You guys, I turned down amazing Jack Daniel’s ribs from Friday’s (did I mention they’re AWESOME!) in favor of, well, equally awesome in their own way chicken fingers because they’re less messier and I wanted to eat while I watched Bones. Which, knowing how gross Bones gets, was probably a bad idea.
Oh, fuck! I’m totally so used to watching stuff on the CW like…3 days out of the week, that I was sitting there before I realized, whoa, Fox. Also, I totally thought that was the guy from the Sarah Connor Chronicles.
Shit, so THAT’S what happened at our water plant. Oil based chemical my ass.
ZACK!!!! *sobs* I missed you so so so so much.
I love how Booth is all, “Shut up, leave Bones alone, don’t be snippy, Mean FBI Agent.” And then the whole drain it vs don’t drain it debate? Very old married couple. I approve.
Oh, new cute lab assistant who looks like Blake from American Idol. I love how Hodgins knows how much guys pee. Because Hodgins would know. And Mother Angela’s like, you don’t know Zack? Honey, I must teach you the ways of the lab.
Booth totally knows when she’s breaking in someone new without even having to ask. I wonder how many times there’s been a new one that he hasn’t met, but he knows that they’re there anyway.
Oh, dead guy likes comics! I like him! Too bad he’s dead. And apparently he has some sort of OCD or something. Poor Bones, her publisher wanted to do something different. I think the hot girl on the back would make most people pick it up, but maybe not.
I don’t usually like Cam, but I think she was right to tell Hodgins off for bringing all his personal baggage into work again. If he’s not doing his job correctly, then she needs to do what she can to make it right.
Haha, Sweets likes the action figures too! Sweets rocks. Interesting that Bones wants to protect herself and help Booth, and Booth wants to help Bones and also deal with his weakness privately. I think Booth’s need to be the strong one, the protector has gotten stronger since physically, he really can’t do much, so he’s doing whatever he can verbally and interpersonally which is just heightening his usually over protectiveness to an annoying level.
Aww, Bones misses Zack. Bones would never hit on Zack. But, you know, I’d have hit on the new guy. He really is cute.
The fact that Hodgins keeps visiting Zack giving brainteasers and he loves him so much and it hurts. Um, you really can’t leave that for him Hodgins. And Zack loves his friends so much that he tells Hodgins how much he wanted him and Angela to be together and I can’t stand it.
You know, I only have extremely mild OCD, but I still couldn’t rub mud on myself. Yick. And the show is over at minute 25? I think something might not be right about this confession.
Why are they all smiling at the stupid, bigot guy? He’s…an ass.
Oh, Angela and your adorable little office and Zack is not a psycho! And you’re very cute new guy, but no. No.
Dude, this publisher guy is like my new best friend! Books are all about marketing. Hence Twilight. And Brennan’s picture on the back of her book is because she’s hot and that’s a turn on to guys. And girls.
Hodgins, ass, stop now. I know you’re hurting and I’m hurting for you, but you can’t be so horrible like that. I don’t see why he would move into Zack’s room in the first place. That would just be painful.
Clumsy and endearing works for Brennan. I like that Angela goes to Sweets to help Brennan now, but not about her own issues, because she really is looking for someone to blame other than the writers herself for the break up that’s ripping out my heart.
I kind of like that when there’s blood, it turns a pretty bright pink. I wonder if they did that on purpose to cheer up the day.
I love how Angela says that Bones is “direct and awkward” in such an adoring and loving manner. She really does care about her so much. It really says a lot about Angela that he just borrowed money from friends to go to college, and she’s all MAFIA because Angela romanticizes things and has this great imagination.
ZACK! I love how Zack is like “You don’t love me?” like a puppy and they’re all “I LOVE YOU!” and there’s hugging and kisses and love and it’s…I’m not crying. Not crying at all. And they’re all going out with each other and Angela and Hodgins are sitting next to each other and smiling happy and Zack…
Booth reads her reviews and her books and knows them all by heart and that is love. And he’s entrusting her with his back and he’s all “touching me, this is good.”
So, I was right that the multiple new interns are all just proof that Zack is what they need. He is the missing piece of the puzzle, King of the Lab. Obviously him not actually killing anyone changes things, which I'm betting it just a retcon because Hart Hanson and everyone was all "Shit, people are pissed." I kind of feel bad for anyone new though because now that Zack was here and they showed how useful he is and how they did miss him, no one else is probably even gonna get a chance.
Alright, so Bones is back with a vengeance. Two amazingly emotional episodes in a row. They just keep knocking out of the park. I’m kind of frustrated with the Fox advertising people though because all they keep doing is focusing on the lamest humor and making it about that and sex and leaving out all the really wonderful parts that make this show great. Obviously they didn’t want to give away the Zack thing, but they’re trying to make this like a romantic comedy for TV and it’s really not. I bet they go out and get drinks with the people who do the Gossip Girl ads, they both suck.
