Was he the apprentice from before they encountered him? In the story, and in the writer's heads?
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I was kind of annoyed with Criminal Minds, because I thought it was so obvious where they were going with it.
I kind of felt that it was supposed to be obvious to the audience-- they certainly gave us enough clues, but not so many as for it to be obvious to the team. And of course, I really liked the focus on Reid.

I think, ita, the idea was supposed to be that Zack became apprenticed to Gormagon after his return from Iraq-- as if he was lost and looking for some sort of guidance. At least, that's how I remember it.

Gormagon's apprentice was killed at the beginning of the season, so Gormagon tracked down Zach and recruited him. Zach was a mess after being in Iraq, and he's not the most socially ept person in the world anyway.

Thrive to spite them
I think also the Gormagon's storyline fell victim to the Writer's Strike and it could develop they way they had originally envisioned.
At least I think I read that.

Okay, I really enjoyed Bones this week. I particularly enjoyed the Hodgins/Nigel-Murray show.

Yes. This week Nigel-Murray didn't make me grind my teeth with his non-sequitorial facts like in his last appearence. And the bouncing turkey was priceless.

Clearly, Carlson should have dropped frozen turkeys on Cincinnati.

We have one of those SmartBoards at work in the training department. It is frickin awesome.
