Quotes
-
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : You know what? I'm going to ask you to go back to your bilious socks and your ostentatious ties, and your provocative belt buckles.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : What, you're saying that if I wear flashy socks, I'm going to forgive Hodgins?
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : [chuckling] Oh Lord, I'm not sure I'm that good. Well, perhaps I am... hmm.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Oh, hey, Doc, Doc, Doc, um... W-why is it that the, uh, the belt buckle is provocative?
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : Oh, it's a modern day codpiece. It forces the eye to the groin.
-
Dr. Jack Hodgins : I figure, a guy like you, I resign, that puts things right between us. Do we need to discuss it past that?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : What are we, girls?
[to the person behind the counter]
Special Agent Seeley Booth : A piece of pie for my friend.
-
Caroline Julian : I already got no proof how the victim got hold of that heroin. Now you're saying I can't put Hodgins on the stand? Why?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : You don't wanna know the answer to that.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Why doesn't she wanna know?
Caroline Julian : As the prosecutor in this case, I'm obliged to share everything I know with the defense.
Dr. Jack Hodgins : Just because Clarissa Bancroft and I...
Caroline Julian : Whoa! Goodnight!
-
Special Agent Seeley Booth : [speaking of prosecutor and defense] Oh, they were married.
[squints look at Booth]
Special Agent Seeley Booth : They have a daughter, second year at M.I.T.
Dr. Jack Hodgins : Does anyone else see the irony here?
-
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I slept with Sully last night.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : I thought you already...
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : No. Last night.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Yeah, well, it's really none of my business.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Except that we're partners.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Yeah, there's that.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : And you told me about your socks.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Yeah, sex, socks, they're pretty much the same word.
-
Special Agent Seeley Booth : You just don't get it.
Special Agent Tim Sullivan : What? I'm asking for guy advice. You are a guy. What's not to get?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : First of all, guys, they don't ask for advice. And secondly, I am not gonna help you get my partner into bed.
Special Agent Tim Sullivan : Why not? It's not like you want her.
[Booth doesn't answer but looks decidedly uncomfortable]
Special Agent Tim Sullivan : Unless... do you want her?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Nah. Come on, Bones is, you know, she's my partner.
Special Agent Tim Sullivan : Ohh, that's why you need psychiatric treatment - because you have the hots for your partner!
-
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Good job, Hodgins.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : No, not 'good job, Hodgins'! He might've blown the whole case!
Dr. Jack Hodgins : I told him it is *not* a problem.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : What happened?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Look, I don't care what he does on his time off. But when he screws around with evidence to get in the pants of an old girlfriend on one of *my* murder cases, that's a *problem!*
-
Special Agent Seeley Booth : One of the Squints - Hodgins - decided the rules, they didn't apply to him. He got entitled and jeopardized my murder case.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : Ah, and you confronted him physically.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Physical confrontation - that's my main skill.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : "Entitled," you said. Is he a wealthy man?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Yeah, like the guy who got killed.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : The murder victim... who tried to help a child and then died for it? And your... uh... Squint?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Yeah, Squint.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : Extraordinary. Your Squint tried to help a friend. So they both endeavored to do good.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : With no clue of the way things are.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : The way things are, as defined by a working class lad from Pittsburgh.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : That's right. Pittsburgh, where I'm from, all right? From the streets. Where you get a sense of how the world really is.
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : Yes, I'm sure that's true. But has it occurred to you that without the distortion of reality provided by a privileged upbringing, there'd be no such thing as the Sistine Chapel, the Taj Mahal, the Three Rivers Stadium, home of your beloved Steelers?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : The Three Rivers Stadium was demolished in 2000. But it was a great place, though, that Lambert...
Dr. Gordon Wyatt : No doubt. The point is, you rebel in your way, your friend rebels in his. We all of us have to overcome our upbringing, rich and poor alike.

Dr. Temperance Brennan : Wow- those socks! Those are amazing.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : That's right. The socks, the tie, the belt buckle- all escape valves from my socioeconomic rage.
Dr. Temperance Brennan : I hate psychology.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Oh, you know, they help meal with the day to day irritations of dealing with people that are more privileged.
Dr. Temperance Brennan : I slept with Sully last night.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Oh, I thought you already, uh...
Dr. Temperance Brennan : No. Last night.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Oh. It's really none of my business.
Dr. Temperance Brennan : Except, we're partners.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Yeah, there's that.
Dr. Temperance Brennan : And you told me about your socks.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Sex, socks- pretty much the same word.
Dr. Temperance Brennan : Do we have a case or are you just visiting?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Yeah! It's messy. Better get some protection.
Dr. Temperance Brennan : Let me get my gum boots.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : [to himself] Yeah. I'm gonna need a flashier tie.
