5x12: The Best Episode of Bones that Ever Boned

If this episode were a salad dressing, it would taste like candy, and be fat-free, no, not just fat-free, you would actually lose weight from eating it, because it would be magical. Magical fucking salad dressing that makes you love salad, and eat it, it would make you want to do good things for yourself, because that’s how awesome this is.

Amen to everything in your recap. So, so lovely.

Thank you so, so much.

RE: GSA. It literally takes and act of God or Congress to order a pen that works, thus compelling me to just pick one up at the store. Skilcraft has GOT to be the most misleading name in the universe.

[obrien_blue]

Oh, no. And then I read this Wikipedia entry about Skilcraft, and proceeded to feel like a douche. Bad, O'Brien.

WAITING = BAD

...but this was soooooooo worth it.

LJ went maintenance. AWK! THEN I got called in to do an all day tour downtown today. So I had to WAIT until NOW to read this. I was on the Metro cursing the gods. Waiting to read your recap is as bad as waiting for Thursdays!! (An aside. I'm a DC tour guide. When we go by the Hoover I always ask if anyone on the bus watches BONES. Today there was a bunch -- and we all CHEERED over this episode. Right there on PA Ave. A moment. What a blast, what an epi, what a SHOW, right? :)

And what a glorious recap, Ms O. Worth waiting for. Everything you said. Just. Perfect. PERFECT.

And that scene with Hodgins and Angela? I am in total awe. The talent these actors on BONES possess is mindblowing. Just ... awesome.

Yay tour bus Bones lovers! When I was job hunting, I went to DC, and interviewed at Justice. I work for Justice now, of course, but in a field office instead of Main. Anyway, I passed Hoover going to DOJ, and was like, YAY! It's Booth's office! I was also offered a DC Justice job, but it wasn't feasible for a ton of reasons. But I swear, if I would have been able to work in the DOJ building instead of NPC (where the division was located), I would have died at losing the chance. Maybe someday.

This is all a way of saying I freaking love DC.

BEST. EPISODE. EVER. Pretty much says it all.

This episode was amazing. And Booth shooting the door was possibly the hottest thing I've ever seen!

I'm just loving the changes in Booth and Brennan's relationship this season. I'm so looking forward to each new episode!

I'm just loving the changes in Booth and Brennan's relationship this season.

The word I keep coming back to is "organic." It feels so natural. I'm loving it so, so much.

Awesome recap full of awesome for a truly epic episode. This one ranks in the top three for me. You know, when Booth did the akl;jfklsajfasklj hip thrust I thought why keep watching, it can't get better. Well

[obrien_blue]

Oooh, good catch with the map in EitB. I think that's a cool idea.

The thing I really love about Show (other than Booth's hip thrusts) is that they will take characters and allow them to develop just as we all are capable of doing. Brennan lied or at least didn't give the whole truth - about science- for Booth (the only person she would lie for, actually). That would have been impossible until this season. That for me is what takes this show way beyond a typical procedural.

You have just put succinctly what I have been trying to say in just about every post above. I freaking love this genius show.
