Booth and Brennan investigate the remains of conjoined twins found in a shallow grave in a remote desert area on the Texas-Oklahoma border. Back at the lab, the team determines the skeletal remains to be those of jugglers in a traveling circus. Brennan and Booth must infiltrate the circus community in order to find out more information about the twins' deaths. The duo goes undercover as knife-throwing act "Buck and Wanda Moosejaw". Also, when Brennan, Hodgins and author Thomas Vega are summoned by a Federal Judge along with the United States Attorney regarding the ongoing investigation of the Grave Digger, they learn that evidence from the case has recently gone missing. With Brennan and Hodgins having been victims of the Grave Digger and Thomas Vegas currently writing a book about it, they become prime suspects in the missing evidence case. However, when Brennan and the team receive a phone call from the Grave Digger informing them that Booth has been buried alive with only 24 hours worth of oxygen, the Grave Digger threatens to leave him to die unless Brennan brings the missing evidence in the "Double Trouble in the Panhandle/Hero in the Hold" episode of BONES airing Thursday, Jan. 22 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
