It’s been said a million times before. Love is hard. The words ring true throughout our existence and will continue to resonate between the empty walls of broken hearts for eternity. When it’s good, it’s good, and hopefully these sentiments are felt the majority of any relationship. But there are always pitfalls that stop the world on its axis.They can tear you down to the bone marrow, leaving you vulnerable, confused and surrounded in despair that clings to every thread of affection that lingers. It’s not pretty.
As love stories tend to follow this model of erratic ups and downs, they can become entertaining, not only for those involved, but from an outsiders perspective as well. It may sound cruel, but we all know its true. It’s for that reason that television shows portray complicated and trying love stories time and time again. It lassos the viewer, reeling them in for a closer look. We’re curious creatures, and love is our most intriguing asset. And now that the hit series “Bones” marked its return last night, fans dig for details on Brennan and Booth's dicey relationship, and that’s exactly what they’re going to get.
Monday night’s premiere proved Brennan is willing to forgive Booth for breaking off their engagement, but that doesn’t mean that it’s smooth sailing from here on out. Although Emily Deschanel admitted that her character learned to trust Booth, clouds loom on the horizon. In next week’s episode, they head to a couples retreat for an undercover mission, but the mood of the weekend may uncover some past emotions that could muddle the water.
“It’s kind of an opportunity to explore the issues that Booth and Brennan are facing, and we’re not completely in a good place at that point. So it’s a good thing to explore,” Deschanel says in an exclusive interview with Entertainment Weekly. “Even though Brennan has learned to trust Booth, there’s still a lot of healing to do. It’s kind of a good opportunity for them to face some of the things they’re going through.” Sounds like a nice weekend away...
In contrast to their relationship turmoil, new photos of Booth and Brennan wearing their respective wedding attire have surfaced. Catch your first glimpse below.
"Bones” airs Monday nights on FOX.
