Quotes 

• Special Agent Seeley Booth : Instead of The Fast and the Furious, it'd be The Slow and the Serious

• FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : You were looking for me?

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Yes, it looks like someone tried to poison the cat.

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : Skinner?

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Yes.

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : [Confused]  So what's a skinny cat have to do with anything here?

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : It's actually not the cat; it's the bird the cat ate.

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : What bird did he eat?

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : I'm sorry. Are you following this?

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : Sure, we've developed a shorthand.

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : We have?

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : Apparently, so what did Skinner eat?

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I found bone fragments in his stomach.

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : You cut open Skinner?

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : What? No! No. I... I took x-rays. The bones were from a Bewick's Wren.

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : [Still confused]  All right, you sound very excited by this.

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Bewick's Wren is on Maryland's endangered list.

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : [Realizing who the murderer is]  Oh, my God! You're kidding!

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Right? It makes sense, doesn't it?

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : Yes.

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : [Having been unable to follow the discussion]  I don't know if I like this shorthand thing.

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : I think we just solved the case, Agent Booth.

• Special Agent Seeley Booth : Anyway, Bones called. She wants the techs to go back out in the field work to look for more body parts

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : Yeah, I'm already on it. Angela sent over some help. See, by triangulating all the locations where the body parts, we already recovered, she was able to significantly narrow down the search area, which she then cross-referenced with the garbage truck pick-up routes...

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : Enough, enough! Enough, with the squint talk. If I wanted to talk squint, I would go to, you know, squint land!

• Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Look at the diastemata of Victoria's incisors in relation to the dental lacerations on the victim

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : Right, was I supposed to know what you just said?

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : No, you're just supposed to nod. Eventually she's gonna tell what that means

• Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : [to Booth]  You should be pleased with yourself for picking Aubrey. He's quite competent

  FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : Was that just a compliment?

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : I tell you what, why don't you just enjoy the spotlight for now and go finish this case, huh?

• Special Agent Seeley Booth : Okay, you're sure about this?

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Yes

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : Then I'm gonna trust you on this one... I'm sorry. The correct answer was B? You're supposed to be a genius

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Officer Stop 'n Go is wrong.

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : Okay, would you like to argue with an officer? Go ahead.

  Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Well, he's wrong... I'm never wrong.

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : You are at this instance. And I'm not going to forget it either.

• Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I apologize for giving you incorrect information.

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : You know what, I tell you what, I have been looking for something to hold over your head for years. So, you know what? I have to thank you.

• Special Agent Seeley Booth : Murder Break. A lot better than traffic school. Whaddaya think?

• Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Why are you acting like your hockey team the Finers won?

  Special Agent Seeley Booth : Not the Finers, they're the Flyers.
