Portrayed by Jonathan Adams

Dr. Saroyan had a romantic relationship with Booth prior to her joining the Jeffersonian. This relationship was briefly rekindled until Dr. Saroyan almost died after being poisoned by serial killer Howard Epps in the episode "The Man in the Cell" and Booth realized that his "high risk" life put anyone close to him in danger.

While he is seemingly annoyed at Booth, Sweets stands his ground against him, even coercing Booth and Brennan into going on a double date with him and his girlfriend April. Sweets and April break up shortly after the date, and Booth and Brennan become something of a "crying shoulder" in a reciprocal relationship. He has the ability to effectively talk to both Booth and Brennan in the language appropriate to each. Also, Sweets is trained as a profiler and has to date assisted Booth and Bones, finding even dull lab-work new and exciting. As part of the third season's ongoing storyline concerning the serial killers collectively known as The Gormogon, Sweets helps Booth and Brennan identify possible victims and profile the Gormogon.His only fault is his tendency to use innapropriate langauge for someone of his age and skills in court similar to valspeak.
