- Jack Hodgins: Doing all right there, Dr. B? You look like something is bothering you
- Camille Saroyan: Which is reasonable, reconsidering she's about to stick her hands in the body stew
- Temperance Brennan: Well, I feel as if imbalance of the serotonin levels have affected my neurotransmitters. Probably caused by the fact that today is Sweets' birthday. Whatever tool was used to fell the tree, caused significant damage to the skull
- Jack Hodgins: Oh, man! Sweets
- Camille Saroyan: He would have been what?
- Temperance Brennan: 30
- Jack Hodgins: He didn't even make it to 30?
- Seeley Booth: Dedicated to Temperance Brennan and Seeley Booth, the people who taught me that understanding, compassion and love are not just notions in a book. My life means more because I know you.
- Temperance Brennan: Based on the size of the pelvis and the uniformly coarsed granularity of this auricular surface, the victim was a female in her early 30s
- Camille Saroyan: Adults don't go climbing intside trees alone
- Jack Hodgins: I do. That's where the really beautiful Hymenoptera are
- Camille Saroyan: Right. But unless by some chance the victim is not an obsessive entomologist, this is probably a body dump
- Camille Saroyan: Avalon? I thought she was barred from the FBI
- Angela Montenegro: Well, yeah, but she can do her work anywhere. She's been trying to contact Justine
- Camille Saroyan: Ooh, the dead person. Is that a local or long distance call?
- Angela Montenegro: Oh, great! So you think I'm a loon now too?
- Camille Saroyan: But you're great with computer. So, what did you find?
- Angela Montenegro: Okay
- Jack Hodgins: A bug-autopsy? Yeah, and I ran a postmortem on all the insects
- Avalon Harmonia: A bug-autopsy?
- Jack Hodgins: That's right! Yeah, and one of them was murdered
- Avalon Harmonia: [to Hodgins, who just apologized to her] Professor, I didn't see that one coming and that's hard for a psychic to say!
- Angela Montenegro: It's the book that he wrote for the two of you.
- Temperance Brennan: When he was examining our partnership for the Bureau?
- Angela Montenegro: Yeah, but he left out the psychology and the efficacy of your partnership and all that other boring, technical stuff and turned it into a love story."
- Avalon Harmonia: By someone who really, really loved you a lot.
- Temperance Brennan: Parts of the Whole.
- Seeley Booth: I promised Sweets that I would treat him to some on his birthday. Yeah. Would have felt weird not to get them, you know?
- Seeley Booth: You're the one who said that this whole imaginary stuff is crazy.
- Temperance Brennan: It has its place. You praying to your God is no different than Christine giving Buddy a piece of cake.
- Seeley Booth: Okay, I don't have a tea party with God.
- Temperance Brennan: What about Communion?
- Seeley Booth: Oh, really? So, now what? The whole transubstantiation of the Host is like a tea party?
- Seeley Booth: Did you pick out a book that we're gonna read Buddy?
- Christine Booth: Not yet. He wants a love story. Love story.
- Jack Hodgins: So, I found grease residue in the fracture
- Camille Saroyan: Grease? Are we talking French fries, a burger?
- Jack Hodgins: Polyurea grease
- Camille Saroyan: Oh, sounds delicious
- Jack Hodgins: Yeah, if you like the taste of bicicle chain. That's what they use to lubricate them
- Seeley Booth: It's Sweets's birthday today, and I had down on my reminder calendar to, go get him some doughnuts at this bakery in Georgetown.
- Temperance Brennan: I still forget he is gone
- Christine Booth: Buddy isn't hungry. He just wants you to read a special book.
- Seeley Booth: What am I gonna do with all this cake that I got? It's gonna go to waste now.
- Christine Booth: Daddy? The cake isn't real
- Temperance Brennan: Yeah. The cake's not real, Daddy.
- Seeley Booth: Right, that's my bad
- Angela Montenegro: So, you really had contact with Sweets?
- Avalon Harmonia: Yeah, he's having a real tough day
- Angela Montenegro: Yeah, it... it's his birthday
- Avalon Harmonia: Yeah. I hear the first one's always tough
