- Dr. Temperance Brennan: Are Rangers afraid of SEALs?
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: What? Come on, Bones. No.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Rangers aren't afraid of anybody. All right?
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: SEALs are pretty good though.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: [while questioning the security guard]
- [to Dr. Goodman]
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: You know, you need a better screening process down at the museum.
- Dr. Daniel Goodman: Ironic, given we contract that out to the FBI.
- Angela Montenegro: You think it's a pirate?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: It's a 300-year-old finger from the left-hand of a male. That's *all* I'm sure of so far.
- Angela Montenegro: Worth killing for?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I worked a case once where a woman was killed, dismembered and burned because her friend thought she'd taken her favorite pair of slippers.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: [Walking along a hallway leading to the morgue] Welcome to the dungeon.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Why the FBI always stick their morgues in the most depressing basement they can find?
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Don't be such a snob Bones, ok? Not everyone gets to play in a multimillion dollar lab, you know... with skylights.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: It's because as a society we feel the need to hide death away. The people who deal with the death are viewed as freaks.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: [Looking at the bones, allegedly those of a pirate, on the computer screen] Maybe they're right. Maybe this man died burying a treasure. Ironic. Stealing all that and never enjoying the spoils.
- Angela Montenegro: So you believe there's treasure?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I believe there's greed. That's the real curse.
