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

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.

Right.

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

Right. I remember. I was there.

You told Brennan about that thing that I do!

It's a very good thing.

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

You mean did I give you credit?

Yes! Did you?

No.

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

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.

I believe my books are popular because they introduce the reader to the world of forensic anthropology. Why aren't you writing? You usually write down everything.

RIRiku Inagawa

Why did it take so long for Dr. Reichs to have sex with Agent Andy?

For the same reason that she used stable isotopes to determine that the victim spent her childhood in east Timur. The oxygen isotopes we ingest through food and water are incorporated into the hydroxocarbonic appetite of bone. You should be writing this down.

IInagawa

Will she ever tell Andy about her affair with Ryan?

That was inconsequential fluff, Miss Inagawa.

IInagawa

It's why they fight in chapter six.

They identify the lotus tooth in chapter six.

IInagawa

That is when their passion is released. Page 187.

Why are you only asking about things that mean nothing?

IInagawa

Those are the things that mean everything.

Do you own a gun, Mr. Ceraficki?

CCeraficki

Of course, I own a gun! This is a pawn shop! I never have to use it. I mean, I wave it around from time to time, but --

BBrenna

Why is he allowed to carry a guy after being arrested on a concealed weapon charge?!

CCeraficki

Innocent mistake. I accidentally put it in my pocket, you know, when I left work.

Could I see the gun, please?

CCeraficki

She's right over here.

Real easy there, pal! I don't want any sudden movements. No mistakes. That's it.

IInagawa

That is very sexy! Big Andy with a gun, protecting Kathy!

No, no. He is not Andy and I am not Kathy. [smiles] It's even more exciting when he shoots someone with it.

Bones.

Well, it is, Booth, and it's very impressive! He never misses.

IInagawa

Andy sometimes misses!

Yes! See?

I still can be surprised by people.

Is that good or bad?

Bad, I think. I don't know.

Well, if she's convicted, even with good behavior, she'll be in prison for the next fifteen years.

He said they're soulmates and he'll wait for however long it takes for her to get out.

Soulmates?

Soulmates. Yeah.

The idea of soulmates actually originated with Plato.

Yeah, from the clay kids play with.

No! The anc -- aw. [laughs] You're joking.

Me, joke? No. [smirks]

The ancient Greek philosopher. His theory was that humans originally consisted of four arms, four legs and two faces. Zeus was threatened by their power and split them all in half. Condemning us all to spend our lives trying to complete ourselves.

[smiles] I don't believe that's true.

[laughs] I agree. It's ridiculous.

Right? [they smile]

[notices Sweets looking distracted] Sweets?

[snaps out of it] Yeah, yeah. Sorry.

You sure you're ready to come back to work?

Yeah, I'm fine.

That guy in the subway, one way to look at it is, um, that he died happy.

[looks at Booth curiously] What?

You think about. Guy gets this great news. What does he do? He shares it with a stranger.

You're gonna think I'm stupid for saying this but the whole thing, it felt like a message.

Right, a message. I believe in messages.

Yeah, it was like a message. "Go ye forth and live life to the fullest". Something like that.

[smiles] Live life to its fullest. Maybe we should do that more often. Moment to moment, day to day.
