I loved this episode so much, it was fantastic. I loved Booth, Brennan, and Aubrey in the SUV together. Brennan’s glee when she told Booth that science was cool made me giggle. The lawyer was an ass but at least Aubrey’s smoothie came in handy for something. Brennan and Booth had a little too much fun spraying the lawyer down with that foamy stuff. Poor Hodgins popping a tire off an axel on a wheelchair isn’t an easy feat, binding one yeah unless he has removable tires and somebody hit the release button….. I honestly think Brennan likes making Booth uncomfortable and squirmy, I did feel for him though that’s not the conversation to have in the SUV while you’re working…. I have to say I loved that the majority of the episode as Booth and Brennan in the field. I loved how Brennan kept referring to Booth as her husband after the lady pinched his butt, she was making it clear that he was hers. Though I’m sure if ya asked Brennan she’d deny that…. I thought the nursing home manager was behind the murder at first because he was acting very nervous when B&B were in the victim’s room. Brennan knowing what Booth meant by his’ that’s where he went to heaven’ comment then translating it for the director was nice as were the hand gestures. I knew Booth ‘Bonding’ with Red would only lead to a bad outcome for Booth’s emotions… I thought for sure Sam was going to run when Brennan found the blood on his cleaning supplies. I liked Aubrey standing up to him in the integration room…. I thought for sure that when Red fell it was because he wasn’t taking his meds either and his bones were brittle. The end scene with Booth in Red’s room broke my heart. I’m not a Cam and Arastoo relationship fan, but I liked their moments in the episode. My favorite was when Arastoo told Cam he wanted to adopt children. I’m happy that Brennan didn’t slam the door on no more kids, she just quietly closed it.
