International Air Dates:
UK: May 8th, 2008 on SKY1
Spain: June 27th, 2008 on FOX (edit) This episode aired on December 25th, 2007 in Denmark, over 3 months before the American airing. (edit) This episode was moved around five times. It was originally scheduled to air on November 27th 2007, then Fox aired "The Santa in the Slush" in its place and moved it to January 4th 2008. Fox then decided to hold back the return of new episodes until February 22nd, meaning the episode would air later (presumably on February 22nd). Fox next decided that the final bunch of new episodes would be held back until April 28th, moving the episode once again. Then Fox said it was going to have the final run of episodes begin on April 14th, which meant this episode would most likely be moved again. Finally, this episode settled on a permanent air date of April 28th, being switched with "The Man in the Mud" so there would be better plot flow between episodes. All of these scheduling changes were most likely due to the Writers' Strike and the lack of new episodes resulting from it. (edit)

(Andy is crying)
Brennan: Hey! Look at that! He flipped over!
Booth: Bones! That's because you've got to watch him! Geez! Okay whoa! (edit) (Andy starts to cry.)
Brennan: (loudly) No need to fuss! Obviously something is upsetting you! (edit) Bones: (when Andy is crying) How about some audio and visual stimulation? Dancing phalanges! (edit) Booth: (about the baby) Oh look at him Bones, he looks a little fussy there why don't you pick him up and give him a cuddle?
Bones: What?! Just because I have breasts doesn't mean I have magical powers over infants. You're the one with a son. (edit) Sheriff: There's not even a scratch on the boy. It's a miracle.
Bones: Well hardly. Car seats are specifically engineered to protect the child.
Booth: From what? Flying out of the back of the car and landing in a tree? (edit)

Goof: In the scene when Brennan and Booth pull up to the trailor, the car seat with baby Andy is facing forwards, but when Booth enters the trailor and Brennan is shown playing with Andy, the car seat is clearly facing the back. (edit) The baby (Andy) is revelaed in the story to be a newborn, but the actual baby himself (or even herself by the looks of it in some shots) is well over 6 months old. (edit) When Booth and Bones go to the trailer and see the door open, Booth worries that the situation might have gotten dangerous. He tells Bones to stay in the car with Andy and drive away if anything happens, and Bones promises him she will. Bones doesn't get into the driver's side of the car though, so if something did happen, she'd never be able to drive away on time. (edit) Goof: In the scene when they are searching the trailer, Brennan is wearing a black jacket and Booth is in a suit. At the end of that scene they say they're going to visit the tire recycling plant. At the plant, Brennan is wearing the same thing, but Booth for some reason is in jeans and a green jacket. In the next scene Booth is once again back in the suit he had on before. (edit) Goof: When Booth arrests Lou he doesn't identify himself as an FBI agent; he simply points the gun at Lou then handcuffs him. (edit)

Episode Title: The Baby in the Bough

This is an allusion to the well-known lullaby Rock-a-Bye Baby, which is about a baby in a cradle who also happens to be in a bough of a tree. (edit)
