"A horse is a horse, of course, of course"
21 September 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The Jeffersonian team quickly finds many attributes of the victim, Ed Milner, that point to him being treated as a horse, down to the contents of his stomach. Mr. Ed's most recent credit card charge brings Boones to a rural inn where they discover something that makes teenagers watching this episode with their parents very uncomfortable. A pony play fetish convention is taking place. With the details of the murder being so close to the way a real horse is put down and lovingly buried, it's obvious who the murderer is. One of the ponies, Sparkles, is a lawyer, but before they arrive, Mr. Ed's rider, Annie Oakley, confesses all. She couldn't handle coming in second in Mr. Ed's life.

Angela gets hypnotized in hopes of finding her estranged husband's name. While under, she sees a wasp in place of where her husband should be. This is enough information for her to remember the book she was reading around the time of the wedding (an actual book about giant wasps spawned by a nuclear test gone awry). In the book, she finds a Polaroid photo with the name Grayson on the back.

It's a bit upsetting to see Booth so prude with his traditional views on sex, but we do get a sultry scene between him and Brennan at the end. Get together already!
