Bones Preview: 7 Things to Know About ‘The Murder of the Meninist’ (Plus Photos!)
As Hodgins continues to adjust to life in a wheelchair, Brennan faces a whole other kind of battle on Bones Season 11 Episode 12, “The Murder of the Meninist.”
Spoilers ahead!
Episode description: The team investigates a body found in a car crash, and the remains belong to a founder of a men’s rights organization who may have been the victim of domestic abuse. As Brennan learns more about the tenets of the victim’s organization, which claims middle-aged white men are oppressed and feminists are man-haters, Brennan uncharacteristically loses her cool during an interrogation and assaults the organization’s co-founder. Meanwhile, Angela (Michaela Conlin) and the team struggle to deal with Hodgins’ post-wheelchair bitterness and Booth is convinced Brennan is a jinx for the Philadelphia Flyers.
Here are a few other hints as to what you can expect from this episode:
- Brennan feels the need to defend herself in front of a large crowd.
- Aubrey has an awkward encounter when questioning a possible witness.
- We have the chance to see the world from the perspective of Hodgins, and T.J. Thyne offers a remarkable performance.
- Although Hodgins has become incredibly bitter, Angela tries her best to remain positive.
- Booth learns something new about Brennan that he finds surprising.
- Aubrey brings Booth a thoughtful gift.
- This quote: “May the force remain in your proximity.”
