Maybe you're just seeing what you wanted to see.
What makes you think I'd want to see that?
Mulder (final report): We work in the dark. We do what we can to battle the evil that would otherwise destroy us. But if a man's character is fate, this fight is not a choice but a calling. And sometimes the weight of this burden causes us to falter, breaching the fragile fortress of our mind. Allowing the monsters without to turn within, and we are left alone staring into the Abyss. Into the Laughing Face of Madness.
