OOM: Mid-Killer in the Concrete

When her father had offered to help her find Booth, Brennan had had a pretty good idea that his methods would involve less reason and diplomacy and more intimidation and blunt force. Max Keenan does have distinct sociopathic tendancies, no matter what Booth said about the man's sense of honor.
But Brennan was scared enough for Booth that she was actually okay with that.
Ironically, Brennan was the one who had gotten truly violent, and her father had had to hold her back.
Finding the tooth was what had done it. Brennan knows in her gut that it is Booth's (not that she'd ever admit such a thing aloud). The same infected anterior molar she had harassed him into letting her examine. But they need evidence, not gut feeling. Which requires tests at the lab. Which takes time.
Waiting is maddening, but it does give her time to update a certain honorary member of the squint-squad.
