Angela

Hey! How could you not tell me you were on a date when I texted you?

It was just drinks!

Angela

Celibate. Seeking crumbs. Spill.

He's Booth's boss's boss. His name is Andrew.

Angela

Wait, this is his boss's boss? Was Booth upset?

Yes. I don't know why.

Angela

Brennan, this could screw up the natural order of things, and Booth wishes that you were going out with him.

I drink with him all the time, but with Andrew there is the potential for sex.

Angela

And not with Booth?

Angela

When I was in Rio, some kid graffitied a mummy in the National Museum. Next day, choked on his own tongue.

[stunned] Seriously?

Angela

Death shall come on swift wings to he who disturbs the peace of the mummy.

I guess I'd be angry too if someone pulled my brain out through my nose and stuck it in a canopic jar.

[Inside Angela's office]

I thought Hodgins would have something on this whole "suspended animation" thing. [hands Angela a folder]

Angela

[amused] Hey, you listen to Hodgins?

I listen to Wendell.

[looks at the file Angela is reading] Woah...what is DARPA?

Angela

Uh, it's a Department of Defense agency. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. Hodgins says they're into some pretty weird stuff, like creating super-soldiers who don't need sleep and can kill with their laser beam eyes.

[...]

[Angela shows Booth her reconstruction of the victim's face]

[chuckles, looks at Angela facetiously] What's that supposed to be?

Angela

Half man, half chicken.

Come on!

I believe this to be fairly accurate.

Ok, so you want me to go ask the Defense Department if their experimental super-soldier is half man half chicken?

Angela

Booth must be cute with his grandpa, huh?

His grandfather calls him shrimp. Booth seems to like it, which I don't understand.

Angela

Well, it's because it makes him feel loved, like when he actually was a shrimp.

So the moniker is a sign of affection?

Angela

Very good, Brennan. You never had a nickname?

Oh, no, just what Booth calls me; just Bones.

[Angela walks into her office and catches Hodgins, Sweets and Fisher watching a trailer of Avatar on her big screen monitor]

Angela

What's with the blue people?

HSHodgins, Sweets & Fisher

The Na'vi.

Angela

I beg your pardon?

Denizens of a lush planet called Pandora.

Angela

[walks in front of the monitor] You boys are not allowed to watch movies on my monitor.

Angela, this is so much more than a movie.

Yeah, I mean we're sorry but the screen is so big!

You got porn on this thing?

Angela

[unimpressed] Get out. Out!

Angela

[seeing Booth on a cart being pushed by Brennan only in his boxers] Uh, are we doing an experiments on Booth? Because if so, I'd like to help.

Make fun of the naked guy. Knock yourself out.

[Sweets, Hodgins and Angela watch on as Booth single-handedly takes on the three GSA agents assigned to lock down the lab.]

GGSA Agent

[corners Booth] What've you got, feeb?

[Cam cringes as Booth kicks the agent in the groin and subdues him.]

[handcuffing the agent] Good old American classic on that one, pal.

Angela

[laughs and applauds] Oh my god!

Man, you Butch Cassidy'd them!

[cheers] That was totally ninja! Maybe some anger issues there but you kicked ass!

[Hacker enters building with SWAT]

[via megaphone] Stand down and drop your weapons! This facility is officially under the jurisdiction of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. [Booth looks at him incredulously] Aw man. Ten seconds earlier and I would've been the hero right?

Angela

Four years ago Jared's girlfriend was a hooker?

An escort. I believe in the hierarchy of prostitution, an escort ranks equal to high class call girl.

Angela

And now she teaches grade school?

Mm-hmm. I don't see any other injuries that could be cause of death. Apparently the rule is, once a sex worker always a sex worker.

Angela

You know, it really would have been better if Booth never ran her record.

He said it was my influence. That it was the rational thing to do.

Angela

No, sweetie, he's rationalizing. Which makes what he did irrational, because he's rationalizing that Jared can't make rational decisions for himself. You do the same thing all the time. Maybe that's what he learned from you.

Page 187. [places Brennan's new book on the table] Would you mind reading it aloud?

Angela

Page 187. [playfully] I am not reading the sparky bits to you! You get somebody else to do that, sicko.

Okay, fine. Read it to yourself, then. [watches as Angela reads] That's that thing that I do. Nobody does that thing. It's my thing that I do.

Angela

Right.

It's not a well known thing. It's, you know, my thing that I do.

Angela

Right. I remember. I was there.

You told Brennan about that thing that I do!

Angela

It's a very good thing.

It's my thing! That I do! Did you tell her that it was my thing?

Angela

You mean did I give you credit?

Yes! Did you?

Angela

No.

Good, because I don't need her looking at me thinking about that thing I do.

Angela

Well that's good, then.

But now that thing I do is in print and every guy that reads that book is going to give it a shot. [sighs] Oh, well. You know I've got other things that I do. [Angela laughs] My advice: only sleep with guys that can't read, because otherwise you'll never be rid of me.

The term garbage is relative. The only intrinsic value things have is what we give them. It seems odd now, but in Holland tulip bulbs were once as valuable as houses. Maybe we all overvalue things that are essentially worthless.

Angela

Well that was more than a comment on this case. What's going on, Brennan?

What separates what I do here from what this man did?

Angela

So, going to Malulu is worth more?

Maluku. Yes. The murders will never stop, but this find has real finite value. I'd be able to answer questions about our origin! Evolutionary tract! It has implications for history, science!

Angela

Listen, you're allowed to make life changes without picking a fight with your old life.

But I need a break in my life. I'm worried all the time. Worried that Booth might get hurt on a case and I couldn't prevent it. Worried about what our partnership means.

Angela

So you want to get away from Booth?

No, it's just -- I just need some perspective so that I can view my life with some objectivity.

Angela

Have you talked to him about it?

The army wants Booth to go to Afghanistan to train soldiers in the apprehension of terrorists.

Angela

Is he going to go?

Even though he said that he wasn't, it felt like he wanted to. Perhaps it's all for the best.

Angela

[scoffs] You two at opposite ends of the world? I don't think so.
