- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: Based on the lack of hemorrhagic tissue, this victim was already dead when cut in half.
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: He's in the water, drowning maybe, or- or is pushed from a boat. When he reaches for the boat, his fingers are smashed, he drowns, and then is cut in half later in some... maritime mishap.
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: "He"?
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: Mm-hmm. Triangular pubis, no evidence of a ventral arc. The pelvic bone speaks. It says "I be male."
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: The pelvic bone can say whatever it wants to say. This part here says female.
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: What part's that?
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: It's called a vagina.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Redemption through transformation. I get it. What do you believe?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I believe in always swimming with a buddy.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: What?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: You gather your wisdom. I gather mine.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Would you like me just as much if I were a man?
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Oh yeah, much better. Wouldn't have to be so polite and accommodating. How about you, would you like me better if I were a woman?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: No. I would not.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Why?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I'd be jealous that you might be prettier than I am.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: I would be too. I'd be hot. Smokin' hot.
- Dr. Jack Hodgins: Does Brennan put "Mister" in front of your name?
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: Yes.
- Dr. Jack Hodgins: It's her very subtle way of saying you're not a doctor.
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: Don't tell him that!
- [as Dr. Brennan and Agent Booth arrive at the beach-side memorial for Pastor Patricia Ludmuller, Booth bows his head and covers his face with his hand]
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: What are you doing?
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: I'm praying, Bones.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: You aren't a member.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: [sharp tone] It's not a gym, Bones!
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: What? You afraid your father's going to burn in hell?
- Ryan Stephenson: No... No. I just wish I had a chance to know the new him - her.
- Ryan Stephenson: One of God's challenges to us is to see past the surface.
- [picks up a book and tears up the dust cover]
- Ryan Stephenson: To the deeper essential nature, which lies right beneath.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: You believe our bodies are like dustcovers?
- Ryan Stephenson: That's exactly what I think, Agent Booth. Rip them off, and see what's underneath... You see, all this time I though my father was killed, or had abandoned me, and that's just not what happened. He didn't want to shake my faith. He was protecting me from the truth. He... he didn't want me to have to choose between him and God, and I love my father for that. I just hope God can forgive me for making him feel that way.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Have you made many of these "ain't-too-proud-to-beg" calls in the past?
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: What do you say we just stay focused here?
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: Did you know that over 98% of people will respond with "Thank you" if you say, "You're welcome"?
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: You're welcome.
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: Thank you.
- Ryan Stephenson: I think I should begin my first sermon to you as kind of an introduction. My name is Ryan Stephenson. I'm a child of man. I'm a child of woman. But more importantly, I'm a child of God, and as I look around I see others like me. We don't look alike. None of us look alike. On the outside, we are gay and straight, black and white, fat and thin, man and woman, saint and sinner. Should I keep going, or do you guys catch my drift? But inside... inside we are all the same.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: That is completely incorrect.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Not now, Bones.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Our skeletons are wildly different or I wouldn't have a job.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Just listen.
- Ryan Stephenson: I am sorry that I didn't get to know my father - Patricia. But I hope I will find him... her... that redeemed human being... both in her old Bible
- [holds Patricia's bible]
- Ryan Stephenson: and, more importantly, in you, the people who she loved.
- Dr. Jack Hodgins: [after Vincent greets Angela suggestively] Are you familar with the phrase "that's way too much car for you"?
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: I believe that's one of ours, so yes.
- Angela Montenegro: [to Hodgins] I want to show you something.
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: [suggestively] And I want to show *you* something.
- Angela Montenegro: [annoyed] Vroom-vroom, kid. You're already in my rearview mirror.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: [after Bones explains in some detail the procedure to turn a man into a woman] New rule: No surgical details, all right.
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: Is there a way to quit working here without losing Dr. Brennan as my grad supervisor?
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: I see. You'd like to quit this internship without losing your academic standing.
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: Yeah.
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: Can I ask why?
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: It's absolutely impossible to kiss your own elbow.
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: And how is that relevant?
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: It isn't, Dr. Saroyan, but, um... I'm someone who loves knowledge, and all of you are very narrowly focused. It's a good focus, I know, catching murderers, but, um, all in all, I'd rather be like me than like you, so if you can help me out...
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: I'll take care of it with Dr. Brennan.
- Dr. Camille 'Cam' Saroyan: We'll show these images to Dr. Brennan.
- Vincent Nigel-Murray: Why?
- Dr. Jack Hodgins: She'll see something you missed.
