A good Bones 10.13 on Thursday - appealing because it showed restraint in setting up a story about a serial killer, with a religious motivation and all, but capturing him at the end of the episode. Booth doesn't kill him - indeed, feels bad about wounding him, because he's an ex-con who seemed to be on the road to rehabilitation - and this leaves open the possibility that we'll see this killer again. But credit to Bones for the twist of not leaving the serial killer on the loose at the end.Meanwhile, there's a strong Aristoo story going on, too, with the news that his brother back in Iran is seriously ill, Aristoo planning on going home to see him, and the strain and trauma that puts on his relationship with Cam. As Bones sometimes does, it presents this story at just the right time in terms of our real world, off-screen. As Cam and Aristoo come to terms with his leaving, we the viewers can take some comfort in the announcement last week or so that Iran and the U.S. may be on the path to a treaty that stops Iran's development of nuclear weapons and in general thaws the relationship between our two countries.
And it was also a good episode for Aubrey, who is working great with Booth now. They complete each other's lines, play off each other's sarcastic humor, and are becoming one of the best cop partnerships on television. Good performance by John Boyd to complement David Boreanaz.
You know what I miss, though? Hodgins and Angela, both together and separately in their professions. In this episode we get some nice banter about Hodgins enjoying tying Angela up in bed, but I can't remember the last time an episode revolved around either of them at the center of a case.
No problem, though - we have plenty of episodes left this season for that to happen - maybe in a story line in which a new serial killer, or someone nefarious across episodes, is introduced.
