Bones, Season 4

Brennan:
I have been to 74 interrogations with Booth, 42 in the room and 32 observing.

Angela:
Uh huh.

Brennan:
I should be able to do it.

Angela:
What? Interrogate?

Brennan:
Yes. I even engaged in a very interesting session with Sweets to improve my ability to manipulate people.

Angela:
[chuckles] Ohhh. That wouldn't work.

Brennan:
Why not?

Angela:
Because what Booth has, you can't learn from Baby Boy Shrink. Booth's brilliant at pretending to be stupider than he actually is most of the time.

Brennan:
Brilliant at stupidity?

Angela:
Uh-hmm. Especially around you.

[...]

Brennan:
Why would Booth do that?

Angela:
Well, he knows that you like to be the smart one and so he lets you have that.

[...]

Brennan:
You know, I am smarter than Booth.

Angela:
[smiles] Ok. So maybe you should just let him have the people skills part of the job to himself then.

[...]

[Brennan determines that the murder weapon is a pair of scissors]

Angela:
Hey sweetie. I think you'll find that the murder weapon was a pair of tailor shears.

Brennan:
Why?

Angela:
Why don't you run this information by Booth and see how quickly he comes to the same conclusion?
