"Nine Wives" is the 12th episode of the 3rd season of the American television show Numb3rs. Paralleling the Warren Jeffs and David Koresh cases, the episode features Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents and mathematicians attempting to locate and arrest the leader of a polygamist cult in which members marry young girls. Julie Hébert, a series writer, incorporated slave quilts and Levy flight into her script. She also included two explosions in the script.
The episode marked Hébert's directorial debut. Although initially averse to the prospect of directing a script that she wrote, she agreed to direct it. The episode reunited her with actors Teri Polo and Joshua Malina, both with whom she had worked before.
"Nine Wives" first aired in the United States on January 5, 2007. Critics gave the episode positive reviews.
