    • The airport scene at the end of the episode is filmed at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
    • In the hoarder's apartment, the bobble head from London can be seen, as well as the cover for a Motley Crue album, reference's to season four episodes "Yanks in the UK" and "End in the Beginning".
    • The clock in the victim's apartment continuously flashes "4:47". This is the exact same time shown on the clock next to Booth's bed in the first scene of the 4th season finale, "The End in the Beginning."
    • In the scene where Hodgins is in the victim's apartment and Angela's dad appears, he screams, but specifically mentions that it was a "yelp," not a scream. A very similar conversation can be heard in the flashback portion of the 4th season finale "The End in the Beginning" when Zack argues that he "yelped", not screamed, after seeing the dead body.
    • When Hodgins is sitting in the hoarder's apartment and calls Booth regarding the accountant lead, he is sitting next to a pile of chicken wings and celery. This pile of wings is likely the same pile of wings alluded to in last year's season finale "The End in the Beginning," during Booth's dream: Cam: Your wings have been voted best in the city two years running. Fisher: Not best. Tallest. I'm the originator of the "Tower of Wings."
    • When Booth is looking at a picture of him from his days in the army (while on the phone with Hodgins), the person in the picture with him is Teddy Parker, the ghost he saw in the season four episode "The Hero in the Hold."

    • Brennan: (about her and Booth's trips) Perhaps it's all for the best. Angela: You two at opposite ends of the world? I don't- I don't think so.
    • Parker: I want you to save lives. Booth: Yeah well I do that here. Parker: No, here, you catch people that kill other people. There, you would make it so people won't die. Isn't that better?
    • Sweets: So have you found anything that points to the killer? Hodgins: No, not unless he was trying to hoard the hoarder's hoard.
    • Cam: (at the airport) I've ... really enjoyed working for you, Dr. Brennan. Brennan: In fact, Dr. Saroyan, I worked for you. Cam: We both know better.
    • Caroline: If it's gonna be your last case together, then do it properly. Bones: It's not our last case. Booth: We'll be back in a year. Caroline: Tight as a drum, that's what I want. And trust me, the way you two are running from each other, you'd better be damn sure of these little trips you're taking.
    • Sweets: Daisy's going to, uh, Indonesia. She doesn't really care if I go with her. Hodgins: Ooh. Ouch! Booth: Sweets, no offense but, you might be better off without her. Sweets: Dr. Brennan was asked to head up the expedition, will you be better off without her?
    • Angela: Listen, you're allowed to make life changes without, picking a fight with your old life. Brennan: But I need a break from that life. I'm worried all the time. Worried that Booth might get hurt on a case and I couldn't prevent it, worried ... about what our, partnership means ... Angela: So you want to get away from Booth? Brennan: No, it's just (pauses) I just need some perspective so that I can view my life with some objectivity.
    • Booth: Listen Bones ... you got to be really careful in that Indonesian jungle, okay? Brennan: Booth, in a week you're going to a war zone. Please don't be hero. Please, just ... don't be you.
    • Sweets: You don't think the success might make them change their minds? Caroline: You know what? You're a nice kid, but today is a good day for you to grow the hell up.
    • Cam: Are you really leaving the Jeffersonian? Brennan: Yes. For a year. I can provide you with a list of forensic antropologists who can do this job. Cam: No, Dr. Brennan, you can provide me with a list of forensic antropologists. Brennan: I don't know what that means.
    • Sweets: So what, I should just go? I should just, give up my career and my life and my friends and my practice, and go to Indonesia? Hodgins: Hey, I'm about to risk dismemberment just to impress my scary father-in-law. Sweets: How are you gonna get past the dogs? Hodgins: I don't know. Sweets: How are you gonna start the car? Hodgins: I don't know. Sweets: How are you gonna get the car through the gate? Hodgins: I don't know. Sweets: How are you gonna evade the angry bikers? Hodgins: Ugh, I haven't got a clue. Sweets: Okay. Good plan, what do I do? Hodgins: Survive and tell the story of my love.
    • Angela: Okay, what I did was modify my mass recognition program -- patent pending -- to scan the photographic reconstruction of the crime scene, to find areas of comparatively less chaos. Hodgins: Awesome. Cam: (surprised) You understand what she's saying? Hodgins: Not in the least, but I am so turned on by her brain. I'd like to see her brain totally naked. Sweets: It's a terrible image. It's just terrible.

    • While investigating the case, Brennan learns that the victim starved to death and was trapped under a pile of his own hoardings. This is an allusion to the Collyer brothers of New York City, perhaps two of the most famous hoarders of all time, who were found dead in their home in 1947. Homer Collyer, who was blind, died of starvation waiting for his brother to bring him food. His brother, Langley Collyer, died while trying to bring food to his brother when one of the piles of hoarded materials collapsed and crushed him.
