FBI Special Agent James Aubrey: Do you really think you're gonna do better than me?
Special Agent Seeley Booth: You should get out while you can.
FBI Special Agent James Aubrey: Look, I know that what happened to you is messed up. And then what happened to Sweets. But remember that Sweets trusted me to work with you. So when you treat me like crap, you're treating Sweets like crap, too.

Early in the episode we're told that the victim's cortisol levels are low, so much so that he had to be enjoying whatever was happening to him at the moment he was killed. This leads them to a chain of inquiry that reveals the victim was into S&M and therefore not feeling threatened when he died. Given what we later discover about the exact circumstances of his death, however, the cortisol levels could not be so low. See more »Quotes
