Gillian Anderson credited as playing...
Dana Scully
- Cigarette Smoking Man: I like to make myself useful.
- Scully: You can start by putting out that cigarette.
- Cigarette Smoking Man: Got it all figured out, don't you, Agent Scully?
- Scully: All but why you can't just come to the door and knock.
- Cigarette Smoking Man: I did that. No one answered.
- Scully: You're sick.
- Cigarette Smoking Man: I had an operation.
- Scully: What do you want?
- Cigarette Smoking Man: I want you to stop looking.
- Scully: You've wanted that since 1973 when you ordered an end to the search for Agent Mulder's sister. Your initials are on that document.
- Cigarette Smoking Man: Yes, I signed that order because I knew then what I know now. No one is going to find her.
- Scully: Why not?
- Cigarette Smoking Man: Because I believe she's dead. No reason to believe otherwise.
- Scully: You're a liar. If you knew that she was dead why didn't you say something earlier? Why now?
- Cigarette Smoking Man: There was so much to protect before... It's all gone now.
- Scully: So you just let Mulder believe that she was alive for all these years?
- Cigarette Smoking Man: Out of kindness, Agent Scully. Allow him his ignorance... It's what gives him hope.
