** Isn't she a photographer with an art degree? where did she learn this sci fi magic computer stuff? and don't give me that weird throwaway excuse that she has a minor in Computer Science. People with PHDs in the field wouldn't have half an idea where to start with this thing.

[[WMG: ''Series/{{Bones}}'' is provably not taking place in our world.]]
In "The Secret in the Service", the team encounters the Secret Service, who are preparing for the President's visit on a fundraising stop. This means that the President has to be just finishing his first term, meaning that a) he's not UsefulNotes/BarackObama, and b) he beat whoever was holding the office from 2009-2012. Confirmed when the President is shown to be a white guy named Randall.

* Jossed. Christine and Hank are both fine. One could still have an autism condition like Brennan in the future though.

[[WMG: Booth is ''also'' on the spectrum]]
Everyone agrees that Brennan's on the spectrum, but there's evidence that Booth is too:
*He has at least three special interests - ballroom dancing (in "The Diamond in the Rough", he noticed the flaws in two of the contestant's moves while Brennan didn't, and was vindicated by the judges), hair styling (in "The Don't in the Do", he makes a comment about a hair stylist's technique, citing the fact that he was a barber's kid), and hockey (even discounting that he plays it, his knowledge of the game, including the politics behind it, was instrumental in solving "The Head in the Abutment").
*As Dr. Saroyan puts it in "The Yanks in the UK, Part I", "Booth's not adaptable", which she said just before he has a meltdown over driving on the left - complete with getting out of the car, ''in the middle of traffic'', and shouting to the sky. To be fair, it really was more of a last straw situation, but still!
*While he is good at reading people, this is a particular skill he's cultivated to get better at his job - a skill he had to, and was able to, relearn after his tumor was removed. A conscious knowledge of other people's behavior is also a necessary component of successful masking, and there are hints he engages it outside of the interrogation room.
*Outside of meltdowns, he still feels his emotions sharply, except when they get too much, like when he learned his mother abandoned him and his brother for another family in "The Party in the Pants". When his mother confronts him about it to explain, but not excuse or apologize, he gets so angry he dissociates from the conversation and just ... stares at her, dead eyed. He later explains to Brennan what was going through his head at the time, including how scared he was that he was turning into his father.
*He clearly has CPTSD from both his childhood and his time in the service. While not a symptom of autism, it is a co-morbidity, especially in those with parents who don't understand the condition - like an alcoholic who regularly beat his children.

* For all it's worth, Micah means "Who is like God?" and is certainly not the most common name amongst security guards. It fits both as a MeaningfulName if he's something supernatural, and a name a writer like Brennan would make up if he is a figment of her imagination.

[[WMG: Booth's tumor gave him psychic powers, albeit minor ones, ''a la'' Jonas Quinn of [=SG1=]]]
It explains why he was able to escape from the Gravedigger, and how Brennan was able to see Parker in the Cemetery. Booth subconsciously projected the image and voice of Corporal Parker into Brennan's mind.
