Micah Leggat : [after listening to a recording of the victim] It's like a voice from beyond the grave.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Like my voice.
Micah Leggat : Very similar, yeah.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : It sounds exactly like my voice. She is me.
Micah Leggat : She isn't you. She's her, and you're you. You're alive and she's dead. Ergo. Ipso-facto. Colombo. Oreo.

Micah Leggat : Musing out loud? In the nine years that we've known each other, I've never heard you do that before.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Actually, Micah, I was having a conversation with the victim... I ask her questions... and she answers.
Micah Leggat : Tell you what, Doc, don't be mentioning that to anybody else but me.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Why?
Micah Leggat : Cause, uh, they'll think you've gone nuts.

Micah Leggat : By the power invested in me by the Jeffersonian Institution, I declare you sleep deprived. There's a cab waiting to take you home to bed.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Do you really have that power?
Micah Leggat : I saw a lecture with this New Age Guru type. Said the only power people exert on us is the power we allow them to exert.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Well, it's incredibly stupid.
Micah Leggat : I agree. You wave a gun in my face, you've got power whether I like it or not.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : How - how come I understand every word you say? Always. I don't have that with anybody else. Sometimes I just hear... noise.
Micah Leggat : Well, guess I've been here so long, I speak the secret language of the Jeffersonian.
-
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I have nothing left for me to discover from the hard evidence.
Micah Leggat : Well, that's the whole problem with being an Empirist.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : What is?
Micah Leggat : Eventually you run out of things to measure, smell and count.
