OOM: Particles and Pop Tarts

[bugsandslime]

The wood particles that had been recovered from the skull of Zach's John-Doe were pressed pine, chief ingredient of cheap furniture everywhere. Not a lot of help in and of itself. But the chemical markers pointed to a particular limited family of wood treatment that the EPA had gotten banned in the early 1980s. Potentially more helpful.

Hodgins props his feet up on the table, tilting back quasi-precariously in his chair, as he reviews the report in its entirety. In the lab around him, various machines are emitting comfortingly familiar hums, beeps, and whirs. And in one instance, a loud 'clink' as a pair of strawberry pop tarts spring up out of a toaster's slots.

Hodgins had bought the Pop Tarts to replace the ones he'd stolen from Zach. But....well, he'd gotten hungry. He'll stop at the grocery store and pick up more tomorrow.

Zach strides in, holding his cup of coffee precariously in front of him as if it is a wild animal. He stops in front of the table and carefully places the mug in front of Hodgins before straightening and taking a breath.

"Can you think of any reason why someone would be tampering with the Jeffersonian's coffee supply?"

He looks grumpy, but hopeful that Hodgins can provide an explanation.
