Episode 5.11 - The X in the File

Summary and Discussion.

The episode's case is set in Roswell. (Which, OMG, Roswell was my favorite show way back when. If they film any of the desert parts of the episode out on the rocks where Roswell filmed, I will be in fangirl heaven, lol. Also, I will want to go see since it's less than an hour from me. Just saying.)



---

Scene 1

A man is out looking for aliens and finds some bones.


---


Scene 2

Back at the Jeffersonian, Angela is in her office with Wendell. They should be working, but are taking a quick break to see each other.


Wendell: I made reservations at the club. DJ Spider. And then back to my place?
Angela: Not sure if I can wait for tonight.
Wendell: I was fine until you just said that.
Angela: I have a key to the Egyptian storage room.
Wendell: Not on campus. Not at work.
Angela: Are you really as good as you seem?
Wendell: I can be very bad when the time is right.

They do a check for people watching and then kiss.

Wendell: We do get a generous lunch break. And there's a little hotel a few blocks from here.
Angela: Why, Mr. Bray...

They laugh and are about to kiss when Wendell sees Cam in the doorway.

Scene 3

At the scene.

Booth: Could you imagine if we found the remains of an alien. A real one?
Brennan: Like perhaps someone from Mexico or Canada.
Booth: WHy do you have to like that? You don't believe there are other life forms out there?
Brennan: I think the probability is very high. But if they had the intelligence for intergalactic travel, wouldn't they know enough not to die in the middle of the desert?
Booth: Hey, everyone's human, right? Well, not them, but -

Scene 8

Booth interviews the guy who found the body, with Sweets talking to him over the lap-link.

At one point Sweets says to Booth, "Sometimes I think you pull me into these interrogations just to show off."


---


Scene 9

Angela and Wendell are in a hotel room.

Angela: Do you have something on your mind?
Wendell: Why? I did I do something wrong?
Angela: One of the great things about you, Wendell, is you're a very "what you see if what you get" kind of guy.
Wendell: You mean, simple-minded.
Angela: You know that's not what I mean.
Wendell: This thing we have...
Angela: You're worried about Cam knowing?
Wendell: No, no... I'm worried about Hodgins not knowing.
Angela: Me and Hodgins are in the past.
Wendell: If you were really totally in the past, we wouldn't be keeping this a secret from him.
Angela: Fine. I'll tell him.
Wendell: If you don't mind, I'd like to do it. He's my friend.

Angela: A man to man, look 'im in the eye kind of thing, right?
Wendell: Something like that.
Angela: Okay, we'll do it your way.
Wendell: Thank you.

He kisses her.

Wendell: And thank you again.
Angela: Why two thank yous?
Wendell: The first for agreeing about Hodgins... the second for giving me a do over without anything on my mind.

Angela laughs. Wendell is very funny to her.

Scene 13

Snippet of Cam and Brennan working.

Cam: Not so fast, Dr. Brennan. I know you dislike flesh, but I need you to remove the organs and send them to me.

Brennan isn't happy about this.

Brennan: It's all crusty. I'll damage the bone.
Cam: Don't whine. Get a hair dryer and some cooking spray.
Booth: I'll come back for you after I talk to the ranch guy.


---


Scene 28

Angela: I'm not nuts about being kissed when it's not about me, okay?
Wendell: Sorry. Panicked. But everything's fine.
Sweets: Everything is not fine. This is a fraught situation. I'm just saying, I'm here if anyone needs help.
Hodgins: Sweets, this is one of those things where the grown-ups handle things differently from teh kids.
Angela: We're fine.

Sweets thinks they are in denial.


---

Scene 39

While catching the murderer...

Brennan: He is a moron. (to the suspect) You are definitely a moron. Not literally, but figuratively. It is very satisfying to use an insulting colloquialism even when it isn't accurate.
Booth: Imagine how great it feels when they resist arrest and you can hit them.


---


Scene 40


Angela and Wendell are having drinks.

Angela: Do you feel better?
Wendell: Being open about our relationshop? You bet.
Angela: Do you really think it isn't over between Hodgins and me?
