"Well, the techs said there's no sign of struggle, so tell you what, I'm gonna go take a look on the trails here and see if I can find any evidence." "BRENNAN:" "The pronounced linea aspera of the left femur indicates the victim is male, while the degeneration on the femoral head suggests he was in his 40s." "Well, this is strange." "There's a piece of plastic fused to the flesh on the victim's wrist, but there's no evidence of burnt tissue." "HODGINS:" "Oh, it's almost as mysterious as Dr. B's birthday party." "Oh, speaking of which, I know it's a surprise, but can you give us a hint on the dress code?" "Yes." "Wearing clothes would be advisable." "BOOTH:" "Couldn't find a trail, but found this, huh?"

"Anyway, based on the colonization of mold spores on the marijuana that was in the pipe, I was able to determine that it was last smoked, like, 80 hours ago, so..."

"Yeah, uh, he came in from the, uh... well, the northwest corner, probably around 11:30 or so, 'cause Animation Domination was on by the time I got home." "Uh, what's this about, anyway?" "Someone dumped a body in those woods." "Talk about littering." "When will people learn to respect Mother Earth?" "BRENNAN:" "How is the facial reconstruction coming?" "Oh, I didn't need one."

"Yeah, as far as I know, they're not, but, I don't know, maybe our victim had a connection to the tech world." "Um..." "(quietly):" "Wow." "You guys are never gonna believe this, but I just won a MacArthur Fellowship." "You know, the one that everyone calls the "genius grant"?" "Congratulations, Angie!" "That's unbelievable!" "BRENNAN:" "Truly!" "Uh, MacArthur is one of the most prestigious awards a scientist can get." "Yeah, I know, um... wow." "They said my work with the Angelatron was "groundbreaking.""

"MAN:" "To paraphrase Stephen Hawking, our focus at Social Cybernetics isn't so much artificial intelligence... as beneficial intelligence." "For a child on the autism spectrum, social interactions can be overwhelming, but robots like AMI provide a simple, stress-free interface, which allows them to make great strides." "Good work, Riley." "There's someone who deserves the genius grant." "Who would want to kill a guy like this?" "(music playing)" "(turns music off) You know, you're awfully quiet."

"I have no idea what that means, but Ian Goldberg's work was in artificial intelligence." "The robots he created have complicated neural networks that are designed to emulate the human brain." "Come on, no robot's brain i-is ever gonna beat a human one." "Are you kidding me?" "At the end of the day, humans have something that robots will never have." "What?" "The soul." "The existence of a soul has never been proven with scientific data." "Soul is not something you prove, Bo... ("Hot Blooded" by Foreigner plays)" "H-Hey!" "Listen to that!" "It's something you feel."

"(Brennan laughs)" "AMI, please come say hello to Agent Booth and Dr. Brennan." "(Brennan and Booth laugh)" "That's..." "really amazing." "Hello, Agent Booth," "Dr. Brennan." "Look at that." "I am very pleased to meet you." "AMI, your enunciation and speech patterns are incredibly nuanced." "I am also fluent in eight languages." "Whoa." "Really?" "Well, so am I." "Very impressive." "For a human." "As we continue to educate AMI on the subtleties of human emotions," "I'm afraid she's picked up a few bad habits." "This robot can recognize facial expressions?" "Yeah, better than most people." "AMI, please tell us what you observe." "Dr. Brennan appears 78% curious and 22% jealous." "Agent Booth is 94% amused and six percent skeptical." "And you, Kate, are 100% nervous." "Oh, well, of course I am." "I'm being questioned by the FBI." "Thank you, AMI." "Your work here is done." "So, um, you and Ian didn't have any bad blood, did you?" "Oh, no, we had a very fruitful working relationship." "Had Ian lived, I am confident that we would have reached singularity within the next decade." " Sorry, singularity?" " Uh, singularity is when intelligent machines become indistinguishable from humans." "So, did you notice anything unusual about Ian's behavior last Friday?" "Oh, unfortunately," "I was out of town, delivering a speech." "But I can give you his online calendar." "Ian was highly scheduled, so I'm sure everything that he did should be on there." "Bones, Bones, take a look at that guy with the..." "the wrist brace." "Excuse me, sir." "Yeah." "How'd you get that injury on your wrist?" "It's okay, Alan, they're with the FBI." "Then they should be smart enough to realize that it isn't an injury at all." "It's carpal tunnel." "You know, from sitting at a computer all day." "A compressed median nerve would not cause the knuckles to swell." "I'm a little bit bloated, so what?" "Ow!" "Whoa!" "Ow!" "You are hurting me." "Booth, it's just as I suspected." "Yeah." "His second and third metacarpals show significant angulation." "Speak English, please." "This man does not suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome, but he does have a boxer's fracture." "Don't need a robot to figure that out." "I've reviewed your medical records," "Alan, and the injuries to your metacarpals are an exact match for the bruises on Ian's skull." "Fine." "So I hit him." "That doesn't make me guilty of murder." "Well, I'm not sure I trust the guy that sucker-punched his boss in the back of the head." "I had just worked my third 16-hour day in a row when Ian tried to force me to work through the weekend." " I was tired." "I lost it." " Really?" "You know what I think?" "I think you mixed it up with Ian and you ended up killing him, that's what I think." "(laughs) That's ridiculous." "If one of my employees struck me on the skull, I'd have fired him on the spot." "Please." "Do you know how hard it would be to replace me?" "I am far and away the best coder they have." "BOOTH:" "That's great." "Where were you last Friday night?" "Same place I always am-- my desk at Social Cybernetics where I was coding all night long." "Well, our team will have to verify that." "Yeah." "Sure." "Go right ahead."

"is out to destroy humanity by enslaving the human race." "Yes, and Ian's favorite hobby was going onto their blogs and baiting them into fights." "The same Ian that built these robots that helped these autistic kids?" "I know-- that seems out of character." "Not if you knew the guy." "Ian's death may have been a loss to the field of artificial intelligence, but in reality... the guy was a dink." "Did he just say "dink"?" "I think he did." "Any word from the NFL?" "Not yet." "But I can't stop stressing about it." "Even if they do call Dr. Brennan for a reference, what if it backfires?" "You know, she does have a tendency to be blunt." "That is one way of putting it." "Do you think it'll seem like a red flag if I call the NFL and I ask them to use you as a reference instead?" "I think you should focus on your work and try not to worry so much." "(takes deep breath)" "Well, there certainly is plenty to focus on." "12 separate instances of blunt force trauma, and yet there's no consistency in directionality or size." "It's like the victim was hit with a bunch of different objects from... multiple angles." "After he was already dead?" "Yes and no." "There's also evidence of perimortem blunt force trauma on the frontal bone at the coronal suture." "It must have been obscured by all the postmortem damage." "Huh." "I'll have Hodgins swab, see if we can identify the murder weapon." "Oh, and, Daisy... if... the NFL doesn't hire you... you'll always have a job here."

"Tell me about it." "Look at this thing." "I mean, it's so insane that it's actually kind of brilliant." "Well, our victim was a computer genius." "Chances are his killer was pretty smart, too."

"So I was finally able to download AMI's neural network and it looks like this audio file is the last thing AMI recorded before her memory was wiped clean." "IAN:" "I look forward to meeting you, too." "No, let's keep it between us for now." "4:00." "3300 Industrial Drive," "East Roanoke." "Well, that's... definitely Ian's voice." "She must have recorded him talking on the phone." "And that address links to a company called Patriot Industries." "And it's located about a half mile from where Ian's body was found." "Look, Ian Goldberg doesn't go off the grid to a place like this without reason." "AUBREY:" "Who knows what he might have been doing here." "A company like Patriot Industries has its hand in all sorts of shady stuff." "Yeah, well, I mean, dealing weapons-- that's how they make the big bucks." "Oh, so you think that Matthew Coburn was right?" "I mean, if Ian was selling his A.I. to a weapons manufacturer, it'd makes sense that he'd go behind Kate's back." "Aubrey, hold up." "Take a look at this." "Wow, okay." "Not what I was expecting." "That's a good way of saying it." "Or putting it, not that I would put..." "You know..." "Hey, perverts." "Want to keep your greasy mitts off my dolls?" "Look, I didn't do nothing wrong." "Manufacturing sex dolls is not a crime." "Mr. Esposito, we don't have any problems with your business." "Well, that's not entirely true, but it's..." "We're here because you met with Ian Goldberg last Friday." "What are you trying to say?" "A guy like me can't hang out with a smart guy like that?" "Ian was murdered." "This warehouse is the last known place he went." "Ian's dead?" "I took a look at your old military records." "Well, it turns out that you were dishonorably discharged for..." "What'd they call it?" ""Excessive use of force."" "So, I had anger issues back then." "It's ancient history." "I think that Ian had the A.I. you wanted for your sex dolls, but he wouldn't give it to you, so you decided to convince him using force, you wound up beating him to death." "Now, why the hell would I do that?" "Ian and I were going into business together." "We were about to make millions." "What, selling, uh, robotic sex dolls?" "Sex bots are the future, my friend." "Right now, I'm selling dolls that look and feel just like real women for six grand a pop." "Now, can you imagine how much Ian and I would've raked in selling dolls that talk like real women, too?" "I mean, not real women, but the way you wish women would talk?" "But the deal never gets made and Ian ends up dead." "He was alive when he left our meeting." "Said he had to talk it over with his business partner." "Any idea where he was headed when he left?" "Just that he was tied up all weekend." "Now, look, if we're done here, I got business to deal with." "Oh, but hey... just to prove there's no hard feelings," "I'll let you test drive a couple of floor models in exchange for spreading the word about my dolls at the FBI." "No." "Aubrey." "I'm good." "We're good." "I still think Kate Dalton had something to do with it." "The woman dedicated herself to making robots for autistic children." "She couldn't have been too happy to learn that Ian was gonna put their A.I. in sex dolls." "Well, maybe so, but, Daisy, I mean, come on, her alibi was rock-solid." "Not to mention the fact that Ian owned a 55% stake in their company, so he didn't need Kate's permission to sell." "Ugh." "What could Ian's killer possibly have accomplished by hauling his body all the way out here?" "(sighs)" "Dr. Hodgins, I've been thinking about what you said about accepting things in life when they don't go your way." "And even if the NFL doesn't hire me," "I love being at the Jeffersonian." "And working with all of you." "Same here, Daisy." "Except for when you shot me." "God, will you ever let that go?" "It was an accident." "Oh, Daisy, look." "Sycamore tree." "That's a catbird nest." "There's a length of frayed rope over here with blood all over it." "This is definitely where Ian's body was hoisted." "I got something, too." "This is also where he was murdered." "This portable speaker's made from the same plastic resin and magnesium alloy I found in the blunt force trauma to Ian's skull." "But if Ian was killed here, why dump his body nearly a mile away?" "Come on, Bones, please tell me you got some prints off that portable speaker." "We did not." "However, I did just discover kerf marks that had been obscured by predation." "They're on the C3 and C4 vertebrae, each approximately .4 centimeters in size." "You're saying that our victim was stabbed in the neck with a really small knife?" "Knife wounds to those vertebrae typically suggest an attempt at decapitation." "Yeah, but who does that with a small blade like that?" "Come on." "Wait a second." "We're dealing with highly intelligent computer scientists." "It's possible they went to great lengths to obscure the evidence." "What if it's the opposite, okay?" "What if we're not dealing with a genius, but a knucklehead stoner who already told us he has a pocket knife?" "So, we ran a drug screen on Ian's blood." "Came up positive for LSD." "You two were tripping on acid together the night that he died." "So, whatever, man." "Ian and I did that sometimes." "Said it helped him think outside the box." "Doesn't mean I killed him." "Well, we found sodium nitrate in the knife wounds in Ian's neck." "Wh..." "What does that mean?" "It's a preservative used in sausages and other smoked meats." "See, man, the package said it was all natural." "Oh, crap." "Oh, look, man, I d..." "I didn't mean to do that, you know?" "I just got so mad about that stupid gift." "What gift?" "That portable Bluetooth speaker, man." "Let me get this straight: you killed Ian over a bad present?" "Look, I thought I was getting millions." "And at least I deserved to be." "Who do you think came up with the idea to put A.I. into sex dolls?" "That was me." "You..." "That was pure creative genius." "So when Ian said he made a deal and wanted to go to the woods to celebrate, I assumed I was getting a piece of that action." "All he gave me was a lousy portable Bluetooth speaker, so I hit him in the head with it." "You must have been tripping pretty hard to try to cut off his head with a pocketknife and then hide his body up a tree." "I..." "I took two tabs." "I wasn't thinking straight." "But you're gonna have a lot of time to think now, 'cause you're going to prison for a long time." "BRENNAN:" "Booth, the sodium nitrate in Ian's neck wounds did not conclusively prove that Randy's the killer." "Yeah, but I knew he'd buy it." "I mean, come on, see, Bones, you know, that's the difference between robots and people." "Robots-- they can't use their gut to feel out a situation." "Well, with technology advancing as quickly as it is, it's only a matter of time before artificially intelligent... (babbles) Look, you want to spend your whole birthday arguing about robots or, tell you what," "do you want to actually open up your gift?" "No..." "Booth, I specifically told you no presents." "You're gonna love it." "We'll see." "It's a letter approving a court date for Zack's appeal?" "I know it's a couple months away but at least it's on the books." "The judge says that her reason for approving the appeal is to consider new osteological evidence." "I have no evidence of the sort." "I know you don't." "But, you know, I have faith you're gonna find it." "Booth, I can't embark on my research with the presumption of Zack's innocence." "I have faith in you." "But your belief in me does make me very happy." "Glad you liked your gift." "(indistinct conversations)" "HODGINS:" "I want to know what's in the box." "Am I the only one who's nervous?" "About what's in the box?" "I think she means about Dr. Brennan." "Yeah." "She claims that she was cool with me winning the MacArthur Fellowship, but she can be a bit competitive." "Yeah, but come on, don't most people freak out when they turn 40?" "Well, my daughter isn't like most people." "Grandpa, they're here." "Are we, like, supposed to hide or something?" "Uh, I... don't look at me." "Surprise!" "ALL:" "Hey!" "Surprise." "Thank you all for coming to my party and for your ardent curiosity, which made keeping the surprise all the more enjoyable." "Okay, Bones, hurry up, let's open the box, huh, okay?" "Oh, yeah." "Uh, Booth, Aubrey-- would you do the honors?" "Absolutely." "Thank you." "There, huh..." "Oh, wow!" "Hey, wow!" "Look at that, huh?" "Oh..." "Wait a minute, does that cake mean that I got the job?" "Congratulations, Dr. Wick." "Uh, though I did not ask for your cake to be decorated in this manner." "Most people aren't thinking forensics when they're talking about the NFL, Bones." "Sorry, why is there a cake for me?" "I thought we were here to celebrate your birthday." "That's the surprise." "This party is not only for me, it's a celebration of all of my friends and family." "HODGINS:" "Hold on a second." "So, you knew" "Daisy had the job the entire time?" "Of course." "I'm the one who recommended her." "And I also nominated Angela for the MacArthur grant." "You did?" "Yes." "But you made such a big deal about me not being a genius." "Well, I did do a rather remarkable acting job, didn't I?" "Uh, yeah, well, you certainly had me fooled." "I tell you, Bones, keeping a secret is not one of your strong suits." "That's a good job." "That's one of the many benefits of growing older." "We grow wiser in the process." "I'm really gonna miss you, Dr. Brennan." "Oh... (laughs)" "I'm gonna miss all of you." "Champagne..." "You are a highly-skilled scientist, Daisy." "You deserve all the success in the world." "BOOTH:" "Oh, Bones, time to blow out the candles." "Grandpa, you dropped this." "Oh... oh, thank you." "It's nothing." "Okay, we're lit up and ready to roll." "ALL:" "♪ Happy birthday to you ♪" "♪ Happy birthday to you ♪" "DAISY:" "I love to sing." "♪ Happy birthday... ♪" "♪ Doctor... ♪ ♪ Dear... ♪" "♪ Brennan ♪" "♪ Happy birthday ♪" "♪ To you. ♪" "BOOTH:" "Okay, make a wish, make a wish, make a wish." "There you go." "Hey." "(all cheer)" "== sync, corrected by elderman == @elder_man" "What's that mean?"
