“Duane Barry” · Season 2, Episode 5

In this episode: Fox Mulder (3), Dana Scully (3), Alex Krycek (1)

Mulder, it's me. I just had something incredibly strange happen. This piece of metal that they took out of Duane Barry, it has some kind of code on it. I ran it through a scanner, and some kind of serial number came up. What the hell is this thing, Mulder? It's almost as if... it's almost as if somebody was using it to catalogue him... Mulder! I need your help! Mulder! [shouts] Mulder!

LKLucy Kazdin

You really believe in this stuff, Agent Mulder?

Is that a problem?

LKLucy Kazdin

We're here to save lives. You'll begin negotiations immediately. Every three hours, we'll reevaluate your progress and let our tactical commander advise and update on the use of force.

..If this man is an abductee, I need to know more about him, his personal history. Each abduction case is different.

LKLucy Kazdin

That material's not been made available to us.

And nobody's thought to call the hospital for records?

LKLucy Kazdin

Look, Agent Mulder. The guy's a psycho. Your object is to keep him on the phone. The longer you do, the more chance he's not going to kill anybody. We stop to do a Freudian analysis, next thing we know, we've got four dead hostages. So whatever crap you got to make up about space men or UFOs, just keep him on the phone.

DBDuane Barry

They're, uh... they're talking to Duane Barry. But they don't speak. He can hear what they're saying. They can... read his mind.

That's right. Abductees call it mindscan. It's a kind of telepathy.

DBDuane Barry

I'm telling 'em I don't want to go... but they never listen. They know what I'm saying. But they just... go right on about their business.

[He stands up slowly and points to Hakkie]

DBDuane Barry

Tell him what their business is. Tell him.

They take you aboard the ship to perform the tests.

DBDuane Barry

They... drilled my teeth. They drill holes in my damn teeth!

Where's Mulder?

He traded himself for one of the hostages.

What?

He's in with Duane Barry.

You've got to get him out of there.

Well, they're working on it.

No, you've got to get him out of there now or he's going to be killed!

How can you be sure?

Because Duane Barry is not what Mulder thinks he is.

You okay, Mulder?

..Yeah.

Whatever you're feeling, you did the right thing.

It's just that, uh.. I believe him.

Sometimes when you want to believe so badly, you end up... looking too hard.

LKLucy Kazdin

I actually called you down here for another reason, Agent Mulder. Uh... in the x-rays, the surgeon found several pieces of metal - In his gums, in his sinus cavity, and one in the abdomen. I had them checked, I felt you'd want to know... and there were tiny drill holes in his left and right rear molars. A dentist who examined them said they could not have been done with any of the current equipment in use.. not without chipping or damaging the tooth. Anyway, I thought you ought to know.
