Bones 11/8
Last night’s Bones was pretty good - next week’s looks even better.
Bones and Booth were investigating the discover of two bodies off the interstate near Las Vegas. The first body is that of a federal prosecutor who has been missing for five years. The second, fresher body is determined to be that of a female boxer, the pair go undercover.

To find the killer, it becomes apparent that Booth and Bones are going to need to get into the illegal glove-free boxing competitions. Bones picks a conservative school teacher (Roxie) outfit. Booth has something else in mind –something skimpy, tight fitting and black. Using her idea of what her father’s favorite silent screen actress would have sounded like, Bones comes up with a pleasantly amusing act.
Back home, the crew have uncovered substances, pine tar, on both bodies. The boxer was badly beaten. They figure an opponent must have done it, but after testing her, they realize the injuries are from a baseball bat.
It appears that to get invited to these illegal boxing matches, one must have plenty of cash. They do finally access one and the boxer attacks Booth - he passes out. Turns out that boxer is an undercover cop that Booth knows. They decide the best plan of action is to have Booth sign up as a boxer. The ring leader changes Booth’s opponent at the last minute and it looks like Booth has met his match. Bones is able to help him win the match by picking out the other boxer’s weak spots.
When Bones goes to claim her winnings, the bookie refuses to pay stating that somehow they cheated. He also tells Booth that he will be fighting again, like it or not. When they are “escorted” back to their hotel, Bones and Booth manage to get the gym owner to talk. He gives names and reasons and the pair are able to arrest the illegal boxing ring (mobsters).
