On the Bones episode “The Senator in the Street Sweeper,” two strange sanitation workers in Washington, DC discover the shredded body of a senator while on the job. Brennan (Emily Deschanel) and Booth (David Boreanaz) go to Capitol Hill to investigate. They intend to get answers but it’s not easy getting the truth out of politicans, especially US Senator and majority whip Hayley Winters.
