Happy finale season! We’re in the home stretch but before we all prepare for our post-TV season depression, let’s dig in to some scoop.
Have a question for next week? Send it to spoilerroom@ew.com or find me on Twitter@EWSandraG
‘CASTLE’: SHOULD CASTLE/BECKETT FANS BE WORRIED?
Aside from a few bumps along the way, this season of Castle has been filled with lots of joy for Castle and Beckett — the “honeymoon period,” as executive producer Andrew Marlow calls it. But will the May 13 finale bring an official end to this honeymoon?
“I think the finale’s goal is to ask some hard questions, and take a look at some reconceived notions and some assumptions that both characters may have that may or may not be accurate,” he elaborates.
Judging from the questions you fans sent in, though, I know there’s one question that’s been plaguing your minds: Should you be worried about Castle and Beckett’s relationship status. The answer? Well, it’s complicated: “I think whenever we go into a finale episode, of course, the fans should be worried about things,” Marlowe says. “But what we’re trying to do is find honest organic storytelling that’s more complicated than ‘should we be worried’ because I think ‘should we be worried’ implies a binary outcome — either X happens to Y happens and I think we’re trying to tell a lot more complicated story than that.”
I warned you. It’s complicated. Thankfully clarity is just around the corner, as are more teases from Marlow. Stay tuned.
‘BONES’: HOW BAD IS PELANT? WELL…
Think we’ve seen the worst from brilliant hacker Christopher Pelant (Andrew Leeds)? Think again.
In Monday’s season finale of Bones, the evil genius now has more tools at his disposal than ever before and will show just how much he can mess with the lives of our gang, “I think it’s emotional for everybody,” previews Emily Deschanel. “The victims — there may be multiple victims — have connections to the FBI and Booth and Booth…knows the victim well. So it’s a big deal.”
After stealing Hodgins’s fortune in a previous episode, we’ll find Pelant operatings from some very fancy new digs in Monday’s season ender and living with “no restrictions.” “He has unlimited capabilities at this point and that’s pretty terrifying when you think about a brilliant, evil person with all those resources,” she says.
But his most evil act of the episode? That one you won’t see coming. “It’s like the last few season finales where you really have to watch until the very last minute,” she teases.

Changes in the balance of power in Europe can take centuries, but when it comes to soccer, a revolution happened swiftly, in 180 minutes on the field. For the second consecutive day, a German club not only defeated but also thoroughly outplayed a Spanish one.
Goal
The Times's soccer blog has the world's game covered from all angles.
On Tuesday, Bayern Munich perhaps ended Barcelona’s reign as the world’s best team, with a 4-0 victory. On Wednesday, it was Borussia Dortmund — behind a brilliant four-goal performance by the Polish striker Robert Lewandowski — thatvanquished Real Madrid, 4-1.
The victories came in first-leg matches of the semifinals of the UEFA Champions League, the top club competition in the world. The return matches will be played next week in Spain, but unless Barcelona and Real Madrid, the two top teams in their domestic league, can conjure some magic, Dortmund and Munich are poised to play in the first all-German Continental final, in London’s Wembley Stadium on May 25.
There have been only three other single-nation finals: Real Madrid-Valencia in 2000, Milan-Juventus in 2003, and Manchester United-Chelsea in 2008.
Although the final is not yet set, the performance of the two German clubs is the culmination of a changing of the guard in Europe that began with the 2006 World Cup, which Germany hosted, and that has continued with prudent financial management of the clubs.
The teams play before diverse crowds in modern all-seater stadiums. Germany’s youth development system is second to none in the world.
Bayern Munich has won four European titles (1974, ’75, ’76 and 2001), and Dortmund one (1997). Real Madrid still has hope of winning a record 10th, and Barcelona is seeking its fifth — but those hopes are quickly fading.
