Wildfire Girl

The poor cadet instructor was soooooooo upset by the dead man in this meth lab.

And Clark was back! Ha ha.

In Sweet’s office:
Booth enters: Hey, Sorry I’m late.
Brennan: According to Booth, chronic lateness is a way of asserting control.
Sweets: That’s right.
Booth, to Brennan: Do you believe that?
Brennan: No. I figured there was traffic or something kept you at work.
Booth: Exactly. Work. Work. I was putting the final touches on the case that’s about to propel me into the annals of FBI legend.
Brennan: The big Rico case I’m not supposed to know anything about?
Sweets: Why don’t I know about this case?
Booth: Bones, it’s top secret.
Sweets: But you told Dr. Brennan.
Booth: She’s my partner. Indictments any minute. Followed by a raise in pay grade, possibly a parade, definitely my face on a coin.
Sweets: Just in time for you birthday.
LMAO at Booth going to Hawaii for his birthday for a shark convention!
And Sweets was all upset that Brennan knew of the brother, even though she tried to make him feel better by saying she’d never met the brother.
Sweets: You at least knew he existed.

at Brennan meeting Booth’s little brother Jared. So matter of fact, studying him up.
Brennan to Jared: Your facial structure is even more symmetrical than Booth’s.
Jared: Is she coming on to me?
Booth: No, that’s just the way she talks.
Jared: Right.
Then Jared asks Cam about needing a beautiful woman on his arm tonight, preferably an intelligent one.
Brennan: I’m quite intelligent.
Booth: No. Not that you’re intelligent. You’re very intelligent.
Awwwwwww … Booth was so jealous!

And in the car, when Jared’s date with Cam fell through, awwwwww Booth so minded her going. And was jealous but nice and said he didn’t mind her going. And the look Brennan gave him, she KNEW he was mildly upset about it. Ooooooooo

Brennan and Jared at his event. Brennan was very beautiful.
Brennan: I was thinking how Booth would be bored at a function like this.
Jared: This kind of event, it makes Seeley nervous. All he sees are how things can go wrong. I don’t mean he’s incapable. My brother is very, very capable. …. <something then> He stays in his comfort zone. Drove our dad nuts.
Brennan: Really?
Jared: Maybe that’s what made him a good sniper. He didn’t want to be visible above the ridge line.
Jared said something like I can’t help running that ridge.
Brennan: Can you give me an example?
Jared kisses Brennan.
Jared: I’ll betcha Seeley never took that risk.
Brennan: Nope.

Then Booth on the phone with Cam, he was worried about how late Brennan was coming in. And kept going back to that. Awwwww, he’s so jealous!

Brennan: I didn’t have sex with him Cam.
Angela: Didn’t have sex with who?
Brennan: Jared Booth
Angela: Good
Brennan: Why good?
Angela said something like it would be creepy to have sex with a Booth that wasn’t the real Booth. Then Cam gave her cudos for being so daring, and Angela went on to say something like Jared is Booth lite. Booth is the real Booth.
Brennan: What if Booth is Booth lite?
LOVED that.

Then Booth got a text from Jared while interviewing the suspect. And Booth came to his rescue. And Jared was apparently drinking behind the wheel! And the trooper wanted to ell the truth, and Booth asked to speak to him for a moment. My guess : getting his little brother off the hook and giving up something important for himself to do so ….. Poor Booth.

Uh oh – the Trooper guy on the TV and Booth tearing up his Hawaii trip stuff. He gave up his cudos and his credit for Jared. Awwwwww.
Cam called him in and Booth “Cam, let this one slip by”. She knew he gave it up, but not the reason.

Then Sweets claimed to be FBI!
Agent Sweets!

Then in the FBI, Brennan and “is the stool out” and grabbed his arm!

Brennan: What happened to your Rico bust?
Booth: Nothing. Why? Have you been talking to Cam?
Brennan: No. Did you do something wrong?
Booth: What do you mean?
Brennan: You didn’t get the credit you deserve. What did you do?
Booth: Life isn’t always about credit.
Brennan: That’s not what you said. <talks about his trip, his coin, etc>
Booth: Let’s just forget about it.
She brings up Jared saying he sabotages stuff.
Booth: So basically I’m a loser?
Brennan said Jared never said he was a loose.
Booth: Do you think I’m a loser? <ranted>
Brennan explained anthroplogical hierarchy etc.
Booth: You’re not answering the question Bones, answer my question
His phone rings.
VERY INTENSE.
Mentions fingerprint findings, goes to walk off.
Brennan: Booth
Booth: Bones, let’s just go and do our work.

LOVED how Brennan knew that Booth either gave up the glory, or something happened. And LOVED how Booth ONLY needed to know if Brennan thought he was a loser or not. It wasn’t about his brother. It was about HER.
Brennan: People make stupid irrational decisions sometimes.
Booth: They act from the heart sometimes, Bones. It’s not a crime.
Awwww that was quiet so she never heard.

Cam and Sweets with an “intervention” for Brennan about Jared Booth. And she was like “are you my loved ones?”
And we find out about Booth and Jared’s life … an abusive family. And Booth covering for Jared and coming up on the short end of the stick.
Brennan: I like him very much
Cam: Well cut it out.
Cam reasons out Jared caused Booth to loose the credit for Rico case.
You could tell Cam and Sweets weren’t too high on the intervention.

Brennan meets Jared in the bar. Booth was calling, she put it on silence.
Brennan: I need to know the truth.
She asked him about Booth loosing credit on the Rico case, was it possible it was because of Jared. Then she angrily walks off.
Jared: Tempe
Brennan, on the verge of tears: You took advantage of him, You made me think he was a looser. <more I missed>
Brennan: You’re the looser.
She left, came back, shoved him off the chair.

Booth: Why didn’t you pick up? Were you in the bathroom or something?
Brennan: I was –
Nevermind.

Brennan: Booth?
Booth: Not now Bones.
Brennan: If we switched weapons, then you’d be able to shoot him between the eyes.
Booth: You’ve got a point.
Wilkenson shoots at Brennan, catches her arm. She goes down.
Booth: Bones? BONES? Can you hear me?
Brennan: I’m okay. I’m okay Booth.

wow that was a good episode.

i was happy that there were so many brendon and booth scenes. i espically loved her speach and the end when they shared a peice of cake. i also liked the part when she knocks jarod off the stool, i actually laughed out loud.

i was glad that clark was back, it was funny how they continued to gossip in front of him, but now it was more on purpose.

and angela and huggins were working together and happy about it . hopefully they will get together soon, but i doubt it.

anyhow next weeks episode looks interesting. it reminded me of that house episode, where he and cuddie do surgery from the air.

Wildfire Girl

LOVED BB at the end …
Cop holds the wife hostage, Booth has the scatter gun on him. Brennan grabs Booth’s personal weapon!

Brennan: Booth?
Booth: Not now Bones.
Bones offered to shoot him, said she was a good shot. He basically told her she wasn’t.
Brennan: If we switched weapons, then you’d be able to shoot him between the eyes.
Cop shoots at Brennan, catches her arm. She goes down.
Booth: Bones? BONES? Are you okay? BONES!
Brennan: I’m okay.
Booth checks on the cop. He’s looking VERY intense at Brennan as the husband/wife catch back up and are okay.

Booth’s birthday party.
Brennan toasts Booth: <talks about alpha male>
I know wjho he is. But I forget sometimes. Because. Because he shines it on other people.
Booth: Right after I conk them on the head with it
Brennan talks about the alpha male being the dominant one, the an wearing the crown, displaying the most colorful plumage etc.
Brennan: but I know think anthropology may have it wrong. In working with Booth I’ve come to realize that the quiet man the invisible man the man who is always there for friends and family - that’s the real alpha male and I promise that my eyes will never be caught by those shiny baubles again. Happy Birthday Booth.
THE LOOK on his face during that speech.
The gang toasts.
Booth: Thanks Bones, thank you
She grabs him by the arm and leads him away.
Booth: Aw bones what are we doing
Brennan: Come here. Just come here for a second
Pause. Brennan: What you’re doing for your brother isn’t fair
Booth: Come on Bones don’t get me mad at you after the great speech, after I got you shot –
She argues she got herself shot.
She tries to talk to him about Jared, how it’s not safe to cover for him.
He doesn’t’ want to talk about brother, she says she can have Sweets do it for him. But he tells her to go ahead.
She explains the dangers is always bailing Jared out.
Brennan: Now you’re angry
Booth: Getting a psychology lesson from you is like -
Brennan: Getting an anthroplogy lesson from you
Then Booth admitted: I traded my one shot of glory to keep my brother form getting arrested … for drunk driving
Brennan: Booth
Then : What if he does it again? What if he kills someone next time.
Booth: Right. Says the woman who got her father of murder charges.
Pause.
Booth: Face it we do things for family
Brennan: You’re right. You’re totally right.
Pause. Then, Booth: No I’m not.
Brennan: Why?
Booth: There’s no risk that you’re father will kill again.
Goes to Jared, drags him outside.
Jared thinks he’s giving him advice on his partner.
Booth has a talk with Jared. Jared goes back inside. Upset, Booth stays out, punches the bus stop, sits there sad.
Brennan comes out.
Brennan: Hey. You going to come back in for cake?
Booth: Bones I just need some time
Brennan: Do you need time and space?
He smiles: Just some time.
Brennan sets beside him on bus stop, shares her cake with Booth.
Booth: My dad drank.


SUCH INTENSITY in this eppy. And we got some Booth background.

courtneybangelcakes

An amazing episode

Wildfire Girl

All around! I LOVED seeing so much of it. The dynamics. Angela and Hodgins teasing. Clark back. Cam fitting in somewhat. Sweets pretending to be FBI! And of course learning about Jared and Booth's background. The intensity between Booth and Brennan ....

GlugGlugWooHoo

Great episode - loved the intensity. There were so many excellent scenes that I'm still digesting it all.
