  • There´s a change in Brennan and Booth

    "Superb"
    By OnePerCentClub, Dec 07, 2011 Report Abuse
    Im glad to have watched an episode about inmigrants without having them look like bad people. All the things the poor man had to do to avoid being deported and leaving his family behind.
    Theres a change in the Booth & Brennan partnership. Its taken a different path at least on Booths side. He was terribly worried when he was told Brennan was in danger that he risked his own life by threatening that gang leader. But he know what was at stake, that scene gave me the chills. The look on Booths eyes when Brennan asks him where he was is priceless... of course he wasnt going to tell her. I think it was important that Brennan almost begged Booth to stop scaring and pushing that poor woman into talk. She was beginning to change that cold attitude towards the others. LGmoreless

  • A hit is put out on Bones's life

    In this episode of Bones, the following happens. Bones and Booth are called in, when a dead body, which has been dug up, is found in the boot of a car. They then get shot at and as Booth protects Bones with his life, the suspect makes a run for it. Booth chases after the suspect and manages to catch up to him, but the suspect manages to slip away.
    They soon find out where the body was dug up from and we learn that another victim was also there, but that body is now also missing. We learn that the garden they were buried in is due to be excavated next week and that must be why the bodies have been moved. We soon learn that the female victim and the male victim were father and daughter. We learn that the female victim was called Maria and that she worked for a senator. She was also pregnant by the senator's son at the time of her death. When she was pulled off of a ladder and hit her head, thus causing her death. As the episode ends, Booth learns that a hit has been put out on Bones's life. He finds out what put the hit out and goes and threatens him. He tells him to call it off, or else Booth will kill him. Thus proving that he thinks of her more than a partner, more like a woman he has fallen in love with. We also learn that Bones has paid for the funeral of Maria and her father, and is upset with Booth when he arrives late. If only she knew that the reason he was late, was in order to protect her life.moreless

    After last week this is disapointing. Are we supposed to believe that a geek like bones is gonig to beat up a gang leader? For real? maybe once and awhile they may get a lucky or even good shot in, but this type of action is REALLY getting old, or... are we supposed to believe, as Hollywood LOVES to do this, make all the 'gang leaders' and such so weak they can't defend themselves except against eachh other. They are in constant war, and we're supposed to believe their going to get their a**'s handed to them by any geek with a TV show? Ya! Rah! Cheer! Cheer! please... Constantly being bombarded by these unrealistic actions really adds up after awhile. The rest of the show was good and well written, for this series anyway.moreless

    "Perfect"
    By vonkie_1991, Aug 14, 2008 Report Abuse
    This episode was gang member related, and that's always exciting to watch. We get to see Brennan kick some ass, which wasn't really the smartest thing to do, but it was fun to watch. People just have got to know that you can't mess with Bones.

    But like I said it was a bad idea, cause the gangster, the leader of one of the gangs, was not happy with getting his ass kicked so he wants revenge and well kill her. Luckily Booth hears this, and he kind of 'promised' the leader that if anything happens to Bones, that he will shoot him. That really show how much he cares about her.moreless

    • David can be seen using a coffee mug with a Pittsburgh Steelers logo on it. This episode was likely filmed during the playoff series prior to the Steelers / Seahawks Super Bowl XL. Edit
    • During the episode The Girl with the Graft, Brennan stresses to the killer how dangerous bone dust can be for someone's health. Yet in this episode, she is cutting up bone with Zack, both of whom have masks on, but continues to cut, with bone dust obvious whilst Booth is standing over them without a mask. Edit
    • When creating the reconstruction, Angela states that Senator Corman is 6'1". However, he is quite obviously shorter than Booth, who himself is 6'1". Also, it is stated that Logan is 5'10", but he is obviously taller than Senator Corman and around the same height as Booth. Edit

    • The intro identifies the neighborhood as Columbia Heights, which is in Northwest DC. While most of the El Salvadorian community is a few blocks away in Mt. Pleasant or Adams-Morgan, Columbia Heights does have a large immigrant community and until a few years ago, a large community garden. Edit
