Skin and Bones (Fear Itself)

[2] The episode was the last of the series to air before Fear Itself was put on hiatus due to the summer Olympics.

Rowdy, his brother, has been tending to the farm in his absence with Grady's wife Elena and her two sons, Derek and Tim.

When they try to feed him, he slaps a tray of soup out of one of the boy's hands, and shortly after licks Elena's arm, telling her she tastes good.

That night, Rowdy and Eddie Bear hear a strange howling noise outside and distressed neighing coming from the horse stables.

Grady mocks and taunts him that it would look bad for a ranch owner to be killed by a "bitter old Indian", and Eddie backs down and leaves.

Grady began hearing a voice that told him to let it in and instructed him that he had to eat—and he implies that he killed and ate the other hunter left with him.

Elena is obviously disturbed and frightened and tries to leave his room, but Grady attacks her, grabbing her by the throat with talons he didn't have before, drooling over her as if he might bite her.

Elena hears the shot from the barn and attempts to flee in the truck with her children, but is confronted and stopped by Grady whom is carrying Rowdy's corpse.

The episode ends with the boys and their mother facing each other over the corpse as an unnatural howl sounds out in the cold surrounding night.

Jones scenes are great acting exercises but in the end they service a script that has no sense of foreboding and no new elements to titillate viewers imaginations.
