Jack Hodgins : [Emptying a garbage bin] Like looking for a prize at the bottom of a cereal box
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Apparently, you and I eat different kinds of cereal
FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : I putting my money on the mafia. The way the body was hacked up, very organized crimey
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Your speculation is a waste of my time, agent Aubrey
FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : Right, we'll cancel the mafia thing for now
Jack Hodgins : [Finds a used diaper on a pizza] So much for pineapple being my least favorite topping

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!

FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : Are you okay with this? Uh, what we're are doing?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Well, I've been on a lot of murder investigations, agent Aubrey. I'm quite used to it
FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : But with me, I mean. Because I think it's really cool
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I'm sure you do, but I'll be reserving judgment until I can judge your value as a colleague
FBI Special Agent James Aubrey : So, I guess warmth isn't you thing?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I don't really have things

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?
