| DOGGETT: You know something you're not telling me. Mulder
knows something. How long can you hide from it? Knowle Rohrer -- this
old military buddy of mine he told me your pregnancy
was a result of a government cloning
experiment to try and create what he called the "super soldier." |
| SCULLY: Well, his blood
alcohol level was upwards of 2.5%.
He was drunk, he... crashed and drowned. |
| SKINNER: This EPA guy
that you checked out of the county morgue
in Maryland -- without any jurisdiction -- oh, come on. All your friends,
John. All your former buddies at the FBI ... |
SCULLY (to REYES): ... Water. Asphyxiation
induced by the inhalation of
water. There are contusions
on the
forehead and on the chest
but the impact isn't what killed him. This man drowned.
You're looking at me like you hope that there's something more but
there isn't. |
SCULLY: There is something.
REYES: What?
SCULLY: Right here on the
ankle.
REYES: Are those .. fingerprints?
SCULLY: Yeah, that's what they look like. from someone holding him
down? |
| FOLLMER: I don't know if you're aware of where Agent
Scully is. She's at Quantico. Called in by John Doggett to autopsy
a body he's got no authority to touch. |
| SCULLY: Third floor, they have a cooler for the teaching
cadavers. You might temporarily
put him up there. |
DOGGETT: Just keep an eye out. What's chloramine?
SKINNER: What? Why are you asking me about chloramine?
DOGGETT: Because this is McFarland's desk and he's got tons of files
on chloramine in it. (one file
reads: CHLORAMINE BASE T-4)
I'm betting it figures in to all this somehow.

DOGGETT: What the hell are you doing here now?
McMAHON: Your
lungs were full of water. |
SCULLY: All right, then, why?
McMAHON: To prime a population to breed a generation of super soldiers.
SCULLY: By adding something to our water?
McMAHON: Something which promotes the mutation
of offspring in fertilization,
in pregnancy.
SCULLY: What you're saying is absurd.
McMAHON: Is it? No more absurd than I am. I am a first-generation
prototype. Now they're seven stages advanced in the science which
created me. To the point where now they've successfully given birth
to a super soldier from a mutated
egg.
SCULLY: How can we trust any of this? Or you? What you say you are?
McMAHON: We all have a standard mutation.
|
| REYES: She drowned
that man from the EPA. She's drowned
two men. She says they're part of the program. |
DOGGETT: You saw that thing on her
neck. You said you saw it before.
I think we're on to something here, Monica. It's freaky. It's mind-blowing.
You got to admit that. Come on. |
DOGGETT: What? What'd you find?
SCULLY: Nothing. Nothing more than a small deformity
of the
spine. Physically, she's seems absolutely
normal. As normal as you or I. |
| FOLLMER: Paranoia
must go with the job. You're starting to sound just like Fox Mulder,
Mr. Doggett. |
DOGGETT: Agent Scully, we got to go! We got to go! Now!
SCULLY: But they're manipulating ova
-- females eggs for transplantation.

| SCULLY: Sorry to disappoint you, but this is a course
in forensic pathology.
|
SCULLY: Well, there's also evidence
of fingerprint bruising
along his collarbone. |
| SCULLY: The snakes appear to be purely symbolic. They're
a non-venomous species collected
locally. They were sewn postmortem
into the body cavity with household thread by someone who appears
to have surgical skill. |
DR. SAMPSON: Dr. Richman was committed here because
he killed three patients. He had sewn strychnine
tablets into their
stomach lining in surgery.
When I heard about the snakes... |
SCULLY: It appears he was shot in the chest.
His body was staged postmortem,
just like the others ... |
| DOGGETT: Which you take as proof the devil possessed
the surgeon and somehow put him
in contact with Kobold. |
SCULLY: The syringes
contain
Droperidol. That's the same
anti-psychotic medication
that she was giving to Dr. Richman. |
REYES: What if it's ectoplasm?
DOGGETT: Ectoplasm?
REYES: You've heard of it, Agent Scully?
SCULLY: Agent Mulder used to refer to it as "psychic
plasma" a residual byproduct
of telepathic communication.
In theory, it would have inorganic properties
that couldn't be explained otherwise. |
| Hellbound 9X04

Top |
| SCULLY: Well, from what I could see from my visual exam
the skin was removed with considerable
skill by someone using a hunting-type knife. Arteries
and veins were left intact so as to prolong
the period that the victim would suffer. |
ED KELSO: You
eyeballing me? You got some kind of problem
or something? |
FBI CADET: Here you go, Dr. Scully. Everything you ever
wanted to know about skinning people but were afraid to ask. This
is every case of removal of the human dermis
I could find within the last dozen years.
SCULLY: Most of these are postmortem skinnings. |
| VAN ALLEN: Somebody cut 'em. Might want to watch your
step. We got some blood on the floor.
Not as much as you'd expect. |
SCULLY: Yes, there are cuts in the bone
... on the
tibias and on the shoulder girdles
that matched the cutting pattern that I found on Victor Potts ...
using the exact same knife which left a signature pattern of grooves.

SCULLY: Monica, I'm so sorry. Agent Doggett's just coming
out of surgery. They're moving
him to the ICU.
FOLLMER: How's it look?
SCULLY: If he pulls through this ... it's likely that he'll be paralyzed
for life. |
| SKINNER: Scully will call if he regains consciousness. |
REYES (reading): "1995: Patient at the State Psychiatric
Hospital at
Gaithersburg. Diagnosed with
a delusional disorder anger subtype,
which presented itself shortly after the suicide death of this father. |
REYES: How is he?
SCULLY: Fully conscious.
We set up a communication device designed for spinal
injury victims. Speaking with him should be much easier. |
LUKESH: Agent Reyes, right? What's the matter? Cat got
your
tongue? |
SKINNER: Agent Doggett. Yeah, he's regained consciousness.
He's very chatty. Among other things, he says that you’re a
murderer. That you enjoy killing women with a straight razor and cutting
out their
tongues. |
MRS. LUKESH (pointing to the gun): Why is that in my
house? I opened the drawer and it gave me a
heart attack. I don't know how I
even picked it up without it going off and killing me. I was so scared. |
LUKESH (desperate): Shut up. Shut up. But you know what?
This time I get to bleed you slow.

| Lord of the Flies 9X06
|
Top |
DOGGETT: Well, something killed this kid.
SCULLY: Well, judging from the amount of insect feces
in the
ear and nasal
cavities it appears that they fed at such a furious rate that it caused
the boy's
skull to collapse from the inside.
His helmet protected his head during the there is no impact trauma
here whatsoever. None. |
| ROCKY BRONZINO: The musca vetustissima walker. The Australian
Bush Fly. It craves protein so
much it will actually crawl into your open nose, mouth, ears even
your eyes to feed on nutritious blood
and moisture. Though the New Zealand screw-worm fly often kills its
victims in mere moments by burrowing into an open wound
or cut. |
SCULLY: These flies you mentioned--neither of them are
indigenous to North America. Are you suggesting that we've got a virulent
foreign vector here?
ROCKY BRONZINO: No. The specimens you collected are your garden-variety
calliphorid. Harmless as, well... flies. |
REYES: What did you find?
SCULLY: Well, it's what the entomologist Rocky Bronzino found. The
flies that ate at the brain and
skull of the victim are all female.
Every last one of them. |
| SCULLY: Well, something biological
is going on. Whether it's hormonal
or chemical something has caused these bugs to attack. |
DOGGETT: The paramedics arrived and treated him for
an aggressive attack of body lice.
SCULLY: Hmm. Lice are not altogether
uncommon in a school environment. |
| REYES: We were looking for pheromones.
Aren't there pheromones produced
in adolescent sweat? |
ROCKY BRONZINO: I've got a reading here that's going
right off the scale.
Holy toledo! We've got pheromones
coming out the ying-yang here.
C-13 calliphorene and how. |
ROCKY BRONZINO: I think my electroantennogram just...
tilted.
REYES: What's C-13 calliphorone?
SCULLY: Insect pheromone. |
| ROCKY BRONZINO: A boy ... is secreting bug pheromones?
That's impossible. Preposterous. |
SCULLY: Okay, so this boy's going through puberty,
right? I mean, maybe his body chemistry is somehow just going crazy
and it's his raging teenage hormones
that are attracting all these insects.
REYES: What if it's more than chemistry and hormones?
More than biology? |
ROCKY BRONZINO: I'd like to think of it as a hymenopteran
relationship. Two scientists using their special knowledge reaching
higher than either of them could ever reach alone. And if I may say
so, Doctor, you complete me.

amnesia.

SCULLY: Files on what?
DOGGETT: These bioengineered
soldiers we've all come in contact with -- so- called "super
soldiers." The same ones threatening Mulder's life forcing him
to live underground. |
| SCULLY (to CLASS): I'm sorry about that. I believe that
last class we were covering petechia
and evidence of death by... |
DOGGETT: Nowhere. It shouldn't make a bit of sense,
but it does. I went to run the DNA
on the clothes he gave you only the man's DNA
can't be tested. They say it's some kind of weird DNA
complex with iron or some damn thing.
|
| Underneath
9X09 |
Top |
REYES: It says here the DNA
evidence proves he's innocent.
DOGGETT: It's wrong. It's some lab mistake. It's as simple as that.
My partner Duke and I, we catch this 9-1-1. Neighbor's hearing screaming
coming from this house on Flatbush Avenue. We get there. Teenage girl,
mother, father-- all dead. There's blood
... I can still remember the sound of the blood
squishing under my shoes. This guy Fassl's just standing there. |
SCULLY: I have combed through every detail
of this ME's report. I have read and re-read it. And I am sorry, Agent
Doggett but the DNA fingerprinting
does indeed exonerate this man.
DOGGETT: You're telling me there's no way? There's not even a million-to-one
chance that these DNA tests are wrong? |
DOGGETT: There's got to be something here the prosecution
overlooked-- I overlooked-- something I can hang this guy with DNA
or no.
SCULLY: Well, speaking of DNA ...
DOGGETT: Awww, come on ...
SCULLY: The re-tests of the typing confirm the original results--that
the hair samples do indeed belong to someone other than Robert Fassl.
|
SCULLY: Well, John, there is something else. It's something
that explains why thirteen years ago the science of the day identified
the hair as Fassl's. I spoke to the forensic examiner who ran the
tests and he found a match in 12 of the 13 key genes.
DOGGETT: What does that mean?
SCULLY: It means that the mitochondrial
DNA in the hair sample is genetically
similar to Fassl's. In fact, it is remarkably similar. It is so similar
that it must be from a blood relative.
|
| BRIAN HUTCHINSON: The murderer was caught on a security
camera once he turned the corner. This is a videograph, a pretty clear
one. You can see the blood on his
hands. |
DAMON KAYLOR: The DNA
re-tests. I understand you received the results this morning. Mr.
Fassl has been exonerated. Again.
DOGGETT: The results aren't that simple. The DNA
is similar to Fassl's to a degree we haven't quite made sense of yet.
|
REYES: I think we can prove it. DNA
evidence in the Sing Sing murder was gathered and filed by the prison
authorities. All we have to do is compare it to the DNA
from the 1989 murders.
SCULLY: No. Unfortunately, that's not going to work. The 1989 evidence
has to be thrown out.
DOGGETT: What are you talking about?
SCULLY: The hair samples logged to your crime scene, Agent Doggett
... were not there on the day the crimes were committed.
DOGGETT: Are you accusing me? Are you accusing me of planting evidence?
SCULLY: I am simply stating the facts, okay? The DNA
evidence that was used to convict Bob Fassl ... was planted. |
DOGGETT: Trail ends here.
REYES: Blood. |

you get him to a hospital. This man is losing blood
fast. |
REYES: What are they?
SCULLY: Rubbings. Taken from the surface structure of a craft.
DOGGETT: A craft?
SCULLY: A spacecraft, Agent Doggett, if you can wrap your
brain around that. |

female shooter as he tried to halt her vehicle. Agent Doggett remains
in a coma under close watch at St.
Mary's Hospital. |
SKINNER: Have you talked to the doctors yet?
REYES: They say the good news is that there's no swelling of the
brain but they were very frank that
he could just never wake up. |
REYES: John Doggett ... where is he? He's not in his
bed.
NURSE: They've taken him down to radiology
to run a CAT scan. Would you like me to

DOGGETT: Is that blood
on your hand, Mr. Conlon?
JEFFREY CONLON: Yeah, I cut myself. |
GABE ROTTER: This... this just isn't right. Can you
clue me in here as to why the cat's so important?
SCULLY: Because it would seem that poor Spanky here may have chewed
a hole in his own
stomach ... which you'll admit
is unusual behavior.
GABE ROTTER: You mean ... he killed himself.
SCULLY: Just like his owner, Mrs. Conlon stabbed herself with a knife.
The wounds are in the same place
and if we figure out why ... well, then, you'll have something really
good to share with your good friend Leyla Harrison, won't you?
SCULLY: Can you hold the
ribs open while I grab that, please?
|
SCULLY: Well, the pattern of bite marks. I mean, it
seems to me that the cat was trying to get at something in its
stomach to chew something out.
|
DOGGETT: Got anything?
REYES: Yeah. A salad spoon no one's ever going to use again. And the
sheriff here? Do not ask me to explain it but he's got absolutely
no internal organs. He's like, he's like
a big bag.
DOGGETT: You know what else? This isn't blood.
Whatever it is, I bet it's the same crap that's all over the inside
of our car. |
| DOGGETT: I've been thinking. You know, I hate to sound
like Agent Harrison but Mulder and Scully had a case like this that
I remember where they were trapped underground with these mushroom
spores that caused hallucinations.
Never mind. |
SCULLY: So, any news on the boy?
REYES: We just got back from the psych
center. Their doctors don't quite know what to make of him. I think
it goes without saying. However, they have come up with a stopgap
treatment. |

SCULLY: It's true, John. She's gone.
DOGGETT: I don't accept that. Look at her breathing. Her
heart's still beating. There's got
to be hope.
SCULLY: There's no measurable electrical activity in her
brain. Brain
death is ... indeed death, John. |
DOGGETT: She's lying there in one piece.
There's no fractures, no damage
to her
skull. Does that add up to you?
SCULLY: John, at the end of the day it doesn't matter. It doesn't
change the diagnosis or her prognosis.
DR. JACK PREIJERS: In these situations time is always of the essence.
There is a woman in Minnesota who can be saved by your friend's heart.
In a real sense, she will live on. |
DOGGETT: Is there anything ... anything
at all?
SCULLY: I did note some minor swelling in the left anterior which
is consistent with subdural hematoma.
|
DOGGETT: This was monitoring her
brain activity, right? Electrical
impulses.
SCULLY: Yeah. She had EEG
monitoring after the point that she coded. |
DOGGETT: I'm wondering about this moment
on my partner's EEG
tape--8:11 P.M., When
brain death apparently occurred.
|
DR. JACK PREIJERS: Agent Doggett, if you're
trying to build a malpractice
case against me or this hospital ...
DOGGETT: I'm not. I just want the facts. |
| DOGGETT: Look, Monica had a seat belt and
an airbag protecting her through the crash. The ambulance crew said
she was conscious at the
scene. I just think there's something we're all missing. |
NURSE WHITNEY: Doctor, it's not my place
to say, but you might want to review the code notes for tonight.
DR. JACK PREIJERS: Why is that?
NURSE WHITNEY: Well, there was an injection
you gave Miss Reyes that wasn't in the notes.
DR. JACK PREIJERS: I don't think so.
NURSE WHITNEY: In trauma bay, I saw you administer the IV
push. I assumed it was epinephrine.
DR. JACK PREIJERS: I have no memory of that. Anybody else see this?
NURSE WHITNEY: Just me. But it happened. My only point being, if there
is an investigation that's the kind of inconsistency malpractice
lawyers love to get ahold of. |
DOGGETT: Well, if it were you, how would
you go about it make it look like natural causes?
SCULLY: Well, I'd use a fast-acting barbiturate
like
pentobarbital. I'd use a
small-bore needle to make it next to impossible to find an injection
mark.
DOGGETT: Next to impossible ... That's why you're perfect for the
job. Should probably test her blood,
too, while you're at it, right? |
SCULLY: What are these?
DOGGETT: Patient files. Both men were declared
brain dead, same as her. All three
have something else in common, too. Check out the attending physician.

SCULLY: So, in other words, you haven't
actually solved these cases.
REYES: Maybe "cracked" is a better word.
SCULLY: Without any other evidence to directly connect them...circumstantial
or forensic. |
| SCULLY: There's a pattern in the bruising. |
| SCULLY: The deceased is Vicki Louise Burdick.
Upon external examination, cause of death appears to be a fatal blow
to the maxilla in which a
small, three-ring pattern lies. I will begin my internal examination
at ... Six o' six p.m. |
SPECIAL AGENT FORDYCE: Agent Doggett, I
think we have a psychological
profile on the murderer.
DOGGETT: What is it?
SPECIAL AGENT FORDYCE: Based on the amalgam of forensic
detail of facts such as time and place the murders were committed
and the amount of force used, we believe the killer is a man in his
mid-20s to late 40s of average build and looks who is driven by rage
stemming from a hatred of his mother from a very early age. He was
a bed-wetter who was made to feel inferior which he took out on the
world by killing small animals. |
SCULLY: Agent Reyes, you can't reduce a
complex factor as physical and psychological
into a game.
REYES: You're a scientist, Agent Scully. Your world is ruled by numbers:
Atoms, molecules,
periodicity.
MR. BURT: Wow!
REYES: And wouldn't it follow that everything made from those things
is ruled by numbers, too: Genes, chromosomes,
us, the universe. |

| BYERS: Genetically-altered
humans. |
JOHN GILLNITZ: Absolutely none. Douglas
was a wonderful teacher and an even better researcher.
REYES: What did he research?
JOHN GILLNITZ: Elasmobranchii -- sharks, rays and skates.
REYES: He was a marine biologist?
JOHN GILLNITZ: An immunologist.
Sharks have a remarkable immune
system. Toxins that would kill nearly
any other vertebrate pass right
through them. |
MEDICAL EXAMINER: The only thing I can say
for sure is what killed him. He was injected
with some sort of tiny poison pellet but
the wound in his
chest was postmortem.
DOGGETT: What is that?
MEDICAL EXAMINER: That's what I said. My best guess is bioluminescence
but I'm still waiting to hear back from our lab.
REYES: Bioluminescence,
as in the stuff that makes lightning bugs glow?
MEDICAL EXAMINER: Lightning bugs, plankton, jellyfish but generally
not dead college professors.
DOGGETT: So, what? This stuff was put on postmortem?
MEDICAL EXAMINER: No, as near as I can tell, it bled
out of him. It gets weirder still. When I opened him up I found adhesions
that indicate past surgery so
I'm figuring I'll find he had a bypass
or a pacemaker. Instead, I find...
this.
REYES: Looks like cartilage.
MEDICAL EXAMINER: It is. It was living tissue grafted into him. I
have absolutely no idea why.
DOGGETT: It held something. Something that's now missing. Could that
be the purpose of this wound? A little
ad hoc surgery? |
REYES: Houghton was an immunologist
doing research on sharks.
YVES ADELE HARLOW: Yes, and he used his knowledge of their immune
system to devise a vessel of sorts -- one that kept him safe from
an engineered virus that he carried
within him.
DOGGETT: This man had living tissue implanted in his
chest.
REYES: Cartilage. Shark cartilage.
It contains something which you removed.
DOGGETT: That was this virus you
were talking about. |
BYERS: What triggers this time bomb?
YVES ADELE HARLOW: Programmed cellular
death -- genetically altered to
a high degree of precision. The way the vessel is decaying inside
of him is virtually clock-like. It will lose integrity and rupture
at 8:00 tonight. |
| YVES ADELE HARLOW: This virus,
once it's airborne ... its kill
radius is five or six miles depending on the winds. Potentially, it
could kill thousands ... tens of thousands. |
DOGGETT: Because the doctors here have run
every kind of imaging on this guy Southall and come up snake eyes.
No virus, no cartilage
vessel in his
chest, nothing. |
| LANGLY: Yeah, so if Southall is involved
and yet he doesn't have the virus
inside of him ... |
| YVES ADELE HARLOW: If that virus
gets into the air stream, we'll have failed. People will die. |
JOHN GILLNITZ: What do you plan to do? By
my watch, it's two minutes to 8:00. Not much time for surgery.

SCULLY: Jane Doe. Found last night entombed
in a tenement wall by an agent who was following an anonymous tip.
Time of death, approximately 2100 hours from three stab wounds
to the
abdomen. Dirt and clay were found
under the nails of her right hand.
CADET 1: What are those lacerations
on her arms and feet?
SCULLY: Predation-- from rats.
The agent was led to her body by the sound of their feeding. Anyone?
CADET 1: She was killed someplace else. She clawed at the dirt before
succumbing to her injuries. |
CADET RUDOLPH HAYES: The chipped nail polish.
The drugstore hair rinse. This is a single woman, unemployed. That's
why no one's ID'd her. You found blood
alcohol?
SCULLY: Point zero four.
CADET RUDOLPH HAYES: She hooked up with the wrong man in a bar. He
killed her. This man has killed before.
SCULLY: And you know that because ...
CADET RUDOLPH HAYES: ... that bruise
beneath her
ribs? It's from the hilt of a knife.
The killer intended a single blow ... the blade thrusting upward at
a 45-degree angle into the
heart, causing death instantly. But
she struggled so, he missed. Then he got mad. Like I said ... obvious.
|
DOGGETT: This says that Rita Shaw was found
in a ditch, dead from a single knife wound.
The woman I found was plastered behind a wall and stabbed three times.
SCULLY: That's why I didn't make the connection at first, either,
but that was the lab on the phone and they confirmed that it was the
same knife in both killings. |
DOGGETT: Is that part of the training here,
Cadet -- smelling body parts?
CADET RUDOLPH HAYES: This man's flesh smells of creosote ... but his
skin is soft. Untanned. He worked
indoors. A hardware store, probably. The tear marks at his elbow go
from left to right. He was broadsided in a car accident. His hands
gripped the wheel so hard ... his thumb
bone snapped on impact. |
REYES: Maybe you remember being at The Bent
Oak. Bartender says he saw you there two weeks ago. The same night
a woman named Rita Shaw got stabbed in the
heart. What do you have to say about
that, Mr. Regali. |
SCULLY: As you asked, I compared the wounds
inflicted on your son with the wounds
on these two women.
DOGGETT: And?
SCULLY: There are similarities between the trajectory of the wounds
and the force with which they were delivered.
DOGGETT: Meaning Regali's the guy.
SCULLY: Meaning that it was a brilliant forensic
deduction on Cadet Hayes's part. But that's all it is. The killer
used different weapons, he demonstrated no consistent M.O, and no
clear victimology. |
AD BRAD FOLLMER: Cadet Hayes's real name
is Stuart Mimms of Mendota, Minnesota. Last known residence the Dakota
County Psychiatric Facility.
REYES: He was a mental patient?
AD BRAD FOLLMER: Diagnosed paranoid
schizophrenic voluntarily
institutionalized in 1990. In 1992, he checked himself out and disappeared.
There's another thing. We can also place him in New York City in 1993
... the year your son was murdered. |
| SCULLY: It's all in there. How you defrauded
the FBI with a false identity in order to gain admittance to the Academy.
We know who you really are. We know about your history with schizophrenia.
We know that you orchestrated this entire thing in order to get close
to Agent Doggett. |
RUDOLPH HAYES: I studied his case obsessively.
I'm a schizophrenic. That's
what schizophrenics do. Obsess.
I watched Agent Doggett. I watched his ex-wife, too. She can't tell
you how she recognizes me just that she does.

| REYES: If you saw him in the light, you'd
understand. Something's wrong with his face. He's been severely burned
by fire or maybe acid. |
| SCULLY: From your scarring,
it appears that you've been burned.
Are you claiming that someone burned
you and that there is evidence here to incriminate them? |
SCULLY: From the tissue quality, the scarring
is fairly recent ...
the extent of it severe but it's not from burning
or chemicals. |
SCULLY: It's not him. It's not Mulder.
DOGGETT: You're absolutely sure of that?
SCULLY: Yes. And so will we all be once you bring me back his DNA
tests. |
| SKINNER: The blood
type matches Mulder's but there are aspects of the physiology
that aren't a match. |
| SKINNER: That was the lab. They were able
to rush the PCR test and they came
up with a definitive DNA result. |
DOGGETT: We got DNA
results. A positive ID.
SCULLY: It's not him. He wouldn't say these things.
DOGGETT: The DNA's a match to Fox Mulder'S.

| THE BREATHER: Think that's going to scar? |
| DOGGETT: Look, I'll be happy to run his
DNA again for you but I don't have
to tell you what a long shot it is. I mean, it came up a perfect match. |

Oh, my god!
REYES: There's blood on the sheets.

SCULLY: He's been injected
with something.
DR. NEWMAN: Take him to trauma.
DOCTOR (checking WILLIAM): Airways
are open.
Lungs are clear.
Heart rate slightly elevated. Skin
is warm. Nondiaphoretic.
|
| SCULLY: I'm a medical doctor,
okay? Can I ... |
DR. WHITNEY EDWARDS: There's some slight
bruising on the head where something
clearly broke the skin, but... he's
fine.
REYES: What about a tox screen?
DR. WHITNEY EDWARDS: There's an elevated amount of iron in his blood
but other than that, your son is completely normal. |
SCULLY: You counted on the DNA
... that we'd buy it without question and not look any further. DNA's
what Mulder shared with Jeffrey Spender. |

SCULLY: Well, for starters, Mr. McCormick
was dead before he landed on the car. His
skull was pulverized from a previous
impact and judging by the roofing material that I found in the wound,
I'd say that Agent Doggett's theory holds water. |
SCULLY: ... look, I had an odd experience
today and, uh, and it made me think to try something unusual. I borrowed
an EEG machine and I wired Mr. McCormick
to it.
SCULLY: And for the last few hours he's been putting off a faint reading.
REYES: Are you saying he's alive?
SCULLY: No, he's dead as a hammer. What I'm reading is some sort of
residual electricity like a ... like a battery that's draining off
its charge. It's fascinating. I mean, I've never seen anything quite
like it. |
| DR. JOHN RIETZ: (on film) Almost immediately
the EEG is registering
an increase in fast beta wave
activity on all leads. Theta activity is
rising as well. Oh, my goodness! |
| SCULLY: I went through Mulder's reference
books. Van Nuys, California, 1970: One of the best documented cases
of what was initially thought to be poltergeist activity. It focused
on a young boy, Anthony Fogelman, who has since changed his name.
And Dr. Rietz was the parapsychologist
who investigated it. |
SCULLY: He was psychokinetic.
DR. JOHN RIETZ: He was the Mozart of psychokinesis.
REYES: Sir, in your line of work why would you fall out of touch with
the Mozart of psychokinesis?
|
| SCULLY: Just minor bruising. |
SCULLY: Oliver's electrolytes
were severely imbalanced -- that's what sent him into shock.
They've stabilized his fluids ...
DR. JOHN RIETZ: When will they release him?
SCULLY: Well, there's other problems. His thyroid
level is elevated. His glucose
is low. CPK, liver
enzymes and BUN
... they're all elevated.
DOGGETT: Which, in a nutshell means ...
SCULLY: It points to a multi-system organ
failure. Gradually his body is consuming itself. It's been going on
for months ... and maybe even years. |
DOGGETT: Any change in his condition?
SCULLY: They're trying everything they can think of. Experimental
drugs, plasma transfusion
... |

SKINNER: What were their interests?
MARITA: Developing an alien virus vaccine
before the Russians developed one.
SKINNER: And how'd they go about that?
MARITA: By testing innocent civilians all over the world. Test subjects
were tracked through a DNA identifiers
in their smallpox vaccination
scars. |
MARITA: They were pretending to work with
the aliens to infect the entire
population with an alien virus, but
the conspirators were trying to save themselves by secretly and selfishly
developing a vaccine. The conspirators
believed all life in the universe had been infected with the virus
including a race of shape-shifting alien bounty hunters who policed
the conspiracy for the aliens. But they were wrong and it led to the
destruction of the conspiracy.
SKINNER: And who destroyed it?
MARITA: A group of renegade aliens who had avoided infection
with the virus through self-disfigurement.
|
| SKINNER: Gibson Praise can read people's
minds. Mulder and Scully proved this scientifically. There's a certain
"junk DNA" which all humans
share but has no apparent function. Gibson's "junk DNA"
is functional. DNA which is believed
to be alien. |
| SKINNER: I want to move to dismiss again
based on new evidence I just received that there is no victim. That
the body of Knowle Rohrer is not Knowle Rohrer, but that of a man
who died of a broken neck and whose body
was burned postmortem. |
| DOGGETT: Death by lethal injection. |
