Wendell Bray

Personality

Initially, Wendell appeared as a bit of a hot-head. However, it is revealed slowly that he is an intelligent, sweet young man who just wants to get the job done to the best degree. Others have commented that Wendell is "the brightest graduate", "the one with the most potential" and "the normal one". Wendell is also represented as the more "normal" intern since he is capable of 'getting squinty', playing hockey and indulging in relationships at the same time, showing a balance in his life that many of the other 'squints' at the Jeffersonian so conspicuously lack. This quality clearly demarcates him from Dr. Temperance Brennan, with whom, he states in Season 5, it has been his 'dream' to work. That said, Wendell can be a little arrogant as seen in The Patriot in Purgatory but that is due to the competitive nature of the situation. Both he and Arastoo are affected the most during the case due to their emotional involvement. In "The Corpse at the Convention", when he gets depressed as a friend of his in his clinical trial suddenly had his cancer return and die quickly, Wendell calls upon Booth to talk to, showing his great regard for the man as a friend to confide in. In return, Booth reveals he thinks of Wendell as his brother when trying to convince him not to give up fighting as Wendell seemed on the verge of doing so.
