S6 E10Tithonus

Want to know what L.H. Rice's birthday is? April 4, 1849. I'm not good at math, but I'm figuring that's a whole lot of candles on the cake.

S6 E11Two Fathers

[A group of men are in a basketball court playing, including Mulder. He makes a basket; stops when Scully enters the gym.]

BPBasketball player

(to Mulder) Hey, Milk, let's play ball. (Mulder waits for Scully to walk closer; player is irritated) Yo, Homestyle, cough up the rock.

[Mulder throws the ball over his shoulder; catches it when thrown back and casually makes a basket.]

Game.

BPBasketball player

(shaking his hand) Oh, no, no. Aw, it don't work like that.

(joining Scully, ignoring the game) Hey, Homegirl, word up.

Mulder it's my distinct impression that you just cheated. And that you're not coming in again today.

Oh, Scully, I got game.

Yeah, you got so much game I'm wondering if you have any work left in you.

No, I'm ready to J-O-B just not on some jagoff shoeshine tip.

(VERY small smile) No "jagoff shoeshine tip"?

(smile) No background checkin' jagoff shoeshine tip.

Well, about your J-O-B, Mulder somebody's been trying very hard to reach you by phone. Somebody who wants you back at the FBI ASAP.

(more serious) About what?

About an X-File.

You looking for work, Agent Spender? 'Cause if you are, I got a whole pile in that middle drawer that I'd love to shove down someone's throat.

I was just writing you a note. I think you know why I'm here.

They found your mother.

She wants to talk to you.

I didn't hear the magic word.

Look, Agent Mulder, I'm not going to get down on my knees here.

Are you asking me, Agent Spender?

My mother's been gone for almost a year. She turns up in a train car where she's been operated on by a group of doctors who were burned alive. I just want the truth.

The truth is out there, Agent Spender. Maybe you should find it for yourself.

CSCassandra Spender

Agent Mulder?

Shh. Shhh. Shhhh.

CSCassandra Spender

Oh, my god. (laughing) Oh, my god, I think I'm going to pee the floor.

(nervous chuckle) Don't... don't do that.

S6 E12One Son

[opening voiceover; about Cigarette Smoking Man and his father, Bill Mulder] Two men, young, idealistic - the fine product of a generation hardened by world war. Two fathers whose paths would converge in a new battle - an invisible war between a silent enemy and a sleeping giant on a scale to dwarf all historical conflicts. A 50-years war, its killing fields lying in wait for the inevitable global holocaust. Theirs was the dawn of Armageddon. And while the world was unaware, unwitting spectators to the hurly-burly of the decades-long struggle between heaven and earth there were those who prepared for the end; who measured the size and power of the enemy, and faced the choices: stand and fight, or bow to the will of a fearsome enemy. Or to surrender - to yield and collaborate. To save themselves and stay their enemy's hand. Men who believed that victory was the absence of defeat and survival the ultimate ideology... No matter what the sacrifice.

There must be some kind of mistake. I signed up for the aroma therapy treatment.

[frustrated] They've burned our clothes.

Hey... I heard gray is the new black.

Mulder, this stinks, and not just because I think that woman is a... well, I think you know what I think that woman is.

[dryly] No. Actually, you hide your feelings very well.

[Agent Spender and AD Kersh study evidence of the Syndicate's death]

AKAD Kersh

The way these people died... the loss of life here - it is beyond words. I can't imagine how it must be for you - losing your mother.

Yes, sir. But that's not why I asked for this meeting.

AKAD Kersh

Why did you ask for it?

Because I'm responsible for the deaths of those people at the Air Base hangar in no small way. I certainly didn't prevent them.

AKAD Kersh

I can assume then you can explain how they died? Because I have yet to hear any explanation.

Agent Mulder can explain it. I think Agent Scully, to an extent. They might have even prevented what you see in those photos.

AKAD Kersh

Agents Scully and Mulder have been suspended by the FBI.

Also my doing... and my mistake.

AKAD Kersh

I would ask...

I'd ask, sir - before you tell me that it's not my business - that you do everything you can to get them back on the X-Files. Far worse can happen... and it will.

AKAD Kersh

Where are you going?

To pack up my office.

AKAD Kersh

Agent Spender... [Spender leaves; Kersh turns to Mulder, angrily] You have answers now? Why didn't I hear about those answers before?

I've had answers for years.

AKAD Kersh

Then why didn't we hear about them?

No one would ever listen.

AKAD Kersh

Who burned those people?

They burned themselves. With a choice made long ago by a conspiracy of men who thought they could sleep with the enemy. Only to awaken another enemy.

AKAD Kersh

What the hell does that mean?

It means the future is here, and all bets are off.

AKAD Kersh

Agent Scully, make some sense.

Sir, I wouldn't bet against him.

[Cigarette Smoking Man sits in the X-Files office looking at picture of himself and Bill Mulder; Spender enters.]

Get out of here.

This picture you have - I haven't seen it since you were born. You probably don't even know who the other man is.

I don't care. Get out.

It's Bill Mulder, Fox Mulder's father. Isn't that something. He was a good man... a friend of mine... who betrayed me in the end.

I know more than enough about your past... enough to hate you.

Your mother was right. I came here hoping otherwise. [takes out gun] Hoping that my son... might live to honor me... ...like Bill Mulder's son. [fires, then leaves the office]

S6 E13Agua Mala

DGDeputy Greer

Oh, no. You're going to kill me.

(annoyed) No, I'm not, but I'd like to.

(holds up badge) Deputy...

DGDeputy Greer

(surprised) The FBI? For real?

(smiles tightly; nods) I'll be in the car.

(in nature documentary narrator voice) If the sea is where life began - where our ancestors first walked ashore - then who's to say what new life may be developing in its uncharted depths.

You know what? Maybe you are a member of the Manson family. (he smiles)

Sir, it's important that we evacuate the area. We're FBI agents and we need to get to where we're going.

RBRoad block deputy

(sighing) Don't all the nuts roll downhill to Florida.

(annoyed) I'd be happy to show you my ID-

(talking over her; rolls up window) Thank you very much, sir. I appreciate the concern. (pissed off; turns the car and drives quickly)

Mulder.

I was just one "howdy do" over the line.

You know, Scully, someday we're going to look back on this and we're going to laugh. We'll just think of it as, uh... you know man pitted against the forces of nature. Think of it as a test of our mettle.

I don't need my mettle tested.

You don't know this man, mister...?

Uh, Suarez. Walter Suarez. (shines light at looter) Uh, no. He's not with you?

LLooter

(looks at Mulder awkwardly) I'll put it back.

Yeah. Everything in your pockets, too.
