‘Bones’ season 8, episode 22 preview: Booth loses his pants!

The sad news for “Bones” fans? Not only are there only a handful of episodes left in season 8, but you’re not going to have an opportunity to watch one of them on Monday night. The only real good news here is that when the show does pick back up, we will be very close to the big finale, and the remaining episodes will play out in succession.

While the show is asking you for a little bit of patience when it comes to this upcoming installment entitled “The Party in the Pants,” we have a feeling that it is going to be well worth it. Why? Basically, you’re going to see what happens when Booth is on a collision course with “Magic Mike.” The world of male stripping becomes the focus of the story when a certain person with this profession passes away, and based on the promo below, Booth is going to be suspected as an “FBI agent” that is ready to pull off some arresting moves on the ladies. (We also learn something rather surprising about Brennan in the process.)

The official synopsis for the episode from Fox goes as follows:

“The Jeffersonian team investigates the murder of Jack Spindler, a successful employee at a brokerage firm by day, but a stripper by night. When his remains are found at a demolition site, it leads the team to investigate why someone with such a successful career would take on a second job. However, when the team learns how Spindler’s job affected his personal life, they start to question the people closest to him, including his stripper friend, Storm (guest star Brandon Barash). Meanwhile, Booth’s mother (guest star Joanna Cassidy) shows up after a twenty-four year absence in his life and makes a special request of him.”

Sadly, there is no footage of Booth’s mother in the promo, but based on the setting, that is probably a good thing.
