Say what you want, but this is a great episode. This is one of the episodes that I will go back in re-watch when I am in the mood to watch a Bones episode.
I know that some people on here think that this episode is unrealistic, but I think they need to leave all the judgment behind and accept that this episode is more about furthering characters and storylines that it is about the realistic nature of the Jeffersonian losing power in a blizzard. I really enjoyed watching the team try and figure out interesting solutions to get around not having electricity.
One of the really important storylines from this episode was Hodgins and Angela learning that there is a 25% chance that their child will be blind. The acting by TJ Thyne when he is talking to Wendall after getting the news that he is a carrier is incredible. It always brings me to tears. I love this storyline because it gives us a glimpse into how great of parents Angela and Hodgins will be. At the end they are discussing how they will learn piano and sculpture so they can teach their kid, and it is just such a sweet moment.
We also get a lot of character growth from Bones and Booth, who are stuck in an elevator. First of all, we get some more back story from Booth, who wants to save these stadium seats because it's one of the only good memories he has with his father. We also get some important conversations happening between Bones and Booth about their relationship. I love how compatible Bones and Booth are in this episode.
Overall, this episode is great!
Best Part: all the puns Hodgins was saying during the potato scene
Worst Part: that this episode is only 42 minutes long.
