All right, up next, another checker box regular.

The smooth and smoky voice of chris calabasa.

should've left that song in the shower.

Couldn't listen to you butcher it again.

All right, chris.

Bastard took my tune.

Play "piano man."

That's original.

* Well, we're all in the mood for a melody... *

Every bone appears to be broken.

bless you.

Thank you.

Pelvic fragments suggest it's a male.

are you okay?

Thank you, fine. Just...

particles from the cut grass

are causing his mast cells to release inflammatory mediators.

It's just allergies, bones.

Yeah, that's what I said.

Given the degree of decomp,

he's been dead a couple of weeks.

Body dump?

Lividity's indeterminate.

How does a former sniper have a grass allergy?

I mean, wouldn't a sneeze give away your position?

Bones, okay, I worked in the desert--

it was sand, no grass.

It's the crunching that got my attention.

Well, did you see the body before it crunched?

It's not my fault.

You know, johnson grass is eight feet high and dense.

It's like driving in the dark.

Wow, you must've been driving fast.

I had an internet date. I wanted to get home to shower.

She's probably still waiting for me at the falafel place.

you know,johnson grass lets off a ton of pollen, man.

Your eyes could swell up.

If your throat closes...

allergies, okay? I'm fine.

You didn't by any chance see a head, did you?

The head's missing?

I don't see itor any skull fragments.

Sorry.

Well, I've got some brain matter here,

so he had to have a head at some point.

Found it.

Oh, my date's not gonna believe this.

The blade must've severed just below the c-5 vertebra

and the force of the impact

propelled the head into the grille.

So, presumably, he was killed,

decapitated and mulched.

Wow, could it get any worse for this guy?

the bones are dense with a high degree of robusticity.

Well, that's consistent with his musculature.

The guy was built.

He was probably an athlete. I bet he was hot.

Yeah, well, now he's really not.

I think he had a cold.

Looks like it was a pretty bad one.

No, I found traces of tea and honey in his stomach

and the remains of a throat lozenge.

Oh, wow.

Victim watch. It's totally cool.

Measures heart rate, calories burned, speed, distance.

Jock-- I rest my case.

My rimen is easily completed in my apartment--

treadmill for 30 minutes, a hundred sit-ups,

push-ups and leg lifts and 20 minutes of free weights.

I'm deceptively strong.

I'm deceived.

Hey, odontology got a match.

Tommy sour.

He was reported missing two weeks ago.

I hear someone in there.

Hey, break down the door.

It hurts my shoulder when I break down the door.

what is that annoying noise?

You don't just walk in...

I'm sorry, I had my earplugs in.

Can I help you with something?

Fbi.Special agent booth.

This here is dr. Temperance brennan from the jeffersonian.

You reported tommy sour missing?

Yeah. A couple weeks ago. He lives in the unit next door.

Can we come in?

Excuse the mess. I have a show in a month.

You're influenced by the neo-expressionists.

No, don't even look at that.That is crap.

there it goes again.

I can't focus.

That alarm has been beeping every two minutes

ever since tommy went missing.

Yeah, you know what? That is annoying.

Yes. It's why I've got the earplugs.

The cops first showed up, I asked them to unplug it.They didn'T.

Maybe you guys could.

Mr. Matthews,tommy sour is dead.

Oh, god.

Before he went missing,was there anything unusual about his behavior?

Well, I didn't know him all that well.

You reported him missing

yeah, well, his mail started piling up on his front door,

and then that damn alarm clock... it's driving me crazy.

this sculpture is very impressive.

Yeah, it's from my pre-alarm clock period.

What about strangers?

Any new faces around here?

Oh, wait, yeah. Fat pam.

Excuse me?

Fat pam.She was one of tommy's clients.

I thought you didn't know him that well?

Well, he was my neighbor.

If we took the garbage out,

we saw each other,we'd talk a little bit.

You know what it's like.

Anyway, tommy was fat pam's trainer

at, um, valera wellness.

Must you call her "fat" pam?

That's what he called her.

It's not like tommy was the nicest guy who ever lived.

She wasn't really all that fat even.

You mean overweight.

Fat is a deposit found beneath the skin.

It consists of lipids.

Okay, sure.

Pam just wasn't one of those fitness robots

that tommy would spend his time with.

She started following tommy home from the gym.

And she'd sit out on the curb and watch his place.

And then about a month ago, she showed up middle of the night,

started banging on his door.

Oh, was she angry?

She was wearing a teddy and heels,

so I'm thinking "angry" wasn't her prime emotion.

You're implying that she was sexually stimulated.

So, were they, um...

you know... did they...?

Did they have sexual intercourse?

Well, if they did, it was through a locked door.

So... no?

Very good, bones. Okay, let's go.

Why are you clapping?

Thank you for your help. You're welcome.

Hey, maybe you could go turn the alarm off

or just shoot it.

C-5 just under the hyoid.

Seems to be shaved on its front.

Shaved?

Yes, like with a cheese slicer.

Must mean someone slit his throat.

This doesn't look like it was caused by a knife.

There are no serrations, even microscopic.
