Jack Hodgins quotes from Bones

I don't think we need bones to let us know that the victim was a male.

Brennan

We have no other way, Dr. Saroyan. [points to her bucket of evidence and fishes out some remains with tongs]

Hodgins

I think we do.

Angela

[disgusted] That mangled piece of meat is his...

Yeah.

Wendell

Breaking my arm seems like nothing now.

Angela

So I was online looking at dream houses, which got me thinking about adding an extra room...

Hodgins

...and you want a studio––

Angela

Which could double as a bug room

Hodgins

Oh...phft. Listen, I promise I will do it. As soon as I find a suitable bank to rob.

Angela

You know, we'd make a pretty good team. You could drive the getaway car.

Fisher

I was watching the news and wondering if it even worth getting dressed.

Hodgins

[smirks] Oh we've missed you, Fisher.

Hodgins

These guys haven't evolved in 360 million years.

Sounds like they could run for Congress.

Hodgins

Look at them. They're doing what they do best, relaxing and watching life go by.

Hodgins

You really met Fidel?

Rodolfo Fuentes

Yes! I asked him if Socialism is so wonderful, why is Cuba's newest car a 1955 Buick?

What was that?

Hodgins

[grins] It's still growing. It's feeding off the remaining tissue.

I've seen this movie. It doesn't end well for humanity.

Angela

They're dead when they're frozen, aren't they?

Hodgins

Yes, but they keep oxygen circulating while putting in the cryoprotectants to save the cellular integrity of the remains.

And they use propofol to keep the remains from animating during the process.

Angela

[shocked] Animating? You mean like, the "walking dead"?

Hodgins

[grins excitedly] Yeah, it's actually––

Angela

[cuts Hodgins off] If you say "cool", you won't have sex for, like, a year.

Hodgins

Revolting.

Hodgins

The truth is, the family was always strange, you know? They were living under a cloud.

A very wealthy cloud.

Hodgins

Yeah, tons of money and all that's left is murder, sadness and secrets. I'm telling you, I'm doing a hell of a lot better broke.

So how do you even know this is a murder? The deceased could've been sitting on the edge, fallen in after drinking too much

Sweets

Well, there're drag marks that go all the way from the trail, all the way over to the well here. If you look at the grate, it shows signs of stress as if someone stomped it in. It was a body dump, Dr. Saroyan.

Ok. I'm impressed.

Hodgins

Wow, did he just "Brennan" you?

I believe he did.

Brennan

What does it mean to "Brennan" someone? Is that a compliment? Dr. Sweets seems to be very thorough.

Sweets

[smirks] Thank you.

Everyone here is so smart. I don't understand why there's not more appreciation for scientific imagination.

Hodgins

Science fiction? Try the H. G. Wells exhibit on the fourth floor.

Jessica

Every new discovery started with a dream, dude.

Hodgins

[about the exploded corpse] I mean, I gotta say, that is not a good way to loose weight.

Booth

All right, ok, save it for "squint night" at The Improv, ok, Bug Boy?

Fisher

Just can't believe that this much ugliness exists in the world.

Hodgins

[sarcastically] You're just realizing that now?

Fisher

No I always expect the worst but my new therapist, she showed me how wonderful life could be. [looks at corpse] Which makes this even more horrible.

Aubrey

We have to look at you just like we would any other person of interest.

Hodgins

This is unbelievable. This is the third time I've been a murder suspect! It makes me wanna kill someone so you won't waste your time.

Hodgins

[realizes what he said] It's a joke. I was joking.

Wendell Bray

[points to a pile of evidence] ...and two trays of stuff yet to be identified.

Hodgins

Particulates. Don't say stuff. It's sacrilege.

Booth

Listen, I know what it's like to be innocent and have a whole bunch of circumstantial evidence stacked against you.

Hodgins

Thank you, Booth.

Aubrey

[to Hodgins] I really do think you're a good guy.

Hodgins

Yeah, great. [leaves]

Aubrey

[calls after Hodgins] So please don't be the killer!
