Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAccording to Noah Hawley, the writer of the episode, the main idea of the episode was that the characters would get to save a person's life by using their skills, whereas in most of the series' episodes they find a dead body, then investigate the death. Hawley also wanted to raise Booth's stakes in this case, then give him the chance to take some real action and save a boy's life not just based on his expertise as an investigator and a sniper, but also as a father. In addition, the security review conducted on the characters in the episode was used to explore each person's quirks and create possible scenarios that played against who the audience thinks they are.
- GoofsBrennan says that her television interview was her first. She had been interviewed for television (with Penny Marshall) in the previous episode, "The Woman at the Airport".
- Quotes
Agent Pickering: Didn't I see you on television this morning, Dr. Brennan?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: How could I possibly know what you watched on television?
Featured review
Not the best episode, but far from the worst
This episode is more about character development than about the specific story, I think. Fortunately this show does character development very well.
The investigator who was brought in acts as a foil for the unique traits of each character to play off, and they each do it brilliantly.
Despite my first paragraph, there's also no shortage of action and plot, with the usual twists and turns to be found in any episode of the show.
I'm very confused by the previous commenter who said that the main team were being interviewed by a shrink - a State Department investigator is hardly just a shrink, and I think that goes to show how valuable the previous comment is. If you post a comment in here, please be familiar with what you're talking about.
