A YOUNG FBI AGENT IS ASSIGNED WATCHDOG DUTY OVER A FELLOW AGENT, BUT FINDS HERSELF DRAWN INTO HIS INVESTIGATIONS OF PARANORMAL AND UNEXPLAINED PHENOMENA.

A young woman is found dead of no discernible cause in a forest in Oregon, the fourth member of her high school class to die this way. Agent Dana Scully is assigned to assist Agent Fox Mulder in his investigation of this and other unexplainable cases, labeled by the FBI as "X-Files." Although Mulder believes in extraterrestrial abductions, UFOs and the paranormal, Scully believes in nothing not upheld by science and scoffs at his theory that the dead girl and her friends may have been involved in an alien abduction. She is surprised, then, when the coffin of an earlier victim turns out to hold a bizarrely deformed, nonhuman body. As Mulder opens up to her, revealing that his younger sister was abducted when they were children, she begins to understand his pressing need to find the truth. A suspicious fire, the disappearance of the exhumed body and a desperate plea for help from the uncooperative coroner's daughter convinces Scully that local law enforcement is hiding some dangerous secret. Together, Mulder and Scully determine that the sheriff's comatose son is behind the mystery, a theory that leads them to an armed confrontation, a headlong chase through deep woods and a midnight epiphany.

FBI Man: "Are you familiar with an agent named Fox Mulder?"

Scully: "Yes I am."

FBI Man: "How so?"

Scully: "By reputation. He's an Oxford educated Psychologist, who wrote a monograph on serial

killers and the occult, that helped to catch Monty Props in 1988. Generally thought of as

the best analyst in the violent crimes section. He had a nickname at the

academy,...Spooky Mulder." (she smiles at the smoking man, Cancer Man as we will later

know him, gets no reaction)

Blevins: "What I'll also tell you is that Agent Mulder has developed a consuming devotion to an unassigned project outside the bureau mainstream. Are you familiar with the so-called X-Files?"

Scully: "I believe they have to do with unexplained phenomena."

Blevins: "More or less. The reason you're here Agent Scully is we want you to assist Mulder on these X-files. You'll write field reports on your activites, along with your observations on the validity of the work."

Scully: "Am I to understand that you want me to debunk the X-Files project, sir?"

Blevins: "Agent Scully, we trust you'll make the proper scientific analysis. You'll want to contact

Agent Mulder shortly, we look forward to seeing your reports."

Mulder: "Sorry, nobody down here but the FBI's most unwanted."

Scully: "Agent Mulder? I'm Dana Scully. I've been assigned to work with you."

Mulder: "Oh, isn't it nice to be suddenly so highly regarded? So, who did you tick off to get stuck

with this detail, Scully?"

Scully: "Actually, I'm looking forward to working with you. I've heard a lot about you."

Mulder: "Oh really? I was under the impression that you were sent to spy on me."

Scully: "If you have any doubt about my qualifications or credentials th..."

Mulder: "You're a medical doctor, you teach at the academy, (Mulder takes out a folder from one on the trays on the desk) you did your undergraduate degree in physics, "Einstein's twin paradox - A new interpretation" Dana Scully senior thesis. Now that's a credential, rewriting Einstein."

Scully: "Did you bother to read it?"

Mulder: "I did. I liked it. It's just that in most of my work, the laws of physics rarely seem to apply."

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "Do you have a theory?"

Mulder: "I have plenty of theories. Maybe what you can explain to me why it's bureau policy to label these cases as unexplained phenomenon and ignore them. Do you believe in the existence of extra-terrestrials?"

Scully: "Logically, I would have to say no."

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "What I find fantastic is any notion that there are answers beyond the realm of science. The answers are there...you just have to know where to look."

Mulder: "That's why they put the 'I' in 'FBI'."

____________________________________________________________

Mulder: "Yeah, our boys came out here, enjoyed the local salmon, which with a little lemon twist is to die for... if you'll pardon the expression."

____________________________________________________________

Mulder: "I've arranged to exume one of the other victim's bodies to see if we can get a tissue sample to match the girl's.You aren't squeamish about that sort of thing, are you Scully?"

Scully: "I don't know. I've never had the pleasure."

____________________________________________________________

Mulder: "The guy obviously needed a longer vacation."

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "Distinguishing features include large ocular cavities, oblique cranium...indicate subject is not human. Would you point that flash away from me, please?"

Mulder: "If it's not human, what is it?"

____________________________________________________________

Mulder: "I'm not crazy, Scully. I have the same doubts you do."

____________________________________________________________

Scully: (answering the door) "Who is it?"

Mulder: "Steven Spielberg. I'm way too wired. I'm going for a run, wanna come?"

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "Dammit Mulder, cut the crap. What is going on here? What do you know about those marks? What are they?"

Mulder: "Why? So you can put it down in your little report. I don't think you're ready for what I think."

Scully: "I'm here to solve this case Mulder, I want the truth."

Mulder: "The truth. I think those kids have been abducted."

Scully: "By who?"

Mulder: "By *what*?"

Scully: "You don't really believe that?"

Mulder: "Do you have a better explanation?"

Scully: "I'll buy that girl is suffering some kind of pronounced psychosis whether it's organic or the result of those marks, I can't say. But to say that they've been riding around in flying saucers, it's crazy Mulder, there is nothing to support that."

Mulder: "Nothing scientific you mean."

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "What are you looking for? (a bright light suddenly covers the car, both Mulder and Scully try to avert their eyes from it. The car goes dead and comes to a standstill) What happened?"

Mulder: (tries to start car) "We lost power, brakes, steering, everything. (looks at his watch) We lost nine minutes. (he gets out of the car) Waaaooo!"

Scully: (gets out of car) "We lost what?"

Mulder: "Nine minutes. I looked at my watch just before the flash and it was nine-o-three. It just turned nine-thirteen. (Mulder walks along the road in front of the car and discovers the X he sprayed on the road a few days earlier) Look! Look! Ohoo, yes. Abductees, people who have made UFO sightings, they have reported unexplained time loss."

Scully: "Come on."

Mulder: "GONE. Just like that."

Scully: "No, wait a minute. You're saying that, that time disappeared. Time can't just disappear, it's, it's, it's a universal invariance." (the car's engine restarts and the headlights come on)

Mulder: "Not in this zipcode."

____________________________________________________________

Mulder: "I was twelve when it happened. My sister was eight. She just disappeared out of her bed one night. Just gone, vanished, no note, no phone calls, no evidence of anything."

Scully: "You never found her."

Mulder: "Tore the family apart. No one would talk about it. There were no facts to confirm, nothing to offer any hope."

____________________________________________________________

Mulder: "You're part of that agenda, you know that."

Scully: "I'm not a part of any agenda. You've got to trust me. I'm here just like you - to solve this."

(Scully & Mulder's hotel is burning to the ground with all of their evidence inside)

Scully: "There goes my computer."

____________________________________________________________

Mulder: "You gotta love this place. Everyday's like Halloween."

____________________________________________________________

Ethan: (to Scully) "Can I ask what's so important to be ruining our trip? National Security is not an acceptable answer."

____________________________________________________________

Blevins: "I see no evidence that justifies the legitimacy of these investigations."

Scully: "There were, of course, crimes committed."

Blevins: "Yes, but how do you prosecute a case like this?"

____________________________________________________________

Blevins: "Agent Mulder-- what are his thoughts?"
