I'd like to make a toast before we go.
BBooth
No no no, Pops. You do that at the rehearsal dinner, OK?
Just a little one, Shrimp. A private one. I've been waiting for this day ever since I met Tempe.
MMarianne
Then I'm going to sing a song. A little one. Actually, two.
We should hurry. We don't want to be late to the dinner...
MMarianne
[jokingly looks at Max and Hank] You know what? We're getting in trouble for loving them.
Better not to listen. [turns to Booth] You're a lucky man, Shrimp. You found a woman who's willing to stand up to you and call you on your crap.
You can be stubborn and if she's willing to stick around and try to civilize you, then you better listen and make adjustments, 'cause that's love.
[...]
MMarianne
Seeley, what you have here is the final piece of the puzzle. It's what's going to make you whole. Tempe is the woman I always wished I could be and the one that every mother prays that her son will find.
[dramatically] Now I'm gonna cry. How can I do a speech if I'm gonna cry.
It means going to the justice of the peace to get hitched. No fuss, no bother.
BBooth
Pops, forget it. I owe Bones fuss.
MMarianne
Eloping is romantic.
[grins] Chicks dig romantic, Dad!
BBooth
[horrified] What do you mean chicks?!
[Brennan is in Booth's office]
BoothLook, I know what this wedding meant to you...and the flowers, and the dress...
I don't care about any of that. It's you who I'm worried about.
Booth
Me? [comes around from behind his desk to face Brennan] Why me?
The church! I know how important that is to you.
Booth
I didn't ask for that. That was your idea this time around.
Booth
Bones! I would wear elephant tusks on my head and have a squirrel monkey do the wedding ceremony if that's what you wanted.
Booth
[shakes head, smiles] No.
[smiles] And neither do I. As long as you're there. We've waited long enough.
When Hodgins and I were buried alive we each wrote a message to someone we loved in case our bodies were ever found. Hodgins wrote to Angela. [Hodgins and Angela share a smile] And I wrote to you. [She hands her flowers to Angela and takes out a note to read] 'Dear Agent Booth, you are a confusing man, you are irrational, compulsive, superstitious and exasperating. You believe in ghosts and angels, and maybe even Santa Claus. And because of you I've started to see the universe differently. How's it possible to simply look into your fine face gives me so much joy. Why does it make me so happy that every time I try to sneak a peak at you, you're already looking at me. Like you, it makes no sense. And like you, it feels right. If I ever get out of here. I will find a time and place to tell you that you make my life messy and confusing, and unfocused and irrational and wonderful.' This is that time. This is that place. [They stare at each other] Did I do that wrong?
Booth
No.
Booth
Excuse me, we're not done now.
CCreach
[grins] Well now, you wanna take this on? Seriously?
[Booth grins back, amused. Creach tries to brush past Booth but is effortlessly subdued.]
Booth
Oh, ok. Here's the biggest problem with guys that are pumped up on 'roids, huh. They look bigger but they're a lot dumber.
I never asked you, have you ever served on a jury before?
Booth
Oh...uh...no I have not.
Booth
Why? Because, you know, when I tell the defense that I'm FBI, they...they reject me.
Well, why wasn't I rejected? I work for the FBI.
The diner must've employed a more accomplished chef while we were on our honeymoon.
Booth
[looks at her, shakes head] No, Bones. There's no new chef. It's the same chili as always.
I don't understand. You said...
Booth
We're married, Bones. The sun is brighter, the air is [sniffs] crisper, the food tastes better than ever.
Air quality and the sun's thermonuclear core have nothing to do––
Booth
Love, Bones, love. It changes everything. [Brennan looks at him blankly] I mean, don't you feel different now that you're married?
My left hand does. [looks at her wedding band] I'm very aware of the ring but....I'll adapt.
Booth
[mildly sarcastic] Thanks, very big of you.
It's nothing, really, because...I love you. [smiles]
Booth
Right, good answer. [cellphone rings, answers phone] Booth......you found the body in what––?!?!? [gags and spits his stew out]
Booth
I lost my appetite.
[In Booth's car en route to the crime scene]
Booth
Bachelorette party, seriously?
Yes, I told her it was a little late for that. Then she asked me if she was still in my top 10 people.
Booth
Oh boy.
Which she is, even though you don't like her any....
Booth
[uncomfortably] Ah, geez.
[looks at him] Why do you keep uttering non-specific and meaningless exclamations?
Booth
You're saying no to Angela because of me?
Well, I know how you feel and I didn't want to make you feel even more uncomfortable because––
Booth
Look, Bones, Angela is your best friend and obviously I can't come between you two.
Well, if I have to choose––
Booth
You don't have to choose. You can have both. You should have both. Look, you know, let her throw you a bachelorette party 'cause that's what a best friend does. You can't deny her that.
Booth
Yes. I'm positive.
[smiles] Sounds like fun. [pauses] Angela said there would be excessive alcohol consumption and flirting.
Booth
Oh, wow. [at a loss for words]
Booth
Let's just, you know, focus on our work for a while, OK?
[perplexed by Booth's reaction] Sure.
[Booth is helping a drunk Brennan into the house and onto the couch]
Although I did not start the fight, I felt obligated to finish it. You would've been very proud...
Booth
[grins] OK, come on...let's just try to get inside, all right? Just sit down. [helps Brennan through the living room and sits her down on an ottoman] You know how many favours I had to call in so you guys wouldn't get arrested?
[...]
Booth
Did you have fun, or was it all about the fighting?
[still drunk] We danced on the bar.
Booth
Wow.
Does that sound like fun?
Booth
Sounds like a blast.
I told Angela it was your idea that I should go. [Booth raises his eyebrows] She feels bad that she hated you and I told her that you're the best person ever [grabs Booth's jaw and grins at him] even though that can't be confirmed empirically but I don't give a crap. Then I told her some of the things that we did in the bathtub last week.
Booth
No no no no. You didn't say anything about the bathtub, did you?!
You wanna do some of that right now?
Booth
If we did any of that, you would drown. Let's just get some sleep, OK?
Booth
You recognize this?
SSuspect
It's a marinade injector.
Booth
Why do you recognize it?
SSuspect
I designed it. With Howard. Is this what killed him?
Booth
The question is, did you use this to kill Howard?
Booth
You disliked him.
SSuspect
I dislike almost everyone. I dislike you and I don't even know you.
