Gillian Anderson credited as playing...
Dana Scully
- [Mulder and Scully have just asked two teens if they saw a flying saucer]
- Scully: Mulder, did you see their eyes? If I were that stoned...
- Mulder: Ooh! If you were that stoned, what?
- Scully: Mulder, you could've shown that kid a picture of a flying hamburger and he would've told that's *exactly* what he saw.
- Mulder: You saw exactly what I saw in the sky tonight. What do you think they were?
- Scully: Just because I can't explain it, doesn't mean I'm gonna believe they were UFOs.
- Mulder: Unidentified Flying Objects, I think that fits the description pretty well. Tell me I'm crazy.
- Scully: Mulder, you're crazy.
- Zoe: [about a picture of a UFO, which she claims took herself] I'm selling limited edition prints, twenty dollars. Down to my last five, if you're interested.
- Mulder: Put it on my tab.
- Scully: [Leans over to Mulder] Sucker.
- Mulder: What would the chances be of someone like me, seeing a UFO?
- Scully: Catch ye outside.
- [Outside the diner, Scully is looking at a map, Mulder comes out]
- Scully: Wanna see something weird, Mulder? Ellens Air Base isn't even on my US GS quadrant map.
- Mulder: I know. Let's go.
- Scully: You know. Where are we going?
- Mulder: We got our own map, sucker.
- [He gives her a piece of paper with a roughly drawn map on it]
- Scully: Did you ever stop to think that what we saw was simply an experimental plane? Like the stealth bomber or this Aurora Project? Doesn't the government have a right and a responsibility to protect it's secrets?
- Mulder: Yes, but at what cost? When does the human cost become too high for the building of a better machine?
- Mulder: I think there's a huge conspiracy here Scully. They've got a UFO here, I'm sure of it. And they'll do anything to keep it a secret, including sacrificing lives and minds of those pilots, because what if that secret got out.
- Scully: If that were true, it would be a national scandal.
- Mulder: No no, you're not thinking big enough, if it were true, it would be confirmation of the existence of extraterrestrial life.
