Special Agent Seeley Booth : You know, I won't say anything about the scream, if you don't say anything about the gun.
Dr. Temperance Brennan : Those terms are satisfactory.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Right.

Delmy Polanco : If I give it to you, will you drop the trespassing charges and let me go?
Sheriff Jerry Bonds : If you don't hand it over, I'll just charge you with obstructing justice,
[indicates Booth]
Sheriff Jerry Bonds : He'll charge you with interferring with a Federal Investigation, and maybe even murder. And you will pray for the good old days where all you were worrying about was silly little trespassing and burgulary charges.

Special Agent Seeley Booth : Very usefu.

Sheriff Jerry Bonds : Nuh uh, FBI's got jurisdiction only if I *agree*. Otherwise you need jump through several legal hoops which will take some time during which time the victim stays in the meantime.
Dr. Temperance Brennan : Then why did you call us?
Sheriff Jerry Bonds : I could use the help. But I'm not gonna take the heat when people scream I sent an alien off to Washington for secret testing.

Sheriff Jerry Bonds : I've been through that before.

Special Agent Seeley Booth : You just basically said that aliens are nice anthropologists.
Dr. Temperance Brennan : [Chuckles] I don't think so.

Dr. Temperance Brennan : [laughs] You got me. You know, I - I'm one of them.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : I knew it!
Dr. Temperance Brennan : I was sent down as an advanced scout.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Ha! I knew it. No probing. No probing!
Dr. Temperance Brennan : Hey, probing is a valuable way of gathering information.
