Bones quotes

Booth

[Applying pressure to a wounded Vincent Nigel-Murray] Open your eyes, Vincent! Stay with me!

Vincent

[pleadingly] I... ple-please don't. Just don't make me go. I-I don't want to go. I love -it's been lovely. Being here with - with you.

Brennan

No! You can stay here as long as you like, Vincent. You're my favorite! Everyone knows that. Right, Booth?

Brennan

You have to keep the pressure on!

Booth

[quietly] No, I don't, Bones.

Booth

[having been woken by Brennan] What's wrong?

Brennan

He kept saying 'don't make me go.'

Booth

What?

Brennan

Vincent. He was looking at me and he was saying 'don't make me leave.' [crying] He said that he loved being there. Why would he think that I'm the one making him leave? What kind of person am I?

Booth

Come here. No, no, no, Bones. You got that all wrong, all right? You got it all wrong.

Brennan

No. I heard him. You did, too. Don't make me leave. That's what he said.

Booth

He wasn't talking to you.

Brennan

I was the only one there. And you. He wasn't -- he wasn't talking to you.

Booth

I think he was talking to God. He didn't want to die.

Brennan

No, Vincent was like me, Booth. He was an athiest.

Booth

Okay. He was talking to the universe, then. He didn't want to go. He wasn't ready, Bones. He wanted to stay.

Brennan

If there was a God then he would have let Vincent stay here with us.

Booth

That's not how it works.

Angela

What is going on? I mean, is this about Vincent?

Brennan

Yes.

Angela

Yeah.

Brennan

And I got into bed with Booth last night. [looks at Angela's dumbfounded expression] Why aren't you saying anything?

Angela

Because I -- I don't wanna yell 'Hallelujah!' so close to losing Vincent!

Brennan

I think I did it because of Vincent.

Angela

Wait. Whoa. What exactly happened after you -- after you crawled into bed with Booth?

Brennan

[pause and thinks for a moment, then gives a happy smile]

Angela

[smiling in anticipation of Brennan's answer]

Hodgins

[walks in the room with speed, bringing information and interrupting before Brennan could say anything] I've got the GC mass spec result back on the bullet that killed Vincent.

Angela

Honey! No! Not right now! I'm sorry, I love you, but go tell Cam! Go! Away!

Hodgins

Uh -- [walks out of the room, stops in the doorway and tries to talk]

Angela

[raising her voice] AWAY!

Wendell

You know, the only perimortem injury that I could find is this fracture to the nasal bone.

Hodgins

Who dies of a broken nose?

Wendell

Exactly. If I can't figure out the cause of death, Dr. Brennan's gonna be tossing me into that machine.

Hodgins

Right.

Wendell

You're supposed to say, "No, she'll understand."

Hodgins

Oh, but she won't.

Wendell

Ah, that is so funny.

Angela

I'm pretty sure any day the Guinness people are gonna come and measure me.

Hodgins

You look beautiful.

Angela

Yeah, for a water buffalo.

Wendell

Watch this. I'm about to Brennanize you.

Hodgins

Brennanize?

Wendell

Transverse fracture to the metacarpal and the right thumb, chondromalacia patellae of the left knee, a notch in the notch of the left ulna --

Hodgins

A notch in the notch?

Wendell

That's correct. With exostosis of the medial surface.

Hodgins

So what is that? Some kind of repetitive stress stuff?

Wendell

Yep, like this. [moves right arm upward repetitively]

Hodgins

Wow.

Wendell

Yeah, I'm thinking some kind of ritualized offering to like the sun, you know?

Hodgins

Yeah, yeah. Like a figure kind of on a high throne, right? Like a Satanic or an Illuminati slave!

Angela

Boys. You're bowling.

Hodgins

What? Okay! You're ready! The hot sauce worked!

Angela

Uh, no, not yet. Just relax.

Wendell

Bowling!

Angela

Bowling, yes.

Hodgins

Well, that would correspond with the high level of polyester in his garment.

Angela

And the fact that he was found in a bowling alley.

Hodgins

All right. So, breathe through your nose.

Angela

Do not tell me what to do.

Hodgins

All right.

Angela

But, but, but coach me like we practiced!

Hodgins

Those are mutually exclusive!

Angela

Don't argue with me!

We are doomed! We only needed two pins and you left them both standing!

Booth

I've still got another ball.

Max

Yeah, right. A seven-ten split.

Brennan

It's highly improbable, statistically approaching the impossible.

Sometimes when you speak it's like you watch PBS on purpose.

Angela

Have I ever told you how wonderful your voice is? It's like hot tea and honey. Any child with a father who has a voice like yours is just --

Hodgins

Have I ever told you how good you smell, and how soft your skin is, and how every time you take my hand I feel your whole life vibrating with mine?

Brennan

They looked so happy.

Booth

Shoot yeah. They had a baby!

Brennan

Their whole lives have changed. You'd think they would be a little more apprehensive.

Booth

Well, you know, having a baby. That's a good thing.

Brennan

You really think that?

Booth

Yeah, it's a great thing. Why? What? Oh, come on, Bones. The baby is fine. He's healthy. They have a healthy baby, all right? They love each other. This is the happiest day of their lives, okay? What?

Brennan

I'm -- I'm pregnant. You're the father. [She watches as Booth smiles, and smiles back]

Booth

[notices Brennan crying while examining a body] Everything okay, Bones?

Brennan

Of course. I'm merely experiencing emotional inconsistencies due to hormones secreted during pregnancy.

Hodgins

Angela used to cry at the ShamWow commercial.

Booth

Maybe the dead bodies are finally getting to you.

Brennan

Of course not.

Booth

Let me get a picture of this one. [takes out his cell phone and starts taking pictures]

Brennan

[still crying] Stop it, Booth!

Booth

Relax, okay? It's just -- you're normal.

Brennan

I'm not normal! I'm extraordinary!

Angela

Is it true that you were crying at the crime scene?

Brennan

Only as a result of increased hormonal output, not at sadness at the victim's death.

Wendell

Probably chorionic gonadotropin.

Brennan

Exactly.

Wendell

Still, I mean, you crying. I would have loved to see that.

Brennan

Why?

Angela

It's sort of like an eclipse. It doesn't happen that often.

Brennan

Booth took a picture of me, but since I have a picture of him cooking an omelet naked he agreed never to show it to anyone.

Wendell

Smart move.

Angela

I'm sorry. Naked? Wow. Okay, listen, I am your best friend, so I think I should take a peek at that.

[walks into Hodgins lab to see him holding his and Angela's son] What is this?

Hodgins

[surprised] Uh, it's a very small, bipedal primate from the Hominidae family.

You both know the rules.

Angela

Yeah, we do, but he doesn't. He missed his dad, so --

He's not allowed in the lab. I don't want to see him here again.

Angela

Your daughter visits.

She's eighteen! She's not going to spitup on the mass spectrometer. [Michael smiles at her] Tell him to stop looking at me like that. [Michael continues to smile] Would you tell him to stop?

Angela

He likes you.

Well, don't let the smile fool you. I'm still very upset. Sweet, baby boy.

Hodgins

That's my boy.

Hodgins

So, I was sifting through the soil at the bottom of the grave and I found fibers coated in linseed oil.

Wendell

You said her clothes had absorbed the oil.

Hodgins

Her clothes are made of polyethylene terephthalate.

Wendell

Can't you just say polyester?

Hodgins

I did.

Brennan

What are these x-rays?

Wendell

The paint had hardened, so I x-rayed each glob to see if there was anything inside.

Hodgins

We didn't want to break it open in case it would destroy evidence.

Brennan

What about 6F3?

Hodgins

It looks like tree sap or resin.

Brennan

Enlarge the image, please.

Wendell

That's not sap.

It looks like chewing gum.

Hodgins

Okay, even if it is, the dye and the polyethylene, the paint would have destroyed the DNA.

Brennan

We don't need DNA, do we Mr. Bray?

Wendell

Of course not. I should have seen that. I'm sorry.

Excuse me, the boss here needs an explanation.

Brennan

Look at the image. There is a clear impression of the tooth in the gum. That's as clear as a fingerprint.

Hodgins

If I freeze the paintball I should be able to extract the gum without compromising the shape.

Brennan

I'll tell Booth.

Wendell

She's having that baby so the next generation will have someone to make them feel dumb.

Hodgins

Seriously.
