Episode Quotes
Temperance: Dr., you performed Amy Cullen's graft, correct?
Doctor: Yes, but I just do the procedure, Miss Brennan.
Booth: Dr. Brennan.
Doctor: MD?
Temperance: PhD.
Doctor: Well, those who can't do, do research.

Hodgins: Got it. Second decedent's name is Ronald Lupo. I found him in a cemetery in Lynchburge.
Booth: Virginia?
Hodgins: Ya, why?
Booth: 'Cause it means this fraud just crossed state lines and became a legitimate case for the FBI. Looks like I don't have to use my sick days anymore, huh?

Dep. Director Sam Cullen: Catch the son of a bitch that did this to my daughter.
Booth: That is absolutely my intention, sir.

(About the doctor talking to her parents.)
Amy Cullen: She's telling them the treatment didn't work. There's nothing else they can do. I hate seeing them so sad.

Booth: Alright, so, if it's not the widow Hastings, I'm doubling down on the mortician. Everybody in? You in?

(Dr. Brennan hops up on a casket.)
Nick Martin: She's ruining my merchandise.
Booth: Common, how much is that one.
Nick Martin: $7000
Booth: Bones, watch the scuff marks.



Episode Goofs
When Angela goes to put the virtual reality goggles on amy, at first Dr. Brennan's hands are in her pocket, but when the camera switches angles, her hands are at her side.

The drawing Amy hands Angela is ,at first sight, taking up all of the sheet. The camera changes and it's only taking up the center of the paper. The camera changes again and when we zoom in on the drawing it fills up the sheet again.



Cultural References
Hodgins: He's frozen in a cryogenics lab... and I think he's wedged between Walt Disney and Ted Williams.

Walt Disney (1901-1966) was the co-founder of The Walt Disney Company. He was a film producer, director, screenwriter, voice actor, and animator. Though that there are reports that his remains were cremated, there is a long standing urban myth that he was cryogenically frozen.

Ted Williams (1919-2002) was a famous baseball player/icon. he was induced into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1966. He was the last player to bat over .400 for a season. Upon his death, his son had his remains cryogenically frozen. It was an action that caused the entire family to fight over what they thought Ted Williams really wanted. The rest of the family stated Ted wanted to be cremated. His remains continue to be frozen.
