"Justice department jet: 2.6 turbine hours round trip at $1,400 an hour. Car rental - over-mileage, out-of-state use penalties: $346. Compensation to one Walter R. Duncan for unauthorized use of his 1968 Caprice station wagon: $500."
Why don't you bill me?
I'll bill your partner instead. You too obviously relish the role of martyr.
Okay. So are we done here? Back to the bozo work investigating huge piles of manure?
You can always quit.
[Mulder looks at Scully; leaves the office, slams door.]
Sir, Agent Mulder has been through a lot.
And you apologize for him a lot. I've noticed that about you.
I'm not apologizing for this. Because of his work, the DOD is shutting down their antenna array in northeastern Nevada. Our participation in this case has saved lives.
I don't see you proving that. The Department of Defense admits no culpability whatsoever. Furthermore, they say the closing of the facility was coincidental.
("yeah, right" tone) Right.
Don't misunderstand me, Agent. I don't care if you and your partner saved a school bus full of doe-eyed urchins on their way to Sunday Bible camp. You no longer investigate X-Files. You are done and the sooner you and Mulder come to recognize that, the better for both of you.
(mutters angrily as she leaves) Big piles of manure.
