Seeley Booth quotes from Bones

Brennan

Why didn't you just tell him about Kennedy?

Booth

Well, you know, I needed to give you time to find me. You know, I've been tortured worse.

Booth

The telescope is pointed up at the planet Pluto.

Hodgins

Pluto's no longer a planet. It was demoted.

Brennan

Did you ever get drunk together?

What?

Booth

What my partner is trying to ask is if you two were buddies. Did you go out and have drinks and exchange confidences?

Brennan

Yes, that's what I asked.

Brennan

Maybe it wasn't a U.F.O. that Cal saw.

Booth

Ah.

Brennan

He could've seen something else.

Booth

Yeah, like a death beam or a space baby.

Booth

So we're going with the theory that this was once human?

I've never read about an alien encounter in which the aliens wore loafers.

Booth

How much do you want to bet Hodgins has?

Booth

Speaking of marriage, Hodgins is gonna propose to Angela tonight.

Brennan

Huh.

Booth

What?

Brennan

I guess right now it looks to me like marriage is having someone who will slap your enemies and then toss their dead bodies out of airplanes.

Booth

Try not to mention that to Angela.

Brennan

I believe that dopamine and norepinephrine simulate euphoria because of certain biological triggers like scent, symmetrical features...

Booth

Symmetrical features.

Brennan

Yes, it's an indication of a good breeder. You appear to be a very good breeder.

Booth

[walks onto the platform] Ok, squint squad, why does she look like a glow stick?

Hodgins

[rhetorically] Why does everyone think my job is so easy?

[looks at the body] Wow, you weren't kidding. Twirl her around, we can pretend we're at a rave. What's the good word, Hodgins?

Hodgins

[protests] Hey! I am not a party trick!

Brennan

Dad, what are you doing here?

Max

Well, I heard you were getting married.

Brennan

What? No! Angela's getting married to Hodgins, not me.

Max

Oh...uh, the bug guy... oh that's great! [Booth starts to handcuff him]

Booth

[to Max] Will you shut up, please! [catches Brennan looking at him, awkwardly to her] Uh, long enough for me to Mirandize him.

Max

[sarcastically] You got the right to remain silent....got it! [to Brennan] We'll talk more later.

Booth

[apologetically] Look, I'm sorry, Bones, but he killed the Deputy Director of the FBI. I'm just doing my job.

Zack

Have you been to Iraq?

Booth

That's classified information and you aren't cleared for that.

Zack

Does it hurt to get shot?

Booth

[in disbelief] What??

Zack

I've been blown up. That wasn't as bad as I expected. But I've never been shot.

Zack

Booth, is there any sense in ducking when someone shoots at you?

Booth

Your body ducks whether you want to or not. [Zack nods] Why?

Zack

[hands Booth an envelope] You can read this later then explain it to everyone.

Booth

Why me?

Zack

You know more about duty and honor than anyone else I know.

Brennan

How did this skull get here?

Booth

Ask our eyewitness. [runs off] Let's go, buddy. [brings a teenage boy over to Brennan]

I am not high.

Brennan

Neither am I. Why is he telling me that?

Usually when you get all blustery, it's cause you think something's your fault.

Booth

Yeah, well, you know, I did arrest her father for murder. She could be having trouble with that.

Exposing a parent to the death penalty can have a chilling effect on a partnership.

Booth

There's only one place that uses the pink rock in its foundations. It's an old deserted bank on the Anacostia River.

Bingo, baby.

Brennan

Why "bingo, baby"?

Booth

I checked into the ownership of the place.

Brennan

Why "bingo, baby"?

Booth

Angela and Hodgins are fine, Zack is back, Cam is locked in. What I need to know, Bones, is are we solid? Because, you and me, Bones, we're the center.

Brennan

And the center must hold. [They shake hands. Booth chuckles.] What?

Booth

I thought you were gonna kiss my hand again.

Brennan

I didn't kiss your hand. You put it over my cup.

Booth

Felt like you kissed it.

Brennan

Did not.

Booth

Did too.

Brennan

Did not.

Booth

Did.

[to Booth] You arrested the Deputy Director of the Secret Service for voyeurism?

Booth

Yeah, Bones in her office?

That is awesome.
