Brennan and Booth discussing Jared was cute … Brennan teasing him that she thought he believed in love at first sight. I like that Booth wanted to tell Brennan about his brother.
And when Brennan asked for the bulldozer and a cement truck!
Booth: You really love the heavy machinery.
And her smile!
Brennan: You think your brother’s girlfriend is hinky? Is that slang for pretty or buxom?
Booth: No it’s just slang for iffy.
Brennan: Well, iffy is already slang. I don’t see the need for slang for slang.
Booth: Okay look the point is there was the hinky vibe between me and her. You know I don’t expect you to understand.
Dental records discussion.
Brennan: You used to think that people could find true love.
Booth: I still do okay. But this is Jared. Alright. He only just got sober.
Brennan: But if he’s sober he should be able to find love. I don’t understand the rules.
Booth: Awww there are no rules. There’s just life. Okay … there’s just life.
Then Booth draws his gun again at the house. I love how much he draws his gun latterly to protect Brennan.
Brennan: You ran a background check on Jared’s girlfriend?
Booth: Well yeah. You do things like that for people you care about.
Brennan: Do you do that when I got out with someone?
Booth: Look Bones, you’re the one who says not to jump to conclusions without all the facts.
Brennan: But you always say in matters of the heart -
Booth: Aww the heart is just a muscle see – I’m learning from you. Huh, anyways this whole background check came up hinky.
Brennan: Hinky how?
Booth: Four years ago this woman was an escort. Jared’s gonna be crushed.
Brennan: Why? I’m sure she possesses sophisticated sexual skills and if she’s reformed –
Booth: She’s just reformed. She’s a reformed escort.
Booth: It’s amazing you can even make football sound bad.
Ha ha ha
I loved Booth and Brennan on the football field so much, being a football fan. AND THE TEAM IS THE CARDINALS ... my fave NFL team.
And Booth introducing Brennan has his partner …. *squeeeeee* I love when he does that.
Brennan: Is it possible that someone’s masculinity was threatened and that person killed Dan because he was a homosexual?
Booth: Way to ease into that one Bones, that’s smooth.
But the cardinals are gay! Boooo
Brennan: I found his protective headgear inside.
Booth: That’s a helmet, Bones.
The team laughs.
Booth: Because of blood inside of a football helmet, isn't that right Bones?
Brennan: That's correct.
And then Brennan talked to Angela about Jared’s girlfriend.
Angela: You know it really would have been better if Booth never ran her record.
Brennan: But he said it was my influence. That is was the rational thing to do.
Angela: No sweetie. He’s rationalizing. Which makes what he did irrational because he’s rationalizing that Jared cannot make rational decisions for himself. You do the same thing all the time. Maybe that’s what he learned from you.
Loved the little scene with Booth and Brennan and Sweets having their little lunch at the conference table and discussing the case. Very simple, very real, very sweet.
Brennan: Native Americans believed that homosexuals were of two spirits. Held them in high esteem, so what’s the problem?
Booth: There’s no problem. Why are you looking at me like that? I was a soldier, I mean gay guys they saved my life in battle more than once.
Brennan: So are you saving if a former prostitute saved your life in battle, that would solve the problem with Jared’s girlfriend?
Sweets: What?
Booth: Seriously, you’re going to bring that up in front of Sweets right now?
Brennan: It’s a rational question.
Sweets: I’m sorry, Jared’s involved with a prostitute?
Brennan: Former. Former prostitute.
Booth: Bones?
Brennan: What?
Brennan: When your gut speaks to you, do you think it could be an increase in stomach acid due to anxiety?
Booth: Huh?
Brennan: I feel some anxiety.
Booth: About what?
Brennan: About your sudden abandonment of a belief system. Really - It’s making my stomach upset.
Booth: You know - you are really … just um … crack a window there Bones, I mean just get some air.
Brennan: You told me that my father’s criminal past didn’t matter. That the love between us was real and that was all that mattered. Because I believed you my father and I have a relationship today.
Booth: Okay, I’m glad I could help out.
Brennan: I’m anxious because I can’t see any meaningful difference between my father and your brother’s girlfriend. Can you explain that to me? It’s a question of logic so I’m just going to be quiet now while you work your way through.
Silence.
And then when Brennan wanted to dig up the paving stones, Booth was excited for her for the heavy equipment! Ha ha
And per usual, I loved Booth and Brennan with the suspect … they always compliment each other so well.
And Brennan and Booth at the bar or whatever waiting on Jared and Padme and Brennan doesn’t want to be there for a fight, but Booth and Jared want her there.
Awww. Cute.
Jared about Brennan: This is my brother’s partner slash friend.
LOVE how Jared knew about Padme’s past … and Brennan’s response. And Booth accepting he was wrong. And Jared asking Booth if he’d be his best man.
Booth: Wow. So soon – it’s only been what a month?
Jared: Ow.
Booth: What?
Brennan: Oh
Jared: Oh Temperance kicked me under the table. Pretty sure she was aiming for you.
Booth: Definitely meant for me.
Padme: If that’s true, I like her.
Brennan: I’d like to make a toast.
Jared: What is this?
Booth: It’s her new thing. She’s likes to – she’s really good at making toasts though. Maybe we should get some champagne though.
Brennan: Jared’s an alcoholic.
Jared: No secrets.
Brennan: When Booth and I first met I didn’t believe that such a thing as love existed. I maintained that it was simply brain chemistry, but perhaps Booth is correct. Perhaps love comes first and then creates the reaction. I have no tangible proof but I’m willing to accept Booth’s premise.
Booth: To love.
Jared and Padme: To love.
Brennan: To love.
And Booth kinda whispers to her separately as it fades out.
