We're scientists. We can't quantify or rely on our emotions. They're arbitrary and indeterminate.
SSaroyan
We know people through our feelings, Dr. Brennan. You trust Booth because of how you feel.
No, I trust Booth because of past actions.
SSaroyan
And faith in the future. I'm sorry, but feelings are important. Even to you.

(freaking-out on seeing a python emerge from the intestines of a dead woman during an examination) Somebody kill that thing!
BDr. Brennan
(wide-eyed,on her cellphone to Hodgins) You can come back to the lab. We discovered the warm place where the python was hiding. (Finn pulls the python from the corpse, and holds it up to his face.)

(to Cam) Oh, I got to say, Ma'am, this is the best damn job, ever.
[Saroyan enters the Ookey Room for a update from Dr. Hodgins.]
SSaroyan
You found something, Dr. Hodgins?
Ho-ho, yeah! I did a microscopic analysis of the victim's stomach contents. Did you have any suspicions about what I might find?
SSaroyan
I knew it was meat, but there were so many additives-
-Delicious additives: curry paste, sea salt, red pepper, red poblano chili
SSaroyan
I got the "Poblano Chili", where is this leading, 'cause you seem very excited?-
-Capers and tarragon; which I would never think to combine-
SSaroyan
-Dr. Hodgins, this is not "Top Chef".
Well it-it sorta is, because, what we have here... is an expertly-prepared burger.
SSaroyan
And this has meaning, why?
Because who-ever made it was masking the meat, which came from Rattus norvegicus.
Yeah! Richard Bartlett's last meal... was a rat burger.
