general discussion (1x14 --)
Here is the discussion post for this week's episodes. Discussion of ALL EPISODES AIRED is allowed. Remember, the questions are only "ice breakers" in a way. Feel free to go off from them.
1x14 "The Man on the Fairway"
1x15 "Two Bodies in the Lab"
1x16 "The Woman in the Tunnel"
1x17 "The Skull in the Desert"
1x18 "The Man with the Bone"
1. Interrogating her date, becoming her personal body guard, “breaking out” of the hospital--Booth is clearly protective of his partner in "Two Bodies in the Lab". Do Booth’s overprotective actions in this episode seem to signal toward things that are more apparent in the latter seasons? I.E. - is this a pivotal turn of events for the character of Booth Seeley or even Temperance Brennan, if not both?
2. “The Skull in the Desert” ultimately leads to the explorations of Angela’s character, and is especially key with her admittance of not having the willingness to retain a commitment. Given this, was it inevitable for her relationship with Hodgins that (which lasted considerably long for Angela) to break apart, or does it seem odd that she went so far into a relationship only to let go in a snap?
3. Over the course of the seasons, we see that Booth has influenced the Squints and Brennan in terms of social interconnections (however small that influence) and in investigating cases, particularly starting with “The Man in the Bone”. But how has Booth been influenced by the Squints and Brennan since he’s begun working with them on a more daily basis?
