[to NSA Agent Gill] And I'm afraid I don't work for you, I don't answer to you and until I see a court order saying I have to share information with you, I'm gonna have to ask you to leave the building.

I'm not saying what Greystream Solutions does is right.
But you're saying you dislike what Vivian did as much as they do.
Okay, and you're okay with what she did?
I take the long view, the historical view. George Washington, in his day, was considered a traitor.
Oh, okay, well, now you're just trying to piss me off.
Washington was a British subject who led an army against his own country.
It's not the same thing.
How do we know? Sitting here today, how do we know if history will look at Vivian Prince as a patriot agitating for change or a traitor to her country?
You know what, I'm sorry, Bones, but it doesn't take me 200 years for me to know that she was wrong. I'll catch her killer, but Vivian Prince was wrong.

There's very little that I can disclose that isn't above your clearance level. I'm here purely as a courtesy.
Did you kill Vivian Prince?
Bones, not exactly where I was gonna start.
Well, if he's being difficult, we might as well cut to the chase.
BBlackthorn
I like her style.
I'll bring in Gill.
Uh, no, you can't.
But we have to. He is very likely the last person to see Vivian alive.
If you bring Gill in, whoever killed Vivian is gonna know who "The American" is. You might as well pull the trigger yourself.
Well, maybe he should've thought of that before he committed treason.
Booth, there's got to be some way you can meet with this guy and talk to him in secret.
This guy put dozens of agents' lives in jeopardy. What, you want me to give him some kind of special treatment?
He was trying to do the right thing.
Stop right there, okay? You never served. You don't get the right to defend this guy.
I'm just saying, Booth––
[interrupts] What you're saying is that it's okay for this guy to put other people in danger. You know what? It's not.
