TV show quotes
These are good kids we're talking about. Outstanding students. And the details they gave... I doubt they could have made them up.
Let me guess. They told you about a wild beast entering in on a black mass, the drinking of blood, the sacrifice of an infant or a blond virgin.
Yeah. That's right. Excuse me.
Where's she going?
You don't suppose she's a virgin, do you?
I doubt she's even a blond.
I was hoping you could help me solve the mystery of the horny beast.
[Scully and Mulder both reach for the latex gloves]
Go ahead.
No, you go ahead.
No, no, no. Be my guest. I know how much you like snapping on the latex.
Let me drive.
I'm driving.
Scully, it's not what you think.
I didn't see anything anyway.
Will you let me drive!?
I'm driv-- why do you always have to drive? Because you're the guy? Because you're the big macho-man?
No. I was just never sure your little feet could reach the pedals.
Eh, Scully, if I'm not mistaken, we're gonna be taking a left up here... eh, there's an intersection up here, you're gonna wanna... Scully! You're gonna, wanna...! You just... ran a stop sign back there, Scully.
Shut up, Mulder.
Sure, fine, whatever.
Sure, fine, whatever.
About Mulder not telling Scully he was going to follow up a lead with Detective White.
Look, we've been working together for what two years now, we have differing opinions, but I didn't expect you to ditch me.
I didn't ditch you.
Fine, whatever.
(after locking the two girls together in the room. The whole building begins to shake)
What's going on?
Something cosmic
(final report): We are but visitors on this rock, hurdling through time and space 60,000 miles an hour, tethered to a burning sphere by an invisible force in an unfathomable universe. Most of us take that for granted, while refusing to believe these forces have any more effect on us than a butterfly beating its wings halfway around the world. Or the two girls born on the same date, at the same time, in the same place might not find themselves the unfortunate focus of similar unseen forces. Converging like the planets themselves into burning pinpoints of cosmic energy, whose absolute gravity would threaten to swallow and consume everything in its path. Or maybe the answer lies even further from our grasp.
I wouldn't want to disappoint you by not disappointing you.
[about Mulder's encounter with a gargoyle]
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.
What the hell is that?
Looks like the fuselage of a plane.
It's a North American P-51 Mustang.
I just got very turned on.
Conscience is just the voices of the dead trying to save us from our own damnation.
How are you feeling?
Like someone's been inside my stomach redecorating.
