- Mr. Bones: [footsteps] I thank you both for meeting me here. I'd ask if you came alone, if I didn't already confirm you had.
- Alex Danvers: What's the deal, Bones? Don't trust us?
- Mr. Bones: I don't trust anyone... Nothing personal.
- Nightshade: What's this about?
- Mr. Bones: The death of Vic Sage.
- Alex Danvers: Who?
- Nightshade: How do you-?
- Mr. Bones: You're both investigating the same case, but you don't know it yet. I want you two to compare notes... covertly. You two cannot be seen working together, but you'll have much better results if you do this. Trust me.
- Nightshade: I'm... I'm on leave. this is not a CBI investigation.
- Alex Danvers: But you are a CBI agent and thus a DEO agent. [sigh] Look, Nightshade, I'm on a DEO investigation... and if we are actually working on the same case and don't know it, then I think your leave's just been cancelled.
- Mr. Bones: [chuckle, lighter wheel cranked, cigar lighting] Not cancelled, just temporarily suspended...
- Nightshade: Why's the DEO so interested in the death of Vic Sage anyway? What do you know that you aren't telling us, Bones?
- Mr. Bones: An interesting question... [inhaling smoke, exhaling smoke] You know, I'm a big fan of the Question... you know, in general. [chuckle]
- Nightshade: [quiet gasp] You know?
- Alex Danvers: Sir, not to argue but you hate questions. You hate not having answers and you hate being questioned.
- Mr. Bones: Oh. I know. [chuckle, footsteps, inhaling smoke, exhaling smoke] Good luck piecing it all together. I expect a full report! [chuckle]
