(Booth and Brennan are sitting next to each other in a church.)
Brennan: I'm okay with you thanking God for saving me and Hodgins.
Booth: That's not what I thanked Him for. I thanked Him for saving ... all of us. It was all of us, every single one. You take one of us away and you and Hodgins are in that hole forever. (Booth looks at Brennan whose eyes are glistening with tears.) And I'm thankful for that.
Brennan: I knew you wouldn't give up.
Booth: I knew you wouldn't give up. (edit) Cam: How are we going to get our hands on eight million dollars?
Zack: Hodgins is rich.
Cam: He is?
Zack: "Rich squared to the power of ten times four" is how he puts it. (edit) Hodgins: (blurts) I'm nuts about Angela. Over the moon. Stupid in love with her. That's why I bought her that ... that crazy, expensive perfume. A man gives you a bottle of perfume like that, it says ... it says, "I love you". (Brennan nods) There. I said it out loud. (edit) Booth: I need you to be Dr. Brennan.
Zack: (quoting Brennan) I don't know what that means. (edit) Booth: I got about 100 agents working that angle. What does this mean, right here. (taps monitor) What does that mean?
Zack: You're forgetting something, Brennan and Hodgins are out of air.
Booth: Great, you wanna give up, huh? This is Bones we're talking about and Hodgins. You really think they didn't find a way to extend their air supply? Hell, they found a way to send us a message, to ask us for help and you wanna give up because of math. (edit)

In the lab, when Angela translates Hodgins' code and says that they needn't investigate, but need millions of dollars to free Hodgins and Brennan, there is a clock in the background. At the beginning it reads 5:33, but after not even a minute of conversation, it reads 5:08, leaving 22 and a half minutes unaccounted for.
(edit)
Goof: The batteries in Nikon cameras are 7.4V, that would have been easier to step down with a resistor.
(edit)
Hodgins tells Brennan (and Cam gets told) that he is filthy rich.
(edit)
When the gang goes out to the parking garage and discovers the blood, someone tells Zack he's Dr. Brennan, and he replies "I don't know what that means," referencing what Dr. Brennan always says.
(edit)
Although it is suspected, we get to hear Hodgins voice his feelings for Angela that have been building up from the middle of last season. He finally admits that he loves Angela, to Dr. Brennan.
