‘Bones’ season 10, episode 2 spoilers: An updated synopsis after Sweets shocker

When “Bones” was preparing to promote the upcoming tenth season, they were doing so with a whole lot of caution. They understand the passion of the fans, and the last thing that they ultimately wanted to do was spoil what was going to be one of the most stunning events in the history of the entire show.

The show will go on without Lance Sweets, however difficult it may be. We do at least know now a little more of what you can expect from Thursday’s episode “The Lance in the Heart” overall. The original press release for this episode did not contain anything about his passing, but Fox updates it earlier this week to give you more of an idea of how the team is going to move forward:

“To find out who framed Booth for murder, the Jeffersonian team, with the help Special Agent James Aubrey (guest star John Boyd), continues to investigate who is behind a conspiracy within the Federal Government that dates all the way back to J. Edgar Hoover. Then, when foreign DNA is found in a previous victim linked to the scandal, the team is able to narrow down the number of suspects, leading them closer to cracking the case. Meanwhile, the Jeffersonian team lays their beloved friend and colleague Lance Sweets to rest after his tragic death, but not before he helps them solve the case from the grave.”

Is there anything in particular you want to see on “Bones” moving forward, and are you glad to see that the show will spend some time mourning Sweets? Share below, and click here if you missed the article all about why the character is gone in the first place.
