The Squint Squad's Phrases and Vocab!

Diatomaceous Earth: is a naturally occurring, soft, chalk-like sedimentary rock that is easily crumbled into a fine white to off-white powder. This powder has an abrasive feel, similar to pumice powder, and is very light, due to its high porosity. The typical chemical composition of diatomaceous earth is 86% silica, 5% sodium, 3% magnesium and 2% iron.

Diatomaceous earth consists of fossilized remains of diatoms, a type of hard-shelled algae. It is used as a filtration aid, as a mild abrasive, as a mechanical insecticide, as an absorbent for liquids, as cat litter, as an activator in blood clotting studies, and as a component of dynamite. As it is also heat-resistant, it can be used as a thermal insulator.

Video interview Kristin from E! online had with David Boreanaz:

http://www.eonline.com/gossip/kristin/detail/index.jsp?uuid=ba08e7b6-1c49-4e1a-980b-2c85eef5d9c7

As usual, David Boreanaz, star of Fox's Bones, is taking advantage of anyone who'll fall for his dry wit and charm (this time, me), and also talks about the shoot they did in London, the setting for the season-four premiere. (There's also, um, way too much hair and wardrobe talk in this interview. Sorry! His Euro garb mesmerized me, but I promise to get more scoop on Bones at Comic-Con next week.)

An entry at 206_bones where a user named 'Sight' talks about meeting TJ Thyne in person:

Logan's Top Episodes

Sat, 17 May 2008 18:05:59 GMT

Logan's Top Favorite Episodes

#1: The Pilot

This is the episode that started it all, and it is that reason that keeps it in the top spot on my list.

I knew the minute the Pilot aired that this was a show I was going to enjoy, and so far I've been correct. I really don't think theres much to say about this episode. I'm sure we all have a certain fondness for it, and think about certain moments from it often. I have to say one of my favorite moments is Angela flashing the guy at the airline counter. It was a great attention getting way to open the show, and certainly told us alot about our favorite artist.

This is an episode that I have and will watch many times. It never gets old, and I don't think it ever will.

Crystal's Favorite Episodes: #1

Fri, 09 May 2008 21:43:08 GMT

#1: The Mummy in the Maze

This is by far my favorite episode. While it doesn't deal too much with the actual mythos of the show, or any overall storylines, it does bring in ties from earlier episodes. In this episode, the season 3 Halloween episode, we learn that Brennan is afraid of snakes, and Booth is afraid of clowns (which ties into 'The Gator in the Girl', one of Logan's favorites. Personally, I love how Brennan points out that Christianity is a fairly young religion. We also meet 'Amber Kippler', played by actress Azura Skye (who has been in episodes of "Buffy", "Smallville" and other shows I enjoy. She reveals that Angela changed her name when she was 18 because it came to her in a dream. She also makes the discovery of exactly where Angela's husband Grayson is (No-Name Key). It's a terrific episode, where Zack dresses up as the back end of a cow (and the infamous Naomi from Paleontology is the front), Hodgins is the ill-fated Captain Smith of the Titanic, Angela is Cher, Cam is Cat Woman, Booth is first a Squint, then Clark Kent, and Bones is Wonder Woman (who is way better than Cat Woman). By the way, the accurate spelling of Grayson's nickname is: Birimbau

Quotes:

Pastor     Well, abandoning the path of righteousness is horrific, Dr. Brennan. This is our way of remaking a pagan holiday, Halloween, into a positive celebration of Christian values. (to girl) ) Excellent prostitute, Stephanie.

Amber (CONT'D)       ...force him to sign them?

                                          Hodgins

                          If necessary, do you have a gun?

                                          Angela

                          You sort of said it twice.

BOOTH            You know what? You're a horse's ass.

#2: The Man in the Cell

What can I say about this episode? It was amazing, we wrapped up one serial killer and received some major character development for almost every character. I really think this episode allowed more fans to rally behind Cam as well. Don't try to deny it. We all know that a lot of Bones fans were not fond of Cam due to her relationship with Booth. But even I saw that the two characters had chemistry and some really adorable moments. With Cam being poisoned I think it really gave some room for the fans to pull for her, and not just because this episode marked the end of their relationship. If you think about it something happened to almost every person on the team (except for Hodgins). Angela had a heart sent to her, Cam was poisoned, Zack was blown up, Booth's son was approached by Howard, and Howard basically came after Brennan. It was a very jam packed episode, and it wasn't rushed at all.

It also set the stage for one of my other favorite episodes "The Girl in the Gator".

All in all this episode is one that I can enjoy over and over again!

#2~The Man in the Morgue

This is by far a terrific episode. Temperance goes to New Orleans to help identify victims of Hurricane Katrina, and once there is drawn into a web of voodoo & hoodou rituals, murder, and the law. This is also the first episode in which we meet the current AUSA Caroline Julian. The episode is a great example of how well Brennan and Booth work together, especially considering that we see very little of the team back at the Jeffersonian.

The door opens and BOOTH rushes in heading straight for Brennan. A WOMAN #1 is behind him trying to stop him. He is too worried about Brennan to be stopped.

WOMAN #1: Sir, ,sir, you can't go in there.

BOOTH: (shrugging her off) Bones, you okay?

BRENNAN: Booth, I told you not to come.

DETECTIVE HARDING: Who's this?

BRENNAN: He's FBI. We're sort of partners.

DETECTIVE HARDING: Guy flies down from D.C.? You're more than "sort of."

Angela perks up hearing Booth's voice and turns toward the speakerphone.

ANGELA: Is that Booth?

BRENNAN (O.S.): (through phone) Yes.

ANGELA: (smiling) You're hopping the Streetcar Named Desire with Booth? (to Zack) Oh, I love this.

Angela steps forward and speaks into the speakerphone.

ANGELA:   Why haven't you come home?

BRENNAN: (O.S. through phone) Pretty soon, Ange.

ANGELA:   Is Booth there socially?

Cut To:
INT. CAR – NEW ORLEANS - DAY

BRENNAN:   No, of course, not.

ANGELA: (O.S. through phone) All right, what's going on?

Booth grabs the phone from Brennan's ear and talks to Angela.

BOOTH:   Okay, Bones has amnesia because a...

Camera on Zack's and Angela's reactions to Booth's story.

BOOTH: (O.S. through phone) ...voodoo murderer put a spell on her to keep her from solving the murder of John Doe 361.

Cut To:

Brennan tries to grab the phone back from Booth to clarify the story but he switches it to his other ear so she can't reach it.

BRENNAN: That's a huge supposition.

ANGELA: (disbelieving) That's fine if you don't want to tell me.

Zack turns off the phone.

ZACK:   Ah. Voodoo amnesia. It's a good one.

ANGELA:   Mm-hmm. It's great. Brennan's fighting zombies in New Orleans and we're stuck here.

ZACK:   Can't you send the actual remains?

Cut To:
INT. TEMPORARY MORGUE – FREEZER ROOM

BRENNAN: They don't exist.

ZACK: (O.S.) That makes no sense.

BOOTH:   Voodoo. It's probably voodoo.

________________________________________

CAROLYN JULIAN:   You sew those lips together, girl, because there is no such thing as "help" in the New Orleans Police. They just want to close the case as quickly and easily as they can. And you are making it Christmas time for them.

________________________________________

ANGELA:   Or, better still, you can forget the whole thing and come home.

BRENNAN:   Don't worry. I made bail.

ZACK:   (shocked) Bail?

ANGELA: (shocked) Bail? For what?

BRENNAN:   I told you. Don't worry. The...the murder charge won't stick.

HODGINS:   Whoa, whoa, whoa. Murder charge?

ANGELA: (rises) Brennan, the next plane. Okay? The next plane or I'm coming down there to get you myself.

BRENNAN:   Everything's fine.

BRENNAN: (O.S.) I'm healing up satisfactorily. Bye for now.

The phone shuts off.

HODGINS:   Healing up?

ANGELA: (sighs, then to Zack and Hodgins) You know what? This whole state of affairs where Brennan just runs around fighting crime? It's stupid. It's nuts. Don't you agree?

______________________________________________

And finally, the moment that we all first went 'awww' over Hodgins & Angela:

Angela sits down at the computer. Hodgins starts to leave but turns back to her.

HODGINS:   Brennan will be fine, Angela. She got bail and the murder charge won't stick.

ANGELA:   What is going on with her?

HODGINS:   Angela. (he chuckles) She started to change the day she met you.

ANGELA:   What?

He has come forward and sits on the edge of her desk.

HODGINS:   She sees how you do it. All fun and involvement and pizzazz. Big, you know? Big life. Booth came along and gave her the opportunity, but she got the idea from you. Brennan wants a big life like yours. (she smiles) That's how it looks to me anyway. But what do I know? I'm a bug guy. Bug and slime. And, you know...dirt.

ANGELA:   Yeah.

He stares at her and she looks down and up – a bit awkward and shy.

HODGINS:   So...okay.

He gets up and leaves. Angela smiles and watches him leave and then ponders a moment.

ANGELA:   Hmm.

#3: Two Bodies in the Lab

This episode is Classic Booth and Brennan. How can you not absolutely love it?

There were some amazing scenes, and dynamics that were played around with in this episode.

Hodgins and Booth had scenes together that were and still are thoroughly enjoyable.

Booth and Brennan dancing to "Hot Blooded" is one of my all time favorite BB moments.

And then of course Booth's rescue of our fair Temperence Brennan. I do believe it's one of those scenes that fans most often want to capture in fan art and fan graphics along with the two scenes of Brennan visiting Seeley in the hospital.

And my favorite scene from the episode overall is the interrogation room scene with Temperance, Booth, and Temperance's online boyfriend David. Booth is obviously jealous...no denying it. David B. even said so on the commentary.

Go back and watch it. You'll want to watch it over and over again.

Trust me.

#3~The Skull in the Desert

I love this episode first because it's Angela-centric. We finally get a chance to see her in the closest thing to settling down she could be, until Season 2. When her boyfriend disappears while she's staying with him in the desert, she calls Brennan, who decides to come out there and see if the skull found is her boyfriend's or not. During the course of the episode, we see the softer, less-tough side of Angela, which doesn't always last this long. It's a very moving episode, packed full of the great heart-to-heart moments between the two women we all love. Here's one of my favorite set of quotes from the episode.

ANGELA (Breaking.): No. He loved me all the time. I was the one who could only manage three weeks a year. I’m afraid that I—I’m just afraid that I don’t have a generous heart. I’m afraid that I won’t have the chance that I had with Kirk ever again.

BRENNAN: You will.

ANGELA: How can you be so sure?

BRENNAN: Because nothing in this universe happens just once, Angela. Nothing. Infinity goes in both directions. There is no unique event, no singular moment.

ANGELA (Shrugs and laughs.): I don’t know what that means.

BRENNAN: It means you will get another chance.
