History WMG / Bones

** Seeing as the show likes to throw in the occasional NotSoDifferent moment, this might actually be a point ''for''.

The name of the colonel who approaches Booth? Pelant. Why couldn't the murderous hacker have learned that Brennan and Wick were considering an archeological trip to Molucca, and Hodgins was looking into visiting Paris with Angela? He hacked the Pentagon and other databases, then manipulated a cousin into persuading Booth to re-up.

* It would be fun to think about, anyway. Although Booth would have his mind blown if he discovered his ancestor having been demon-possessed in SH continuity and the thing was later released in SH season 4.

His back-story is similar to Aristoo's -- intellectual family in a repressive country, loads of family trauma due to said repressive country, has great affection for religion (he isn't Catholic but his father was and he keeps his cross as a memento), comes to America and (tries) to hook up with his boss -- the problem is that Aristoo's story is told over several episodes while the Cuban guy tells and does all of this in his first appearance which is kind of overwhelming. Plus there's the fact that no one finds him suspicious (unlike the blonde guy who everyone thought was in debt to gangsters or the redneck guy who only became interested in criminal science because ''he wanted to kill his abusive step-dad'' (he didn't, but he scared his step-dad so much that he ditched the family without leaving a trace so everyone assumed he did)) and he's immediately accepted (hitting on Bones notwithstanding; the official government endorsement also helps ease their minds).

** I'm an alter server and I believe in ghosts.

*** He may consider himself "Catholic" in the same way that, for example, Dara O'Briain, an out-spoken atheist, still calls himself a "Catholic" atheist. Amd, as far as the Catholic doctrine is concerned, there's no such thing as an "ex"-Catholic.

* Additionally, this episode explicitly shows Bones interpreting reality differently this episode (seeing the victim as looking identical to her). Granted it's not on the same scale as visualizing a dude, but it does create precedence that she's not exactly reliable.

* 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 [[AwesomeMcCoolname Cool Name]] a writer like Brennan would make up, if he is a figment of her imagination.

[[WMG: The Gormogon's final apprentice was black-mailed into working for him]]
[[spoiler:Zack]] was kidnapped at somepoint during season 3 by the Gormogon. He offered him a choice; a) become his new apprrentice to do his bidding and spy on [[spoiler: the Jeffersonian]] or b) be killed and eaten. [[spoiler:Zack]] refused, but the Gormogon then threatened to kill Hodgins if he didn't help him, leaving [[spoiler:Zack]] without much of an option. And to make sure [[spoiler:Zack]] didn't reveal what was happening, the Gormogon kept the threat on Hodgins' life as his black-mail material. Even after [[spoiler:the Gormogon is killed, Zack]] is too scared to come forwards, still afraid someone will try and kill him, so he takes the heat.
* Expansion: Zack has good reason to be afraid. Traditionally, 'Gormogon' was not the only member of the society. We're told in the show that there's only the one pair left, but, we don't actual have any evidence this is the case. They were a whole *secret* society after all.

[[WMG: There is a long running Myth Arc going on deep in the background of Bones involving the supernatural.]]

* Namely, the barriers between the living and dead have been growing weaker over the series and the weakest point is in the Jeffersonian. By the final season this rift will be reaching a breaking point. This will mean either a) the ghosts will try and repair it with the help of the Squints or b) ZombieApocalypse .

He's insanely rich, so he has the resources to pull it off. Not to mention that he's definetly a little bit crazy, which anyone would have to be to become Batman.

* Or it could possibly be Sweets. Hodgins one referred to him as a sidekick and they've been on a "secret mission" together.

Inspired by the WMG above. The situation is either a) Squints are the Justice League in this universe, albeit, a more literal one, or b) They are alternate versions of the superheroes. Hodgins, as stated above, is Batman, Zack and Sweets are Robin (the latter replacing the former after the whole Gormogon mess), Brennan is Wonder Woman (she already has the costume), Cam is Catwoman (Again, costume) and Booth is Superman.

It's a well funded organization with quirky scientists and we know they also have a large amount of artifacts in storage (what with it being based off the Smithsonian and all). Maybe it's a storage and research facility for them?

** This is basically canon. She [[spoiler: essentially confessed her love for Booth and broke down crying after being rejected]] in "The Doctor in the Photo". That whole episode is about Brennan realising her fear of real relationships and emotional connections is a flaw rather than a strength. This is either CharacterDevelopment or CharacterDerailment depending on your perspective.

* This ''needs'' to be canon, or at least a fanfic.

Again, inspired by the WMG above. It's not too hard to imagine paranoid conspiracy theorists run in the Hodgins family. Plus, maybe his Uncle Booth rubbed off on him. Because this is WMG, lets ignore the huge time/name/everything else flaws.

* Jossed. There was no time skip

* Practical for the show, given that writing the baby in in any meaningful capacity would be tricky, and the loss would provide good emotional trauma as an excuse to keep her and booth separate for a bit longer, and continue the long-running UST without awkward break-up episodes.

For whatever reason, Sully will come back from Jamaica and want to get back together with Bones. Which will create tension now that she and Booth are together and end with Booth and Sully dukin out. Brought to you by a person who believes Sully is a relationship sue.

Think about it! Pelant is a genius computer hacker, but Zack is genius on an even higher scale. Brennen or Hodgins will eventually go to him for help on dealing with Pelant, and Zack will be able to find the clues the team needs to finally take him down.

She will have been inspired to become a forensic anthropologist by Dr. Brennan, who showed her that a woman could be smart and beautiful, and comes back almost 10 years later to than her for being such a good role model.

* Even years after the end of the show, Temperance might end up finding out about Booth's preference for larger women and decide to gain a lot of weight. After all, ''he'' might need to pass FBI physicals in order to remain a qualified field agent, but being fat won't make anyone question her ability as a forensic athropology consultant. She was certainly quick to point out all the cultural traditions based on finding fat women sexually attractive. Maybe she always wanted to get fat with a romantic or sexual partner, and was simply slim up till now because she hadn't found anybody that *also* wanted her to get fat while they were together.

[[WMG: Bones doesn’t actually share a continuity with Series/SleepyHollow.]]

The alternative explanation to how this happened is that Bones merely crossed over with an alternate version of Sleepy Hollow without the supernatural elements in which Ichabod Crane (not his real name) was in fact a con man who was pretending to be a man who’d lived 200 years earlier. He’d adopted this man’s name and identity after reading everything he could about him. Knowing people might do a handwriting comparison between the two, he taught himself how to forge the man’s handwriting and now exclusively writes in that man’s style.

* There is no book Christine. Brennan’s niece Tory was in the Virals series which seems to have been co written by Kathy’s son. Still this would be a great show.

* Jack wanted it donated, and it would be a decent cause anyway and earmarking a portion of it for Jeffrey’s future would be a good way to to ease whatever financial burden it still put on them.

[[WMG: Booth has a doppelgänger named [[Series/SealTeam Jason]] ]].

** Better yet, since the Seal Team wiki doesn’t say much about Jason’s childhood, maybe they’re long lost brothers.

* It would be fun to think about, anyway. Although Booth would have his mind blown if he discovered his ancestor having been demon possessed in SH continuity and the thing was later released in SH season 4.

** Jossed.

Seeley Booth inherited his Pop's love of BigBeautifulWomen, but he also happens to be very much into a woman's intellect and personality. The women we see him date are generally slender because the women he has dated during the show's run just all happened to catch his eye for their intelligence and charm while not having the fuller figure he usually prefers. His feelings for Bones stop him from admitting his preference for big women because she's slim and he thinks it's unlikely that she would want to gain weight. During ''The Foot In The Foreclosure'' he plays the standard devil's advocate role, because Brennan isn't. Pops declares that "There's nothing wrong with a bit of jello in your jam," because he thinks that Booth is just too embarrassed to admit that he likes big girls. He's been aware of Booth's preference for big women ever since Booth was going through puberty and started paying way more attention to his fatter classmates than the school cheerleaders.

* It would be fun to think about, anyway.

The modified ChickV virus wreaked havoc on the dead woman’s bones and joints. Arastoo was saved in time, but there’s probably still a good chance it took a harsh toll on his bones before it was cured. He’s likely headed for bad arthritis at best and some new joints at worst.

One day Booth and Bones will need rescue while abroad and Bones will be shocked by how much a Navy Seal leader looks like Booth.

* Brennan was struggling with her father’s return in the episode, and she asked Booth how he felt about his father. Booth said he loved him. This definitely doesn’t add up with what we learn about Edwin Booth later on. Booth hated him so much that he may have considered suicide just to end the abuse. I think the easiest way to reconcile it is to say he thinks of Pops, rather than Edwin,as his true father. There may also have been some reluctance to talk about his past as well...Booth doesn’t like discussing it and may not have been ready to admit it to her yet. Combine that with the idea of him seeing Hank as his true dad and it’s easier to accept.

* Not til the far future of course, but I’d hate to see one go on without the other and it would be fitting if they had a big heroic death.

At the wedding of the adult Baby Hodgins and [[spoiler:Baby Brennan-Booth]], making Bones and Angela [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming sisters in truth, as well as in their hearts.]]

* [[spoiler:Confirmed. Brennan is pregnant and Booth is the father.]]

And drags Michael-Vincent and Hank along, with them frequently exchanging [[ThisIsGonnaSuck "Why do we let her drag us into this?"]] looks. Considering that book!Christine had an entire series of her solving mysteries, written by the original creator's son, it wouldn't be implausible and it would make an AWESOME sequel series!

*** B) You say "mocked," I say "reiterated." They addressed the fact that in the season 3 finale where they discover Zach is Gormogon's apprentice, Sweets was one of the suspects. This is their way of reminding us of that so that, if this theory is correct, it doesn't come out of left field.
*** Jossed. Word Of God said that originally they had planned for Sweets to be Gormogon, but that the Writer's Strike derailed the plot, so they scrapped it, and that the Season 4 finale line was a joke. Also, after four seasons I don' t think they'll change that. :)

** The views of the church aren't necessarily the views of the individual, but that doesn't make the beliefs of either less Catholic (or whatever other religion)

The Shansu eventually came true, he became human and adopted the identity of Seeley Booth. He has a lot of experience [[VampireDetectiveSeries solving mysteries]].

Expanding on the theory above, who else would have all that free time to go to lectures AND be a night guard? Also, no one else seems to know who he is, and Brennan is already talking to one dead person in the episode. Granted, "Bones" doesn't often deal with the supernatural, but this is WMG, it's meant to be fun.

[[WMG: Maura Isles (from RizzoliAndIsles Went To School With Temperance Brennan From Series/{{Bones}}]]

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 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.

His behavior in the episode ''The Brains in the bot'', imply he's ill, possibly a terminal cancer, and he's reluctant to mention it to Brennan due to her abandonment issues.

If only for RuleOfCool / RuleOfFunny. The Squint Squad will band together to survive the dead rising in the Jeffersonian, while {{Lampshading}} the impossibility of their situation. In a flip, Sweets and Fisher will be the resident [[{{Badass}} badasses]] for this due to being GenreSavvy geeks. The episode would end with it being AllJustADream of Booth's.

We know that Booth's grampa and Gibbs' dad are the same actor. It does explain why Booth is so {{Badass}} and such a good sniper.
