I love how hard Angela goes for Brennan. She may not be the perfect person, but she is to me.

She literally refuses to testify at Brennan’s dad’s murder trial because she refuses to help do something that will hurt Brennan and even gets put in jail for contempt of court.

She also offers Brennan a fake alibi with her when Brennan is a suspect in her friend’s murder. She is literally willing to go to jail for Brennan.

She is such a good friend and always has Brennan’s back.

2 questions about Date Night:

1. What did Spencer mean when he said he “knows the feeling” after Max said whenever she’s taken things fast, she’s been disappointed?

2. What did Spencer mean when he said he knows what “fast” means to him?

I kind of think that these lines are open to interpretation because a part of me feels like they were mostly products of the writers forgetting about continuity and past plot lines lol! They're definitely meant to have implicit sexual connotations given the rest of the episode.

Personally, I think that

Spencer meant this as a moment of empathy. I head canon him as someone on the asexual/demisexual spectrum, but also he's someone who gets attached very easily. I think this is him acknowledging that in past relationships or even crushes, he's gotten in too deep too fast and then regretted it. Like Lila, who he made out with but couldn't make a relationship work. Even with Maeve, where there was no physical sexual relationship, I think it could imply that he fell hard and the had a very fast courtship, but he was disappointed when he realized he knew so little about her still (like that she was engaged).

2. Spencer knows where his boundaries are in relationships and what would be "too soon" or "too much" for him! I think this can be true whether it's sexual or just more general. The most obvious implication is that he knows what would feel "too fast" sexually - that he might not be ready or comfortable to sleep with someone on the first date - but this could also extend to kissing, general touching, talking about heavy personal stuff (like his mom). He has an idea of those boundaries for himself, but is trying to figure out exactly what Max is referring to - does she mean just in terms of sex? Or in terms of emotional intimacy, defining the relationship, etc. etc.?

The way that Brennan’s dad questions booth by saying

“are you sleeping with my daughter? Why not? Are you gay? Is she not attractive enough for you? Is it because I’m her father?”

Like he is such a supportive dad and can’t see why anyone wouldn’t want her and also isn’t blind so he can see how obsessed with her Booth is

School Superintendent Dr. Kelly Griffith among the defendants in the Eastern Shore school case

MORE BREAKING NEWS:

EASTON — A transgender student prevented from using the boys’ restrooms and locker rooms at St. Michaels Middle-High School and his parents have settled a federal lawsuit filed against Talbot County schools. The school system told Max Brennan and his parents Laurence and Lynn Brennan on March 22 that “from this point forward, Max will have access to all facilities, including locker rooms, that are designated for boys or men,” according to the settlement agreement. Earlier that month, a federal judge had denied a motion to dismiss the case that had been filed on behalf of the defendants — the Board of Education of Talbot County, School Superintendent Kelly L. Griffith and Principal Tracy Elzey. “In March 2018, Judge George L. Russell III, in denying the defendants’ motion to dismiss the case, ruled that students who are transgender cannot be barred from sex-segregated school restrooms and locker rooms that align with their gender identity under Title IX of the Education Act of 1972 (the federal statute barring sex discrimination in education) as well as federal and state constitutional protections,” according to FreeState Justice and the ACLU, attorneys for the Brennans. “The decision was the first of its kind in Maryland, and one of the first anywhere to hold that a school district could not exclude a student who is transgender from its locker rooms.” “Judge Russell’s ruling has already made an impact in other jurisdictions,” according to FreeState Justice and the ACLU. “Last month, in Grimm v. Gloucester County School Board, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia found Judge Russell’s opinion persuasive in ruling that Gavin Grimm had similarly stated claims for relief under Title IX and the Equal Protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment against his school district for being denied access to the boys’ restroom.” “Bringing this lawsuit has been a long journey that I hope will be able to help other transgender students in the future.” Max said in a press release. “I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and I am extremely hopeful for the future.” In the press release, attorneys for the Brennans said the judge’s ruling and the settlement should alert Maryland school systems that separate and unequal treatment of transgender students is not permitted. “Though today’s case is over, Max’s bravery continues to ensure that students who are transgender are protected under the law.” Jennifer Kent, managing attorney with FreeState Justice, said. “Because of Max, Maryland school districts are now on notice that subjecting students who are transgender to separate and unequal treatment is illegal, pure and simple...”

Fun fact: Easton, the county seat of Talbot County, is/was the home of such notables as Senator Birch Bayh of Indiana, baseball star Harold Baines, and an author/activist that Pres. Trump notes has apparently interested a lot of people, Frederick Douglass.
