"Perfect"

The first of hopefully many episodes about the fascinating Gormogon.

The murdered girl, Kristen, proves to be one of the scientists working on the widow collection. Very interestingly, the artifacts have been tied to a specific group, Gormogon who wanted to eradicate the influence of the Illuminati and Freemasons. Fascinating, hope they elaborate further.

"No shooting of the squints tonight, sorry." Does it not occur to Zach and Hodgins to perhaps warn people before throwing a body off a building? Why is the victim's father allowed to watch the interrogation?

Everyone wanted it to be a serial killer because then it's not one of their own but also because a serial killer is more glamorous and exciting. Despite her work on the Gormogon artifacts, instead she gets killed because she stumbled onto a smuggling operation. Wrong place, wrong time.

Very good episode, found out more about the mysterious artifacts and an in-house murder investigation.moreless

Great episode. Hart Hanson, the rest of the scriptwriters and the director manage to make the viewer forget that you don't actually leave the Jeffersonian for 90% of the episode.

It's a classic in-house whodunnit with Gorgonzola (sorry... Gormogon :P) acting as the red herring amidst extra-martial affairs and a smuggling operation. The murder mystery is superbly supported by the humour between the main characters that Bones is so famous for. And it's great to see the Angelator making a significant contribution to the solving of the case.

Episode Highlights: Booth guessing Brennan's passwords "Daffodil, Daisy Jupiter."

Interplay between Booth, Cam and Cam's sister Felicia

Guy chat between Hodgins and Booth

The sweet B&B ending.moreless

In this episode of Bones, the following happens. We open this episode with burnt remains being found in the Jeffersonian building's incinerator. We learn that the victim worked at the Jeffersonian and so does the killer. When Angela looks at the skull, she sees a face, but doesn't tell Bones or Cam about it, instead, she leaves the room. Soon she tells Bones that she has IDed the victim and that it is Kristen, who worked as an intern. We learn that she and Angela had had lunches a few times and that she was dating someone else who worked there, and that he is a married man. Cam asks Booth if he will pretend to be her boyfriend, at a party for her father's 60th birthday. Soon when standing by a window talking about the case, a body falls down on to the ground below. And when Booth and Bones race outside, we see all security guards there holding Zach and Hodgins. It looks like just another one of their experiments. We soon learn that the victim was stabbed to death, before her fall. Cam's sister picks Cam and Booth up for the party and when Cam goes to get something, her sister kisses Booth. Soon the main suspect is found dead, after apparently hanging himself. Soon the team learn that the death of the intern was in fact an accident. Soon the team find out who killed and staged the suicide and soon he is arrested.moreless

It's like Clue. Murder in the Jeffersonian strikes fear into the hearts of its employees. Two unexplained murders cast suspicion over the squints and their friends at the lab.

It's like clue. If you like the board game then you'll like this episode. The tone of the episode is really eerie. Everything down to the transition slides are creepy. The producers behind this episode really got the job right. While it could be argued that episode is wildly misleading, which I think it is, the twists and turns only make the episode better. At the beginning we think it's connected to the gormogon case. Then the head honcho at the Jeffersonian threatens Angela and it gave me the wiggins. While this doesn't clearly through us off the track, it's pretty spooky. The music and background noises in this episode are perfectly in line with the atmosphere of the installment. Overall I think The Intern in the Incinerator is well-crafted and out of the ordinary.moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- During the interrogation of Dr. Klimkew, Booth is playing with a pair of yellow dice. In "The Woman in the Tunnel" he was holding a pair of red dice while interrogating someone. Edit
- When Brennan is changing her password she is covering the screen, but that doesn't make sense because almost all password-entering is protected and the passwords appear on the screen as stars or dots. She should have covered the keyboard instead. Edit
Notes
ADD NOTES
- The cuts between scenes, along with the cuts to and from commercial breaks, are done using smoke. A similar approach to cuts has been done before, such as in the "Woman in the Sand" episode where cuts were done with poker chips. Edit

- Tyler Neville: It's an extinct group dedicated to eradicating the influence of the Freemasons and Illuminati in Europe in the 18th Century. The Ancient Noble Order of the Gormogon was a short-lived 18th century society that left no records of its real goals or aspirations. They were first heard of in 1724, in a notice published in the London Daily Post. The aim of the society (in which Phillip, Duke of Wharington held a high place) was probably to hold up Freemasonry to ridicule. No one ever heard of the society after Phillip's death in 1731. Edit
- Booth: Dr. Kevorkian has a doctorate. Dr. Jack Kevorkian is a pathologist. He is best known for his opinion that every terminally ill patient has the right to die and that physicians should help them by assisting the suicide. He was on trial several times for assisting in the euthanasia process and recently served 8 years in jail. Edit
- Dr. Bancroft: The guilt being great, the fear doth still exceed; and extreme fear can neither fight nor fly, but coward-like with trembling terror die. This is a stanza from William Shakespeare's narrative poem "The Rape of Lucrece". Edit
