Angela and Brennan in “The Foot in the Foreclosure”

Angela

Booth must be cute with his grandpa, huh?

Brennan

His grandfather calls him shrimp. Booth seems to like it, which I don't understand.

Angela

Well, it's because it makes him feel loved, like when he actually was a shrimp.

Brennan

So the moniker is a sign of affection?

Angela

Very good, Brennan. You never had a nickname?

Brennan

Oh, no, just what Booth calls me; just Bones.
