But it wouldnt be aBonesholiday without a dead body, and weve got a significant one tonight.
Subtlety is not in the cards for anyone today.
He was just there to plant bugs.
Kate took Vivians laptop to learn more about The American, but she couldnt crack the code.
She swears thats all there is to it.
Intern-of-the-week Rodolfo manages to extract some from the marrow, and theyre in business.
Vivian was supposed to meet The American at an inn that caters to the Washington elite.
Everyone pays cash, there are no phones or WiFi, and all signals are jammed.
A staffer also remembers seeing Vivian at the hotel about six months ago.
Her husband caught her in an affair, and he seemed ready to kill her.
For one, theres the divorce.
Theres also the fact that he shoved her into a table.
That guy was Ryan Gill.
But heres the twist: Gill wasnt sleeping with Vivian.
Gill was The American.
When Vivians ex-husband caught them together, she destroyed her own marriage so that protect her informant.
(Again, theres no subtlety tonight, and I love it.)
But he also reveals that 10 minutes ago, the Jeffersonian found evidence that Greystream head Blackthorn tortured Vivian.
If Blackthorn is the killer, then Gills life is no longer in danger.
Booth takes him into custody asJoan Callamezzos Gotcha Dancersflood the room.
It just doesnt happen to be true this time.
Gill killed her for putting innocent people at risk.
Then again, theyre more than capable of doing that on their own.
Booth says that hes going to destroy it, which seems…excessive?
There must be some actionable information on there.
What about his whole go after the people in charge argument?
Maybe Brennan will help him find a compromise; shes done it before.
Theres both turkey and faux-furkey on that table for a reason its a metaphor for theirlives.
Now sit down, and enjoy the feast.
