Comic Con Video Transcripts

I was a nut, so I wrote out a transcript for people who either didn't catch things, are hard of hearing, or don't speak English as a first language... took forever! lol

Key:
{?} = not sure if I got the phrase right.
{???} = missing phrase or word.

Full Comic Con Transcript



Announcer: My favorite from last season was the one with the

fraternity {???} Did you see that episode? {crowd says whoo

hoo!} We're going to have a lot of fun for you today {?} let's

first meet the creator of this amazing show, Hart Hanson.

{crowd cheers} And you knwo her as the gorgeous, beautiful

Temperance Brennan... {crowd cheers too loudly to hear much

else} You can be strong because we have some disappointing

news, but he taped something for us. {crowd goes, Aw! and

What?!}

{Go to video with DB}: I really don't know quite where to

start because there are people milling all over the place and

they're trying to get me into this and give a little salute

and say hello to all of you because I'm a little bit stuck in

Los Angeles due to the fact that my wife is on her 34th week

of delivering our second child. [He means she's still

pregnant, but 34 weeks along.] And it's going to be a girl.

And don't ask the name because I'm not going to give out any

of that personal information. And it's funny because we were

just doing this crazy scene back here, we were actually

simulating the sunshine because the light was going down and

we're here in Long Beach and there were about forty pussy

cats--well, there were like ten, I'm exaggerating--but they

were eating the dead body. And Bones and I--Special Agent

Seeley Booth--walked up to the crime scene and noticed these

pussy cats eating this body, so um, I leave you with nothing

more than a great season that's ahead of us. And I wish that I

could be there on the panel because Hart is sweating bullets

right now. If you look at his forehead, you'll see many more

dripping down his forehead and ever so slightly, he'll start

to talk faster and faster and when he starts to go faster and

faster, he'll just start talking faster and faster and he'll

become this kinda manic kind of a guy and become very

hyperactive and he'll become confused and he'll start laughing

and going up and down and he may even fall off the stage and

Emily will just look. And stare. And take it all in. And be

very calm. And peaceful. And if I were there, then I'd

probably be making fart noises or attempting to throw water on

somebody--I don't know--and answering your questions.

Questions that you might have about.. oh, my socks maybe.

That's always a good one. Always go to David's socks. That

always works. I always have socks on. See here? I just wanna

say thanks to fans and people who support the show. Because we

wouldn't be able to do the things that we do without your

support. And I know it's very important and I also wanna thank

Fox for allowing us to come up and talk. I'm just gonna keep

talking while Hart laughs and Emily, you know, just rolls her

eyes and does stuff and maybe she'll just eclipse the

background. I see you, Hart. That's right, Hart. You're

sweating more. Have a glass of water. And, uh, I just wanna

thank you. Thank you for allowing me to come into your lives

and give you a character who is deeply deserving of AN AWARD.

{cheering... he says something I can't hear} So think about

it. I'm very proud of the show. [Very proud of the fans that I

have... And actually, the executive producers of Lefty and

Tony (???) and one of the directors as well,] does is laughing

and he's wanting me to wrap it up with that. Meanwhile,

everyone just wants to go to lunch and I'm just gonna keep

TALKING... You want me to stop bein'? OK. I'll stop. Thank

you. {cheering}

A: Thank you, everybody. That was a long, long speech. Thanks,

Dave, for doing that. Well if you were here last year, you

heard Hart's tease about something special about that season

that Booth and Brennan would hit the sheets and it happened...

sort of... {people boo and some say 'whoo!'} My theory is that

you guys, you're so passionate about these characters and love

them so much that perhaps you {referring to HH} felt obligated

to give them sort of what they wanted...? Explain it.

HH: If I say yes to that, it would make me sound like a nicer

guy, wouldn't it? No. {laughter} It was the {?} to have that

happen. What I should've done is--What I should've--Learned

not to give spoilers. {points to audience} I've learned my

lesson with you people. Don't give spoilers. Oh and I just

have to say one thing: That is what happens when you have

David Boreanaz unedited. {laughter} That's what happens.

ED: He won't stop talking.

HH: He will not stop talking. And fortunately he's very

accurate. He's a terrible tease. I think he's a bad man.

{laughter} But very, very amusing. I will just say, he's very

sorry not to be here today. He loves Comic Con. He loves his

fans. Um, up until this morning, he was trying to find a way

to justify to himself leaving when his wife is so close to

giving birth and him being over two hours away. So he really

is very sorry not to be here today.

ED: You're so Canadian. {about HH's accent} David's not sorry

(sore-ey). He's sorry (saw-ry).

HH: He's sorry {copies ED's pronunciation}.

ED: Also, this is why--David said, "Bullets" (boolets) He said

it the other day {???} Boolets as opposed to {?} bullets. I

just feel the need since he's not here, we poke fun at him.

{people cheer, ED waves and nods at the audience}

A: Let's do a lot of that today.

ED: Let's bash on David Boreanaz.

A: Let's roast David. {roast means to make fun of in Hollywood

terms}

A: Well, you know Hart, you fooled us in TV Guide, too,

because we actually did a cover {holds up the ED/DB photoshoot

mag} of "He's just that into her!" about hook-up acting. So,

tell me about in your head, was it an experiment to see if the

show could work if the two are a couple solving crimes?

HH: I saw the season finale as a love letter, I've said this

before, that this is a love letter to our very, very loyal

fans. The people who have been watching the show from the

beginning. Our loyal fans are the people who have kept us on

the air. We've had lots of schedule changes. We've been all

over the schedule. Preempted many, many times. And this group

on somewhere around 8 million people, God bless you if you're

all in here, {cheering} you've followed us from place to place

to place, everywhere. And I know that the network schedulers

scratch their heads at Bones' success. So the next season

finale, which a few of you emailed me or Twittered me the word

"fail-nale" {people say, Oh!} Oh, I hear it! I hear it. I'm

human.

ED: {???}

HH nods at ED then: {???} Today Emily was trying to make me

feel better by telling me that on the message boards some of

the people said that her jaw was too big.{Oh!} {? I

think I caught that phrase right} A man's jaw{?}.

ED: A man's jaw. Boo. Thank you. I can handle it.

HH: Anyway, the season finale was full of inside jokes and

layers and {???} from the our four seasons and would be {???}

What would it look like, whatit might look like if Booth and

Brennan were a married couple. Also, I think, a lot of the

other characters. We kind of showed what they were like

inside. And if we could kind of go toward those characters in

the upcoming season. So I hope in retrospect the season finale

will become more and more likable to our loyal fans. Although

I think the loyal fans got it. The people who tuned in every

once in a while didn't like it and boy did I hear from it. And

I definitely heard from loyal fans as well that I did not

enchant.

VIDEO 2

ED: I think they are two people that do belong together. I

think they compliment each other in great ways and really have

love for one another. And I would love to see them together,

as--if I can {???}, but I do see that it's dangerous to put

two characters together. It's really tricky. And that's maybe

why he didn't end up with a season finale last year where he

put us together. But it's not really 'put us together' where

we got to see that {?}. It's tricky because we don't want to

lose the sexual tension that's between us. It would be odd if

Booth and Brennan were, like, a married couple. It wouldn't be

terrible, but it would definitely change the show. It's

something to be thought long and hard about {?}. I don't know,

I'd like to see them together, but yeah, maybe REALLY

TOGETHER, towards the end. That's how I feel.

A: Whenever that is.

ED: Whenever that is.

A: Eight years, nine years to go. What was it like stripping

down with David Boreanaz? {crowd woo-hoos}

ED: Woo hoo! {crowd laughs} I think that, you know, it was

never a BAD thing. {laughter} It's not a bad thing to strip

down with David Boreanaz, let me tell you. {laughter} Um, no I

mean, it is awkward because you're working with the person for

four years and you're making out and in bed, so it was

awkward. But at the same time it was very comfortable, David

was very respectful and, you know, it was fairly tame {lmao}.

But, um, yeah.

HH: I have some raw footage. {crowd woo hoos} And we may have

to put it on a DVD some day. {cheering, appplauding} No, you

have the wrong idea. {laughter} Because at points it's

extremely romantic and hot and sexy, but in other points it's

David and Emily like trying to pretend that they're feeling

hot and heavy and sexy. So it's actors going into a place and

coming out of it, going to a place and coming out and it's,

it's--

ED: It's not "going into a place". {laughter}

HH: Oh, she is so bad. She's bad.

ED: You're the one that said it. {ED fakes a Canadian accent

here:}

HH: I said an innocent thing...

ED: I'm sorry (sore-y), I'm sorry (sore-y). {laughter}

HH: {??} The in and out is very amusing and we might put it on

a DVD someday.

A: Are you going to comment on that?

ED: I'm not commenting on what you just said.

Announcer: So what happens now? What we do know is that Booth

--he's in the hospital bed, he's not sure if you're his

regular Brennan or if you're the one in his dream Brennan--

ED: If we're married or if I'm the Brennan that he knew before

-- He wakes up very confused from this coma--I think someone's

phone is ringing.

Announcer: Oh-- It was David. Stop talking about him.

ED: We'll never get out of this place. {laughter} Um, yeah.

He's confused because--Whoever saw the season finale, um,

where Booth says, "Who are you?" meaning, "Who are you, this

woman I just met for the last few days or are you Brennan whom

I know in another life?" I'm losing this, I'm-- {She

interrupts HH} But basically--I'm sorry?--

HH: Which version, which version of the human being is very

confusing.

ED: It gets confusing that they have the same name, for me

who's trying to explain it. So, he's confused and we pick up

six weeks later in the--

HH: Six weeks. Six weeks later.

ED: Are we even allowed to say that?

HH: Yeah, yeah. We can say, six weeks later, is Booth going to

go back to work and is he ready? And how much utter confusion

remains and is it confusion?--are the questions that we'll try

to answer in the season opener. Is he confused or is he

actually reading his heart correctly? Tune in and find out.

ED: {???}

HH: Oh yeah (???).

ED: So, it's six weeks later and Brennan has just kind of

taken off for Guatemala, just kind of avoiding the situation.

And she gets back, or I get back, however you wanna say it, so

basically that's where it starts off. Six weeks after the last

season ended and there may still be some confusion {laughs}.

Announcer: There's also the matter of Booth's frozen sperm

because you wanted to be a mom. Could you do the dancing

phalanges?

ED: Dancing phalanges! {laughter, applause. ED is adorable.}

Announcer: So is she still committed to becoming a mom?

HH looks smug.

ED: Um... {looks to HH} you wanna talk about it?

HH: Don't answer.

Announcer: Oh!

HH: Or lie, or tell the truth. Which ever one you want.

{someone in the audience says, "Aww."}

ED: It's something that probably will be addressed... in the

next season...? {laughter at her misdirect}

Announcer: Early in the season, or, uh...?

HH: We have some other things to get past before Brennan is

back to thinking about having a child. I think it was very

meaningful that the moment Booth was um, reticent about having

a child with Brennan that maybe the hurry was dropped away,

too.

ED: Very telling.

HH: Very telling.

A: I guess...{???} that David insisted that you guys write the

lines about the "28.8 million viable sperm per 3 milliliters

of ejaculate"? Is that David's {edict?}...?

HH: Well, David didn't have the numbers...? {laughter, can't

hera this last word}

ED: Have you read that the members of your audience...?

{can't hear anything here, lots of noise}

HH: You know, David didn't have to answer to that, you know,

Booth has swimmers. He's a sniper, so even if he had ONE

swimmer {laughter}

A: He's going to be directing...

HH: He's terrified I was going to tell people. Yeah, right now

David is scheduled to direct our 100th episode. {cheering}

Things can change, but right now that's our plan, so he's a

very good director.

ED: He is. You know what, I've never seen him so happy-- And it's

very good that he has so much energy when he's doing nothing,

he always has energy, but it's like he has this crazy

passionate energy when he's directing. And, I don't know, I

really like working with him as a director.

HH: I was shocked. I said it before and he got at me, but I

said I meant it as a compliment, is that... I thought, Oh my

God, when he gets into prep... prep for a director is

terrifically hard work, amazing, tons of focus, long, long

hours. Prep is probably harder than the actual shoot for a

director. And I thought, Oh David's gonna be tired {???} not

that much focus, and boy he did a good job. And he did a good

job.

A to ED: Would you...? {This is where he asks her if she wants

to direct. Unfortunately this part of the interview is

missing. }

Video 3:

A: Have you heard David sing?

HH: Yeah, he has.

ED: I don't know, is that in an episode? Oh, yes! He has! That

was kind of awesome, actually. {... but...???} But...

HH: Your singing did do something kind of great for the show.

ED: Yeah, but I don't know if it was THAT that made it happen.

HH: It did, too.

ED: You wanna tell them?

HH: Emily sang, "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". {cheering} It was

actually the last episode before the strike happened, the

writer's strike happened, and, uh, wrote in, wrote in, "Girls

Just Wanna Have Fun". And the--

ED: He wouldn't discuss it with me before the writer's strike

happened when I asked-- He wouldn't even tell me that I was

singing...

HH: Wasn't anything--

ED: This is where I air out all of my dirty laundry!

HH: Anyway, I wrote in "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" thinking

we'd have as much prep time as ever, then the strike happened

and Emily called to say, "This isn't a good song for me, it's

not in my register." And I said, "I can't change it. I cannot

go in today, I'm on strike. I can't go in today to change it."

So Emily had to sing, "Girls Just--" And then, I when I was

like--

ED: Cyndi Lauper has a HUGE range as a singer.

HH: She's AWESOME! {laughter}

ED: I can't, I'm not a professional singer.

HH: It was very charming. Was it not very charming? {cheering}

{ED doesn't seem to have liked her performance, from the look

on her face. Fans, however, loved it.}

HH: That's what Cyndi Lauper saw and got in touch with us and

said she'd like to be on the show, which is awesome. And so

she's in the season opener. She's, uh, {people cheer} she

plays a character called Avalon Harmonie and she's Angela's

psychic. {laughter}

A: So, as a psychic does she see you {Brennan} with a certain

man?

ED: Yeah, she may see me with a certain man.

HH: She is definitely {????}

ED: She is definitely {???} She likes to tell us how things

are gonna be and she may or may not be involved in a case...?

HH: She's involved. She's involved in the case. {he laughs}

ED: I just mentioned...

HH: I told her to say that.

ED: {laughs} Everything is like, "I may or may not, um, have

an episode this season..."

HH: She likes to dive right in and say, "He is either lying or

telling the truth or something we don't know."

ED: No, I was going to say-- that she... Can I just say?

{Whispers to HH, he nods and laughs} She is a psychic and she

leads us to some bodies that are buried, but we have questions

about how she knew where this was and of course Brennan

doesn't believe in psychics and neither does Booth, even. So,

uh, we face whether she was involved in this and there are

some other things that are revealed that don't make us really

think she might be involved in this-- {???}

HH: She's a funny, amazing actor.

ED: She is awesome! She likes saying 'side-winder'(side-

winduh).

A: I got to sit with you and David last year for the circus

episode. {cheering} {ED/HH do a little dance} There were no

animals. And you did a zoo episode. No animals.

ED: There were animals.

A: There were requests about it, though. Tell us about...?

ED: Well, the circus episode had no animals. They were

historically treated very terribly in entertainment that way

and I didn't want to perpetuate that and {crowd cheers} and

then Hart came to me and said that there was a zoo episode and

they couldn't really avoid having the animals, and so we came

to some agreement on some level about having a character who

is opposed to it discussing his concerns about zoos and

animals in captivity and whatnot, so at least we had an

opposing view there. I'm involved in different animal

charities {cheering} and it's been kind of a passion...

HH: Emily is incredibly an activist for animals. She has

definite opinions and she does not have the same opinions that

Brennan does. And Emily does a very wonderful thing in that

she gets that. I mean, she doesn't just understand that, she

GETS that. So we do-- and she's a very good influence, I

think, on our show, but there's stuff where, we know-- and you

{you've been awesome for us on our show?}-- We've come to an

agreement on our show, I think, so far. And she is not shy

about bringing up her opinion in that she's, um,... she is

really not shy. {laughter} And we do the best that we can and

it's a TV show and Emily gets it and Brennan and Emily

Deschanel are really not the same person. So in that case, we

decided, "Hey, let's get Emily's, or at least close to Emily's

opinions in our--"

ED: Our guests.

HH: "Our guests and the interns who are guests." And that

works for us, so.

A: Are there any more animal episodes coming up this season?

HH: Chicken farm. {laughter.}

ED makes a face. HH laughs and points at her.

A: What do you think about that one, Emily?

ED: Well, it's something that we will have to be discussing.

Um, well, I think that it's good that it's exposing some of

the stuff that goes on the farms for chickens. {some cheers}

They're horribly treated animals because there are no laws to

protect them, and I think that it could be a great thing.

{cheering}

Video 4:

HH: Hey, how come you people come in groups? {to the audience}

Can somebody please explain to me how you're not spread evenly

and you come in groups?

ED: I think we should move down here because I feel like I'm

focused over here. {crowd cheers} {Hart gets up and moves to

the other side of the table}

HH: Did you just mean one?

ED: Yeah. Broken toe!

HH: Emily has a broken toe. {audience: Oh! aw!}

{inaudible}

A: What do you feel about, uh-- Jared, do you like working

with Brendan Fehr?

{cheering}

ED: Absolutely! {more cheering} I really liked working with

Brendan and I really like the whole storyline as well. I

thought it was interesting as well that Brennan kind of went

out with A Booth, it's not THE Booth. But he was also the one

that asked me out. Not that Brennan wouldn't ask the other

Booth out himself, but you know, I thought it was kind of an

interesting dynamic. I just liked the way she discovered who

he was and kind of deepened her relationship with Booth, so I

like that storyline and it's interesting. You know, I don't

know if it's kind, we explored that or done...

HH: We're not done with Brendan. We're not done with Jared.

{audience cheers and applauds} He has a great thing going with

Emily. It's an odd thing. It's a certain chemistry there

that's fun and he has a great thing with David. It's kind of

two alpha males going at each other is not bad for our show.

David tends to dominate almost everybody on our show. {women

in the audienece whoo at this} He's very tall and has huge shoulders and and it's a good

thing to bump chests a little bit. And it's a good thing.

ED: Brendan does not, uh, shy away from confrontation--

HH: No. He does not {agreeing}

ED: Any conversation he'll take an opposite point of view.

He's an interesting person to have around.

HH: He's basically a Candian hockey player. {audience laughs,

cheers}

A: We're gonna leave it all up to you guys now and guess what?

Each one of you, well, the first eight or nine of you that ask

a question, get a copy of of {holds up magazine, can't

understand this part} autographed by Emily and Hart. So, get

up and ask a question, come on up and...

Video 5:

{Question is cut where they are asked who is the most

squeamish cast member. Emily says that it's Tamara. Next

question is cut, but the audience member asked if Eric

Millegan will be back. audience cheers}

HH: We love Eric Millegan and we love Zack. In fact, we

probably two of his biggest fans, you and I. {referring to

Emily and himself}

ED: Oh, I'm sure that these people would defend that {title?}.

{cheering} {???...Eric}

HH: Um, yeah. The answer is Yes, we'd love to have Zack back.

{???} the producer answer is that young Eric Millegan has a

full life. He's moving back to New York City, he's gonna be...

to produce on stage, works on Broadway work, he's a buffer{?}.

He's a buffer{?} and a singer. It's his first love. So he has

to be available on the show date when we need him, and we

have to be able to afford on that show to fly him back. So

that's all very dull, but it's, uh, you know-- We can-- We

love him and we'd love to have him back.

A: This is our last question.

{audience: awww}

Q: In the Gravedigger episode, season two, Dr. Brennan wrote

her last good-bye. Are we ever going to find out what she

wrote?

HH: Did you ask me that on Twitter? Be honest.

{laughter}

Q: No.

HH: OK!

{Emily asks a question I can't hear.}

HH: ...when you were buried by the Gravedigger...

ED: Oh.

HH: Um, episode 5, right now... five or six...

ED: I forgot about that 'til now.

{laughter}

HH: Episode five or six of this year is the trial of the

Gravedigger. And, um, {buzz in the audience} and not a lot of

evidence survived if you watched the, um, our last episode--

got blown up.

ED: The Hero in the Hold? Is that what that's called?

HH: Yes. You remember titles.

ED: I remember that, but I didn't remember the note.

HH: I call it The Boat Show. {laughter} So, uh, it's very

likely that what she wrote will surface as evidence on that

case. How's that? {cheering, applause}

ED: We have no more questions, so is that the end of it?

HH: We're getting booted, we're getting booted.

{audience boos...}

ED: Boo! {then laughs along with HH}

A: Unfortunately, we're unable to manufacture more time...

HH: Well, if you're out of time, you're out of time.

A: Well, if you're able... wave to {???} and excuse yourselves {?}.

A: Ladies and gentlemen, please do not rush the stage...

{end video}

you are my hero! Love you!!!!!! Thank you!

Wow Mama thats awesome...thanks

Some very nice lines in there--I really liked the bit about David dominating almost everyone on the show So we know about Gravedigger, why there's a psychic in the 1st epi, though I don't really like that Brennan ran away to Guatemala.

And I am impressed that you got all that down, Mama. I don't even want to think how many times you might have had to rewatch it!

You're welcome.

LOL I just watched it very slowly and had to rewind a lot of parts.

Thanks, Mama! We really appreciate all the work you went to for us.

Thanks!

Thanks. It's great to kind of read through that and get some great quotes. Season five's starting to shape up a little bit.

I'm excited for the coming season... I can't wait for the premiere, the storyline sounds great and I'm curious whether the scripted kiss was shot or not... and I can't wait to see The Bond with the Boot and Plain in the Prodigy and all of it!

Hi there,
I'm new here and I've been looking around for a good Forum for quite some time now, but it seems I've found it.
I just wanted to say 'Thanks Mama' for the great transcript.
Even so I haven't been able to watch all of season 4, especially the seasons ending, because over here in Germany they just started with Season 4 before the summer break, thanks to this forum I got a little impression of what will happen and it was really great to hear/read what will happen in Season 5 thanks to your transcription.

Welcome to the ABY, Clarissa. Glad to have you here with us.

Welcome to the ABY Clarissa!
Herzlich Willkommen, ich bin mir sicher, dass du dich hier bald wie zu Hause fühlen wirst.
Komm uns doch mal im deutschsprachigen Thread besuchen!

Thanks for the transcripts Mama!!!!!

Ditto with the THANK YOU!!!

I'm so excited for season 5!
