Trivia
The closing ice rink sequence is a strong echo of the scene in Buffy where Angel takes Buffy skating and is seen by Bianca Lawson's character Kendra.

Goofs
It's supposed to be deep winter with frozen solid lake ice but in the street scene of the FBI building immediately after the prologue the trees are in full summer leaf.

Quotes
Special Agent Payton Perotta: Hmmm. My people were right.
Dr. Camille Saroyan, Caroline Julian: YOUR people?
Dr. Jack Hodgins, Wendell Bray: We're Booth's people.

Blades Runner

The slaying of a hockey player puts Booth on the hot seat, as he had heated words and one hell of a fistfight with the guy just hours before. Brennan of course insists that all of the rink ice be melted and sent back to her lab. Boreanz appears to do quite a bit of his own skating, by the way, and was pretty impressive. At one point, Booth is knocked unconscious and has the weirdest dream, which I am not going to spoil. Suffice it to say, the dream puts Booth on the right track to catching the killer. To some degree, one's tolerance for this episode will depend on how one feels about hockey. I grew up playing hockey, thanks to my Canadian-born dad, so I was fine with it.
