Bones Season 11 Finale: The Ultimate Intern

Finally got around to watching the last few episodes of Bones Season 11.  I'd been diverted by the two conventions, Republican and Democratic, the first of which struck me as a gathering of little better than the bad guys on Bones, the second of our team at the Jeffersonian (hey, the Democrats do have far more respect for the Constitution and Declaration of Independence which Jefferson had a hand in writing), but I digress ...

Zack Addy was always far and away my favorite intern -  as well as serial killer in training, for that matter.  Zack was more brilliant than all the subsequent interns combined. And as for serial killing, well, he was just getting started.  (Hey, Hodgins was even talking about Zack in the great meta-retrospective episode 11.18 in June, giving us a little taste of what was to come.)

Because he's back in action now as the Puppeteer, with designs for who-knows-exactly-what on Bones. I've always found marionettes a little creepy anyway, which makes use of them, including turning murder victims into them, nicely effective.

Given Zack's genius and his knowledge of not only the lab at the Jeffersonian, but what makes our principals there tick, it's no surprise (in retrospect) that he was able to set them up and play them with false evidence, which they took a little too long to deconstruct.  He'll be in a great position to give everyone a run for their money next season.

But his knowledge of our heroes at Jeffersonian comes with a price - he commensurately has no knowledge or less knowledge about what has happened at the lab since he left.  This difference is embodied in all the interns who replaced him.  None of them are as smart as Zack, but I was exaggerating when I said he was smarter than all of them put together. And working together, along lines of thought and investigation unfamiliar to Zack, may be just the way to get him.

We'll see if I'm right next year.  What I'm relatively sure of is Bones and Booth will survive.  I think Angela and Hodgins (maybe even walking again) are pretty safe, too.  But as for everyone else ... well, we'll just have to see what this charmingly ultimate intern psycho winds up doing to them.
