Bones: The Tough Man in the Tender Chicken
March 4th 2010 21:27
When a local chicken farmer who worked at a local chicken factory—a factory where people protest vehemently for it’s inhumane treatment of animals—shows up on the riverbank, Booth, Bones, and the Squints must figure out who would want to kill him. Meanwhile, seeing the awful conditions the poor chickens live in at the factory, Angela sets out on her own animal-right’s campaign and enlists the help of her friends to adopt a pig. Bones doesn’t understand why Angela would want to save one pig, but Booth and Sweets convince her that this means a lot to Angela, and Bones writes her friend a check. A little pig is saved!
Hodgins: (Referring to a scout troop) What I want to know is why they're not all freaked out and getting trauma counseling?
Cam: Because they're the type of children who idolize Dr. Brennan.

Wendell: Look, man, the trouble with getting your info from conspiracy nuts, they never know when to turn it off.
Hodgins: Hey, you wait and see. We're gonna find out our victim was tortured a little to enthusiastically and then the government tried to bring him back to life.
Wendell : Proven my point, Hodgins. Totally proven my point.
~*~*~
[b]Bones[/b[]:: Now you're just delving into pure science fiction.
[b]Booth: Like a flatworm that's not science fiction. Or half-chicken that's not considered half-chicken.
~*~*~
Booth: Okay, so you want me to go ask the Defense Department if their experimental Super Soldier is half-man half-chicken?
~*~*~
Josh Parsons: Please I didn't kill anyone. I'm an extreme pacifist.
Bones[/b[]:: That's an oxymoron. You're either extreme, or pacifist. You can't be both.
~*~*~
[b]Angela : How are we friends? H-how is it possible? I mean we have nothing in common.
Bones[/b[]: What? You don't want to be friends any more because the pig is cute?
~*~*~
[b]Booth: (Quietly) Everything okay there, Bones? I know when there's something wrong with you. Something's wrong, right? What can I do to help?
Bones[/b[]:: Angela and I had a fight.
[b]Booth: (Loudly) Nothing I can do to help!
Bones[/b[]:: You want to hear about it?
[b]Booth: No.
Sweets: Why not?
Booth: Why? Because her and Angela are best friends. And Bones is gonna want me to take her side and agree that Angela was wrong. And then you know, the two of them are going to make up and then they're going to get mad at me. So no thank you.
~*~*~
Booth: [Booth grabs Bones's hand as she's leaving] Whoa. Whoa. Listen Bones, everything's going to be okay between you and Angela. All right? You two are like sisters.
Bones[/b[]:: I'm just... not used to not getting along with people.
[b]Sweets: Seriously? Because it seems like -
(the table thumps)
Bones[/b[]:: Thanks Booth.
~*~*~
[b]Sweets: Sometimes you don't save the world, Dr. Brennan... Sometimes you just make your friends happy.
Bones[/b[]:: Even when it's irrational? (looks at photo) He is very... very cute. I mean it's almost like he's smiling.
~*~*~
[b]Bones[/b[]: You noticed something. See? You still got it.
[b]Booth: You're not going to ask me what I saw?
Bones[/b[]:: Do I want to know?
[b]Booth: No... Do you want to know anyway?
[b]Bones[/b[]:: No. I can wait... I trust you.
