Seeley Booth
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Are you sure this is the best time to tell them?
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: After two days of nagging me, now you're getting cold feet?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I do not nag!
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Well, you know it's an anthropological inevitability for a woman to gossip and nag.
- Dr. Temperance Brennan: It's nothing to be ashamed of, Booth. Humans act upon a hierarchy of needs, and sex is very highly ranked. It's an anthropological inevitability.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Thank you, Bones. I really appreciate you boiling me down to your anthropological inevitabilities.
- Dr. Temperance Brennan: Sure.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Anytime.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: So now we're talking about a faked homicide to cover up a faked suicide?
- Dr. Temperance Brennan: A faked suicide meant to cover up an *actual, original* murder.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Now, just when you think things couldn't get *any* more twisted-
- Dr. Camille Saroyan: [enters] How's *this* for a curveball?
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: In walks Cam.
- Angela Montenegro: What's wrong?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: What do you mean?
- Angela Montenegro: This is usually where I type and you talk. You two are never not talking.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Well, we're not not talking.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Or maybe we're not not... not.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: You know what Bones it might be all Anthropology to you but there, certain people that you can't sleep with, I mean you can pretend that it's just, sex, you can lie to yourself and you can say it's all good, but then there's, too many strings and, too much at stake, you know, too much to lose.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Let me see that. It's bird shot. Or it was. It's compressed copper that's frangible so it breaks apart on impact.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: High mortality rate?
- Dr. Temperance Brennan: No. When O. I. is fatal, it's mainly to infants. And only in severe cases.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: So our guy has a mild case.
- Dr. Temperance Brennan: Type I. Near normal stature fragile bones and joints, off-white sclera.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Is this disease hereditary?
- Dr. Temperance Brennan: Mild cases can be. The more severe forms, types II and III are often the result of a genetic mutation. But if our guy is type I and these kids got it passed on from a parent Then all we have to do is contact these kids' families and find out which one is missing a dad.
