Bones: I find you very condescending
我覺得你這人還真是自我感覺良好。
Booth: Me? I’m condescending? I’m not the one who’s gotta mention that she’s got a doctorate every five…
我自我感覺良好？我可沒有老說自己有博士學(xué)位來著，每五分鐘就……

我的確有博士學(xué)位啊。
Booth: Yeah, well you know what. I’m the one with the badge and the gun. Huh? You know you’re not the only forensic anthropologist in town.
沒錯(cuò)，不過告訴你好了，我還有警章和槍呢。你沒吧？說起來方圓五百里又不是只有你這么一個(gè)人類學(xué)家。

你還想讓我怎么樣？要不要我朝手上吐口水來著？我們就是Scully跟Molder了嘛。（《X檔案》里面曖昧了11年的某兩只，男主演也叫David……囧 于是：你也想曖昧一個(gè)世紀(jì)？！）
Bones: I don’t know what that means.
我不懂你什么意思。（骨頭最標(biāo)志性的臺(tái)詞！滅哈哈，好可愛~~說起來，我不懂的是朝手上吐口水是什么意思……）

【文化背景】
Forensic anthropology 法醫(yī)人類學(xué)家

Bones劇集的原型Kathy Reichs就是一位著名的法醫(yī)人類學(xué)家。

'Forensic anthropology' is the application of the science of physicalanthropology and human osteology (the study of the humanskeleton) in a legal setting, most often in criminalcases where the victim's remains are more or less skeletonized.A forensic anthropologist can also assist in theidentification of deceased individuals whose remains aredecomposed, burned, mutilated or otherwiseunrecognizable. The adjective "forensic" refers to theapplication of this subfield of science to a court of law.

Scully and Molder 《X檔案》的Scully和Molder

《X檔案》同樣是當(dāng)年FOX熱門的劇集，演了漫漫11季，倆主角在靈異中曖昧。

TheX-Files is a Peabody, Golden Globe and Emmy Award-winningAmerican cult science fiction television series, created byChris Carter, which first aired in 1993 and ended in 2002. In theseries, FBI agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (GillianAnderson) are the investigators of X-Files:marginalized, unsolved cases involving paranormalphenomena. Mulder is a "believer" in the existence of aliens andthe paranormal, while Scully, a skeptic, is assigned by powerfulforces to debunk and control Mulder's unorthodox work. Infact, early in the series both agents turn into pawns in alarger conflict (termed the "mythology" or"mytharc" by the producers), and come to trust only each other,a close relationship which was interpreted by viewers as eitherplatonic or romantic.
