Bones suffers from an inundation of romantic relationships. There are only three options with them: together (Angela and Hodgins, Booth and Hannah), apart permanently (Booth and Cam), or the weird, dysfunctional UST of Booth and Brennan. Currently, the show is simply juggling too much relationships. In addition to the aforementioned ones, there is also Sweets and Daisy who get significant screen time in "The Twisted Bones in the Melted Truck." Frankly, I could less about them--as long as they don't interfere with the plot.
Sadly, however, the time spent on Daisy being weird while Sweets helps her, Parker liking Hannah, takes away from the the main story, which should be the focus of the episode. Instead, we barely get any investigation or science and just a load of predictable gooeyness.
Score: 8.0/10
