Spoiler Room: Death of a Brother

How will the death of his brother affect Booth on Bones? — Kayla
The loss of Booth’s brother will only affect him “a little bit,” David Boreanaz tells me. “It won’t be as dark because Booth’s relationship with his brother was one where he couldn’t help him while he was alive, and he couldn’t help him when he was dead. There are things that happen where we can’t find his ashes and there’s a problem in the second episode. He feels like he can’t help his brother, he never could help his brother. It’s sad, but it’s not the type of thing that will affect him long term.”
