Temperance Brennan quotes from Bones

Brennan

What I'm going to do is make a long incision in the fascia to release the pressure inside.

Hodgins

And how--how long is a "long incision?"

Booth

Cause of death?

Brennan

Well, since I can't find a skull, I'd say... his head got cut off.

Booth

We're partners, you know, together all the time, all right? You're a woman, and I'm a man. I never had a relationship like this where we were, like, two guys -- except you're not, you know, a guy.

Brennan

No. No, I'm not. Should I feel odd about wanting to hang out with Will?

Booth

No, of course not. 'Cause essentially you're a guy, like me, but not really.

Brennan

That would mean that to me, you are, essentially, a woman. Yeah, I can see that.

Booth

No, no, no, no. I'd prefer not to be a woman, if you don't mind.

Brennan

I'm merely trying to follow your reasoning, Booth.

Brennan

I can read bones, not people.

Booth

Well, you had no trouble seeing through me.

Brennan

It's a good thing I like being alone.

Booth

You know what, Bones? You're not alone. Okay? Come here.

Brennan

Booth...

Booth

Hey, you're my partner. It's a guy-hug. Take it. [They hug in a very non-guy-hug way.]

Brennan

I wouldn't let anyone else call you a loser, Russ. What makes you think you're allowed?

Russ

I love you, too.

Brennan

I wish you wouldn't keep letting me hug you when I get scared.

Booth

Hey, I get scared and I'll hug you. We'll call it even.

Brennan

I just... I'm just one of those people who doesn't get to be in a family. That's--

Booth

[places his finger underneath her chin, lifting her head up] Listen, Bones, hey. There's more than one kind of family.

Angela

How do you deal with the fear?

Brennan

I have this. [takes out huge gun from her purse]

Angela

Oh, my God! That thing is huge. Whoa, wow, that's like movie huge.

Booth

Where the hell did you get that?

Brennan

The mall.

Booth

[incredulously] The mall?

Brennan

Yeah. It's pretty big, right? Bigger than the one you have. [Angela chuckles]

Booth

Excuse me. It's not the size that matters. It's how you use it.

Brennan

Well, I think size is pretty important.

Booth

The point is that you shouldn't have a gun in the first place.

Angela

If you do have one, bigger is always better.

Booth

You're not helping.

Angela

Right. Yeah, this does seem like a private conversation.

Booth

You know, people see you with that, the next thing you know everyone in this place is gonna start packing.

Brennan

This is America. Get used to it.

Booth

What's that smell?

Brennan

It's mold. It grows in the fat creases of morbidly obese people.

What is this about? Did you bring me here to make fun of me?

Brennan

I merely stated a fact, Mrs. Epps. You need to lose weight. Obesity also causes diabetes, heart damage, liver failure. Not to mention the wear it puts on your joints.

I have a glandular condition. A little compassion and understanding, that's what I really need.

Zack

My doctor said most of my injuries didn't come from the explosion but from being slammed into the floor. [to Booth.] Apparently you're extremely strong.

Brennan

[to Booth.] Did you have to be so rough on him?

Booth

(plaintively) It was a bomb. I was being, you know, heroic.

Booth

[speaking into his phone] Did you say the Everglades? Look, I can't hear anything because of this INSANE MUSIC!

YOU SHOT MY CLOWN!

Booth

[speaking into his phone] Great. Flight number?

[off screen] Hey! Hey! He shot my clown!

Booth

Okay thanks. [turns to Brennan] Okay, we're all set.

Brennan

[still shocked by what just happened] That... was not good.

Dr. Brennan?

Brennan

Agent Sullivan?

Uhuh, name's Eugene.

Brennan

Oh, uh ok Eugene.

Nah, not me. I'm Sully, short for Sullivan.

Brennan

Oh then, who's Eugene?

I thought maybe she'd hooked up.

Brennan

Hooked up? Hooked... up? Oh... with, uh, anyone in particular?

We met so many guys. You know how it is.

I'm guessing she doesn't.
