Dr. Gordon Wyatt : You know what? I'm going to ask you to go back to your bilious socks and your ostentatious ties, and your provocative belt buckles.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : What, you're saying that if I wear flashy socks, I'm going to forgive Hodgins?
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : [chuckling] Oh Lord, I'm not sure I'm that good. Well, perhaps I am... hmm.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Oh, hey, Doc, Doc, Doc, um... W-why is it that the, uh, the belt buckle is provocative?
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : Oh, it's a modern day codpiece. It forces the eye to the groin.

Special Agent Seeley Booth : One of the Squints - Hodgins - decided the rules, they didn't apply to him. He got entitled and jeopardized my murder case.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : Ah, and you confronted him physically.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Physical confrontation - that's my main skill.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : "Entitled," you said. Is he a wealthy man?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Yeah, like the guy who got killed.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : The murder victim... who tried to help a child and then died for it? And your... uh... Squint?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Yeah, Squint.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : Extraordinary. Your Squint tried to help a friend. So they both endeavored to do good.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : With no clue of the way things are.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : The way things are, as defined by a working class lad from Pittsburgh.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : That's right. Pittsburgh, where I'm from, all right? From the streets. Where you get a sense of how the world really is.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : Yes, I'm sure that's true. But has it occurred to you that without the distortion of reality provided by a privileged upbringing, there'd be no such thing as the Sistine Chapel, the Taj Mahal, the Three Rivers Stadium, home of your beloved Steelers?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : The Three Rivers Stadium was demolished in 2000. But it was a great place, though, that Lambert...
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : No doubt. The point is, you rebel in your way, your friend rebels in his. We all of us have to overcome our upbringing, rich and poor alike.
