S8 E19The Doom in the Gloom

[Sweets is on the phone with an insurance agent.]

Sorry.

Nah, it's ok. You're all good with the move? You need any help?

No, but thanks.

[looks at Sweets] All right. You sure checked the building out for asbestos and plumbing leaks and cracks and the foundation...

Yeah. All good.

'Cause I don't wanna hear any crazy excuses from you that you've gotta move back in.

[smiles] Not gonna happen. I'm set.

[unconvinced] You're ok living in a building full of shrinks.

Hey, you know, we have a lot in common, plus we have the skills to work out our disagreements in a healthy and constructive manner. [pats Booth on the back, grins] I'm gonna miss you too, Agent Booth.

[unamused] Right. Yeah. Well, I see all the time here at work. Plus I get my tub back and I won't have to look at the stupid pomegranate juice in my refrigerator.

You still haven't tried it yet.

No, I haven't. That's called shrink juice.

[shrugs] It's just pomegranate juice.

Why don't you gather all your new neighbors together and you can have a shrink juice party? [walks into his office]

That's good.

[shuts office door] Enjoy that!

[Cam and Angela see Hodgins setting up a cannon he "borrowed" from the Civil War collection for an experiment.]

This is not necessary, Hodgins. I already double-checked the figures. A cannonball fractured our victim's leg.

[while working] And I am not doubting that, Angie.

Then, why exactly are you doing this?

[excitedly] Have we all forgotten the concept of the double blind study?

[unimpressed] Doesn't apply to artillery.

Theories are improved as more evidence is gathered, so that accuracy and prediction improves over time. [Cam shakes her head] For that we need independent strands of evidence from a single foundational source. You cannot argue with that.

[subtly to Cam] So he's never shot the cannon?

Excuse me for loving my work. Goggles and ear protection, please. [hands Angela and Cam goggles and mufflers]

[...]

[Hodgins fires the cannon]

We have corroboration which is exactly what we want as scientists.

[grins] Of course. Now clean up this mess.

One more?

No.

It's all set up.

No. [turns and walks away with Angela]

[pleads] I made another cannonball!

No.

[...]

[out of Hodgins' earshot] That was actually awesome.

Totally. He must never know.

[grins at the sight of Booth in the "ookey room"] I cannot believe you're here. You hate the lab.

[Sweets' housemates Janet and Chrissie have come to help Sweets move]

CChrissie

[to Booth and Brennan] Nice to meet you, Mr. and Mrs. Sweets.

[stunned] Ohhh–– We're not....

[shakes head] Woah...

[...]

JJanet

[to Sweets on the way out] Your dad is hot!

[grins at Booth] Apparently you're hot, DAD!

Wow. Really. Did you just see that?

S8 E20The Blood from the Stones

[describing the particulates in the corpse] This is like Congress, only functional.

And now Andrew can get a good shot of Dr. Brennan's sidekick analyzing the particulates way over there.

Uh...um...I'm not a sidekick. I'm king of the lab!

[Booth flashes his badge to the storekeeper of a jewelry shop]

SStorekeeper

[nervously] Oh! Look how shiny that badge is.

Yeah that's really shiny.

Do you think Dr. Edison is more likeable than I am?

Ohhhh. [takes a deep breath] Likability is so subjective.

Not always. Pol Pot couldn't have been likable.

Maybe at parties.

[Inside the interrogation room, Metro PD Commander Joe Dinko is in for questioning. Booth and Caroline Julian are staring at him.]

JDJoe Dinko

I'm a cop. I know all about using the uncomfortable silence to make a suspect talk.

Then why don't you talk first? [To Booth, sarcastically] This is gonna be a walk in the park.

[to a suspect who keeps dodging his questions] Our stairwells are soundproof. You could break your neck trying to run away from me.

[...]

Where's the money?

MMarcos

What money?

If you say "what money" I'll drag you to the nearest stairwell.

[watching from the observation room] I'm in a totally different place.

S8 E21The Maiden in the Mushrooms

[Hodgins catches up with Finn on the Forensic platform.]

Finn, I've got the results.

From the victim's fingernail?

What? No, no, no, I'm still working on that. No, I have a molecular breakdown of your Grandma's secret sauce.

Oh, forget it. I've moved on.

No, you haven't, your still pissed, and I don't blame you. That stuff is awesome!

My Grandmother used to put it on my Catfish...

Oh, you're kidd...you're killing me here. I'm not gonna let that hot sauce die. [walks over to monitor] Now, look at this. I-I took a swab of the bottle and I ran it through the Mass-Spec, right, and I almost got everything. We've got Red and Yellow Peppers, ok, Cayenne, Tomatoes, of course, Garlic, Onions, Cumin, Salt, Brown sugar, Vinegar--it's just-it's just this one compound I cannot identify, and I hoping you'd know what it was.

Yeah, it's the one thing you'll never find.

Alright, but I've already got a portion of the molecular chain...

Love! It's love, Hodgins. That's not gonna show on your Mass Spec. Come on, let it go. [walks away]

No...Finn, come on...hey. I'm just one compound away.

[Finn leaves the Forensics Platform]

I'm gonna burn the crap outta your mouth and you are gonna love it!

[Another lab technician looks at Hodgins and wrinkles his nose, weirded out by the comment. Hodgins feels awkward for saying that so loud]

[In the interrogation room]

You seem to feel that anger is good solution to your problems, which I totally understand.

SSuspect

Yeah?

[nods, speaks rapidly] Yeah, sure. The release of adrenalin and noradrenalin in your system causes you to feel optimistic that your impulses are causing you to make, huh, reasonable risk assessments. It's a common correspondence bias.

SSuspect

[irritated] Are you screwing with me?

[earnestly] No. I'm simply pointing out that your lack of self control can cause you to make extremely poor decisions––

SSuspect

You said you're on my side!!

[raises hand to calm suspect down] No, he said he understood why you'd go psycho!

[glances at Booth] Ok, I wouldn't use that word but––

[impatiently to Sweets] I know. That's why I'm here.

Where were you on the 17th?

GGordie

I was at...at home, I think.

You think. You have someone to back up your story?

GGordie

My mom.

[deadpan] Your mom. You live with your mom. I bet Rebecca found that hot.

[Booth and Brennan are watching unaired footage of a drunk Judge Trudy]

Oh...wow...she wobbles and....oh...wow...ok, so what do you think, Bones?

The judge might suffer from a neuromuscular disorder.

[stares at the TV and then at Brennan in disbelief] She sloshed! [Brennan shakes her head, unsure of what Booth meant] Drunk!

Oh. That.

TTrudy

This line of questioning is absurd. Move on with it.

This is not your fake courtroom, Trudy. I call the shots here. You're more than a social drinker, aren't you? I can tell by the way your hand is shaking.

TTrudy

I have the occasional drink. Occasional.

[sarcastically] Right. Bet you had the "occasional" DUI. For me it was gambling, for my father it was drinking. I know a problem when I see one.
