“The Doom in the Gloom” · Season 8, Episode 19

In this episode: Jack Hodgins (3), Cam (3), Temperance Brennan (2), Seeley Booth (2), Angela Montenegro (1), Lance Sweets (1), Daisy Wick (1)

[discussing cause of death] But we can't be certain certain. Just mostly certain. [Cam looks at her in bewilderment]

"Certain" is an absolute, Miss Wick. You can't be "mostly certain".

"Mostly certain" is good for me.

[sees Hodgins is about to do an experiment with a shotgun and comes over] Oh no no no no no....what–– [sees Hodgins and Daisy] Really?

[Daisy hands Cam mufflers]

[aiming shotgun at test dummy] Fire in the––

[Shotgun shoots out flames like a dragon's breath and the test dummy catches on fire]

...hole. [in awe] [turns back to Cam and Daisy, who are both stunned and speechless] Sorry. Trigger was a little more sensitive than I thought.

[Cam watches on as the test dummy burns]

[Sweets is on the phone with an insurance agent.]

Sorry.

Nah, it's ok. You're all good with the move? You need any help?

No, but thanks.

[looks at Sweets] All right. You sure checked the building out for asbestos and plumbing leaks and cracks and the foundation...

Yeah. All good.

'Cause I don't wanna hear any crazy excuses from you that you've gotta move back in.

[smiles] Not gonna happen. I'm set.

[unconvinced] You're ok living in a building full of shrinks.

Hey, you know, we have a lot in common, plus we have the skills to work out our disagreements in a healthy and constructive manner. [pats Booth on the back, grins] I'm gonna miss you too, Agent Booth.

[unamused] Right. Yeah. Well, I see all the time here at work. Plus I get my tub back and I won't have to look at the stupid pomegranate juice in my refrigerator.

You still haven't tried it yet.

No, I haven't. That's called shrink juice.

[shrugs] It's just pomegranate juice.

Why don't you gather all your new neighbors together and you can have a shrink juice party? [walks into his office]

That's good.

[shuts office door] Enjoy that!

[Cam and Angela see Hodgins setting up a cannon he "borrowed" from the Civil War collection for an experiment.]

This is not necessary, Hodgins. I already double-checked the figures. A cannonball fractured our victim's leg.

[while working] And I am not doubting that, Angie.

Then, why exactly are you doing this?

[excitedly] Have we all forgotten the concept of the double blind study?

[unimpressed] Doesn't apply to artillery.

Theories are improved as more evidence is gathered, so that accuracy and prediction improves over time. [Cam shakes her head] For that we need independent strands of evidence from a single foundational source. You cannot argue with that.

[subtly to Cam] So he's never shot the cannon?

Excuse me for loving my work. Goggles and ear protection, please. [hands Angela and Cam goggles and mufflers]

[...]

[Hodgins fires the cannon]

We have corroboration which is exactly what we want as scientists.

[grins] Of course. Now clean up this mess.

One more?

No.

It's all set up.

No. [turns and walks away with Angela]

[pleads] I made another cannonball!

No.

[...]

[out of Hodgins' earshot] That was actually awesome.

Totally. He must never know.

[grins at the sight of Booth in the "ookey room"] I cannot believe you're here. You hate the lab.

[Sweets' housemates Janet and Chrissie have come to help Sweets move]

CChrissie

[to Booth and Brennan] Nice to meet you, Mr. and Mrs. Sweets.

[stunned] Ohhh–– We're not....

[shakes head] Woah...

[...]

JJanet

[to Sweets on the way out] Your dad is hot!

[grins at Booth] Apparently you're hot, DAD!

Wow. Really. Did you just see that?
