Bones - The Money Maker on the Merry-go-Round

Christine just said 'jackass' hahaha which in her little-child voice sounded hilarious... Also, that child is not four. Come on. Apparently it's not her fault, since her bunny is a jackass. I see no flaw in her logic.

Young, blond, doctor (Wells) is back, and makes the mistake of telling Brennan that he wants to eventually be better than her - thinks this is possible because he has a genius IQ of 160.

Dr. Spencer Reid and his 187 ask "Is that all?!" Reid also wins in the 'extremely handsome' department.

Cam and Angela try to reconstruct the victim's face by literally PINNING the skin onto the skull. Pardon me while I gag. Is it just me, or is Aubrey beginning to enunciate exactly like Booth? Methinks they've been spending too much time together... They're interviewing the victim's wife and she admits that her husband took care of everything - and she doesn't know how to change a lightbulb, so Aubrey says 'OK, I can show you how to do that later'. What a gentleman! Then when she leaves, she offers to tip them, because she doesn't know who she's supposed to tip. Wow she really is clueless...
AND I JUST REALIZED SHE'S PLAYED BY THE ACTRESS WHO WAS WENDY THE WAITRESS ON HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER. Which means she should know ALL about tipping.

Just Wendy. She doesn't have a last name.

Apparently Booth knows that Aubrey hates 'the 1%' and he knows 'what happened to' Aubrey to make this happen. I hate to sound like Chandler Bing, but could you BE any more vague, Booth?!! Hoping they actually reveal what the thing is, at some point..

Do people who played football in college seriously still wear their team rings when they're grown adults?? (This isn't unrelated - one of the people they interviewed was wearing theirs, and being from Canada, I find the college sports obsession weird).

Patented gases have names that sound like super villains, and Cam accidentally mistook Hodgins for Dr. Wells - cause of the curly hair, and the beard.Which I don't buy, because Wells is a good 5 inches taller than Hodgins.

Aww poor Aubrey.. apparently his dad went bankrupt doing some shady stuff in the stock market, and abandoned him when he was a child. Poor kid. They really are the 'island of broken toys'.. According to Twitter, 'Basically Aubrey's dad is Bernie Madoff'.

Brennan assumes that 'due to his personality', Dr. Wells is probably used to people swearing at him in place of hitting him. BAHAHA she also called him a considerable  pain in her ass. (Maybe she's where Christine gets the swearing?)

Booth and Aubrey go to interview a suspect and find him having a giant party in the middle of the afternoon. I highly doubt that strippers high-five dudes for doing cocaine off their stomachs.

Something tells me... The writer of this episode has seen this movie.

Crap, I was making food and missed the beginning of the next section...  Aubrey and Booth were interviewing the druggy-party guy. And then Angela figured out the murder weapon and Wells can't do anything impressive. There was a hooker (she claims to be a 'sheets salesman') who was there with him and even admits to hitting him with the murder weapon, but not in the head.

The case is starting to sound like a game of Clue. And Hodgins doesn't believe in Wells triumphing over Brennan. He thinks Wells looks like himself 'in the mirror with a hangover'.

^^ Does that mean young Hodgins looked somewhat like this??! (Brian Klugman was on Frasier back in the day)

Aubrey upsets the victim's wife by saying he must have not loved her enough because he was sleeping around and doing drugs, and that had decided the money was more important. (I think Sweets would call that 'transference') and he doesn't want to do any more stuff in the field with Booth, says he's been 'hogging' him lately. Aww. Although I do kind of miss Brennan going out in the field, she and Booth had such an interesting dynamic. Especially during interviews.

Also, Brennan found trace in a wound and handed Wells his ass on a platter. YOU GOT SERVED, DUDE. Nobody challenges Dr. B.

OH SNAP that guy with the football ring was the one who killed him. The football ring was what gave it away! (Attention all sports people - leave those things at home!)

Brennan finds Aubrey at the Founding Fathers (because there's only one FBI bar in all of Washington) and talks to him about his father and how to let go of the past. Which is really sweet of her. And then she convinces him to buy her a beer, cos that's how she rolls.

Booth had to feed Christine cake for dinner - he's just kidding. It was pie. And now Christine is calling everyone 'jackass', including her mother, and her teacher. And Booth goes along with it.

Alright, I'm not on my A-game tonight because I have two midterms and a lab tomorrow (I have my priorities in order, don't I??) but I managed to squeeze in four TV and one movie references, so that's not too shabby. BBT post will likely not be up until the weekend, and I'll have to wait to watch the new Elementary until then, too *sobs*

TWO! That's two movie references!!
