S2 E4Sleepless

Reassigning them to other areas seems to have only strengthened their determination. Scully's a problem. A much larger problem than you described.

Every problem has a solution.

S2 E5Duane Barry

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.

S2 E6Ascension

I found this. (He shows a cross) It's something I... I never considered about her. If she was... if she was such a skeptic, why did she wear that?

I gave it to her on her fifteenth birthday.

Don't you want to keep it?

When you find her, give it to her.

[holding up a cigarette butt] I found this in Agent Krycek's car. He doesn't smoke. Agent Krycek was the last person with Duane Barry before he died. He was also the last person to see the tram operator before he disappeared. When I got to the top of Skyland Mountain, I saw an unmarked helicopter working the area. I believe that Agent Krycek gave away the whereabouts of Duane Barry and Agent Scully to whoever he's working with.

And who is that?

I don't know, the military? Some covert organization within the government? Whoever it is that man who smokes those cigarettes works for.

Why?

Because Agent Scully got too close to whatever it is they're trying to deny. Because she had hard and damning evidence, that metallic implant in her possession. Or because her termination would prevent further involvement with me and my work.

Who are these people who can just murder with impunity and we can't do anything about it?

Let it go, Agent Mulder.

Like hell.

There's nothing you can do.

What can you do about it?

There's only one thing I can do, Agent Mulder. As of right now, I'm reopening the X-Files. That's what they fear the most.

You wasted a trip, Mister Mulder. There's nothing the Senator can do for you now.

What?

Not without committing political suicide.

Why? Do they have something on him?

They have something on everyone, Mr. Mulder. The question is when they'll use it.

I need his help.

No one can help you now. Your channels of appeal and recourse are closed.

Your predecessor could have helped me.

...

Oh. You know, don't you? You know what's happened to her.

This reaches beyond any of us, Mr. Mulder. Even my predecessor.

I want an answer!

..Why kill Duane Barry if there was nothing to hide?

You mean the government?

There are no answers for you, Mr. Mulder. They only have one policy... Deny everything.

S2 E73

BDr. Browning

An old coroner's trick.

I can make a quarter appear from behind your ear.
