"the end in the beginning" title meaning?

With the new season finale coming up and the title playing off last season's finale, I've been trying to figure out HH's "crystal clear" meaning season 4's "the end in the beginning." Does anyone have any good ideas to what last season's finale title was supposed to mean? I just cant think of anything good myself...

Good topic but this should be in the spoiler thread

I'm wanting to discuss the meaning of an old episode title, not a future one.

but there is mention of the new episode in the post. I personally am a spoiler freak but there are those out there that avoid even previews, so anything remotely relating to an upcoming episode is supposed to be in the spoiler thread. I see that your new so I just figured I'd let you know

and I see that you edited it, so disregard

The end in the beginning?? The end of the beginning of their relationship, their partnership!! In fact, I don't Know!! Maybe after we'll watch season finale (the beginning in the end) we will have more clear season 4 finale!!

That can be true, or it's something else they have in mind? (;

Maybe the END of the whole show/series (with B/B together etc) was in the BEGINNING of the season 4 finale? (Since it started out with B/B together in bed in that alternate reality sequence?)

Probably a hundred ways to interpret it though... [Only admins are allowed to see this image]

okay i have a few.

The end in the beginning...

-the literal "end" of the story in the beginning of the episode. Then if the final is called the beginning in the end, it could end with that scene, and give us reassurance that they will eventually get together.

-something "ended"in the "beginning" of that ep or series. So it could be the "end" of them denying their feelings or having a platonic relationship (which if you think about it, it was. after that book everything changed and we got movement away from the platonic relationship or rut they were in) This ties in with the final, because if the final is the end int he beginning, then something else can "begin" in the end of the episode, and this new beginning, branched from that "ending" in the s4 final.

-it could simply be a catchy name so HH can add some hard core foreshadowing, and some strange story lines.

- It could extend to their first case, so maybe it isn't about what began and ended in that particular episode, more about how it all began, and what will end, and in those endings what can begin. So think about it in the begging, a relationship started, then in pilot a new type of relationship began, season 4 final a new layer began, then maybe something else can be added in the s6 final.

- maybe the ends and beginnings are to do with the alarm clocks. So maybe the part of the S4 final was a glimpse at the future. So the future "ended" in the beginning, with the change of alarm clocks at the "beggining" signifying the "end" of future and that start of AU/coma/dream/book. SO then the beginning in the end, the future or real life can begin in the end.

So that is all for now..... But i am sure when i have more time i will post some more ideas


So when analysing i think maybe we should think, what ended in the beggining?? And what can begin in the end??

AT the END of "The Beginning in the End," the Finale, the final scene, for whatevver reason will be Brennan and Booth in bed having essentially the same scene as at the Beginning of The End in the Beginning. Essentially, as payback to us all that he promised it would be real last year...and this year...It is real..... Where it will lead...? Stay tuned!
Hart is "wicked literal"

"nothings happens without first a dream"

I totally agree with mommahurley. I always thought the title "The Beginning in the End" literally meant the "beginning" of B&B's romantic relationship at the "end" of their partnership or the episode. HH has always been literal with the titles like "The Boy in a Tree," means a boy in a tree and "The Rocker in the Rinse Cycle," means a rocker in a washer machine. And also, when he tweeted that the title was "TBintE," he sent a twit pic of the script of the opening scene of S4 finale. I still have a feeling that we might get some B&B love making that is REAL in the finale (and they can still have sex and not be a couple).
