TEXT: "The Secret In the Soil" [SCENE_BREAK] ACT ONE (Opens: BOOTH, BRENNAN and SWEETS and in SWEET'S office in session.) SWEETS: Okay, Dr. Brennan, Agent Booth. Together. A little closer. Okay, yeah, that's perfect. Beautiful. Now keeping your back straight, I want you each to lean forward. BOOTH: No. SWEETS: Excuse me? BRENNAN: Come on, Booth. I'm sure this is just one of those meaningless exercises meant to illustrate the importance of supporting each other. BOOTH: We agreed to see another therapist, not be action figures for a 12-year-old. SWEETS: I'm 22, Agent Booth. I have a doctorate in psychology from the University of Pennsylvania, where my dissertation on the effects of job stress was published. BOOTH: That's great. I'm sure your mother is really proud of you, Sweets. SWEETS: Dr. Sweets, or Lance, you know, if you're more comfortable with informality, but I'd prefer, out of respect for each other and the process of psychotherapy, that we at least try to, uh... BOOTH: Sign the forms so I can get out of this suit and I could have a Saturday night. BRENNAN: I don't care how young you are. I've never believed in psychotherapy. SWEETS Agent Booth, Dr. Brennan, this isn't a game. The FBI is considering severing your partnership. BRENNAN: What? BOOTH: Why? SWEETS: Why? Dude, you arrested her father. BRENNAN: He was just doing his job. SWEETS: Yeah, but come on, he, like, he arrested your father. He's going to have to be a witness against him. Circumstances such as these tend to stir up a lot of scary feelings. BOOTH: I don't have scary feelings. Maybe you need a little night-light at night to sleep. SWEETS: Agent Booth, you've been trying to intimidate me since the moment you stepped in here
SUMMARY:
Booth and Brennan are called to investigate a decomposed body found on the grounds of an organic composting site. The body, belonging to the founder of an organic supermarket chain, was indicated by its unusually high temperature to have been incinerated. The team discovers a double homicide when flesh from another body is found, which turns out to have belonged to the first victim's daughter. Meanwhile, the FBI forces Booth and Brennan to undergo psychiatric counseling with Dr. Lance Sweets .
