Booth stared at the note and dropped it on his desk. He looked up and saw Hacker standing at his door.
"Agent Booth. I know that you want to find Temperance but maybe you should go home and let us try and find her." Hacker spoke gently. He didn't want to anger him further following the row Booth had just had.
"Yeah, and let you take the glory for finding her. She's my wife and I'm finding her." Booth spoke with some bitterness in his voice. He never really liked Hacker since he tried to get Brennan a few years ago. He even went as far to try and claim her when Brennan was 2 months pregnant with Katy, but Booth put his foot in and nearly lost his job as a result.
"Booth you're not in the right state of mind to do this."
"What fucking state of mind would that be?"
"You're distressed."
"Yeah, because some bastard who can't get over the fact that she doesn't want him. He's got her and my baby. My baby girl. My daughter. And he is going to kill them both." Booth raise his voice.
"You need to calm down."
"No you've done nothing but try and go after the woman that I love for years. You can't seem to get it into your skull that Bones doesn't want you. You know what stuff you. If you don't want me here then I'll go." Booth stood up and walked off with the note. A couple of minutes later he barged into Sweets' office.
"Sweets, do me a favor and fax these over to Angela so she can deceiver the handwriting and scan the photos to see if we can get a location." Booth said giving Sweets the note and the photos and ran back out.

Booth stormed into the kitchen and found Parker sitting at the table looking extremely pissed off.
"Don't start on me Parker. I've had enough people having a go at me today." Booth said looking at the expression on his son's face.
"Maybe they should." Parker murmured under his breath taking a sip of his juice.
"I didn't raise you to talk under your breath, Parker so speak up."
"I said maybe they should." he spoke louder this time. "You've been acting like a jerk when everyone just wants to help you." Parker raised his eyes in surprise having realised what he had just called his father.
"I've been acting like a what!" Booth yelled a little at him.
"A jerk Dad. Angela was just trying to help you and you just told her to go away!" Parker stood up and raised his voice a little.
"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?" Booth shouted at him "YOU'VE NEVER TALKED TO ME LIKE THIS!"
"BECAUSE DAD I'M TIRED OF BEING IGNORED! THAT'S ALL YOU'VE DONE SINCE BONES WENT! AND I'M YOUR KID DAD! YOU NEED TO REMEMBER THAT I'M JUST AS IMPORTANT AS A GIRLFRIEND!" Parker knew he had touched a nerve with Booth. He made Booth sound like he didn't care about him and accidently degraded Brennan. He could see his father's eyes go black in shock and anger. From upstairs they could hear Katy crying and Hank coming down the stairs.
"Will you two stop shouting. I've just got her to sleep." Hank said sternly to the pair of them.
"Parker just go to your room. Now." Booth said emotionlessly. Katy was still crying and Parker scowled his way upstairs and Hank went to see to the crying baby. Booth looked around in the cupboards. He needed a drink. And he needed one now.
