BOOTH: And you caned him? BOOTH: Oh no, it's the vessel in which the wine is transformed into the blood of Christ... don't touch it, no...
BRENNAN: It is going to be touched, Booth - it's silver and these little eagles are a common Napoleonic motif. BOOTH: You know, St Agatha's has been a dumping ground for troubled priests for some time, so it's reasonable to suggest that... you're one of them? BRENNAN: He would have been buried about three years ago. BRENNAN: When did you say the last person was buried here? CAM: Say, an old man. Coffins were bursting out of the ground. FATHER DONLAN: On one condition. I don't believe it was murder. Someone was digging in the cemetery and broke the water main, resurrecting the dead.
Plan: A: Brennan; Q: Who believes one of the bodies was buried five years ago with no coffin? A: Brennan and Zack examine corpses; Q: What do Brennan and Zack do? A: their coffins; Q: What have the corpses spilled out of? A: a burst water main; Q: What caused the corpses to spill out of their coffins? A: St. Agatha; Q: What church grounds are the bodies in the cemetery on? A: the individual bodies; Q: What do Brennan and Zack identify to be put back in their proper place? A: one skeleton; Q: What is out of place in the cemetery? A: Father Donlan; Q: Who runs the church? A: at least 50 years; Q: How long had the bodies been buried for? A: the validity; Q: What do Booth and Brennan argue about religion? Summary: Brennan and Zack examine corpses, which have been spilled out of their coffins, due to a burst water main in an old cemetery on the St. Agatha church grounds. However, as they identify the individual bodies to be put back in their proper place, they find one skeleton that is out of place. Father Donlan, who runs the church, says all these bodies had been buried for at least 50 years and yet Brennan believes one of them was buried five years ago with no coffin. When it is confirmed the deceased was murdered, Booth and Brennan investigate the priests and administrator of the church and argue about the validity of religion.
