Episode 5 - The Perfect Pieces in the Purple Pond
The pieces of a dismembered body are found lying in a purple pool of water, but there's one catch - the head is missing. Booth and Bones learn that the body belongs to Jared Addison, a science fiction writer with severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). 
With the help of Dr. Sweets, several suspects are brought in for questioning, but the pieces are falling into place. The team has trouble finding enough evidence to determine case of death, mainly because the victim's head still missing. Hodgins is still having a hard time dealing with Zack being gone. We actually get to see Zack interact with Hodgins when he visits the psych hospital, and then later in the show, Dr. Sweets makes a visit. When Hodgins visits Zack, he leaves him the case file, hoping Zack will come up with new leads into the case.
The list of suspects for tonight's murder are an OCD therapist, the owner of a coffee bar, the victim's girlfriend (who is 28 years older then him), the girlfriend's son, and another OCD patient who confesses to the murder. However, true to form, none of these turn out to be the murder. I was actually shocked to learn the real killer; usually I can figure it out before the ending, but not this week.
Zack figures out who the murderer is. After stealing the magnetic strip from Dr. Sweets' ID for the psych hospital, Zack shows up at the Jeffersonian to share his evidence with the team.
It's during the last few minutes of the show that an interaction between Zack and Dr. Sweets sheds to light the true Gormogon killer.
OMG! I knew Zack wasn't a murderer. I've been having trouble wrapping my head around last season's finale because I just couldn't see Zack as a cold blooded killer. Just to finally know that Zack was a victim of Gormogon, and did not directly kill anyone - that answers a lot of questions I've had all summer. (Remember the summer of Dallas and who shot J. R.?) After everything he's been through, it's nice to know Zack is still Zack. Bones' Intern-O-Meter is 0 for 4.

Oh, I love Bones! Even more, I love Zack. I was so made at the end of last season when they made him a freaking killer and put him in the loony bin. I really, really hope that when all is said and done, he's back in the lab where he belongs.
None of those other interns have come close (though I did sort of like the older guy that used to be on The Practice!).
