You nailed the sequel Sam! I thought it was fantastic! I just loved how you had her so anxious about something happening to the new baby. I think that's exactly what she'd do and how most Mother's would feel. My favorite part was when she has the nightmare and the baby is dying and she's yelling Booth like she thinks he can do something to stop the baby from dying.

So heart breaking. And then the scene right after when she tells him something is wrong and goes to the Doctor! PERFECTION! My other favorite part was when she was riding in the back of the car with their new baby, almost as if to to reassure herself he was fine or she could protect him if they crashed again. The ending was so sweet too with the dinner and their little guy crawling under the table...

I'm so glad you decided to make a sequel so they could get their happy ending.

Thanks, Nikki!

I'm so happy you liked the idea I came up with. I felt like what happened with Joy would have confirmed all of Brennan's worst fears about parenthood so she would be extremely reluctant to have another child, but at the same time she needed to to heal. I'm glad you mentioned the dream: I almost cut Booth's name out of the audio because I was worried it would sound like she was calling the baby Booth!

I was originally going to have Addision as the doctor again but then I remembered the Lucy scene and I realised it would be perfect! And that was why I chose the clip of her riding in the back with the baby: I thought it was important to show them taking the new baby in the car. Btw, I don't know if you noticed but that was Lucas at the end.
