House returns home to Princeton where he continues to focus on his recovery. At the suggestion of Dr. Nolan, he steps down from his post as Head of Diagnostic Medicine because he attributes his unhappiness and subsequent addiction to the hospital. The team needs him more than ever when they are unable to diagnose a loud-mouthed video game creator who posts each new symptom on the internet and opts for treatments suggested by the online community rather than by the doctors. Meanwhile, as Foreman angles for House's old job, the pressure to solve the case creates tension in his relationship with Thirteen.

When skeletal remains are found in the Chesapeake Bay, Brennan and Booth are on the case to investigate. With only the upper torso of the victim intact, the team has little to work from besides the remnants of the victim's breast implants. Brennan and Booth are led to a small church community in Maryland where the victim was a pastor, but they have no record of her existence prior to moving to the small town five years prior. When the victim's lower half is discovered, the team realizes their initial assumptions about the victim may not be correct. As Sweets lends insight to the victim's psychological state and Brennan's latest grad student adds his own offbeat observations, the team must decipher who would have wanted her dead. From possible love interests to her family to the parishioners at the church where she was a pastor, the anatomy of the case is very misleading.
