Dr. Lance Sweets : Like, totally.
[Caroline gives him a look]
Dr. Lance Sweets : Most definitely. Um, in his own way, Max Keenan is a very impressive man.

Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I'm fine.
Dr. Lance Sweets : If you were fine, you'd be balled up in a corner, weeping or semi-catatonic.

Special Agent Seeley Booth : I'm sorry, Bones, but I'm going to have to agree with Sweets on this one.
Dr. Lance Sweets : I think it's important for you to know that *we* know that the colder more objective you appear on the outside, the more pain you feel on the inside.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I'm fine!
Dr. Lance Sweets : No, you're not!
