Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Well, why did you call Mommy a jackass?
Christine Booth : Because you said I could. I told my teacher that, too.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Did you call your teacher a jackass?
Christine Booth : Yes. You said I could.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Not your teacher...
Christine Booth : Why not?
Seeley Booth : Yeah, why not, Mom?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : You're not helping, Booth.
Seeley Booth : Come on, come on, now, Mommy's gonna talk to us.Okay, we are gonna sit here and we are gonna listen to Mom explain to us and we are gonna listen to Mom explain to us why not.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Really?

Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : The parabolic dental arch indicates the victim was Caucasian, while the lag of sub pubic concavity suggest male. Age will be a bit more difficult
Dr. Oliver Wells : I got age. Slightly coarse granularity of the auricular surfaces puts him mid to late 20s. Piece of cake
Dr. Camille Saroyan : This is not a competition, Oliver
Dr. Oliver Wells : You are delightfully naïve
-
Dr. Oliver Wells : I finished reconstructing the victim's skull and, of course, found exactly what we were looking for
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Comminuted fracturing. The damages to the frontal bone would have resulted in severe cerebral contusions
Dr. Oliver Wells : Meaning I found cause of death. Not too bad, huh?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : You were merely following instructions given to you
Dr. Oliver Wells : So that's how you want to play it? Okay. Not a problem, because this well runs deep! Very, very deep
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Dr. Wells, I often find you to be a real pain in my ass
Dr. Oliver Wells : Wow! If I wasn't so shocked, I might be offended
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : The occasional curse word can serve as a healthy form of non-violent retribution
Dr. Oliver Wells : So, you swore to stop yourself from hitting me?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Given your personality, I'd imagine you're quite used to that
-
Dr. Oliver Wells : Which means, I still have a change to bring this case home. Oh, you are swearing in your head right now, aren't you?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I believe the phrase is "like a naval seaman"
Dr. Oliver Wells : I believe it's "like a sailor"
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : That's what I said
-
Seeley Booth : Bones, Christine said the word a-s-s and where I come from, that's a swear word.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : J-a-c-k-a-s-s... Jackass isn't profanity. It's another name for a donkey.
Seeley Booth : No, it's a gateway swear word, which leads to other, four-letter swear words.

Dr. Oliver Wells : Dr. Brennan, when you first started, how many hours were you pulling?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Before I had a family, I was in the lab anywhere from 10 to 15 hours a day, including weekends. Why do you ask?
Dr. Oliver Wells : Because one day I plan on surpassing you as the world's foremost forensic anthropologist
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I applaud your ambition, Dr. Wells, but being the best in your field requires more than the accumulation of hours
Dr. Oliver Wells : Well, I'm also a genius with a 160 IQ, so I think I'm okay
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Perhaps, but I'd temper yourself. The likelihood of you being as good as I am is very remote
Dr. Oliver Wells : Oh no, not "as good as", "better than"
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I believe the expression is: "bring it on over", Dr. Wells
Dr. Oliver Wells : No, the expression is: "bring it on". There is no "over". But, okay

Christine Booth : Good night, jackass.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I beg your pardon?
Christine Booth : I said good night, jackass.
Seeley Booth : Don't look at me. You told me not to say anything.
