I don't think it's any kind of secret that Booth would like to sleep with Bones.

Are you guys suggesting that this was anything more than a dream? I just assumed he was casting the story with people from his life.

I was just commenting on the hype for the episode, which made me dread what they they said they were doing. Then it turns out the hype was a lie. I'm GRATEFUL they didn't really go there, but I find it a bit cheesy that they felt the need to hype a lie, and folks who really wanted a B/B are probably gnashing their teeth tonight.

I don't think it's anything more than a dream. But I'm not 100% sure that Booth won't assume it's based on his actual life until he gets his head on straight. So, for Booth at this point, it's all real. He believes Brennan is the woman he's married to and sleeping with.

Except that he doesn't recognize the woman who is presumably his wife in the dream.

I'm confused.

Oh, it's FOX. I've stopped paying any attention to their previews, because they're almost always misleading, if not an outright lie.

"OK, it's Bizarro land, who wants to do what?" Sweets sings rather nicely.

This is what I loved. Everyone was a metaphor for themselves. Personalities were basically the same (except for straight laced tech turned rap impresario) but exercised in a different context.

I twigged the coma thing straight away and was pre-emptively diassapointed, but in the end enjoyed the ride.

Blond tech being so badass was fun too.

If there's any overlap with the NCIS audience, there's still the big Tony/Ziva hookup to come. Maybe that will serve as a consolation prize.

No, no Tiva! No B/B! Hookups ruin shows. And Tiva would totally blow any hope of Tibbs right out of the water. Even Weatherly said it would be more interesting if Gibbs were bi-curious than to go the route of Tiva.

I'm rewatching my Season 1 NCIS disks, and I can see some of the vibe that would feed the Tibbs thing, but I don't picture Gibbs in a relationship with a co-worker. And it's hard to imagine the power outlines in a relationship with Tony because they are not status equals.

Ah, no, the famous Rule Twelve! Never date a co-worker. That doesn't stop the slash-ficcers, though. Thank heavens. Hee. And the relationship is more interesting because the power isn't equal.

Besides, S1 has Tony mentioning the last time he stayed at Gibbs' place and Gibbs saying "You remember what happened," then "the door's unlocked."
