Do you even own a TV?
Of course! It's in the closet.

[looks at a laughing Brennan] Now what?
Perhaps you could see your dark side if you mooned a mirror. [laughs] Because "moon" is a term that refers to exposing --
I know.
Get it? It's pretty clever, right?
It's clever. I'd laugh, but I'm afraid of driving off the road.
I understand.
Yeah, right? [smiles]
Safety first. I understand. [laughs]
You really had to volunteer us for this, huh?
Yeah! I thought coming out to the woods would be nice, you know? A little fresh air.
Honey, let me explain something to you: there's a human growing inside me. Vegging on the couch and eating pints of mint chocolate chip ice cream is actually all I want to do.
Recent studies show that mothers who gain excess weight during their pregnancy makes their babies more prone to childhood obesity.
Huh, that's interesting. I read a story that says that husbands who suggest their pregnant wives are fat are far more prone to being slugged by them.
Bones, at any time did you think that the chupacabra was real?
[laughs] No.
Then why did you believe that I saw the Yeti in Nepal?
Because what I said you saw was totally rational.
I never saw it. You see, what you did was rationally explain something that never happened.
You never saw the Yeti?
Or did I?
No, you didn't! You did? Are you trying to confuse me?
I might be!
Okay, what is your point?
That things are confusing. Just because you can explain something doesn't mean that it's explainable.
You mean explicable?
Sure, like us. We don't make any sense at all.
[chuckles] Don't be ridiculous. Yetis don't exist.
I was in Nepal. Rangers have a secure training base there. I was doing field exercises, about to rendezvous with my platoon and I saw it. About 30, 35 feet in front of me.
You were in the snow and in unfamiliar terrain, alone. Hallucinations are common.
It was over ten feet tall, it was huge. I looked straight in its eyes, pointed my rifle at it and it ran. This was no hallucination.
Booth, I'm sure you thought––
[cuts Brennan off] Hey, why don't you just trust me here? Why can't you just use that brilliant scientific mind of yours and at least admit the possibility of what I'm saying here is true.
You––you serious?
[resignedly] Just forget it. You know, you talk really good game, Bones, but when it comes down to it you're no different than people who were certain that the sun revolved around the earth.
[protests] That's not true.
Hmm.
Can I see your hands?
RRandy
My hands?
[irritated] Yeah, you know, the things under your arms there. [raises his hands] Your hands?
[toasting] Here's to stupidity and greed. The two elements that keep us employed.
