Episode Quotes
 
Hodgins: You know, your old man, he reminded me why I got into science.
Bones: To catch murderers?
Hodgins: No. To figure stuff out in amusing ways.
 
Booth: Don't fire Max. Let him keep his job. You know, he's a teacher he's not a janitor.
Brennan: I can't overlook the sanctity of the forensic lab, Booth.
Booth: Yeah. Maybe you can overlook it for me.
Brennan: For you?
Booth: Yeah. Personal favor.
Brennan: Wha -- like a partner thing?
Booth: Partner thing.
Brennan: I know you, Booth. You're trying to do me a favor by telling me it's a favor for you.
Booth: No, uh-uh no. I can't afford that school. I can't enrich Parker, not with the science thing but you can, Max can.
 
Brennan: Caroline should charge her as an adult.
Booth: She's eleven years old Bones.
Brennan: Yeah, well she's old enough to speak Chinese.
Booth: Uh, they don't take that into account.
 
Brennan: (to Sweets) I can understand quantum mechanics but I can't understand you.
 
Booth: You don't think that I'm a lousy dad for not sending my son to private school?
Sweets: No. But you'd be a lousy father if you didn't torture yourself about it.
 
Wendell Bray: Dead guy's hyoid.
Bones: Guy as in sexually non-specific urban colloquialism, or in reference to the gender normally associated with a penis, Mr. Bray?
Wendell Bray: Uh ... penis?
 
Booth: You know something, Bones? It's tough being a father.
Bones: Parker will be fine, peer groups and random environmental factors are far more important than family.
Booth: How is that a good thing?
 
Booth: So did you persuade Cam to fire Max?
Brennan: What you think my dad should be allowed to work at the Jeffersonian?
Booth: What, you know she's just you know, trying to do you a favor.
Brennan: Well, I didn't ask for a favor.
Booth: Sometimes you don't need to ask.
 
Max: Are you sleeping with my daughter?
Booth: No.
Max: Why? Are you gay?
Booth: No.
Max: Is she not attractive enough?
Booth: Bones is beautiful.
Max: Is it because of me? Because I killed one man and we both know he deserved it?
Booth: All right, just cut it out, Max, all right? I'll talk to her. Probably ain't gonna get anywhere with her, but I'll talk to her.
Max: You're a good man, and I want that for her. Now, I gotta go blow up some soda for some kids
