Bones returns with an all-new episode this Thursday. In it, we'll meet The Finder, a character for whom the episode is named, and with whom Booth goes back a long way.

Not necessarily in a good way, either.

In the sneak previews below, we learn a littla bout what brings Booth and Brennan to Florida's Everglades, and what makes renowned "Finder" Walter Sherman so special.

Is he special enough to help them crack this case? Almost definitely. Enough to warrant his own spinoff? That will depend on fan and critical reception this Thursday.

Watch him get reacquainted with Booth here:
