After trying to twist my own theory around to make sense, I have happened upon one that makes TOTAL sense in every way.

This makes the most sense out of everything I've read/thought/discussed.

I know, right? This would be perfect. I mean, like she said, we all know they're getting together at some point, knowing that 'one day' they do the deed just cranks up the UST, and it totally fits with the title.
*happy dance*

Okay - thinking on this more, I've decided I'm easily confuzed.
~So the sex would be Future!(Real)!Sex?
~So when we come back in S5, they will have not really had sex?
BUT
they will have had epiphanies? No more delusion, and yet still fighting it?

Exactly!? What I'm wondering is, what would be the cliffhanger that will end the episode? If it's something that alters their relationship one would think it would have to be related to something big like real rightnow!sex. Because how would showing us futurereal!sex alter anything at all?

Maybe this is just me wanting them to finally get it on for real. Because, it's not like the both of them would have the exact same vision of themselves in the future. Though I do like this idea of showing them in the future a lot, and it really really works with what we've seen--btw, whose bed are they sleeping in?

I always thought the cliffhanger would be something like them getting temporarily split up, as ED said in an interview that the way season five starts out would not work with a going-abroad episode.

Wow...I think I just wrote a lot. Hope it's coherent!

I have a hard time fitting this Future!(Real)!Sex as NOT being a dream or hallucination though. I mean, how can you show something "real" when it hasn't happened yet?! Yes, it's TV, and maybe I see these characters as more "real" than they really are, but... do they have a time machine I don't know about?!

what would be the cliffhanger that will end the episode?
I could see the epiphany(ies) - I'm not sure they would BOTH have epiphanies of the same type at the same time and neither do something about it *shrugs* - as "something that alters their relationship" and leaving it somewhat cliffhanger-y...

btw, whose bed are they sleeping in?
It must be their Future!(Real)!Sex bed! lol

Oh and them getting split up would be, um... horrible. Me no likey.

Exactly! And even though we know the series will end happily, why would the writers even want to jump the gun like this? Especially when Future!(Real)!Sex makes no sense--as, like you said, there is no freaking time machine.

It must be their Future!(Real)!Sex bed! lol
LMAO

Oh and them getting split up would be, um... horrible. Me no likey.

Maybe I'm just an angst whore for kind of thinking this could be kind of interesting to see.

Seeing the clip from the S4 finale ACTUALLY HAPPEN (or be a flashback/flashforward/flashpresent?? kinda thing) in the SERIES finale.
I'm such a sucker for continuity anyway, that would be my ultimate CON-utopia. :)

I think I get what you're saying.

What if Booth is "heading towards the light" and is given a chance to see the future he's giving up if he "dies"?

Re: cliffhanger - if Booth has a big life-changing experience, maybe he walks away from the partnership/FBI. That would fit with her comment about not going abroad.

From: [identity profile] iam-space.livejournal.com
Oh holy crap, doc. What then? Brennan becomes his sugar-mama?!
I dunno, I don't see them giving up the partnership unless there's just NO other way. Don't you think they would at least TRY to "acknowledge that there are some emotional considerations" with Sweets and see if the partnership could be salvaged in light of the realizations? I'd definitely hope so.

And the "heading towards the light" was definitely the impression they left us with at the end of Critic. I don't put any doubt in the possibility of them following up on that in the finale. BUT, I wouldn't consider that to be real!sex. Not that I'm absolutely adamant that it BE real!sex and would stop watching the show or anything... but that would be Booth's anesthetic induced dream. Unless his SuperBooth!powers have made him prophetic now, as well. *sigh* We could call in Mulder and Scully on that one. :)

I'm just saying that a gazillion shows have used this plot device - the 'Bones' writers aren't above it.

What if he has what appears to be some permanent health problem? Or it appears he chooses to continue to "head towards the light"? Definite cliffhangers.

Have I just gone down the worst-case scenario road or what?

From: [identity profile] iam-space.livejournal.com
yeah I really would hate it if the cliffhanger has ANYTHING WHATSOEVER to do with Booth's life hanging in-the-balance. That's just too dirty (HH, you hear me???). I'm okay with it being a relationship issue... one of them "acknowledges the attraction" - maybe even out loud. *gasp* Something like that, I can handle. Even Real!Sex ONCE, and dealing with the inevitably awkward fall-out of that, I can handle.
The non-potential of Booth dying would be a stupid cliffhanger of epic proportions. DB is not leaving the show.
I know - he could be a zombie. I hear they make for good entertainment. ;)

I just had a crazy thought:

What if they have sex like two normal people because they're sexually attracted to each other? And since they work together and are good friends, it's awkward and weird and that's the fallout.

That sure would be a twist :)

For someone that comes across as totally emotinally stunted most of the time, she seems to cry over him alot.

I think we can all agree that Brennan's characterization has been all over the place this season (hmmm... maybe she's "struggling" with something?!? *little cheer for Team Brennan*)... I mean it seems that just when we start to see some real emotional connection from her, they revert her back to "lacking empathy" and I know I'm not alone in being really tired of that pattern.

Date: 2009-05-08 04:37 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] doc-3.livejournal.com
You're definitely not alone.

Even my DH made a comment while watching that she's an emotional nightmare - one minute she's a robot and the next she's crying in the hospital waiting room.

He said that if she wasn't so hot, Booth should have kicked her to the curb years ago, lol.

Men. *eyeroll*

lmao! I had lots of "peanut gallery" comments last night as well. He's just lucky I'd already watched the ep twice and the good parts about 15 times. lol!

Yes, there was a running commentary. usually it's about ED's boobs.

Lucky for him, I knew I would be home today to watch again uninterrupted. Of course, I only watched the end :)

oh we have the boob discussions too. last night it was when she was wearing the pink button-up shirt that was all gapping open. we both prob enjoyed that part a bit too much. ;)

From: [identity profile] doc-3.livejournal.com
Yes, the boob discussions run rampant here (She does have some gravity-defying cleavage).

Of course, my commentary ran along the lines of, "Is she stupid - do it with him, don't send him to the sperm bank!"

I read again, and if the sex scene is Future!Sex! then that would be the theoretical "end" of the series - the "end" in 'End in the Beginning'. Like we all want to see - hot nekkid Booth/Brennan sex. Fade to black.

How we know it's real iz confuzing. Does he something like, "hey remember six years ago when I had that brain tumor", or what?

We know Booth believes in heaven, so what if he's 'going towards the light' and sees a glimpse of the future he could have if he stays here on earth?

Technically, if he sees the future, that's Real!Sex! but no one but Booth knows about it. Cue the epiphany.

I'd be very pleasantly surprised if this is actually what happens. I love Bones, but I admit I don't have the level of faith in its writers that it would require to believe that this is what is going to happen next ep.

From: [identity profile] doc-3.livejournal.com
I have faith that they have good intentions. Not that they actually pull this one off.

I think they like to be (try to be) very clever. And they always toot their horn about how they push the envelope with their science. Maybe this is one of those envelope-pushing moments.

I absolutely agree with you about their good intentions. It's not like they'd want their show to NOT do well. :)

Maybe this is one of those envelope-pushing moments.

Only a few more days till we find out. If nothing else, the spec has sure been fun!

I really like this theory and it would make me happy to see it! Every future episode would take us closer to this happy ending and that would be wonderful to see!!

It's the only theory that really jives well with all of the spoilers we've gotten so far. But for some reason I'm still just unsure that this is what will actually happen.

Hm. When I read this before my last meeting I was all OMG OMG OMG \o/ THEORY FTW! But... during my meeting (unbeknownst to the other meeting participants) I was thinking about the theory and now I'm kind of... not sure.

First, while my initial thought is that it would make for delicious UST, because WE know where it's all heading... On the other hand... it kind of takes some of the fun out of it... 'cause now we've seen the end destination... do we need to stay to watch the journey??? I'm not saying that I would feel that way... but I bet that some people would feel that it takes the fun out of Will They/Won't They.

My other thing is that we were told that the sex would be something that they couldn't walk away from, would have serious ramifications for them... how does Future!(Real)!Sex (TM Space) do that? I mean... how will us knowing that they eventually do the deed affect THEM right now.

Finally... Emily interviewed that there would be a kind of big cliffhangery ending that had to do with their relationship. How cliffhangery can it be if we know that they will eventually be together regardless of what kind of shenanigans go on in the meantime?

And then my meeting ending and I raced back here to talk about this... because, as usual, I'm failing to keep my mind on work and off of Bones speculation. MAN... my productivity at work is going to go THROUGH THE ROOF starting May 18th. LOL.

After reading everyone's comments, I think that there are some holes in this theory although it does seem to jive with almost every spoiler.

Biggest 'hmmm' for me: how do we know this is Future!(Real)!Sex and not some wonky drug-induced hallucination?

Does Booth know this is some sort of glimpse into the future and that's how the UST gets cranked up? Because he knows the inevitable now? But she's still clueless?

(notice the overuse of question marks - I'm clearly befuddled)

You know, I think this could actually work, and since I'm quite nervous as to how the writers are actually going to do it I think I'd love it if they did this. Although, I'm not sure exactly how they'd put it into the episode and let us know it was real!future!sex...

Thanks for posting about this theory though, some nice brain food (plus, speculation is always welcome *g*)! :)
