Bones: Cinderella in the Cardboard
September 8th 2009 02:11
A body is found smashed so hard into a piece of cardboard that it is unable to be removed from it for examining. Both the remains and the cardboard are sent to the Jeffersonian, where the Squints discover the victim had her toes surgically shortened so her feet would fit into her wedding sandals. Booth and Bones argue about monogamy and investigate a wedding dress shop, of course being mistaken for a happy couple interested in a buy. While they’re there, they spot Daisy trying on dresses and giggling with a man not Sweets. Bones thinks they should tell Sweets, Booth thinks it’s none of their business. Wendell borrows a piece of machinery from Egyptology without asking, prompting the Egyptology department to borrow something from Bones without asking. Hodgins and Angela both join a "Date or Hate" dating services, which matches them up with each other. Bones finally understands while jealousy can be a problem.
Bones: Love is a chemical process which causes delusion. An intellectually rigorous person would never get married!
Booth: Never say never.
Bones: That's a paradox, makes no sense.
Dr. Marcus Scheer: Am I still needed here? Because if you two are having relationship issues, I can ...
Bones: We're not a couple.
Booth: No, we just work together. That's all.
~*~*~
Booth: Marriage has been around since the beginning of time.
Bones: Women from Amazonian tribes express their love by spitting on their partners' faces. I hope we've progressed passed that.
Booth: Okay well you know what, sometimes love trumps logic.
~*~*~
Booth: Look Bones, you can't go around tellin' everybody what's on your mind even though it's the truth, okay? Look, what if you and I were going out, right? And you were, y'know, taking forever to get ready and you came out in this dress and, I told you I didn't like it, what are you gonna do?
Bones: I'd reevaluate, change, or ignore you.
Booth: *sarcastically* Of course you would, Bones. Good answer
~*~*~
Bones: You know, intellectually, I know that jealousy is absurd. But I see that it's real for people. I even experience it myself.
Booth: So uh, who you jealous of?
Bones: Angela, Hodgins, Cam, you. Because you all want to lose yourself in another person. You believe that love is transcendent and eternal. I want to believe that too.
Booth: Hey, you will. I promise. Someday, you will. You will, some day. Okay?
Bones: Okay.
