Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Booth, what is going on?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : I can't do it. Listen, I have to be involved. If I'm the father then... I have to *be* a father.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : You were seeing something in there, what were you seeing?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Stewie. The baby from The Family Guy.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : You saw Stewie in there, in the interrogation room?
Special Agent Seeley Booth : What do you say, about the kid?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Fine, I won't have a baby.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : "Fine." That's it?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : It doesn't matter now, we're going to the hospital.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : It's no big deal, okay.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : No, it is. Booth, you thought you saw Luc Robitaille and then the ghost of a dead friend and now a cartoon baby. Trust me, something is wrong. Trust me.

Special Agent Seeley Booth : Happy.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Sperm.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : [to Sweets] Sperm? Isn't this getting a little weird?
Dr. Lance Sweets : No. Keep going.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Okay. Egg.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I want a baby.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Whoa!
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Horse.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Wait. Whoa. Whoa. Wait a minute.
Dr. Lance Sweets : Yeah. We can stop here.

Angela Montenegro : Then why use Booth at all? Why don't you use Fisher... and his discount sperm?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : No, Booth has a bigger mandible and a more prominent zygomatic than Fisher, as well as a more pronounced ratio between the width of his clavicles and his ilia.
Angela Montenegro : So, it's because Booth is hot?
-
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Tibia. I've decided to have a baby.
[Everyone stares at her. Bones continues working]
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Pichulum.
Dr. Camille Saroyan : Wait. Baby like a small human?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Yes. I know I've had no interest in the past. But neither did you and you seem to find parenthood very fulfilling.
-
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Listen Bones, if I don't make it...
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Booth, you're going to be fine.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : But if I'm not, I want you to have my stuff. You know, for a kid.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Booth...
Special Agent Seeley Booth : I want you to... You're going to be a really good mom.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : You're going to be fine, Booth. I'll be right here.
-
Dr. Jack Hodgins : [after Brennan says she wants a baby] Is there a father?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Well, I'd like to use Booth's sperm.
Dr. Camille Saroyan : Booth. What do you know?
-
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I thought these sessions were meant for you to see how we interact as partners. How does this relate?
Dr. Lance Sweets : You're using Agent Booth to have a child. You don't see how that might relate to your partnership?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : It has nothing to do with our work.
Dr. Lance Sweets : Wow. Okay. Um. Let me just... organize my thoughts.
-
Angela Montenegro : You do know how this is supposed to work, right?... You get naked together, and you devour each other in a passionate frenzy.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Booth would think that would create an emotional bond between us.
Angela Montenegro : ...Of course that's ridiculous.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I knew you would understand.
-
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I'm not a neurologist, Booth, or a surgeon.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : But you're a genius. That's good enough for me... Plus you'll know if they're screwing up.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I'll ask.
-
Angela Montenegro : Listen, you said you wanted to do this alone because feelings are ephemeral. So is life, Brennan. We're here one minute and then we're gone the next. You should know that better than anybody! If you keep living trying to protect yourself, nothing is ever going to touch you.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Sweets said that it's not his job to tell somebody what they're feeling or how they should live their life.
Angela Montenegro : Lucky I'm not a shrink.
-
Dr. Lance Sweets : The point of the exercise is not to explain, but to respond. Okay? Children can do this.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Because it's childish.
Dr. Lance Sweets : Can we just try it, please?
-
Special Agent Seeley Booth : [referring to the body] Looks like a purple Smurf.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Pelvic bone indicates a male.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : Like a rubber, purple, Smurf.
-
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Well I'm not asking for you to be involved. All I want is your sperm.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : [Booth realizes the Tech has heard Bones and starts to laugh] That's a good one. "All I want is your sperm." Never heard that joke before.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : I don't understand.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : [to the Tech] Yeah. Okay. All right. Just close your mouth and point us to the body, okay?
-
Special Agent Seeley Booth : You really liked holding that kid didn't you?
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Yeah. I've been thinking about how exciting it would be to expose my own child to early pattern recognition.
Special Agent Seeley Booth : You know they like singing and uh, when you make funny faces at 'em too.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan : Yeah of course. I-I will make a diverse schedule.
