Yes, this is the word that made me think from the beginning of the ep that it could truly be Brennan that GG is talking about. And maybe it wasn't, but I instantly interpreted that final scene as it being Brennan. The attraction and not knowing what to do with that (hence her question of Booth in Cinderella re: love) is something I can completely see her struggling with. I think Booth would be able to accept that fact and move past it to feeling something deeper. Indeed, I'm sure that he already has.
But then... I'll read some incredibly insightful comments from someone and I'm back to thinking that it's Booth.
Agreed! Because if I were to look at that final scene just by itself, I think that Brennan really shows no sign of struggling/wanting something more. Booth wants Brennan's hand to stay right there over his pocket, over his heart, and he looks so conflicted and confused in that moment. (I feel like I'm sounding so damn sappy right now, but anyway...) I feel like the title of the book is what that really made me decide--it's gotta be Brennan. But people make such compelling arguments for it being Booth.
I know that I will waffle back and forth until we're finally told who it is.

We better get told who it is. And soon!
