Amy: Amy Morton.
Brennan: Temperance Brennan.
Amy: You work with Booth?
Brennan: Yes. I'm a forensic anthropologist.
Amy: I'm a defense lawyer; I tend to work against Booth.
Booth: If it's all the same, I'd rather you two didn't bond in any way. (edit) Hodgins: (about Zack) He's weird, but he's smart. (edit) Brennan: Let’s pretend we are objective scientists and not indulge in conjecture. (edit) (Booth and Brennan at Wuang Fu's)
Booth: You know, I’m sorry for wrecking your weekend for nothing.
Brennan: No, not for nothing.
Booth: Ah, you know what I mean. You know all that running around it didn’t change anything. Epps was guilty. He was always guilty.
Brennan: There was doubt. We had an obligation to respect that doubt. We all share in the death of every human being.
Booth: Very poetic.
Brennan: No, very literal. We all share DNA. (very earnestly) When I look at a bone it’s not some artifact that I can separate from myself. It’s a part of a person who got here the same way I did. It should never be easy to take someone’s life. I don’t care who it is. (Booth stares at her intently for a long while) What? (he continues to stare and a smile begins to form on his lips) What?
Booth: You know you’ve been practicing your Nobel prize speech just a little too much. (edit) (Booth and Brennan are in a conference room in the FBI building, sitting across from each other. Booth is filling out a form.)
Booth: Name?
Brennan: You know my name.
Booth: Bones, you are making an official request to the FBI to be allowed to carry a concealed weapon. I have to follow protocol.
Brennan: It’s ridiculous.
Booth: Fine. Then we’re done here. Do you want to get some coffee?
Brennan: My name is Dr. Temperance Brennan.
Booth: Reason for wanting a gun?
Brennan: To shoot people.
Booth: Not a good response.
Brennan: It’s the truth.
Booth: You know, I’m writing self defense in the performance of my duties pursuing suspected felons as contracted out to the FBI.
Brennan: So I can shoot them.
Booth: (gives her a look but continues undeterred) Have you ever been charged with a felony?
Brennan: Charged or convicted?
Booth: Charged.
Brennan: You know I have.
Booth: I have to ask the questions.
Brennan: Bureaucratic nonsense. (edit)
Brennan: Temperance Brennan.
Amy: You work with Booth?
Brennan: Yes. I'm a forensic anthropologist.
Amy: I'm a defense lawyer; I tend to work against Booth.
Booth: If it's all the same, I'd rather you two didn't bond in any way. (edit) Hodgins: (about Zack) He's weird, but he's smart. (edit) Brennan: Let’s pretend we are objective scientists and not indulge in conjecture. (edit) (Booth and Brennan at Wuang Fu's)

The number, thought to be a telephone number, 240-251-0221 is said to belong to an old woman living in a nursing home. The 251 exchange in the 240 area code is located in Mount Airy, Maryland. Mount Airy is just west of Baltimore on Interstate 70. The number is currently assigned to a land line; therefore, it could not belong to a woman living in a nursing home.
(edit)
Goof: When Booth is interviewing David Ross at the FBI building you can see that his gun is still in his holster. This is a violation of procedure - a weapon would never be allowed in an interview with a man suspected of killing someone.
