S7 E11Closure

Mulder, where'd you go?

End of the road. (Goes to Harold) He's OK, it's OK.

HHarold

My son! You...you saw my son?

He's dead, they're all dead, Harold. Your son, Amber Lynn, my sister.

HHarold

No!

Harold, you see so much, but you refuse to see him. You refuse to let him go. But you have to let him go now Harold, he's protected, he's in a better place, they're all in a better place, we both have to let go, Harold.

HHarold

You're wrong. I'm gonna find him...I don't believe you!

Mulder, what happened? Are you sure you're all right?

I'm fine. I'm free.

S7 E12X-Cops

LCLA County Sheriff's Deputy Keith Wetzel

[Riding along with COPS cameraman] I don't know what it is about a full moon - It's just, something about it. People just go off the wall. I mean these are some pretty scary neighborhoods to begin with - I haven't been on the job that long myself, but, I've seen more than my fair share of crazy stuff. When the moon is full - It's just, like, times ten... I don't know, uh.. I don't know - Maybe it's the tides of something.. But irregardless - we're on the job, and if that makes people breathe a little easier knowing we're out there, or, be a little less nervous walking the streets at night, well, that's a good feeling.

[Computer beeps, receiving info about call - Wetzel types in and checks]

Ok, we got a report of somebody lurking around the neighborhood making noise.. Actually, I take that back (looks at monitor) - We got a report of a.. "monster".. lurking around the neighborhood? Wha-? (turns to camera) ..Hey, it's a full moon.

Deputy, can you describe for me what you saw?

Um - Well, I mean it was pretty dark, you know.. I-I didn't really see.. I don't know wha-, I don't know.

Well you must have seen something in order to run away from it, huh? You were responding to the same call we were - Of a monster prowling the neighborhood.

[camera moves to Sergeant Duthie - Scully, behind her, hides behind the ambulance door whenever camera is pointed towards her and Duthie]

SPSergeant Paula Duthie

We've been to this house before - The lady has a history of medication - You know what I mean?

Yeah, maybe - But she's not the only one seeing monsters. There's been half a dozen such sightings in this area in the past 60 days. Were you aware of that? (looks at Wetzel and Duthie)

(shrugs) ..No.

(speaking to Wetzel after he is attacked) I'm sorry, but you're going to have to be isolated and kept under guard.

SPSergeant Paula Duthie

With all due respect, what the *bleep* are you talking about?

I'm talking about preventing this man from becoming a danger to himself and to others.

SPSergeant Paula Duthie

..Can I see your badge again?

(smiling sweetly) Agent Mulder? Can we have a word a second?

Yeah. Excuse me..

[Mulder and Scully walk a bit away, camera crew surreptitiously follows]

..Yeah, what is it?

"What is it"? Mulder, have you noticed that we're on television?

I don't think it's live television, Scully. She just said *bleep*.

But it's a camera, and it's recording - [notices camera crew, walks further away with Mulder] It's recording everything you are saying, do you understand that? I just wanna make sure you're clear on that.

Sure, I'm clear on that Scully.

My point being, Mulder, is that we're on a case.

[camera again sneaks closer]

This presents an opportunity - I feel we're very close here. The possibility of capturing concrete proof of the paranormal; a werewolf, in front of a national audience, even an international audience - What's not to love?

Well - [notices camera and walks away with Mulder again] Look, Mulder, you want to talk about werewolves to me you can knock yourself out. I may not agree with you but at least I'm not going to hold it against you but this.. Mulder, this could ruin your career.

(chuckling) What career? ..Scully, I appreciate it - You don't want me looking foolish. I do. I appreciate that.

I don't want me looking foolish, Mulder.

[COPS crew rides with Mulder and Scully]

I'd have to say that at, uh, this point in the investigation, I'm-I'm usually more secure in-in what it is we are actually investigating, but.. we've had so many conflicting eyewitness reports that it's-it's hard to ascertain exactly what it is we're looking for... But the crimes we are investigating are-are paranormal. Uh, I can say that - With absolute conviction. Um.. and-and the nature of these crimes - they're-they're notoriously difficult to quantify on any rigorous scientific level, as Agent Scully will tell you.

Ohh yeah.

Yeah, which-which in its own way is-is a kind of a validation, if you think about it in and of itself. Uh, but, you know, that-that's our job - That's why they pay us the big bucks.

CSCoroner's Assistant

Well, we got murder victims stacked three-deep in the freezer. Plus you got this camera crew reporting everything. Why?

(to the camera, smiling pleasantly) Because the FBI has nothing to hide.

S7 E15En Ami

S7 E16Chimera

[on the phone] Mulder.

Mulder, please tell me I can go home.

Oh, hey, Scully. How's the stakeout?

Well, the furnace broke and I can just about see my breath in here.

Ouch. I'm sorry to hear that.

That... and I've witnessed a couple hundred things I'd like to erase from my brain. Eww. But as of yet, no mystery woman.

Well, she'll come, you know? It's just a matter of time. She'll show up - I'm sure of that.

Yeah, well not before I die of malnutrition.

Hey, Scully, tough it out. Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Right? [to Ellen, who is putting some dishes on his plate] No, no, no, no. No capers, thank you.

I'm sorry. What?

I said, "What a... what a crazy caper." I'll talk to you later... and, uh, keep warm. Bye.

[on the phone] Mulder.

Mulder, when you find me dead, my desiccated corpse propped up staring lifelessly through the telescope at drunken frat boys peeing and vomiting into the gutter just know that my last thoughts were of you and how I'd like to kill you.

S7 E17all things

[voice over] Time passes in moments ... moments which, rushing past define the path of a life just as surely as they lead towards its end. How rarely do we stop to examine that path, to see the reasons why all things happen, to consider whether the path we take in life is our own making or simply one into which we drift with eyes closed. But what if we could stop, pause to take stock of each precious moment before it passes? Might we then see the endless forks in the road that have shaped a life? And, seeing those choices, choose another path?

But that was merely prelude of what was to come. Three years later, in 1994 even more complex formations occurred simultaneously on opposite ends of the English countryside with the Mandelbrot Set, were it still there, at its center. Then, in 1997, even more complex formations occurred... [Scully is completely engrossed in her salad; doesn't listen to him at all. Mulder pauses] ... and I'm not wearing any pants right now.

S7 E18Brand X

SGSecurity Guard

Do you have an appointment?

[Skinner and Mulder flash their badges.]

SGSecurity Guard

(rudely) Do you have an appointment?

[They look at each other, surprised, and flash their badges again.]

(insistent) Maybe you missed this the first time around.

Dr. Voss, can you enlighten us as to what Dr. Scobie intended to tell the grand jury? We know it had to do with company research.

[The Lead Counsel, a large lawyerly looking man sitting next to Voss interrupts as Voss is about to answer]

LCLead Counsel

I'm sorry. Dr. Voss would be in violation of his employment confidentiality clause in answering that question.

Dr. Scobie was your friend?

PVDr. Peter Voss

Yeah, for 14 years, mm-hmm.

And yet you demoted him five weeks ago. You took him off a particular project. Can you tell us why that happened?

LCLead Counsel

[interrupting] As before, Dr. Voss would be in violation of his confidentiality clause in answering questions regarding the nature of his work here at Morley. I'm sure you understand our cooperation cannot extend itself to revealing corporate secrets.

[getting pissed] Yeah, I'm not sensing any "cooperation" whatsoever. In fact, I'm one more non-answer away from getting a federal warrant and searching this entire building.

LCLead Counsel

Then this meeting is over. Dr. Voss. [The lawyers all begin to get up from the table. Mulder pulls an evidence bag from his pocket]

Dr. Voss... can you tell me what that is? [He tosses the bag to Voss. Inside is the dead beetle from Jim Scobie's glass]

PVDr. Peter Voss

It's a tobacco beetle. Why?

We found it at Jim Scobie's house.

PVDr. Peter Voss

Well, you'll find a lot of these around here. They're everywhere. There's probably a dozen in the grill of your car right now.

LCLead Counsel

May I ask where you're going with this, Agent?

[sarcastically] I'm sorry, I can't. Answering that question would violate FBI confidentiality due to the sensitive nature of our investigation.
