|  BEST BONES AND BOOTH MOMENTS | - --- When Bones questions Booth's anger after she shared a personal story about him on her date, Booth replies, "Because what happens between us is ours." And we find out that Booth has only shared his meatloaf story with one person: Bones.
- --- Two words: The scene!!!
- --- Booth is upset because Bones tells him that Assistant Director Hacker, Booth's bosses' boss, wants to have sex with her, and she infers that she may be willing. Booth doesn't want her to date him because they would naturally talk about him. Booth is conveniently forgetting that he slept with Bones' boss, Cam, in season 2.
|
|  BONES AND BOOTH ROMANTIC DEVELOPMENTS | - --- Despite her attraction to Assistant FBI Director, Andrew Hacker, Bones brings Booth to her banquet, and after "the scene", it looks like Bones is more than willing to begin pursuing a relationship with Booth.
- --- When Angela questions Bones' reasons for dating Andrew, Bones' explains that with Andrew, unlike with Booth, there is the potential "for more". Angela then asks, "And there isn't with Booth?" Brennan doesn't really respond to the question, but rather smiles and quickly moves the conversation along.
- --- Temperance engages in some feminine claiming behavior at the end of the episode when she straightens Seeley's bow tie for him. Seeley responds with some male claiming behavior by brushing her hair off her shoulder.

EPISODE TRIVIA |
- --- The 1932 film "The Mummy" is the reason Bones became an anthropologist, despite liking Lon Chaney's mummy better than Boris Karloff's.
- --- Booth's mother used to make meatloaf with a hard-boiled egg in the center. At the Founding Father's, Booth always has them take out the egg when he orders meatloaf because it reminds him of a human eye.
- --- This is the second time in two years that a PhD scientist at the Jeffersonian has suffered from homicidal rage. The first instance was from the “Intern in the Incinerator” episode in season 3. Seems the Jeffersonian is a very stressful work environment, somebody better get Dr. Goodman back quick.

|  BURNING QUESTIONS | - Bones made another date with Andrew, does this mean we will see him in the future and that she has plans to continue dating him?
- After "the scene", where will Bones and Booth go from here?
