Ok, so here I am again with a whole floatilla (see what I did there lol) of general spoilers. Read at your own risk, does contain info on the end of season 4.

1 - Booth and Brennan's first therapist[, Gordon Wyatt played by Stephen Fry,] will come back, though he's contemplating a permanent leave of absence from psychiatry. He and Sweets will team up to help B&B solve a case, during which, we'll learn some shocking things about Sweets' past. Seems his pre-adoption life was more tragic than we were first led to believe.

2 - According to executive producer Hart Hanson, a series of attacks within the Lab will cause "dissension and suspicion" amongst all of the main players by the end of the season, adding, "It will affect the way each and every character regards the others." Source: The Ausiello Files

3 - Booth] will be going through a major health crisis," reveals executive producer Stephen Nathan, "which will cause him to hallucinate." Yikes. But whatever Booth's ultimate fate (the fact that he's the star of the show probably bodes well for him), at least viewers won't be imagining his sweet, sweet lovemaking with his partner. "The last episode[of the season Booth and Brennan are in bed together," Nathan confirms. "And we can't have them in bed naked without having sex." And the morning after? Will there be catastrophic Moonlighting-esque awkwardness? Thankfully, no. "That's all going to be resolved within that episode," Nathan promises, "because we also have to resolve the fact that Brennan wants to have a child."[...]

Also there's a strong chance you'll see [Zach] in the season finale. Source: The Ausiello Files

4 - Look for the return of Booth's brother Jared this spring. Seems the elder Booth is trying to secure a job for his baby brother, who lost his previous position when he helped save Seeley from the Gravedigger. I'm told the two siblings will get into a huge fight and some damaging words will be exchanged. Source: Zap2It's Korbi TV


And finally...could there the be the pitter-patter of tiny crime fighting squint feet...?

5 - Yes, the much-discussed sex scene between Temperance "Bones" Brennan and Seeley Booth is going to happen in the Bones season-four finale. No, it is not a hallucination. And yes, oh yes, it could lead to something even bigger for the couple. We just chatted up Bones bosses Hart Hanson and Stephen Nathan, and as S.N. jokes, "We did some research and found out that sex is very closely related to having children. We were shocked ourselves." So what does the sex mean for our fave twosome, and which beloved character is returning for the season finale? Here's what we know: You longtime fans will be delighted to know that the writer-producers of Bones are taking this step forward seriously.

As Hart says, "I think the audience will be very satisfied with the sex scene, and the way that it sets up the next season and the way things unfold between Bones and Booth." So why the change of Hart after years of putting the kibosh on B&B? He tells us, "The fact is, when we started Bones, we knew that we would never have to face the day of reckoning of when to have Booth and Brennan consummate their affair, because no show ever goes that long. And now here we are. We have to pay the piper. I think it was about six months ago that Stephen and I just quietly between the two of us started talking about how we were going to contend with that huge, hanging sword of Damocles issue of their sex life."

And for the record, the baby issue is key to the decision, at least on Brennan's side. Stephen explains, "It started with the idea of Brennan-who has been so adamant about not wanting a child for so long-finally realizing that it might be good for her to have a progeny to have someone as brilliant as she in the world when she leaves. So she is thinking about having a child, and she realizes that Booth is genetically an excellent match for her."

Another hint that this knot of storylines leads to a wee B&B Jr.? When asked about future appearances by Booth's beloved son Parker, Hart says, "Yes, we will see Parker. Of course, Booth's family life, including his son, fit into our consequences coming up in season five." As for the actual sex, they haven't shot the scene yet, but we have solemn promises that it is not the product of Booth's currently fevered imagination. Source: Kristin on E!Online

I hope not! Seriously the ending of this series is silly enough with hallucinations of tv characters. Since when has Brennan believed in anything physic?

well firstly i thought the same as you, that the halluinations thing was going to be pretty stupid and i hate dream sequences but I've seen a clip of the 'stewie' episode and its actually done quite well so i cant grumble. Secondly i have a feeling that brennan actaully has very little to do with the psychic thing, most likely she's connected to a case somehow, maybe connected to the victim. I'm going to hold fire on this, maybe if they pull off the cartoon character episode and the baby thing then this might pan out ok

Perhaps...its been quite focused on the comedy this season, which is good but I preferred the earlier ones because they had a better mix of comedy and science.
