The Blackout in the Blizzard

Hi bones booth!

One of my favorite episodes!!! I like to suspend some reality for tv land to enjoy unrealistic episodes and in bones this is one of them that I easily do that for. Being from MN I love a good Wintery episode lol. Plus I think black outs / loss of power are always fun tropey episodes with tons of character development (hart of Dixie&Friends had good ones!)

I love the importance of the seats to booth. Love them being stuck in the elevator. Love sweets trying to help them! I love the way bones dismisses sweets politely when booth is upset. I love that the show is trying to make b &b address their relationship and how they kiiiiind of talk about things instead of dancing around it completely. They are navigating new waters for sure. But it's undeniable that they want to spend time together!

Sucks we get mini PTSD thinking about the thought of a contagious person wondering around starting a pandemic.. always such a weird thing to watch in tv land thinking how that USED to seem so unrealistic...... and now look at us lol.

Of course I love all the scenes in the lab - this almost feels like a bottle episode for a little bit. Love hodgins and Wendell together. Sad and hopefully for the hodgins family and baby... love him and Angela supporting each other.

Also love Cams haircut! All the women in this episode look so beautiful!

Forgot their was a case this episode I'm sure it was great LOL.

Hi Bones Booth pod!

Boy do I love this episode! It's one I go back and watch over and over because I just love all the B&B scenes and how their relationship is addressed following the exit of she who shall not be named!

It's crazy now to watch this episode with the whole "killer deadly virus outbreak" and how pre 2020 that seemed slightly unrealistic?

Anyway, moving on.

The actual case is sad, a woman trying to help people who are being human trafficked, is killed. Unfortunately though, that's overshadowed in this episode more for the character and relationship development of B&B.

Being stuck in an elevator is not a good time for them, especially with Sweets trying to get them to talk about what Hannah's exit means for them, but in the end they both acknowledge that they need to talk about it.

The end scene is of course my favourite. Both B&B realise that whilst they both have acknowledged how they feel about each other, and may want to give things a go, timing is everything. Despite the fact we all want them to be together, I think them jumping into bed the moment Hannah left, wouldn't have been the right move. Probably an unpopular opinion.

Any way, I love the concept of the final scene and I can't wait to hear what the boys think!

Overall - 10/10!

Worst part - the PTSD from covid

Best part - that end scene.

I agree that, in the entirety of this series, this is perhaps the single worst episode... if we were rating it on the implausibility scale, it would rate a 10. As a tv show episode, it rates a 1.

This is a TV show people; and created more for entertainment value than serious science. The writers took poetic license with a lot of data and gave us a very fun, satisfying, and entertaining product for 12 seasons. Turning a blind eye to some factoids, due to B&B, this is one of my favorite episodes.

Where to start. A blizzard has hit the DC area and Booth, Brennan, and Sweets are caught in it. Some old seats from Veteran's stadium are being thrown away and Booth decides to rescue them and bring them to his apartment. In the process, there is a power outage, and two are caught in a freight elevator with the seats. At the lab a woman's body is being investigated, but they have no electricity. This is one really bad mistake considering the valuable items in the Jeffersonian and the implications of thawing. In addition to the work they do improvising, there is troubling news for Angela and Hodgins. But the highlight of the entire thing is the discussion that Booth and Brennan have about their relationship. They are so cute at the end. She is so analytical but he is willing to accept that now. Great final scene when they burn a couple of wishes they make.
