 Booth is often frustrated by the scientific and highly technical jargon Bones and the other scientists, and sometimes Sweets, tend to use, as shown when he abruptly cuts them off in the middle of a sentence and tells them to "translate" into layman's terms.Although lacking the squints' "book smarts", he compensates with his instincts honed from his experience in the FBI, as shown by the fact that he is able to accurately guess Bones' top three password choices.Although Bones still ridicules the concept of "gut feeling", she and the Jeffersonian team have deferred to his own expertise as a federal agent, especially when connecting the crime with the weapon used.
