OOM: An appropriate atmosphere of frivolity
((Sometime after this.))
After arresting Tommy Sour's neighbor for killing him (and seriously, what kind of a lame motive is that? Killing someone who makes too much noise? How freaking hard is it to just call the cops? The artistic temperament will never, ever make sense), Booth thinks a little bit of fun is in order.
After teasing Brennan about her claim to sing 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' better than Cyndi Lauper, he knows just what to do.
He calls her up, tells her he's got a loose end at the open mic night Tommy Sour used to sing at. He sets up the pianist with a $20, tells him to start playing the intro to the song as Bones walks in, and makes sure that all the squints (and even Sweets) are there to cheer her on.
With a little bit of persuasion, she's on the stage, jumping up and down and singing (amazingly well, with a strong, throaty voice that doesn't miss a single note). It's infectious, and everyone gets really into it. There's dancing in chairs (even one Seeley Booth) and clapping in time with the beat.
Booth's just congratulating himself on his awesome idea when his fun, low-key, silly night out turns into a nightmare.
