The Bones folder isn’t showing up through the link 😩 12 Monkeys is though, so I’ll watch that first 😬

I see your point. The plausibly of how the evidence is obtained is really what's up for debate I think. If there was a clear reflection in a mirror, then it'd be no question for anyone to query them obtaining a prosecution. Because it's a composite of partial and warped sources, it feels more implausible. Like so many times, it's about the shows quick presentation through this overly convenient super computer that Angela has built. Like in most of these moments, the software does all the work and swiftly presents a pretty graphic for us. This weakens the credibility. Rather than just relying on the hard data. Angela's character has been functionalised as either the hippy free spirit, straight talking best friend, or mega mind programmer that can make her Angelatron do anything miraculously flashy that the plot requires. We all go sure, of course it can, and then chalk it up to that limiting procedural 40min time slot. Angela, like Temperance, has her world view, and she can be as hardline as a lot of them, when expressing it. In some ways, it can come off as smug as Brennan's self assurance at times. While Bone's personality is explained, Anglea's isn't. Perhaps with her entitled sense of authority over Temperance, in regards to 'living in the real world' demeanour, that she has going on. Angela is about as contrary and unformulaic of a character as they could cook up for a show like this. Like the evidence collected, improbable but not necessarily impossible. As whimsy and free-spirited a 60's hippy. A portal lense for Temperance to peer through at those she doesn't fully understand, and be provided with sage surety, buttoned with a slightly patronising 'sweetie' at times. And the software and tech genius gifting the team with resolutions to problems like some kind of projected big floating head. These are typically some very unlikely personality and developed skill level traits to form up a person.
