1 | [[WMG:The way they handled the explosives to scuttle the ship in the episode REALLY bugs me.]] |
2 | Let me count the ways: |
3 | * 1. The explosives would have been placed against the hull, meaning the Booth would have had no access to them. |
4 | * 2. These were 'professionally placed' demolition charges, not something the criminal rigged up, meaning that they weren't booby-trapped. HE COULD HAVE JUST PULLED THE WIRES OUT OF THE BRICKS OF EXPLOSIVES! |
5 | * 2A. OR DISCONNECTED THE RECEIVER! |
6 | * 3. Using WAY too much explosive to get through the bulkhead. Technically the ghost/hallucination did that, but that just raises further questions. |
7 | * 4. The way the ship explodes at the end. What. The HELL. SCUTTLING DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY! |
8 | Also, earlier in the episode when the Gravedigger blows up the... plinth? with the suitcase of evidence on it, they don't even TRY to recover it. |
9 | I'd say that whole episode bugs me, but seeing the way the Gravedigger gets served at the end (and beaned by Bones) leaves me with a fuzzy feeling inside. |
10 | ** That's your biggest issue with the episode? Really? Not the fact that, despite the Ghost being a hallucination, multiple parts required two people to pull off? |
11 | *** Unless Booth also hallucinated ''the presence of those multiple parts'', and was actually just stumbling around at random when he thought he and Parker were cooperating? |
12 | ** The Ghost isn't a hallucination, or its a shared one, as it says hello to Brennan and she responds at the end of the episode. |
13 | *** Or Brennan really interacted with some random passerby, and Booth hallucinated that the person ''looked like'' Parker. |
14 | ** Not poking around the plinth may have been self-preservation. If the Gravedigger'd already left one bomb there, the possibility that the perp might have double-rigged the plinth, and/or could be watching the site through a sniper rifle, surely occurred to them too. |
