Tom Colton: No, of course not. But you do work with Spooky Mulder.

Scully: Mulder's ideas may be a bit out there but he is a great agent.



Mulder: So why didn't they ask me?

Scully: They're friends of mine from the academy, I'm sure they just felt more comfortable talking to me.

Mulder: Why would I make them so uncomfortable?

Scully: It probably has to do with your reputation.

Mulder: (laughing) Reputation? I have a reputation?

Scully: Mulder, look. Colton plays by the book and you don't. They feel your methods, your theories are . . .

Mulder: Spooky? Do you think I'm spooky?



Colton: So Mulder, what do you think? Does this look like the work of little green men?

Mulder: Grey.

Colton: Excuse me?

Mulder: Grey. You said green men. The reticulant skin tone is actually grey. They're notorious for there extraction of terrestrial human livers. Due to iron depletion in the Reticulan galaxy.

Colton: You can't be serious?

Mulder: Do you have any idea what liver and onions go for in Reticulan?



Mulder: You wouldn't shoot an unarmed man would 'ya copper?



Scully: Mulder, you are jeopardizing my stakeout.

Mulder: Seeds?



Mulder: I have a reputation?

Scully: That's why Blevins has you hidden away down here.

Mulder: You're down here, too.

Mulder: And maybe I run into so many people, who are hostile, just because they can't open their minds to the possibilties, that sometimes the need to mess with their heads, outweighs the millstone of humiliation.

Scully: It seemed like you were acting a little territorial. I don't know--forget it.

Mulder: (plays with her necklace) Of course I was.



Mulder: In our investigations, you may not always agree with me but at least you respect the journey. And if you wanna continue working with them, I won't hold it against you.

(Mulder starts up the stairs and after a brief pause, Scully follows)

Scully: I don't know, you must have something more than your polygraph interpretation to backup this bizarre theory and I have to see what it is.



Mulder: What's the matter, Colton, you worried I'm gonna solve your case?



Scully: Apartment 2 0 3. He killed the guy above him.

Mulder: Maybe his neighbour played the Victrola too loud.



Scully: Genetics might explain the patterns. It also might explain the sociopath attitudes and behaviors. It begins with one family member who raises an offspring who raises the next child . . .

Mulder: So what this, the anti-Waltons?



Mulder: (Talking about the microfiche machine) You have any dramamine on you by any chance 'cause, these things make me seasick.



Scully:: Oh my God, Mulder . . . it smells like . . . I think it's bile.

Mulder: Is there any way I can quickly get it off my finger without betraying my cool exterior?



Scully: Is this what it takes to climb the ladder, Colton?

Colton: All the way to the top.

Scully: Then I can't wait until you fall off and land on your ass.


Mulder: You alright? (Scully is leaning against the wall, breathing heavily. She manages a nod of the head) He's not gonna get his quota this year.
