Bones: The Finger in the Nest

[only_more_love]

I loved this episode.  Absolutely loved it.  I'm not ready to dissect it and examine all the reasons why just yet; I just want to bask in the glow.  Of the eps that have aired so far this season, The Finger in the Nest is my favorite, without question.  It was just great all around.

OK, so just a few minor things and that's it for now:

- DB/Booth looked damned good in this episode.
- "That's somebody's home."  If I wasn't already pregnant, the Booth/Parker scenes would have made my ovaries twitch.
- The ending scene of this ep had echoes of Brennan/Booth's visit to Christine Brennan's grave.
- Hodgins needs some love.  So glad to see that he's struggling with what happened with Zack and with Angela. 
- Booth and Brennan's interaction felt a bit more subtle and even real than it's been at times; I thought it was perfect and unforced.

Sometimes this show is pure magic.

I loved this episode. More than anything,I loved the way it showcased Brennan's character development from Season 1.

she's becoming a warm, wonderful person. I like her more each episode. Oh, Brennan. :-)

You know, B's always liked animals. She's always been good with animals. Season 1, she brought a bloodhound on the case to sniff out a body under concrete, and was very good to the dog. In Season 2, she talked about wanting a pet pig - and booth gave her a surrogate. in Season 2, also, she knew just what to do to get a dog away from a crime scene. In Season 3, she indicated her vegan leanings, and here we are in Season 4, and she's interested in a dog - and not just any dog: a dog that reminds her of Booth, but who's been exploited and manipulated, like Zach.

Maybe they should cast another character: a dog for Brennan. :-)
