Rational Scully

"Come on! You're saying that time just disappeared? Time can't disappear! It's a universal invariant!" ~Scully (Pilot)

"You're SERIOUS!?!" ~Scully (Pilot)

"What I find fantastic is the notion that there are answers beyond the realm of science.  The answers are there, you just have to know where to look." ~Scully (Pilot)

"Mulder, you could have shown that kid a picture of a flying hamburger and he would have told you that's exactly what he saw..." ~Scully (Deep Throat)

"Mulder, it's science fiction!" ~Scully (Young at Heart)

"Those are the most paranoid people I have ever met. I don't know how you could think that what they say is remotely plausible." ~Scully (E.B.E.)

"Those lights the driver saw may have been swamp gas...It's a natural phenomenon in which phosphane and methane rising from decaying organic matter ignite, creating globes of blue flame." ~Scully (E.B.E.)

""I want a dyoxino pump, 1 milli gram IV, hang a heporin drip at 1000 units per hour and get him 2 units of fresh frozen plasma now" ~Scully (Endgame)

"A healer's greatest magic lies in the patient's willingness to believe. Imagine a miracle, and you're half way there." ~Scully (Miracle Man)

"Well, you're right about one thing...It's definitely not Big Foot." ~Sculy (Darkness Falls)

"Sometimes looking for the extreme possibility makes you blind to the probable explanation in front of you..." ~Scully (Born Again)

"Evidence is worthless if you're dead."~Scully (Little Green Men)

"Based on this preliminary data, I have come to the following hypothesis..." ~Scully (Firewalker)

"Mulder, the fundamental building block of every organism known to man is carbon. From the smallest bacterium to the largest redwood tree." ~Scully (Firewalker)

"Mulder, mushrooms aren't medication. They taste good on hamburgers, but they don't raise the dead." ~Scully (Excelsis Dei)

"Mulder, voodoo only works by instilling fear among its believers. You saw the way Bauvais tried to intimidate me. The power of suggestion is considerable, I'll admit...But this is no more magic than a pair of fuzzy dice." ~Scully (Fresh Bones)

"...I hope you're not thinking this has anything to do with government conspiracies or UFO's." ~Scully (D.P.O.)

"Scorpions predigest their food outside of their body by regurgitating onto their prey but...I don't know too many scorpions who surf the internet." ~Scully (2Shy)

"From a dry skin sample you're concluding what? That he's some kind of fat-sucking vampire?" ~Scully (2Shy)

"Oh, so now you're psychic?" ~Scully (Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose)

"Yes, it looks like a fat little white Nazi stormtrooper, but that only proves my point." ~Scully (Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose)

"I hate to say this Mulder, but I think you just ran out of credibility." ~Scully (Oubliette)

"Mulder, this is even hokier than the one they aired on the Fox network. You can't even see what they're operating on!" ~Scully (Nisei)

"a serial killer makes us believe that he's guilty in turn diverting the suspision from the real estate lady, well he had me going" ~Scully (Pusher2)

"He has an advanced temperal lobe tuma" ~Scully (Pusher2)

"So you think Belack's inocent, that the victim wasn't even murdered at all, that he was devoured by a mythalogical jaguar spirit." ~Scully (Avatar)

"Whatever extreme cases I have encountered, I have always viewed through the lens of science." ~Scully (Avatar)

"Like most kids, I was facinated by the idea. And the theory that during the glacial thaw 10,000 years ago, lakes were formed as land levels rose, trapping certain marine species. Some becoming extinct, but others adapting over the centuries to the desalinizing water...But then I grew up and became a scientist." ~Scully (Quagmire)

"They're fictional creatures, Mulder. Folktales born out of some collective fear of the unknown." ~Scully (Quagmire)

"Nothing happens in contradiction to nature, just in contradiction to what we know of it" ~Scully (Herrenvolk)

"Mulder, not everything is a labyrinth of dark conspiracy. And not everybody is...is plotting to deceive, inveigle and obfuscate." ~Scully (Teliko)

"Well, if it's that simple, why don't you put out an APB for someone riding a broom and wearing a tall black hat?" ~Scully (Sanguinarium)

"It makes perfect sense, Mulder. Admit it, you fell for it. Your Fortean event turned out to be nothing more than the oldest story in the world- 2 men, 1 woman, trouble." ~Scully (El Mundo Gira)

"You're not suggesting that a headless body kicked its way out of a locked morgue freezer, are you?" ~Scully (Leonard Betts)

"Why do I think Darwin is rolling in his grave?" (Leonard Betts)

"Your contact, which is interesting in the context of science fiction, was, at least in my memory, recounting a poorly veiled synopsis of an episode of Rocky and Bullwinkle." ~Scully (Never Again)

"I don't know what happened to me. I have no clear recollection and I don't believe that these abductions are even abductions." ~Scully (Memento Mori)

"Mulder, why can't you just go for the simple answer? With that blow to the head, the deputy might just as well identified McGruff the Crime Dog as his attacker!" ~Scully (Small Potatoes)

"I came here today, 4 years later, to report on the illegitimacy of Agent Mulder's work. That it is my scientific opinion that he became, over the course of these years, a victim. A victim of his own false hopes, and of his belief in the biggest of lies." ~Scully (Gethsemane)

"I have proof. Against the men behind this. Of the lies that I believed. What I have here is proof undeniable that the men who gave me this disease were also behind the hoax, a plot designed to lead to Agent Mulder's demise and to my own, planned and executed by someone in this room. What I have here is scientific evidence." ~Scully (Redux I)

"Mothmen?? Really??" ~Scully (Detour)

"There has to be a scientific explanation for this..." ~Scully (Detour)

"Is there anything you don't believe in Mulder?" ~Scully (Post-Modern Prometheus)

"Sir, unless you want your scientific achievements to end up as a footnote on the Jerry Springer Show, I suggest that you make the time." ~Scully (Post-Modern Prometheus)

"I don't think it's witchcraft Mulder, or sorcery. I had a look around and I don't see any evidence of anything that warrants that kind of suspicion." ~Scully (Chinga)

"Mulder, it's not just me. Nobody in their right mind will ever believe that story." ~Scully (Bad Blood)

"Mulder, yes there is a scientific basis for what happened to me. I was exposed to a virus but as it turns out, Mulder, that virus is not what you thought. Look, I can't identify it, Mulder. I have run three separate tests- but I can tell you without a doubt that that virus' DNA and proteins are very much of this world...It attacks and destroys human cells but that is all it does Mulder. It creates nothing. Look, I don't like telling you this and I know that you don't want to hear it. Not that you can't question me and what I saw but what you can't question is the science. " ~Scully (The Beginning)

"Listen, Mulder, you told me that my science kept you honest. That it made you question your assumptions. That by it, I'd made you a whole person. If I change now... It wouldn't be right... or honest." ~Scully (The Beginning)

"Mulder, I'd just wanted to remind you that by not informing local PD we are in technical violation of state laws prohibiting contamination of a crime scene. (Mulder wanders off) Why do I bother?" ~Scully (The Beginning)

"So, Mulder, this supposed clandestine source who's contacted you. How do we know he's not just another crackpot who's encyclopedic knowledge of extraterrestrial life isn't derived exclusively from watching reruns of Star Trek?" ~Scully (Dreamland I)

"All right. I'm afraid...but it's an irrational fear." ~Scully (How the Ghosts Stole Christmas)

"I don't believe what you're saying! Mulder, I don't believe a word of it." ~Scully (How the Ghosts Stole Christmas)

"but something from Jules Vern they are not" ~ Scully (Agua Mala)

"Mulder if that were true this wouldn't be visable would it?" ~Scully (Agua Mala)
