“The Hot Dog in the Competition” · Season 7, Episode 2

In this episode: Temperance Brennan (3), Seeley Booth (3), Jack Hodgins (1), Lance Sweets (1), Finn (1), Saroyan (1)

Dr. Brennan, are you sure you don't want a chair? The way you're squatting, I'm worried that little guy in there is going to drop right out.

Thank you, but my uterus and cervical plug are quite healthy. Also, I'm not having a boy. It's a girl.

[smiles] A girl. [becomes alarmed] Excuse me?

The fetus inside my womb has female genitalia.

You guys are having a girl? That is so awesome!

Okay, wait. Just wait one second. Can I have a word with you here? You're guessing, right? What we're having?

No, I had an ultrasound at the doctor's this morning. Are you displeased with the results?

No, I'm thrilled, but you can't just spring something like that on me in public. Why didn't you tell me that you had a doctor's appointment?

Ultrasounds are poorly pixelated and black and white. You only like movies that are in color.

I would have loved this movie! It would have been my favorite movie of all time!

I had no idea that our child's genitals were so important to you.

Bones, I am the father.

Did your interest in forensics stem from a plan to murder your stepfather?

FAFinn Abernathy

Yes, ma'am, it did.

Dr. Soroyan mentioned that he was physically abusive to both you and your mother.

He had a temper. Probably why I behaved like I did. I could never find a way to make the mad go away.

So did you murder your stepfather, Mr. Abernathy?

No, ma'am. I did not.

What stopped you?

I read a paper you wrote: postmortem dismemberment analysis. I knew no matter how careful I was I'd never get away with killing him. At least not with ya'll around.

I like to think that's true.

I took it as a sign from above to keep me on the straight and narrow. I haven't so much as talk in church since.

What happened to your stepfather?

Last time I saw him I told him he was a dead man if he ever touched my mama again. I guess the son of a bitch didn't know I was bluffing.

I can imagine how it must feel to know people are thinking that you did something like that.

I appreciate that.

[affects southern drawl] You must never walk out again, you hear? There ain't gonna be no more second chances. [smiles at Mr. Abernathy] I love John Wayne movies.

I owe you an apology.

An apology? Wait a second, is this you apologizing to me or me apologizing to you for something that I don't understand?

I understand how upset you must have felt not to be included at the ultrasound. While I wish I could undo what I've done to you, I can't.

That's okay. An apology is enough.

Really? Because I have more.

Oh. I'll always take more. What do you have in mind?

Well, the doctor made me a DVD of the ultrasound. While the resolution is not ideal, I feel certain that you will enjoy seeing this.

Of course I'm going to enjoy seeing it. [whispers] Oh, wow. [He stands up] Look, that's the heartbeat.

[smiles] You're happy.

Of course I'm happy! Look at that! She kicked!

[laughs] She has your prominent mental protuberance.

Is that a good thing?

Yes. It's a very good thing.

(freaking-out on seeing a python emerge from the intestines of a dead woman during an examination) Somebody kill that thing!

BDr. Brennan

(wide-eyed,on her cellphone to Hodgins) You can come back to the lab. We discovered the warm place where the python was hiding. (Finn pulls the python from the corpse, and holds it up to his face.)

FAFinn Abernathy

(to Cam) Oh, I got to say, Ma'am, this is the best damn job, ever.

[In the interrogation room]

TTobin

[to Booth, glances at Sweets] What's with the scrawny guy? Thought he'd be dealing with that pregnant chick who took me down. [smirks] I liked her.

You really don't wanna go down that road, buddy.

No, you really don't. The little girl she's carrying is his daughter.

TTobin

[smile fades from his face] Oh.
