The Beginning

Quotes



Mulder: "Using a process that restores moisture to the documents and by the reassembling of fragments, I should be able to recover a large percentage of the case material that was destroyed in my office fire several months ago. And while this process will be tedious and ongoing, what I have already recovered will allow Agent Scully and I to begin work on the x-files immediately."
Assistant Director J. Maslin: "Agent Mulder. Agent Mulder, I'm reading here a very pie-in-the-sky report about global domination plans by vicious long-clawed spacelings? Is there going to be data to back this vague, omnibus account?"
Mulder: "Yes."
Assistant Director P. Bart: "I see your renouned arrogance has been left quite intact. You're asking us to accept this report of a spaceship burried under polar ice and your death-defying escape from it?"
Mulder: "The ice had become super heated by te ship as it rose beneath us, causing the ice to collapse."
Bart: "This entire story is essentially unintelligible and, therefor, encourages unintelligible analysis."
Mulder: "Well, I was hoping that you'd look more closely at the reports of my and Agent Scully's medical conditions."
Assistant Director G. Arnold: "These spacelings, Agent Mulder, they weren't something I saw in Men in Black ?"
Mulder: "I didn't see Men in Black ."
Arnold: "Well, it's a damn good movie."
Mulder: "Yeah, well as much as this all may sound like science fiction, we can and will prove the validity of our report."
Maslin: "And so the plot, I'm just trying to get this straight. The plot is for these spacelings to take over the planet aided by a group of men here on Earth?"
Mulder: "A shadow conspiracy within our own government."
Maslin: "Who are growing corn in the middle of the dessert which features pollen which was genetically altered to hold a virus which will be taken away by bees, whose sting transmits the virus, causing the growth of an extraterrestrial biological entity inside the human host?"
Mulder: "Which we will prove now that the x-files have been reopened."
Bart: "Your presumption, Agent Mulder, is far greater than the case you make."
Mulder: "I'm not sure I understand."
Bart: "You're here to justify your reassignment on the x-files with little more than a rattletrap account of high adventure in the Antarctic."
Arnold: "Not to mention some very questionable travel expenses."
Maslin: "Let us reming you that the FBI is not a school of science or for the grinding of personal axes and, hopefully, you will be able to present us with some material evidence to support a continued investigation."
Mulder: "Agent Scully was assigned to the x-files as a scientist, was stung by one of these bees, and was infected with the virus. She is here with hard and incontrovertible evidence, scientific proof that the virus she was infected with is, in fact, extraterrestrial."

Mulder: "Next time, I'll wear a clown suite and do balloon tricks."
Scully: "Mulder, I was hoping it wouldn't come up."
Mulder: "The only reason I was in there was because you assured me there was a scientific basis for what we saw."
Scully: "Mulder, let me reming you once again that what I saw was very little."
Mulder: "Look, Scully, that excuse is not going to work this time. You were there and you were infected with that virus."
Scully: "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 is that that virus's DNA and proteins are very much of this world."
Mulder: "I saw what that virus did. I saw it generate a new being, and alien being, inside a human body."
Scully: "It attacks and destroys human cells, but that is all that 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!"

Skinner: "Nothing you might restore is going to help you, Agent Mulder. It's over and done. Your reassignment on the x-files has been denied."
Mulder: "How can it be denied? We're the only reason the x-files were reopened in the first place, there's no other reason to reopen them."
Skinner: "I'm not arguing that..."
Mulder: "Well, then who is?!?"
Skinner: "When will you accept that no amount of pressure or reason will bring to heel a conspiracy whose members walk these halls wilth absolute impunity?"
Mulder: "Was there a vote?"
Skinner: "Unanimous against."

Mulder: "If you're about to tell me that you were sent down here to work on the x-files, I think the failure is simple judgement. I don't care what patronage got you this job. I put my life in here. I'm not going to let some brown-nose just slide in and take it all away from me."
Spender: "I don't believe in your work, the paranormal mumbo jumbo, so don't presume I'm the one taking your place."
Mulder: "No? Who is?" Agent Fowley walks in...
Fowley: "Fox."
Mulder: "Diana, back on your feet. I guess that's the only way you could stab me in the back."

Scully: "Mulder, I just want to remind you that by not informing local PD, we are in technical violation of state laws prohibiting contamination of a crime scene. Why do I bother?"

Scully: "What is that?"
Mulder: "Aw. Somebody broke a nail."
Scully: "Is it animal?"
Mulder: "It ain't RuPaul."

Mulder: "I don't see there's any argument here. You admit yourselft that the crime reposrt is a lie."
Scully: "Mulder, that doesn't mean that I can just accept your theory."
Mulder: "What does it take? For this thing to come up and bite you on the ass? I saw these creatures. I saw them burst to life. You would've seen them, too, but you were infected with that virus. You were passed out over my shoulder."
Scully: "Mulder, I know what you did. I know what happened to me, but without ignoring the science, I can't... Listen, Mulder." She holds his hand "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."
Mulder: "I'm talking about extraterrestrial life alive on this planet in our lifetime. Forces that dwarf and precede all human history. I'm sorry, Scully, but this time your science is wrong."

Gibson Praise: "Frankenstein, really?"
Scully: "No. No, you've been worked on by some good doctors. They did a fine job of your stiches."
Gibson: "You think they were butchers."
Mulder: "They were butchers."
Scully: "They should've changed your bandages, Gibson. You've got some swelling and some infection, and you've got a fever. Why did they do this to you?"
Gibson: "Because I can read people's minds."
Mulder: "How did you get in our car?"
Gibson: "When they weren't looking, I snuck away. It's easy when you know what they're thinking."
Mulder: "Why are you here?"
Gibson: "They were using me because I can communicate with it."
Scully: "Communicate with what?"
Gibson: "You already know. You just don't want to believe it."

Scully: "We have to take every precaution. We have to make every effort to ensure that nothing happens to this boy, becuase whatever he is, whatever gives him the ability to do what he does, he's your scientific evidence. It's just like we said. He could be the key to everything in the x-files."
Mulder: "But we don't have the x-files."
Scully: "No, but what if he can corroborate everything that you're saying. This boy could be our last, best chance."
