Trivia
When Bones talks about the advantages of the artisan products, Sweets says that he started to appreciate the manual work when he worked in a disco store and made an inventory of the vinyl records, mentioning T-Rex's "20th Century Boy", which happens to be the song that Sweets and Bones dance at the end of the chapter.

Goofs
In "Mayhem on a Cross" (#4.21) we learn that Sweets, like Seeley Booth, was abused as a child until he was adopted at six years old; he still has whip scars on his back. (visual scars shown to the audience). During "The Method in the Madness" (#8.5), Sweets is living in Booth and Bones's house, after having taken a bath, he was walking upstairs, with his back CLEARLY visible, and not a scar to be seen.

Quotes
Special Agent Seeley Booth: [to Bones and Sweets] Okay. Listen. Psychology and anthropology. I liked it better when you two were fighting!

The Apple in the Sauce

I agree with previous reviewers (although I think it deserves more than a one star rating). The whole chain of events shows relative shortsightedness on the part of the squints. The harshness of the cuts on the bones seems to be superhuman, plus the pattern should have at least led to some kind of machine early on. But that would not have allowed the whole Sweets living at Brennan and Booth's house bit. It's all a little disappointing, although there are a few good moments. The lottery set up at the office is interesting. Even in a silly thing like this, it seems that participant that can control the results should not be participating.
