Season Premiere of Bones.

Bones. I finally saw the season opener. I liked the episode, however, I did not like how they 'glossed-over' the coma-dream that Booth had. I had assumed that, after watching the cliff-hanger last season, than Booth had total amnesia, not just confused about who Bones was - his wife or co-worker/partner, but who he was. The part where he said "I love you, in a .... way", was kind of a cop-out, in my opinion. How long can they drag-out this love sub-plot between the two main characters?
