Just going by personal experience with a friend who was diagnosed at age one. No matter how much or what she eats, she is still painfully thin. I’d always thought it was hard for them to put on weight. However, I guess YMMV. ---

[QUOTE=Waenara] I think the face that was flashed at the end looks like Zack Addy ([played by Eric Millegan](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1090644/)) [/QUOTE] I didn’t want to say that before, but it looked for all the world to me like Zach wearing Flavor Flav style gold teeth. I also think that Sweets looks a bit too much like the Napolean Dynomite guy. ---

I hope John Francis Daley joins the cast a profiler or something, I like him. It did look a bit like Zach didn’t it? That would be a turn-up for the books. I’m really enjoying this season, though I cannot understand why Emily Deschanel is forced to say things that _might_ make sense if she were an android. ---

[QUOTE=drm] Sorry, yeah, I meant we saw Gormagon’s apprentice’s apprentice (or whatever) not Dr. Sweets. I didn’t think it was Dr. Sweets either. On a different note, the original Gormagon was a creepy mofo wasn’t he? [/QUOTE] OMG, I almost slept with the lights on because of him!!! ---

I kind of suspected Zach when they emphasized youthful appearance. Doesn’t make sense why he’d offer up such things as the mirrors in the vault, but it wouldn’t be the first plot hole. I always thought it was odd that Zach went off to Iraq because it didn’t really advance the plot… ---

[QUOTE=PunditLisa] II always thought it was odd that Zach went off to Iraq because it didn’t really advance the plot… [/QUOTE] It did set up a minor subplot, though… That of Brennan’s resentment toward Booth, who encouraged Zach to head off for Iraq. ---

[QUOTE=Dinsdale] Were the teeth in the bomb from Old Gorm v1, or motorcycle son-of-Gorm? [/QUOTE] That is one very weird sentence. I like this show, and its really hitting its stride this season. The science is ridiculous–the only place this soil and this rock are found together is some obscure place in Turkey. And I just happen to know that. But the acting and the plots are good, so I’ll keep watching, despite the increased “ewwwwwwwww” factor this season. Old Gorm v1 is the stuff of nightmares. ---

I also think that the chemistry between Deschanel and Boreanaz is intriguing. I’ve decided to shut off part of my brain so that I can watch the show as a means of entertainment. Although a few weeks ago during the reunion show when they had the school’s 1980 yearbook both digitized and searchable, I had to do a few quick breaths to keep myself from throwing something at the t.v. ---

[QUOTE=Cluricaun] I also think that Sweets looks a bit too much like the Napolean Dynomite guy. [/QUOTE] He played Mitch the new guy in [Waiting…](http://imdb.com/title/tt0348333/). His character was notable because he won the penis-showing game at the end. I realized who he was last week and I couldn’t stop giggling whenever he showed up this week. I think Dr. Sweets has been ruined for me. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/bones-11-20/427205.md?page=1)
