, sweetie, Booth is in your office. He's got some people with him.

80
00:04:42,122 --> 00:04:43,021
Thanks.

81
00:04:44,256 --> 00:04:45,965
Ugh. Just when I thought it couldn't get worse.

82
00:04:50,101 --> 00:04:52,516
Bones, this here is Sachi Nakamura's brother Ken.

83
00:04:56,163 --> 00:04:58,102
The honor is mine, Dr. Brennan.

84
00:04:59,284 --> 00:05:00,783
May I present to you...

85
00:05:01,606 --> 00:05:03,793
I know. Dr. Haru Tanaka.

86
00:05:03,793 --> 00:05:06,410
The Emperor awarded Dr. Tanaka the Grand Cordon

87
00:05:06,410 --> 00:05:07,755
of the Order of the Rising Sun

88
00:05:07,755 --> 00:05:11,048
for Dr. Tanaka's paper on "Investigation of Second, Fourth

89
00:05:11,048 --> 00:05:14,965
"and Eighth Sternal Rib End Variations related to Age Estimation."

90
00:05:14,965 --> 00:05:17,554
It was brilliant. I am honored to meet you.

91
00:05:17,554 --> 00:05:20,165
Everyone in the field accepts that you are the best.

92
00:05:20,165 --> 00:05:21,408
Yes, I know.

93
00:05:21,408 --> 00:05:24,441
I told Ken and the doctor they can aid in the investigation.

94
00:05:25,523 --> 00:05:29,308
That is against protocol, Booth. Bones, this could be his sister.

95
00:05:32,026 --> 00:05:34,309
I would enjoy working with Dr. Tanaka.

96
00:05:41,885 --> 00:05:43,713
You gonna be okay with this?
I am fine.

97
00:05:43,713 --> 00:05:46,621
There is a contact wound inferior to the mandible,

98
00:05:46,621 --> 00:05:49,298
exiting slightly anterior to the Bregma point.

99
00:05:49,298 --> 00:05:51,733
That would be consistent with a gunshot wound.

100
00:05:52,740 --> 00:05:55,625
Bones, maybe you should just jump ahead and I.D. the victim.

101
00:05:56,858 --> 00:05:59,957
Maxilla and zygomatic conform to her photograph.

102
00:06:10,267 --> 00:06:13,401
The palate is fractured but appears parabolic

103
00:06:13,401 --> 00:06:16,742
with a straight suture across the palatine bone

104
00:06:16,742 --> 00:06:19,775
indicating that she was a native Japanese speaker.

105
00:06:20,322 --> 00:06:23,081
Did your sister have any kind of distinctive

106
00:06:23,081 --> 00:06:25,685
facial scarring or dental work?

107
00:06:25,685 --> 00:06:29,187
When Sachi was eight, she fell doing gymnastics; broke her jaw.

108
00:06:29,187 --> 00:06:30,575
It was wired for two months.

109
00:06:32,536 --> 00:06:36,119
Impact fracture from a fall. Remodeling of the jaw suggests

110
00:06:36,337 --> 00:06:38,853
that it occurred prior to puberty.

111
00:06:40,655 --> 00:06:44,855
I feel comfortable identifying the remains as your sister.

112
00:06:45,523 --> 00:06:47,523
I'm very sorry.
Thank you.

113
00:06:48,860 --> 00:06:50,062
If you would excuse me.

114
00:06:58,045 --> 00:07:01,455
Hey, Nak, listen, I have agents looking for Sachi's roommate.

115
00:07:01,455 --> 00:07:03,662
There's a chance the roommate may have seen something.

116
00:07:04,076 --> 00:07:06,294
Yes. Good.

117
00:07:07,557 --> 00:07:10,128
I'm sorry, Nak.
You have a child.

118
00:07:10,128 --> 00:07:13,354
You know it was my responsibility to keep her safe.

119
00:07:13,573 --> 00:07:16,078
She was 21 but still a child.

120
00:07:16,078 --> 00:07:19,141
All right, come on, let me get you back to the hotel. You get some rest.

121
00:07:19,141 --> 00:07:21,268
Not until we find who did this. I hear you, Nak.

122
00:07:21,268 --> 00:07:22,845
But we need a lead, something we can go on.

123
00:07:22,845 --> 00:07:25,787
Sachi was going to move back to Japan.

124
00:07:25,787 --> 00:07:29,022
But the man who took these pictures said he could make her a model.

125
00:07:30,567 --> 00:07:32,606
Okay, there's something.

126
00:07:33,705 --> 00:07:34,996
Right?

127
00:07:41,260 --> 00:07:44,609
Whoa, this is like one of those big-eyed paintings they sell at the mall.

128
00:07:44,609 --> 00:07:47,886
Uh, the mask is based on anime design. Japanese animation.

129
00:07:47,886 --> 00:07:50,521
So, someone had it out for a cartoon character?

130
00:07:50,521 --> 00:07:52,985
No, this is original, uh, not representing

131
00:07:52,985 --> 00:07:56,928
any of the well-known characters: Sailor Moon, Faye Valentine, Motoko.

132
00:07:57,259 --> 00:08:00,688
The mask could have been used by
the killer to dehumanize the victim,

133
00:08:00,688 --> 00:08:03,794
allowing whoever decapitated her to distance himself

134
00:08:03,794 --> 00:08:05,516
from the ugly reality of her death.

135
00:08:05,516 --> 00:08:07,765
Hmm, you are entering the realm of psychology,

136
00:08:07,765 --> 00:08:09,998
a field of unverifiable speculation.

137
00:08:09,998 --> 00:08:12,449
Perhaps I can be of further help to Dr. Brennan.

138
00:08:16,007 --> 00:08:17,782
Sometimes I hate hard science.

139
00:08:17,782 --> 00:08:20,499
I know that seems immature, but that's just how I feel.

140
00:08:20,499 --> 00:08:23,053
So, any guesses?
We don't really have enough evidence yet.

141
00:08:23,053 --> 00:08:24,441
No, not the case.

142
00:08:24,893 --> 00:08:26,164
The doctor.

143
00:08:27,052 --> 00:08:28,692
Dude or dudette?

144
00:08:31,970 --> 00:08:33,272
I don't know. I...

145
00:08:35,227 --> 00:08:38,371
Now, remember, Nak, this is my investigation. You're just a tourist.

146
00:08:38,371 --> 00:08:39,692
Just a tourist.

147
00:08:40,470 --> 00:08:43,011
Micah Strutt. How can I help you?

148
00:08:43,011 --> 00:08:44,475
FBI. I'd like to ask you a few questions

149
00:08:44,475 --> 00:08:47,074
about Sachi Nakamura and Nozomi Sato.

150
00:08:47,074 --> 00:08:49,194
Sure.
They were the roommates, right?

151
00:08:49,412 --> 00:08:51,798
Nice kids. When did you see them last?

152
00:08:51,798 --> 00:08:53,899
Must be about a couple months now.

153
00:08:53,899 --> 00:08:55,917
They came in for a shoot.

154
00:08:58,285 --> 00:08:59,527
"Pappa Puffs."

155
00:08:59,527 --> 00:09:01,442
Yeah, the girls worked there.

156
00:09:01,442 --> 00:09:04,362
You made them pose like this?
Me? No.

157
00:09:04,362 --> 00:09:05,624
That was their idea.

158
00:09:05,624 --> 00:09:07,304
They convinced their boss to do some advertising,

159
00:09:07,552 --> 00:09:09,930
but he went postal when he saw the proofs.

160
00:09:09,930 --> 00:09:11,497
That old jerk fired them for this.

161
00:09:11,497 --> 00:09:14,074
The 21st century, who cares about a little skin, right?

162
00:09:14,422 --> 00:09:16,940
He does. That's his sister.

163
00:09:27,478 --> 00:09:31,118
Hey, I feel like someone slipped something into my coffee, huh?

164
00:09:31,337 --> 00:09:32,978
Fashion is the way the Japanese youth

165
00:09:32,978 --> 00:09:34,844
rebel against traditional social roles.

166
00:09:34,844 --> 00:09:36,621
What is with the, uh, "amaloli" girls?

167
00:09:36,621 --> 00:09:39,668
I never expected to see the, uh, "Sweet Lolitas" here in the States.

168
00:09:39,668 --> 00:09:43,179
The culture follows the youth. It's just innocent role playing.

169
00:09:43,179 --> 00:09:45,317
Usually.
Nak...

170
00:09:45,732 --> 00:09:46,942
I see.

171
00:09:49,749 --> 00:09:50,757
Excuse me.

172
00:09:51,223 --> 00:09:52,788
You the owner?
Why do you ask?

173
00:09:53,442 --> 00:09:54,567
FBI.

174
00:10:04,970 --> 00:10:06,363
We need your help.

175
00:10:07,390 --> 00:10:08,479
As a tourist.

176
00:10:08,479 --> 00:10:10,636
We'd like to ask you a few questions about Sachi Nakamura

177
00:10:11,062 --> 00:10:14,146
and her friend Nozomi.
Are Sachi and Nozomi in trouble?

178
00:10:14,353 --> 00:10:17,022
Uh, Sachi is dead and Nozomi is missing.

179
00:10:18,402 --> 00:10:21,603
I've known them since they started coming for the tea parties.

180
00:10:22,049 --> 00:10:24,070
They were anime girls. I gave them jobs.

181
00:10:24,070 --> 00:10:27,667
Is this the, uh, mask that, uh, Sachi was wearing to the parties?

182
00:10:27,667 --> 00:10:29,340
No, that's Nozomi's.

183
00:10:29,340 --> 00:10:31,784
What happened? Those girls were like family.

184
00:10:31,784 --> 00:10:33,159
You always fire family?

185
00:10:34,368 --> 00:10:36,440
They developed other interests.

186
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,776
They didn't belong here anymore. I tried to talk to them,

187
00:10:38,776 --> 00:10:41,823
explain what a bad choice they were making.
What are you talking about?

188
00:10:41,823 --> 00:10:44,545
The girls started working for an escort service.

189
00:10:44,545 --> 00:10:47,974
I couldn't allow that here. Families come here... 
That's not possible!

190
00:10:47,974 --> 00:10:51,295
It's true.
Not my sister.
Your sister...?

191
00:10:51,295 --> 00:10:53,913
You know the name of the escort service?
Elegant Escorts.

192
00:10:53,913 --> 00:10:56,602
Don't believe you!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

193
00:10:57,867 --> 00:10:59,898
Yeah, put the cleaver down, pal.

194
00:11:00,823 --> 00:11:01,973
Easy.

195
00:11:03,529 --> 00:11:04,769
Put it down.

196
00:11:11,667 --> 00:11:12,645
Dr. Saroyan.

197
00:11:12,645 --> 00:11:16,115
Dr. Tanaka. With your permission, I
would like to free the head of tissue.

198
00:11:16,115 --> 00:11:18,392
I have a test to perform first.

199
00:11:19,719 --> 00:11:21,233
You're welcome to observe.

200
00:11:23,853 --> 00:11:24,994
This is ferrozine?

201
00:11:24,994 --> 00:11:27,654
Yes. I'm testing for gunshot residue.

202
00:11:30,537 --> 00:11:31,597
No reaction.

203
00:11:31,597 --> 00:11:34,725
Any shot fired within five feet would've left residue.

204
00:11:35,982 --> 00:11:39,250
The angle of entry was steep, exiting at the top of the cranium.

205
00:11:39,250 --> 00:11:40,888
Sachi was only five feet tall.

206
00:11:40,888 --> 00:11:43,638
Even if her killer was lying on the ground, there'd be residue.

207
00:11:43,638 --> 00:11:45,443
Perhaps she was coming downstairs.

208
00:11:45,700 --> 00:11:48,329
Or maybe standing on the balcony of her apartment?

209
00:11:48,971 --> 00:11:51,044
Grab some goggles and a mask.

210
00:12:06,791 --> 00:12:09,113
Did you know the victim, Dr. Tanaka?

211
00:12:09,113 --> 00:12:12,533
I met Sachi three times. She and her brother were very close.

212
00:12:12,533 --> 00:12:14,962
That's a very big favor to do Detective Nakamura,

213
00:12:14,962 --> 00:12:17,904
coming all the way from Japan.
I would do anything for him.

214
00:12:19,390 --> 00:12:20,604
Okay.

215
00:12:50,138 --> 00:12:51,234
There.

216
00:12:53,565 --> 00:12:57,702
While I examine the wound track, you can analyze exit trauma.

217
00:12:57,702 --> 00:12:58,990
Thank you.

218
00:12:59,673 --> 00:13:01,306
Since Booth took you out of the field,

219
00:13:01,306 --> 00:13:03,791
I thought perhaps you'd like to consolidate

220
00:13:03,791 --> 00:13:06,752
the results of our analysis to convey to Booth.

221
00:13:06,752 --> 00:13:09,230
You are trying to make me feel useful.

222
00:13:09,791 --> 00:13:12,096
No, I... I don't really do things like that.

223
00:13:12,096 --> 00:13:15,026
I owe you for talking Booth out of sending me home.

224
00:13:15,026 --> 00:13:18,041
Wasn't me. Booth is a very empathetic man.

225
00:13:18,041 --> 00:13:19,035
Yes.

226
00:13:19,691 --> 00:13:23,987
Are you aware how we met?
Some kind of exchange program?

227
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:25,480
Aye.

228
00:13:25,861 --> 00:13:28,836
Most of the FBI agents showed up and started telling us

229
00:13:28,836 --> 00:13:31,178
how to handle our organized crime problem.

230
00:13:31,178 --> 00:13:34,876
Booth said nothing. Two, three days, just listening.

231
00:13:35,142 --> 00:13:37,360
He was quiet? That...

232
00:13:38,336 --> 00:13:39,954
that does not sound like Booth.

233
00:13:39,954 --> 00:13:41,438
Then he asked a question.

234
00:13:42,266 --> 00:13:43,425
He asked,

235
00:13:43,708 --> 00:13:47,878
"How would you gentlemen handle our organized crime problem?"

236
00:13:49,088 --> 00:13:50,728
He was respectful.

237
00:13:50,982 --> 00:13:52,680
That is the basis of your friendship?

238
00:13:52,887 --> 00:13:57,341
That and a situation incited by a gallon of sake,

239
00:13:57,341 --> 00:13:59,777
a police boat, and Uraga Harbor at dawn.

240
00:14:02,178 --> 00:14:03,981
You're a lucky woman, Dr. Brennan.

241
00:14:04,734 --> 00:14:06,242
To work with Booth?

242
00:14:06,825 --> 00:14:08,033
I know.

243
00:14:08,817 --> 00:14:10,429
To work with Booth.

244
00:14:10,917 --> 00:14:12,056
Yes.

245
00:14:14,757 --> 00:14:15,604
There you go.

246
00:14:16,145 --> 00:14:18,291
So, the mask didn't belong to the killer,

247
00:14:18,291 --> 00:14:22,041
it belonged to Nozomi, Sachi's roommate.
Okay, so?

248
00:14:22,041 --> 00:14:25,614
So perhaps the killer wasn't trying to dehumanize his victim.

249
00:14:25,614 --> 00:14:27,028
Two coffees, please?
You got it.

250
00:14:27,028 --> 00:14:30,040
Well, maybe he just had a thing for girls in masks.

251
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,318
I mean, I get that.
You do?

252
00:14:32,318 --> 00:14:33,065
Yeah.

253
00:14:34,797 --> 00:14:37,389
In an objective, evidentiary way.

254
00:14:38,013 --> 00:14:39,441
You had a point?

255
00:14:39,682 --> 00:14:43,933
Yeah, I think that the killer was purposely projecting Nozomi's identity

256
00:14:43,933 --> 00:14:45,211
onto his murder victim.

257
00:14:45,211 --> 00:14:46,239
Hey.

258
00:14:46,239 --> 00:14:50,929
So, I Googled Tanaka. 300 hits, all Japanese,

259
00:14:50,929 --> 00:14:52,789
none with a personal pronoun.

260
00:14:53,212 --> 00:14:54,965
Maybe we should just ask her.
Him.

261
00:14:54,965 --> 00:14:57,896
Uh, you people can identify human remains

262
00:14:57,896 --> 00:15:00,644
based on a tiny little finger bone, but you can't judge the sex

263
00:15:00,644 --> 00:15:02,326
of a person standing right in front of you?

264
00:15:02,326 --> 00:15:05,402
Does nobody else see the irony in this?
Of course.

265
00:15:05,402 --> 00:15:07,876
But, as a scientist, I also see the challenge.

266
00:15:07,876 --> 00:15:10,838
Well, Dr. Tanaka identifies with a subset

267
00:15:10,838 --> 00:15:13,059
of an urban Japanese aesthetic known as kei.

268
00:15:13,379 --> 00:15:14,220
Thank you.

269
00:15:14,220 --> 00:15:17,746
It glorifies androgyny.
Well, mission accomplished there, Dr. Tanaka.

270
00:15:17,746 --> 00:15:19,376
You know, I think you're probably right.

271
00:15:19,604 --> 00:15:20,998
We should just ask him.
Her.

272
00:15:20,998 --> 00:15:24,326
Tanaka won't answer. That's the whole point. Gender is unimportant.

273
00:15:24,326 --> 00:15:28,404
We should be mature enough to accept
Dr. Tanaka just the way Dr. Tanaka is.

274
00:15:28,404 --> 00:15:29,994
Yeah. Yeah, you know what? You're right. Who cares?

275
00:15:29,994 --> 00:15:32,822
Yeah, I mean, it doesn't really matter what he is.

276
00:15:32,822 --> 00:15:33,933
She.

277
00:15:34,283 --> 00:15:36,201
What she is.

278
00:15:44,702 --> 00:15:45,332
Do you mind?

279
00:15:45,332 --> 00:15:48,050
Yeah, actually I do. James Sok, right? Elegant Escorts?

280
00:15:49,013 --> 00:15:50,607
Yeah. So?

281
00:15:50,875 --> 00:15:52,314
I run a legitimate business.

282
00:15:52,971 --> 00:15:53,943
You're a pimp.

283
00:15:53,943 --> 00:15:56,708
I don't like pimps.
He really doesn't. No.

284
00:15:56,708 --> 00:15:59,697
Your record says that you assaulted Bruce Takedo.

285
00:15:59,697 --> 00:16:03,589
Those charges were dropped. Because
the guy attacked me with a knife.

286
00:16:03,892 --> 00:16:05,265
All I did was protect myself.
Really.

287
00:16:05,265 --> 00:16:07,088
Probably because you were recruiting at his place.

288
00:16:07,088 --> 00:16:09,084
Middle-aged guy, surrounds himself with schoolgirls,

289
00:16:09,084 --> 00:16:10,649
maybe he's the guy you want to look at.

290
00:16:10,649 --> 00:16:13,169
Nozomi Sato. You recognize her?
Yeah.

291
00:16:13,169 --> 00:16:15,708
I like Nomi.
She's missing.

292
00:16:16,459 --> 00:16:18,196
Well, most of my models come from Asia.

293
00:16:18,196 --> 00:16:20,773
They're young, flaky. Sometimes they take off.

294
00:16:20,773 --> 00:16:22,448
You know, you got a sweet life, Jimmy.

295
00:16:22,448 --> 00:16:26,049
You got a houseboat down at the marina. You got cash rolling in.

296
00:16:26,049 --> 00:16:29,511
If you want to live your life as my prime suspect in the murder

297
00:16:29,511 --> 00:16:32,021
of Sachi Nakamura, that's just fine.

298
00:16:32,021 --> 00:16:36,185
But just know, as of right now, your business is done.

299
00:16:36,185 --> 00:16:39,388
Or?
Or you give me something shiny to distract me.

300
00:16:41,125 --> 00:16:43,271
I don't know anything about Sachi Nakamura.

301
00:16:43,483 --> 00:16:47,073
But, uh, Nozomi booked a client last
Friday, and I haven't seen her since.

302
00:16:47,073 --> 00:16:49,064
That's the day that Sachi Nakamura disappeared.

303
00:16:49,064 --> 00:16:51,229
What's the client's name?
Banker named Vogler.

304
00:16:51,229 --> 00:16:54,353
Got hurt bad in the Big Crunch. Made him mean.

305
00:16:54,353 --> 00:16:56,087
And Nozomi didn't mind a little rough stuff.

306
00:16:57,130 --> 00:16:58,064
Let's go, Bones.

307
00:16:59,202 --> 00:17:02,807
That shiny enough for you?
Excuse me?
Booth...

308
00:17:02,807 --> 00:17:04,118
okay, come on.

309
00:17:08,965 --> 00:17:11,329
There is a small scratch to the left of the exit wound.

310
00:17:11,329 --> 00:17:14,862
And the directionality is outward from the midpoint of the coronal suture.

311
00:17:14,862 --> 00:17:17,629
Whatever pierced the skull must have splintered back inside.

312
00:17:17,629 --> 00:17:18,878
Splintered?

313
00:17:19,171 --> 00:17:21,169
It was a gunshot. Don't you mean fragmented?

314
00:17:21,169 --> 00:17:23,789
There are no striations on the cross section of the exit wound.

315
00:17:23,789 --> 00:17:27,299
So, she wasn't killed by a bullet?
That is my assessment.

316
00:17:27,299 --> 00:17:29,115
What could have been driven through her head?

317
00:17:35,152 --> 00:17:39,255
Perhaps you can inform Booth that
the murder weapon was not a gun.

318
00:17:46,734 --> 00:17:50,285
And we can X-ray the brain to see
if we find any evidence of splinters.

319
00:17:50,837 --> 00:17:54,064
I ran the particulates from the C-5 through the mass spec.

320
00:17:54,064 --> 00:17:56,843
Nematodes, Turbellaria, Copepods, blah-blah-blah... 

321
00:17:56,843 --> 00:17:58,825
all congruent with the marsh where the head was found.

322
00:17:58,825 --> 00:18:00,955
I am not familiar with the blah-blah-blah.

323
00:18:00,955 --> 00:18:03,878
But I also found bird vomit on the victim's head.

324
00:18:03,878 --> 00:18:07,600
Now I truly do not understand.
Totally lost.
Okay, uh, all right.

325
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,752
In salt marshes, there are high marshes,

326
00:18:10,972 --> 00:18:13,189
low marshes and salt flats.

327
00:18:13,189 --> 00:18:14,902
Dr. Brennan found the head on the low marsh.

328
00:18:14,902 --> 00:18:18,177
Yes, but the bird vomit comes from
Catoptrophorus semipalmatus.

329
00:18:19,364 --> 00:18:20,409
A willet.

330
00:18:22,090 --> 00:18:24,442
The willet is a high marsh creature.

331
00:18:24,442 --> 00:18:26,548
But the cadaver dogs are looking here on the low marsh.

332
00:18:26,548 --> 00:18:28,251
They should be looking here in the high marsh,

333
00:18:28,251 --> 00:18:30,434
where the willet is found.
But that is miles away.

334
00:18:30,434 --> 00:18:32,515
Yeah, which is why we need to call the search team.

335
00:18:32,515 --> 00:18:34,643
Why would someone cut a head off a bodhere

336
00:18:34,844 --> 00:18:37,787
and drive miles away to dispose of the head here?

337
00:18:37,787 --> 00:18:39,825
I rarely find motive in bird vomit.

338
00:18:46,163 --> 00:18:47,066
Seek!

339
00:18:50,701 --> 00:18:51,818
Oh, hey. It's you.

340
00:18:52,365 --> 00:18:53,027
Okay.

341
00:19:04,187 --> 00:19:04,977
Bones?

342
00:19:14,648 --> 00:19:15,368
Nak...

343
00:19:21,973 --> 00:19:24,686
I will autopsy the remains, then give the body back

344
00:19:24,686 --> 00:19:26,892
to Dr. Brennan, so she can remove the tissue.

345
00:19:26,892 --> 00:19:29,220
The marks on the vertebrae will give us a clearer idea

346
00:19:29,220 --> 00:19:31,614
of the weapon used to decapitate her.

347
00:19:31,614 --> 00:19:35,682
Dr. Tanaka can help me prepare the brain for liquefaction.

348
00:19:48,345 --> 00:19:50,941
Perhaps he shouldn't be here.
If he doesn't ask for help,

349
00:19:50,941 --> 00:19:54,437
it would be an insult for me to offer. It would imply weakness.

350
00:19:58,972 --> 00:20:02,036
I realize that staying here shows great strength

351
00:20:02,036 --> 00:20:04,319
and commitment to your sister's memory.

352
00:20:04,319 --> 00:20:07,833
She is lucky to have such a devoted brother.

353
00:20:09,107 --> 00:20:13,051
But it is distracting for us and might compromise our work.

354
00:20:13,051 --> 00:20:15,364
I'm sure you wouldn't want that.

355
00:20:16,112 --> 00:20:17,814
Of course not.

356
00:20:18,406 --> 00:20:20,163
I will come to you with any news.

357
00:20:32,063 --> 00:20:36,433
The heat and vibration will liquefy the tissue enabling us to examine

358
00:20:36,433 --> 00:20:38,784
whatever foreign particle was picked up by the X-ray.

359
00:20:41,286 --> 00:20:44,649
This was an excellent idea.
Thank you.

360
00:20:56,829 --> 00:20:58,124
Is there something wrong?

361
00:20:58,466 --> 00:21:01,818
What? No. Why?
You were staring at me.

362
00:21:02,264 --> 00:21:07,345
I was? I was? I don't... I didn't realize. I like your shirt.

363
00:21:10,056 --> 00:21:12,904
Oh, wow, look at that brain.

364
00:21:16,424 --> 00:21:18,073
Oh, I think I see it.

365
00:21:23,214 --> 00:21:25,102
What is it?
Wood?

366
00:21:25,102 --> 00:21:26,650
The wound track wasn't from a bullet,

367
00:21:26,650 --> 00:21:28,948
but from a piece of wood being thrust into her skull?

368
00:21:28,948 --> 00:21:31,164
Let's not get ahead of ourselves... give it to Hodgins

369
00:21:31,164 --> 00:21:32,899
so we know exactly what we're dealing with.

370
00:21:32,899 --> 00:21:35,461
Right away. He has also been staring.

371
00:21:35,461 --> 00:21:38,177
It seems many people like my shirt.

372
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:49,971
Paul Vogler?

373
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:51,793
What the hell?!

374
00:21:51,793 --> 00:21:53,702
Don't stop because of us.
I'd like to ask you

375
00:21:53,702 --> 00:21:55,481
a few questions about Nozomi Sato.

376
00:21:55,481 --> 00:21:57,786
How much do you charge for a massage?

377
00:21:57,786 --> 00:21:59,387
Two hundred dollars.

378
00:21:59,387 --> 00:22:01,974
Bones.
What? That seems way too much.

379
00:22:01,974 --> 00:22:04,533
Her knowledge of skeletal and musculature systems seems

380
00:22:04,533 --> 00:22:06,211
minimal at best.
Right.

381
00:22:06,211 --> 00:22:09,798
Uh, she's not that type of masseuse. So, Nozomi Sato?

382
00:22:09,798 --> 00:22:12,655
Who? You know, the prostitute you like beating up.

383
00:22:12,655 --> 00:22:14,381
I don't know what you're talking about.
Okay, fine.

384
00:22:14,381 --> 00:22:17,075
We'll just go subpoena the phone records from Elegant Escorts.

385
00:22:17,075 --> 00:22:18,530
I saw her a few times.

386
00:22:18,530 --> 00:22:20,511
 Oh, really.
Yeah, to blow off some steam.

387
00:22:20,511 --> 00:22:21,576
You know...

388
00:22:21,978 --> 00:22:24,540
a photographer who did some ads for my firm Oh, really.

389
00:22:25,098 --> 00:22:27,319
he's the one that gave me the Elegant flyer.

390
00:22:27,319 --> 00:22:29,276
Micah Strutt?
Yeah.

391
00:22:29,565 --> 00:22:31,308
I guess he shot for them, too.

392
00:22:31,308 --> 00:22:35,846
You should really focus on the iliocostalis and the longissimus.

393
00:22:35,846 --> 00:22:37,851
That's where most people carry their tension.

394
00:22:37,851 --> 00:22:39,788
Like this.
Oh! Whoa!

395
00:22:40,196 --> 00:22:43,015
Whoa, that's great.
You see? That's what they want.

396
00:22:43,313 --> 00:22:44,952
Not usually.

397
00:22:45,253 --> 00:22:49,627
Bones, she's a "happy ending" masseuse. Okay, "happy ending."

398
00:22:49,965 --> 00:22:51,076
Oh...

399
00:22:52,265 --> 00:22:53,476
What about this girl?

400
00:22:55,353 --> 00:22:56,485
I never met her.

401
00:22:57,491 --> 00:22:59,462
Nozomi was the only escort I was seeing.

402
00:22:59,462 --> 00:23:02,628
You seem to be a fine collector of Asian art.

403
00:23:02,628 --> 00:23:04,997
Do you want to explain the sword
on the wall there, in the background?

404
00:23:04,997 --> 00:23:06,330
It's a Nihonto sword.

405
00:23:06,330 --> 00:23:09,771
It was used by the feudal executioners to behead the condemned.

406
00:23:09,771 --> 00:23:13,379
Yeah, I know. I had to sell it.
I lost a fortune in the market.

407
00:23:13,379 --> 00:23:15,827
How convenient of you to sell the sword off, you know.

408
00:23:15,827 --> 00:23:17,802
Sachi Nakamura was beheaded.

409
00:23:18,256 --> 00:23:20,256
What?
Beheaded.

410
00:23:20,256 --> 00:23:21,879
Hey, I don't know what you're thinking...

411
00:23:21,879 --> 00:23:25,794
Hitting the iliohypogastric nerve can be extremely painful.

412
00:23:27,423 --> 00:23:28,391
Where's the sword now?

413
00:23:28,701 --> 00:23:29,409
Listen...

414
00:23:31,031 --> 00:23:34,352
I'm not saying another word to you people without my lawyer.

415
00:23:34,352 --> 00:23:36,937
Fine. That's fine with us. We'll be in touch.

416
00:23:36,937 --> 00:23:37,977
Come on, Bones.

417
00:23:41,819 --> 00:23:43,330
Oh, she's a quick learner.

418
00:23:43,571 --> 00:23:44,743
Yeah. Very quick.

419
00:23:48,456 --> 00:23:49,075
Hey,

420
00:23:49,075 --> 00:23:51,095
I did a little research on Strutt Photography.

421
00:23:51,095 --> 00:23:54,262
I almost asked Tanaka.
No. Really?

422
00:23:54,262 --> 00:23:57,827
Not that it matters. But he... she/he caught me staring.

423
00:23:57,827 --> 00:23:59,539
I didn't mean to, but I had an opening,

424
00:23:59,539 --> 00:24:02,465
you know, but I didn't know how to
lead off. If I said he/she was a girl

425
00:24:02,465 --> 00:24:04,765
and he/she was a guy, he/she might be offended,

426
00:24:04,765 --> 00:24:06,694
or other way around, same thing.

427
00:24:06,694 --> 00:24:08,907
God, I miss the ease of a simple pronoun.

428
00:24:08,907 --> 00:24:10,444
Yeah, tell me about it.

429
00:24:10,672 --> 00:24:13,145
All right, check out Strutt Photography's Web site.

430
00:24:13,145 --> 00:24:14,995
Now, there's a link to additional services

431
00:24:14,995 --> 00:24:17,483
which requires permission and a password.

432
00:24:17,483 --> 00:24:20,073
I traced the IP address and I found the ftp site

433
00:24:20,073 --> 00:24:23,114
that contains all the uploads. Then I bypassed the password protection

434
00:24:23,114 --> 00:24:25,731
by hacking into the server where his Web address is registered.

435
00:24:25,731 --> 00:24:27,930
Why do I feel like my checking account isn't safe?

436
00:24:27,930 --> 00:24:29,400
Look what Mr. Strutt's been hiding.

437
00:24:31,865 --> 00:24:34,396
These pictures definitely weren't taken at Strutt's studio.

438
00:24:34,396 --> 00:24:37,222
Long lens, foreground objects,

439
00:24:37,222 --> 00:24:39,326
probably taken without the subject's consent.

440
00:24:39,326 --> 00:24:41,517
Classic stalker photos.
Mm-hmm.

441
00:24:41,878 --> 00:24:45,940
If he was stalking Sachi...

442
00:24:55,357 --> 00:24:57,523
Forgive me, Dr. Brennan, but I must ask

443
00:24:57,523 --> 00:25:00,292
if you are familiar with the Shinto idea of kami?

444
00:25:00,836 --> 00:25:03,562
The spiritual essence of an object?
Yes.

445
00:25:03,562 --> 00:25:06,258
I cannot define what is missing from this skull,

446
00:25:06,258 --> 00:25:08,492
how its kami is incomplete.

447
00:25:08,762 --> 00:25:12,215
Maybe because the top of the cranium had been removed.

448
00:25:12,215 --> 00:25:13,427
Perhaps.

449
00:25:14,014 --> 00:25:16,611
I often find that handling the bone gives me insight

450
00:25:16,611 --> 00:25:18,480
that pure science cannot explain.

451
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,249
Well, I find that pure science is the only thing

452
00:25:20,249 --> 00:25:23,982
that gives satisfactory explanations, Dr. Tanaka.

453
00:25:26,235 --> 00:25:28,865
There is something with the temporal bone.

454
00:25:32,191 --> 00:25:33,339
Yes.

455
00:25:33,339 --> 00:25:36,882
The tympanomastoid. A swelling in the air space.

456
00:25:41,863 --> 00:25:46,168
Tympanomastoid hemorrhaging in
the absence of a bleeding diathesis.

457
00:25:46,736 --> 00:25:48,311
The victim was drowned.

458
00:25:49,794 --> 00:25:52,123
Very impressive, Dr. Tanaka.

459
00:25:52,123 --> 00:25:55,049
It wasn't me. It was the kami.

460
00:25:58,177 --> 00:26:00,568
Well, she wasn't killed by whatever pierced her brain.

461
00:26:00,568 --> 00:26:03,944
I aspirated her lungs. Cause of death was drowning.

462
00:26:11,726 --> 00:26:13,384
We need to determine if the victim was drowned

463
00:26:13,384 --> 00:26:15,804
in the marsh or somewhere else.
No problem.

464
00:26:15,804 --> 00:26:17,532
I'll analyze the water samples from the lungs.

465
00:26:17,532 --> 00:26:21,507
Now, I discovered what the splinter from the brain tissue is.

466
00:26:21,507 --> 00:26:25,731
It's pseudosasa japonica. It's arrow bamboo. It's ornamental.

467
00:26:25,731 --> 00:26:27,654
Only grows indoors in this climate.

468
00:26:27,654 --> 00:26:30,072
Sharpened bamboo could easily pierce the skull.

469
00:26:30,549 --> 00:26:31,945
The girl was drowned first,

470
00:26:31,945 --> 00:26:34,355
a mask was put on her, then she was decapitated

471
00:26:34,355 --> 00:26:37,479
and her head was mounted on a bamboo stake?

472
00:26:37,479 --> 00:26:39,518
Yeah, then the head was tossed into the marsh?

473
00:26:39,518 --> 00:26:41,906
Let's find out what kind of water was in her lungs.

474
00:26:55,358 --> 00:26:57,136
She was beautiful, wasn't she?

475
00:27:03,159 --> 00:27:04,491
Yes, she was.

476
00:27:06,412 --> 00:27:07,969
A beautiful young woman.

477
00:27:10,035 --> 00:27:12,558
Which is probably why she came to America.

478
00:27:13,378 --> 00:27:15,235
She felt like a woman

479
00:27:16,456 --> 00:27:19,439
and wanted to be rid of a big brother watching her all the time.

480
00:27:22,671 --> 00:27:25,929
My parents left me and my brother when I was 15.

481
00:27:26,801 --> 00:27:30,099
My brother was the only family that I had then.

482
00:27:31,199 --> 00:27:33,030
But he walked out on me, too.

483
00:27:34,014 --> 00:27:35,294
I'm sorry.

484
00:27:36,241 --> 00:27:38,430
I turned out quite well, actually.

485
00:27:39,770 --> 00:27:42,581
But it would've been nice to have had a brother like you.

486
00:27:46,859 --> 00:27:50,417
According to the FBI logs, she called you everyday.

487
00:27:50,645 --> 00:27:53,801
Often twice a day. And the conversations...

488
00:27:55,053 --> 00:28:00,328
never were less than five minutes and averaged 15 minutes.

489
00:28:01,352 --> 00:28:03,017
This has meaning for you?

490
00:28:04,207 --> 00:28:10,384
Objectively speaking, it would indicate
an irrefutable desire to connect.

491
00:28:12,092 --> 00:28:14,111
A deep and abiding love.

492
00:28:14,349 --> 00:28:17,673
I cannot imagine never talking to her again.

493
00:28:20,741 --> 00:28:23,430
I myself have no one in my life whom I talk to that much.

494
00:28:23,430 --> 00:28:24,776
Outside of work, I mean.

495
00:28:26,737 --> 00:28:28,397
Perhaps that is good.

496
00:28:29,295 --> 00:28:30,577
How so?

497
00:28:30,577 --> 00:28:32,609
I can see how much pain you're in.

498
00:28:36,164 --> 00:28:37,517
Is it worth it...

499
00:28:39,235 --> 00:28:43,110
to have your own happiness so contingent
upon another human being?

500
00:28:46,265 --> 00:28:47,594
If I was willing...

501
00:28:48,632 --> 00:28:50,860
to give up my life for Sachi...

502
00:28:53,883 --> 00:28:57,017
why would I not be willing to risk my happiness for her?

503
00:29:07,180 --> 00:29:09,643
Hodgins analyzed the water in Sachi's lungs.

504
00:29:09,643 --> 00:29:12,854
I found dibromides. It's the active ingredient in algaecides

505
00:29:12,854 --> 00:29:14,493
used to treat water features.

506
00:29:14,493 --> 00:29:17,728
So the victim wasn't drowned in the salt marshes.

507
00:29:17,728 --> 00:29:19,338
She was drowned in a water feature?

508
00:29:19,338 --> 00:29:21,568
Hey, the photographer has a water thing in his lobby.

509
00:29:21,568 --> 00:29:24,289
Feature. Water feature.
I'm not going to say "feature."

510
00:29:24,289 --> 00:29:28,111
It's just weird, okay? I'll say pond or pool. Or thing.

511
00:29:28,111 --> 00:29:29,954
All right, wishing well. Can we just move on?

512
00:29:30,228 --> 00:29:31,902
Hodgins, if we had a sample,

513
00:29:31,902 --> 00:29:35,331
could you isolate a single water feature?
Yeah, I could match profiles.

514
00:29:35,331 --> 00:29:37,787
If you think the photographer is the killer, I want to be there.

515
00:29:37,787 --> 00:29:39,788
Nak, if you budge from the Jeffersonian,

516
00:29:39,788 --> 00:29:42,577
I will have you on the first plane back to Japan.

517
00:29:42,577 --> 00:29:44,890
You understand? You know me. And you know that's true.

518
00:29:49,507 --> 00:29:52,507
You were kind of mean there, Booth.
The man's in big pain, Bones.

519
00:29:52,507 --> 00:29:53,989
Makes it hard for him to hear.

520
00:29:53,989 --> 00:29:56,898
I've never heard of grief affecting auditory acuteness.

521
00:29:56,898 --> 00:29:58,316
Medical fact. Look it up.

522
00:30:04,856 --> 00:30:08,990
Huh. I thought you only did one
shoot with Sachi Nakamura, huh?

523
00:30:09,981 --> 00:30:12,829
Okay, look, this is... it's getting totally out of hand.

524
00:30:13,047 --> 00:30:15,757
Maybe I should get a lawyer.
What's your connection with James Sok?

525
00:30:16,995 --> 00:30:18,572
All I do is give him names, man.

526
00:30:18,572 --> 00:30:21,203
What names?
Names of girls who don't mind doing nude shots.

527
00:30:21,203 --> 00:30:22,776
Oh, a finder's fee?
Yeah.

528
00:30:22,776 --> 00:30:24,349
Yeah.
But, I mean, that's all.

529
00:30:24,349 --> 00:30:25,604
Right. I mean, you do know

530
00:30:25,604 --> 00:30:27,233
what James Sok does with these girls, right?

531
00:30:27,233 --> 00:30:31,679
I mind my own business.
He's a pimp. Which makes you a pimp, too.

532
00:30:31,679 --> 00:30:33,973
What about Sachi?
She wouldn't pose nude.

533
00:30:33,973 --> 00:30:37,421
What about these photos?
What? It's a style, man.

534
00:30:38,088 --> 00:30:39,490
Look, I got the releases that she signed

535
00:30:39,490 --> 00:30:41,243
before we even did it. You want to see 'em?

536
00:30:42,984 --> 00:30:43,997
Yes.

537
00:30:44,296 --> 00:30:45,555
Thank you.

538
00:30:46,075 --> 00:30:48,648
The water at the photographer's studio uses chlorine.

539
00:30:48,648 --> 00:30:51,465
So Sachi was not drowned there?
No, sir.

540
00:30:51,465 --> 00:30:53,051
You should inform Dr. Saroyan.

541
00:30:53,051 --> 00:30:55,394
Yeah, I already have, I just thought

542
00:30:55,394 --> 00:30:58,992
if I were you, I'd want to hear everything from the horse's mouth.
Thank you,

543
00:30:58,992 --> 00:31:00,204
Dr. Hodgins.

544
00:31:04,426 --> 00:31:06,135
Any luck with the microsil?

545
00:31:06,486 --> 00:31:07,215
Yes.

546
00:31:07,215 --> 00:31:09,918
I believe your partly Chinese woman will be able to reconstruct

547
00:31:09,918 --> 00:31:12,277
the tool used to decapitate the victim.

548
00:31:12,514 --> 00:31:15,900
Excuse me?
Hi. I heard that.

549
00:31:16,143 --> 00:31:18,860
Dr. Tanaka means no offense. In Japanese,

550
00:31:19,141 --> 00:31:21,059
that would not sound so insulting.

551
00:31:21,059 --> 00:31:23,792
I will complete my work and give you the results.

552
00:31:28,545 --> 00:31:29,959
So, how are you holding up?

553
00:31:30,781 --> 00:31:32,591
I should have known the life she was living.

554
00:31:33,811 --> 00:31:36,077
Listen, your sister wasn't a prostitute.

555
00:31:37,149 --> 00:31:39,009
Her roommate was.

556
00:31:41,836 --> 00:31:43,234
It was a warning.

557
00:31:43,997 --> 00:31:45,764
What was?

558
00:31:45,764 --> 00:31:47,746
Putting Sachi's head on the spike.

559
00:31:48,871 --> 00:31:50,432
In feudal Japan,

560
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,962
a traitor's head was placed on a pole as a warning

561
00:31:54,213 --> 00:31:56,084
that others should fear the warlords.

562
00:31:56,843 --> 00:31:57,701
Right.

563
00:31:57,701 --> 00:32:00,418
And she was wearing her roommate Nozomi's mask.

564
00:32:00,625 --> 00:32:01,277
Yes.

565
00:32:01,277 --> 00:32:03,321
Because the warning was meant for Nozomi.

566
00:32:04,410 --> 00:32:06,842
Nozomi sees the head and knows she must run.

567
00:32:06,842 --> 00:32:10,654
And she disposes of it so that no
one will think that she killed Sachi.

568
00:32:13,066 --> 00:32:15,191
But what did my sister do?

569
00:32:20,448 --> 00:32:22,432
If Sachi was a good girl...

570
00:32:27,728 --> 00:32:29,888
what did she do to get killed?

571
00:32:59,580 --> 00:33:01,190
Picked up her roommate trying to leave the country.

572
00:33:01,190 --> 00:33:04,799
She's still pretty freaked out. She saw
her best friend's head on a spike.

573
00:33:04,799 --> 00:33:06,914
Trauma like that could take years to assimilate.

574
00:33:06,914 --> 00:33:08,376
Yeah, we don't have years, okay?

575
00:33:08,376 --> 00:33:11,063
So get in there anwork your magic. All right? Go.

576
00:33:25,870 --> 00:33:29,380
We'll keep you safe, Nozomi. You don't have to worry.

577
00:33:33,143 --> 00:33:34,392
Can I get you anything?

578
00:33:42,703 --> 00:33:43,766
Look.

579
00:33:44,502 --> 00:33:45,963
I know you feel alone.

580
00:33:46,525 --> 00:33:49,279
You think that no one else could
understand what you went through.

581
00:33:49,279 --> 00:33:50,407
And no one could.

582
00:33:50,407 --> 00:33:53,935
But that doesn't mean that you can't be helped

583
00:33:54,403 --> 00:33:57,609
We can prevent anything like this from happening again,

584
00:33:57,609 --> 00:33:59,617
to you or anyone else.

585
00:34:00,526 --> 00:34:02,241
If you tell us who did this, 

586
00:34:02,467 --> 00:34:04,853
Nozomi, we can protect you.

587
00:34:06,142 --> 00:34:08,215
And we'll make sure that you get home safely.

588
00:34:37,411 --> 00:34:39,912
Got the genal shape from Dr. Tanaks cast,

589
00:34:39,912 --> 00:34:41,903
but we still need to fill in the details.

590
00:34:41,903 --> 00:34:46,776
Does the basic shape resemble a katana
sword a Japanese dough knife?

591
00:34:47,048 --> 00:34:49,935
Well, it's too early to say.
The proment residual striae indicate that

592
00:34:49,935 --> 00:34:52,566
that a power tool was not used and that the blade was curved.

593
00:34:52,566 --> 00:34:55,320
It has combination of serrated and plain edging.

594
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,646
All right, so there goes the katana sword.

595
00:34:57,646 --> 00:34:59,184
From the breakaway spur,

596
00:34:59,184 --> 00:35:01,841
I could see that there are approximately six teeth

597
00:35:01,841 --> 00:35:04,216
per inch on the serrated section.

598
00:35:04,867 --> 00:35:06,142
Okay, anything else?
There also

599
00:35:06,142 --> 00:35:07,856
appears to be something that catches on the bonee

600
00:35:07,856 --> 00:35:11,000
as it's pulled back, like a hook near the blade's point.

601
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:12,442
Ooh, that's good.

602
00:35:13,629 --> 00:35:15,114
I've never seen a knife like that.

603
00:35:15,114 --> 00:35:17,500
Perhaps there was an error in the topography of my mold.

604
00:35:17,500 --> 00:35:20,412
No, I've seen this knife before. It's a marine knife.

605
00:35:20,412 --> 00:35:23,236
The hook is used for cutting linen cord.

606
00:35:23,236 --> 00:35:27,812
Wait a minute... James Sok, the owner of Elegant Escorts,

607
00:35:27,812 --> 00:35:29,491
doesn't he live on a boat?

608
00:35:35,209 --> 00:35:38,041
So what was it, Sok? You wanted to keep, uh, Nozomi in line,

609
00:35:38,041 --> 00:35:39,813
so you used Sachi as an example?

610
00:35:39,813 --> 00:35:42,634
Sachi... she doesn't even work for you.

611
00:35:42,837 --> 00:35:43,883
Where did you get that? 

612
00:35:44,229 --> 00:35:47,227
We have a search warrant. These were tak from your boat.

613
00:35:49,260 --> 00:35:53,286
The serrations are consistent with the tool markings on the bone.

614
00:35:53,286 --> 00:35:54,628
I didn't kill anyone.

615
00:35:54,628 --> 00:35:57,974
Then you're going to have to explain why there's blood on your knife.

616
00:36:03,106 --> 00:36:04,128
It's clean.

617
00:36:06,028 --> 00:36:06,892
What?

618
00:36:06,892 --> 00:36:08,509
There's no blood on the knife.

619
00:36:14,059 --> 00:36:15,694
Yeah, well, I'm sure there's another knife.

620
00:36:15,694 --> 00:36:18,289
We'll just tear your place apart until we find one, that's all.

621
00:36:20,039 --> 00:36:21,135
Booth?

622
00:36:22,383 --> 00:36:24,036
He didn't clean the sheath.

623
00:36:24,513 --> 00:36:27,037
Hah... look at that.

624
00:36:27,477 --> 00:36:30,498
Why don't you just save the taxpayers some money and confess.

625
00:36:30,498 --> 00:36:32,473
Why aren't you offer me a deal instead?
You're really

626
00:36:32,473 --> 00:36:34,561
in no bargaining position right now, Mr. Sok.

627
00:36:34,561 --> 00:36:36,680
Evidence proves that you killed Sachi.

628
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,027
No, it doesn't.

629
00:36:38,027 --> 00:36:41,024
It proves that he cut off her head. She died by drowning.

630
00:36:41,272 --> 00:36:42,683
Very good.

631
00:36:44,445 --> 00:36:46,793
Sachi stuck her nose in where it didn't belong.

632
00:36:46,793 --> 00:36:49,103
If you want to know who killed her, you'll cut me a deal.

633
00:36:49,103 --> 00:36:50,207
Huh. Right.

634
00:36:51,193 --> 00:36:54,127
You cut off her head and you stuck it on a spike

635
00:36:54,127 --> 00:36:57,593
to keep your girls in line, and you want me to cut you a deal?

636
00:36:58,386 --> 00:37:00,499
Yeah, that's right.

637
00:37:14,444 --> 00:37:16,889
What do you want to do, Nak?
I want to kill him.

638
00:37:18,787 --> 00:37:22,792
Look, he could give us Sachi's murderer.

639
00:37:23,354 --> 00:37:24,911
And then he goes free?

640
00:37:25,119 --> 00:37:27,371
The man who put my sister's head on a spike?

641
00:37:30,652 --> 00:37:32,317
We don't cut this deal, then...

642
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:34,783
her murderer could walk.

643
00:37:37,326 --> 00:37:39,139
It's your case, Booth.

644
00:37:40,534 --> 00:37:42,326
What I want doesn't matter.

645
00:37:43,290 --> 00:37:44,846
To me, it does.

646
00:37:45,109 --> 00:37:46,869
And it would to Sachi.

647
00:37:56,358 --> 00:37:57,603
Cut the deal.

648
00:38:03,367 --> 00:38:04,445
Paul Vogler.

649
00:38:04,665 --> 00:38:07,182
He was a good customer, one of my best.

650
00:38:07,182 --> 00:38:10,386
Always wanted Nozomi. But he liked to get rough.

651
00:38:10,386 --> 00:38:12,239
Sometimes maybe too rough.

652
00:38:14,001 --> 00:38:15,196
One day that girl, Sachi, barges

653
00:38:15,196 --> 00:38:17,786
into Vogler's place, screaming, saying she was going

654
00:38:17,786 --> 00:38:21,668
to call her cop brother if Vogler ever touch her friend Nozomi again.

655
00:38:21,977 --> 00:38:24,173
Vogler pushes her into his koi pond,

656
00:38:24,173 --> 00:38:26,130
holds her down just to shut her up.

657
00:38:26,479 --> 00:38:27,916
Idiot kills her.

658
00:38:28,146 --> 00:38:29,937
He paid me to clean up the mess.

659
00:38:29,937 --> 00:38:32,579
So yeah, I put the girl's head in Nozomi's apartment.

660
00:38:32,794 --> 00:38:35,850
And Nozomi took off, like I knew she would.

661
00:38:35,850 --> 00:38:37,673
I had business to save.

662
00:38:37,673 --> 00:38:41,374
But I didn't kill anyone. It was Vogler.

663
00:39:08,489 --> 00:39:09,556
Hey, Nak.

664
00:39:11,767 --> 00:39:14,222
Nozomi has been cleared to leave by immigration.

665
00:39:14,222 --> 00:39:16,184
I will see that she gets home safely.

666
00:39:16,184 --> 00:39:17,476
Thank you, Nak.

667
00:39:17,476 --> 00:39:19,670
And Sachi can rest with our parents.

668
00:39:20,753 --> 00:39:23,958
If the teachings are correct, she will be reborn.

669
00:39:23,958 --> 00:39:26,368
And Sok and Vogler will have to answer for their actions.

670
00:39:26,368 --> 00:39:28,877
That is highly improbable.

671
00:39:30,317 --> 00:39:32,334
But I hope that it's true.

672
00:39:34,424 --> 00:39:36,099
I am forever in your debt.

673
00:39:39,700 --> 00:39:43,976
My friend, one of those good Japanese beers will be just fine.

674
00:39:44,323 --> 00:39:46,008
Oh, I prefer sake.

675
00:39:47,522 --> 00:39:48,636
Sake.

676
00:39:49,758 --> 00:39:52,115
We'll let you know when it's time to go, okay?

677
00:40:11,807 --> 00:40:15,916
 So... no one asked Tanaka?
It doesn't matter, remember?

678
00:40:16,117 --> 00:40:18,054
Yeah, yeah, no, I know.

679
00:40:18,054 --> 00:40:20,678
It's Tanaka's life. We are not children.

680
00:40:20,678 --> 00:40:21,708
Very good.

681
00:40:22,167 --> 00:40:23,521
Oh, this is ridiculous.

682
00:40:29,743 --> 00:40:31,014
Hey, Haru.

683
00:40:31,546 --> 00:40:33,519
It was great working with you.

684
00:40:33,519 --> 00:40:35,194
I hope to see you again soon.

685
00:40:46,744 --> 00:40:48,942
Okay, then. Have a great trip back.

686
00:40:49,302 --> 00:40:49,977
Okay?

687
00:40:50,516 --> 00:40:51,470
Okay.

688
00:41:00,215 --> 00:41:01,259
It moved.

689
00:41:01,787 --> 00:41:02,795
He's a guy.

690
00:41:05,214 --> 00:41:06,152
Yeah.

691
00:41:11,927 --> 00:41:14,983
There, huh? Hey! It's good for what ails you.

692
00:41:15,258 --> 00:41:18,833
Usually in this situation, we'd have alcohol.
Which is exactly

693
00:41:18,833 --> 00:41:23,015
why we should do this, okay, from time to time.

694
00:41:23,015 --> 00:41:26,446
Oh, no.

695
00:41:26,446 --> 00:41:28,230
Yum, hmm?
Here you go.

696
00:41:31,009 --> 00:41:32,258
Will he recover?

697
00:41:32,967 --> 00:41:33,932
Your friend Ken?

698
00:41:33,932 --> 00:41:35,155
From losing his sister?

699
00:41:35,155 --> 00:41:38,320
Um... well, you don't recover from something like that.

700
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,482
You just survive.
People die.

701
00:41:41,482 --> 00:41:44,477
There's a fault in the design if we can't recover from it.

702
00:41:44,477 --> 00:41:47,141
"Fault in the design"? What are we, coffee pots?

703
00:41:47,141 --> 00:41:51,954
I just mean that we should be designed
so that we can handle the worst.

704
00:41:51,954 --> 00:41:53,978
We are designed that way.

705
00:41:53,978 --> 00:41:56,755
We aren't sent anything that we can't handle.

706
00:41:57,217 --> 00:41:59,827
I'm not convinced that loving someone is worth it.

707
00:41:59,827 --> 00:42:02,456
I got a son, and it's worth it.

708
00:42:02,907 --> 00:42:04,340
Even if he died?
Whoa.

709
00:42:04,340 --> 00:42:06,165
Bones, don't even say anything like that.

710
00:42:06,165 --> 00:42:07,874
Don't even put that out there.

711
00:42:07,874 --> 00:42:12,346
It is worth it and everything around it is worth it.

712
00:42:14,790 --> 00:42:16,692
Every moment, everything...

713
00:42:18,538 --> 00:42:21,800
is worth it, so eat the ice cream before it melts.

714
00:42:28,075 --> 00:42:30,236
I wish it was beer.
Right.

715
00:42:30,236 --> 00:42:31,292
You know what?

716
00:42:34,762 --> 00:42:35,634
Okay.

717
00:42:38,118 --> 00:42:39,101
You're right.

718
00:42:41,425 --> 00:42:42,764
Now, this is what I'm talking about.

719
00:42:42,764 --> 00:42:46,982
Good. We agree to understand that this is worth it.
