C'mon, Bones, you ought to take time to smell the primates!

Why? They're malodorous and they throw their excrement.

[the girls have finished telling Hodgins how female lions are better than the males after discussing how obnoxious men are]

I'm thinking the victim wandered away from his car, he was drunk, and he ended up in this area. The same thing happened to a guy last year in the giraffe section.

Giraffes are herbivores. They don't eat people.

That part is different, but the guy broke his arm. Did you know that giraffes can weigh up to two tons?

Yes. Everyone knows that.

And they sleep less than two hours a day.

That I did not know.

Yes! Pinky stumps The Brain!

Ooh, what is that smell? Are you wearing cologne?

It's urine. I found traces of uric acid on the victim's clothing.

Oh.

It was the pheromones you found pleasing.

Yeah, yeah. The pheromones in tiger urine?

Well, I assume it was tiger urine. The cat was probably marking its territory.

I was turned on by tiger urine?

[Laughs] Celibacy isn't easy, Ang.

Tell me about it.

We're scientists. We can't quantify or rely on our emotions. They're arbitrary and indeterminate.

We know people through our feelings, Dr. Brennan. You trust Booth because of how you feel.

No, I trust Booth because of past actions.

And faith in the future. I'm sorry, but feelings are important. Even to you.

[Angela walks in with her sport outfit]

Hey, I used the measurements of the injuries, drawing different scenarios on possible weapons.

[looking at Angela's outfit] And you did this while jogging?

Well yeah, I was..burning off a little of my extra desires on my way to work...sweet-pea.

Sweet-pea's an inappropriate workplace moniker

Don't worry Clark, I won't eat you...Not that I'm not tempted.[smiles]

Angela? Can I borrow you for a little while?

[excitedly] To do what with?

[Sweets stumped by Angela's tone]

Angela (to a giraffe during a hypnosis session) Dude, you're blocking my light!

Anything of value yet?

We're cataloging injuries. I thought you would be with Booth.

Questioning people isn't really my thing. Most of the time I just want to beat them until they tell me what I want to hear.

I know, it gets frustrating, and hitting can quite often be effective.

You both work with the Justice Department?

Yes.

Ironic.

[in a chat during coffee break]

Welton cheated on you?

That's why I left

Does that bother you?

Sweetie, how many times do I have to tell you that, most people don't like to be cheated on?

The only people who don't mind are just given up..

..Or are very very rational [looking at Brennan, Cam realized Angela's reference about Brennan] and are above those archaic notions of monogamy [Brennan nods a little]

Right, yes, of course, I'm not..quite..evolved..enough.

Despite the fact that I would love to have my legs wrapped around one right now, men are awful [Brennan gave an agreeing look]

[Hodgins walks in with information]

[to Hodgins] Hey, you wanna stay and have a drink?

[Cam snapped her fingers at Angela]

He does have a terrific ass

Oh, perhaps that's why you're always making him leave [smiles] [Angela smirks and nods]
