Seeley Booth quotes from Bones

Booth

We cheat diplomatic immunity here in DC, we catch a murderer. That's great. They do it in Upper Kamikazestan and our boys end up on a red-hot spit over a slow fire.

Brennan

There's no such place as Kamikazestan.

Brennan

Shouldn't we do something?

Booth

You kidding? Hodgins being abducted by men in black? It's a dream come true.

Angela

Childhood should be all about swings.

Hodgins

Swings?

Angela

Yeah, you know, how high can I go? If I twist the chains, how fast will I spin?

Hodgins

Or if I try and jump off before the swing stops.

Angela

Exactly.

Hodgins

I miss that feeling.

Angela

Yeah. Me, too.

Brennan

I miss organic chemistry class. Those were good times.

Zack

I miss my first microscope.

Booth

Yeah, and I miss normal people. Can we move on?

Brennan

[on the phone to Booth] You might as well let her go, Booth.

Booth

Why?

Zack

She has very nice, symmetrical buttocks.

Booth

[speechless]

Booth

(to Agent Zhang) So, I dragged out one of the top forensic anthropologists across the country on the word of a prostitute?

Brennan

What difference does her profession make?

Booth

I'm backing you up.

Brennan

You're judging.

Booth

I wasn't judging, I had your back.

Brennan

Yeah, your voice was judging.

Sorry Booth, I just couldn't have you blowing my cover.

Booth

Ahhhh...yeah, as they taught us in Quantico Walt, I wasn't about to.

Brennan

Do you know everyone in this town?

Booth

It's human cock-fighting.

Brennan

More like lesser surrogates engaged in battles on behalf of the elite lords who don't have the courage to fight themselves.

Booth

Right, you know what? (snaps his fingers) Come back to me Roxie, huh?

Brennan

Ooo, look at all the sweat!

Brennan

(referring to her shoes) how does anyone actually walk in these things?

Booth

Oh you know them boots they ain't made for walking sweetheart (slaps Brennan's butt)

Brennan

Okay that was completely over the top.

Booth

I don't want anyone knowing we're FBI.

Brennan

That's easy for me, I'm not.

Booth

(referring to Brennan's little show in the gym) That was amazing! What got into you?

Brennan

It's from when I used to watch old movies with my dad--he really liked Clara Bow.

Booth

Bones, Clara Bow was in silent movies.

Brennan

Oh...then I guess that's just how I imagined she'd sound.

Brennan

(coming out in a rather chaste black dress) What do you think?

Booth

(sarcastically) I have enough Bibles, thank you, but try next door.

Brennan

You said I could be a school teacher.

Booth

Not the spinster kind who lives with her sister but, you know, the hot one who makes the boys crazy. Here (hands her a dress) put on the one that I picked out, alright?

Brennan

Okay, but don't be so bossy. (She disappears into the bathroom.)

Booth

We're newly-weds I said. Taking Sin City by storm, ready for action.

Brennan

(from the bathroom) But you know, marriage is such an archaic institution.

Booth

(exhales in frustration) Listen Bones, I know what I'm doing. Okay? I've done this before, just stop arguing.

Brennan

I'm not. It's just, you know, I don't need a piece of paper to prove my commitment.

Booth

Fine. We're engaged.

Brennan

Why would I be okay with engagement?

Booth

Whatever Bones, alright? We're a loosely committed couple of hot high rollers with money to burn. Cause that's what's gonna get us in the door.

Brennan

(comes out of the bathroom in a stunning little black dress) Like this?

Brennan

Oh my God! I completely forgot you can't be here Booth, you're a degenerate gambler.

Booth

Former gambler, okay not degenerate. I've been through the program okay. And you know he's on the move!

Brennan

What if you get a sudden urge to gamble while you're here? It's like sending an alcoholic to a distillery. Do you need to sit down?

Brennan

They call this America's playground?

Booth

We're 15 miles outside of Vegas, Bones. This is America's frying pan.

Booth

You never told me the second reason why you bet on me.

Booth

No, try me.

Brennan

Beginner's luck. I haven't lost anything since I've been here. And I... I figured if I bet on you...

Booth

I couldn't lose.

Brennan

Sounds silly, right?

Booth

Sounds familiar. Thanks.

Brennan

You're welcome.

Brennan

I'm okay with you thanking God for saving me and Hodgins.

Booth

That's not what I thanked Him for. I thanked Him for saving ... all of us. It was all of us, every single one. You take one of us away and you and Hodgins are in that hole forever. (Booth looks at Brennan whose eyes are glistening with tears.) And I'm thankful for that.

Brennan

I knew you wouldn't give up.

Booth

I knew you wouldn't give up.
