David Boreanaz: Seeley Booth

The Hole in the Heart

Seeley Booth

Vincent Nigel-Murray: [Booth is applying pressure to Vincent's wound] I... ple-please, don't. Just don't make me go. I-I don't want to go. I love -it's been lovely... being here with - with you.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: No! You can stay here as long as you like, Vincent. You're my favorite intern, everyone knows that, right, Booth?
[Booth takes his hands of Vincent]
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: You have to keep the pressure on!
Special Agent Seeley Booth: [realises that Vincent has died] No, I don't, Bones.

Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Vincent - he was looking at me and he was saying "Don't make me leave." He said that he - he loved being there. Why would he think that I'm the one making him leave? What kind of person am I?
Special Agent Seeley Booth: No. Come here. No. No. No. No, Bones. You got that all *wrong*. You got it wrong.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: No. I-I heard him. You heard it too. "Don't make me leave." That's what he said.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: He wasn't talking to you.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: I was the only one there - and you. He wasn't - he wasn't talking to you.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: He was talking to God. He didn't want to die.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: No, Vincent was like me, Booth. He was an atheist.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Okay then, he was talking to the universe then. He didn't want to go. He wasn't ready, Bones. He wanted to stay.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Well, if there was a god, he would have let Vincent stay here with us.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: That's not how it works.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: Can you just-?
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Yeah.
[Booth hugs Bones]
Special Agent Seeley Booth: That's why I'm here. I'm right here. I know it's hard.

Dr. Camille Saroyan: He meant to kill you.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: I'm the one who gave Vincent the phone. Told him to pick it up.
Dr. Lance Sweets: You didn't know. I mean, there's no use...
Special Agent Seeley Booth: I don't blame myself, Sweets. I blame the guy who pulled the trigger.
Dr. Lance Sweets: Okay.
Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan: You still have blood on your hands.
Angela Montenegro: Booth, she - she means literally.

Special Agent Genny Shaw: The kid in the lab, was he a friend of yours?
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Yes, he was.
Special Agent Genny Shaw: I'm sorry for your loss.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Well, you know what, don't be sorry. Just help me get revenge.

Special Agent Seeley Booth: How are you feeling?
Angela Montenegro: Oh boy. Like an overstuffed turkey shoved into an overhead bin on an overcrowded flight. How about you?
Special Agent Seeley Booth: Me? Like I'm chasing a ghost.
[Starts to leave]
Angela Montenegro: Just make sure it's not your own.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: [Booth stops] I'm sorry?
Angela Montenegro: I-I just meant - be careful.

Special Agent Seeley Booth: He wants to kill. I don't. You know what? I'll do what I have to do.
Dr. Lance Sweets: I hope so. Because with you gone, you know, we're next.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: What?
Dr. Lance Sweets: Anybody on your team is against his team, so...
Special Agent Seeley Booth: I should have shot him in the back when I had the chance.
Dr. Lance Sweets: Professionally, I disagree. Personally, not so much.

Special Agent Seeley Booth: Oh, you threatening me?
Jacob Broadsky: Self-defense, Seeley. Sometimes that means a very aggressive offense.
Special Agent Seeley Booth: You forget who you're dealing with?
Jacob Broadsky: Not for a moment. And don't you forget, you never see the bullet that takes you down.
