- Ken Nakamura: Most of the FBI Agents showed up and started telling us how to handle our organized crime problem. Booth said nothing. Two, three days, just listening.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: He was quiet? That
- [slight chuckle]
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: that does not sound like Booth.
- Ken Nakamura: Then he asked a question. He asked "How would you gentlemen handle *our* organized crime problem?" He was respectful.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: That is the basis of your friendship?
- Ken Nakamura: That and the situation incited by a gallon of Sake on a police boat at Uruaga Harbor at dawn.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I myself have not one in my life whom I talk to that much, outside of work I mean. Perhaps that is good.
- Ken Nakamura: How so?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I can see how much pain you're in... Is it worth it?... To have your own happiness so contingent on another human being.
- Ken Nakamura: If I was willing to give up my life for Sachi... why would I not be willing to risk my happiness for her?
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I just mean that we should be designed so we can handle the worst.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: We *are* designed that way. We aren't sent anything we can't handle.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I'm not convinced that loving someone is worth it.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: I've got a son and it's worth it.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Even if he died?
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Whoa! Bones don't even say anything like that. Don't even put that out there. It is worth it. And everything around it is worth it... Every moment. Everything is worth it.
- Dr. Camille Saroyan: Why would someone cut off the head of a body here.
- [Points to one point on map]
- Dr. Camille Saroyan: And drive miles away to dispose of it here?
- [Pointing to another point on the map]
- Dr. Jack Hodgins: I rarely find motive in bird vomit.
- Ken Nakamura: If you think the photographer is the killer, I want to be there!
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Nak, if you budge from the Jeffersonian, I will put you on the first plane back to Japan. You understand? You know me. And you know that's true.
- [Booth ends the call]
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: You were kind of mean there, Booth.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Man's in big pain, Bones. Makes it hard for him to hear.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: What do you want me to do Nak?
- Ken Nakamura: I want to kill him.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Look, he could give us Sachi's murderer.
- Ken Nakamura: And then he goes free. The man who put my sister's head on a spike.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: If we don't cut this deal, then her murderer could walk.
- Ken Nakamura: This is your case, Booth. What I want doesn't matter.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: To me it does. It would to Sachi.
- Ken Nakamura: [Long pause] Cut the deal.
- Dr. Haru Tanaka: You are entering the realm of psychology, a field of unverifiable speculation. Perhaps I can be of further assistance to Dr. Brennan.
- [Tanaka leaves the room]
- Dr. Lance Sweets: Sometimes I *hate* hard science. I know that seems immature but that's just how I feel.
- Dr. Lance Sweets: [speaking of Dr. Tanaka] Uh, you people can identify human remains from a tiny little finger bone. But you can't identify the sex of the person standing right in front of you? Does nobody else see the irony in this?
- Dr. Jack Hodgins: Of course. But as a scientist, I also see the challenge.
- Micah Strutt: That old jerk fire them for this. This is the 21st century, who cares about a little skin, right?
- [Nakamura steps forward]
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: He does. That's his sister.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: [to the masseuse] Hitting the illohypogastic nerve can can be extremely painful.
- [Demonstrates on Vogler. Vogler screams in pain]
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Where's the sword?
- Paul Vogler: I
- [Bones applies more pressure. Vogler screams again]
- Paul Vogler: God! I am not saying another word to you people without my lawyer.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Fine. That's fine with us. We'll be in touch. Come on Bones.
- [Booth and Bones leave. As they're almost out the door Vogler screams in pain. They look back and see the masseaus applying pressure to the nerve]
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Oh, she's a quick learner.
- Special Agent Seeley Booth: Yeah. Very quick.
- Angela Montenegro: Then I bypassed the password protection by hacking into the server where his webaddress is registered.
- Dr. Camille Saroyan: Why do I feel like my checking account isn't safe?
- Ken Nakamura: [speaking of his sister] She felt like a woman. Wanted to be rid of big brother watching her all the time.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: My parents left me and my brother when I was 15. My brother was the only family I had. But he left me too.
- Ken Nakamura: I'm sorry.
- Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I turned out quite well actually. But it would have been nice to have a brother like you.
