Booth and Brennan have brought Rutledge in for questioning, because he created security holes at the airport to allow Antonov to bring in the briefcase. Rutledge admits to creating the hole to bring in extra diamonds which would be exchanged for political prisoners in Pakistan. Apparently Dorit read online chatter about the exchange and told him to mind his own business. Booth wonders if there was something besides diamonds in the brief case.
At the lab, Cam tells Angela that the CIA is coming to collect Antonov and Dorit’s bodies in 10 minutes and taking over the investigation. Angela’s still trying to decode the photo.
Booth is trying to get Wendell to put the pieces together by using hockey analogies. Wendell begins to list Dorit’s injuries and they determine cause of deal. Wendell realizes that the holes in Dorit’s bones were caused by a laser (like a diamond-cutting laser). Brennan says that Lena (Antonov’s boss) would have access to such a laser. Rutledge and his goons come in and Booth says they figured it out. Dorit knew Antonov was working for Lena and when Rutledge wouldn’t listen, he decided to take care of it himself. Then Lena kills Dorit.
At the FBI, Booth, Rutledge and Brennan are questioning Lena and reveal that they have the murder weapons she used. Rutledge says that she doesn’t know where the briefcase is and is shocked how Dorit stood up to her torture. Angel calls and says she decoded the photo: there was a map hidden on Dorit’s hand. So the gang heads down to some storage lockers and find the case. They open it to reveal a USB stick. According to Booth, sometimes information could be more important than diamonds. Bullsh*t. I’d rather have the shiny diamonds. But we don’t find out what the information is. ARGH! Cut to Booth, Rutledge and Brennan seeing a star being put on the CIA wall of fallen agents in memory of Dorit for his heroism.
At the Jeffersonian the next day, Wendell’s saying his goodbyes when Cam comes in to announce that someone mysteriously donated money for Wendell’s scholarship. He realizes that it was probably someone in the lab and thanks them all. When he goes back to work, Cam says that they got enough money for three scholarships (so it looks like Cam, Brennan and Hodgins all donated money). Cute.
Booth is showing Brennan how to fix pipes at his apartment. Booth puts his hand over hers on a pipe and he says he’s happy they don’t keep secrets from each other. She says that she feels close to him and they test the water. The pipe holds for a minute and then bursts. We fade out on Brennan complaining about her soaked Rolex.
Alright, complicated mystery, but cute episode. I better see some Booth biceps next week though.

I was glad to see that Wendell gets to be the full-time replacement intern. Unless they use the money for the other 2 scholarships to bring back 2 more. Please, can we stick with Wendell?
I still think Angela and Hodgins have the best chemistry on the show.

And hank God for that, as I couldn't possibly fit another show on Thursdays!
Great recap, clarissa.:)
