Episode Quotes
 
Bones: Hey! Break down the door!
Booth: It hurts my shoulder when I break down the door!
 
Sweets: Mocking will not change my opinion. I have been mocked many, many times before.
(Booth and Bones give each other a look)
Sweets: That came out wrong.
 
Pam: If he didn't love me, why would he give me this bracelet? P-A-M, do you know what that spells?
Booth: (pause) Pam.
Pam: That's right.
 
Bones: So he was killed, decapitated, and mulched. Wow, can't be worse for this guy.
 
Bones: How does a former sniper have a grass allergy? Wouldn't a sneeze give away your position?
Booth: Bones, okay, I worked in the desert. Sand, no grass.
 
(while an amateur is singing)
Brennan: This guy is good.
Booth: Thank you Paula. Just focus here.
 
Sweets: She has body issues, which are not congruent with her actual appearance. She's someone who's slightly large, who believes she's a very large woman who can convince people she's only slightly large. And the way they treat her convinces her that she's right.
Brennan: That's interesting.
Sweets: See, you're only pretending it's interesting. It means very little to you.
Brennan: That's true.
 
Booth: Everybody thinks they're the next Kelly Clarkson.
Bones: Who's Kelly Clarkson?
Booth: American Idol, "Because of You?"
Bones: Because of me?
