1. Each passing year has seenCopy !req
2. our estimate of the probability
of life in space increase,Copy !req
3. along with our capabilities
of detecting it.Copy !req
4. More and more scientists
feel that contactCopy !req
5. with other civilizationsCopy !req
6. is no longer something
beyond our dreams,Copy !req
7. but is a natural event
in the history of mankindCopy !req
8. that will perhaps occur within
the lifetime of many of us.Copy !req
9. Oh, excuse me.Copy !req
10. Make way.Copy !req
11. Let her through.Copy !req
12. Agent Scully?Copy !req
13. Detective Rempulski,
Alexandria PD.Copy !req
14. Thanks for coming
down to do this.Copy !req
15. It him?Copy !req
16. Yeah.Copy !req
17. Agent Scully,
please have a seat.Copy !req
18. Agent Scully,
we've had a brief discussion,Copy !req
19. but will you restate the matter
we're here to put to rest?Copy !req
20. Yes, sir.Copy !req
21. Four years ago,Copy !req
22. Section Chief Blevins
assigned meCopy !req
23. Section Chief Blevins
assigned meCopy !req
24. to a project you all know
as the X Files.Copy !req
25. As I am a medical doctorCopy !req
26. with a background
in hard science,Copy !req
27. my job was to provide
an analytical perspectiveCopy !req
28. on the work
of Special Agent Fox Mulder,Copy !req
29. whose investigations
into the paranormalCopy !req
30. were fueled by a personal beliefCopy !req
31. that his sister had been
abducted by aliensCopy !req
32. when he was 12.Copy !req
33. I come here today,
four years later,Copy !req
34. I come here today,
four years later,Copy !req
35. to report on the illegitimacy
of Agent Mulder's work.Copy !req
36. That it is my scientific opinionCopy !req
37. that he became over the course
of these years a victim—Copy !req
38. a victim of his own false hopesCopy !req
39. and of his belief
in the biggest of lies.Copy !req
40. We're meeting the guide
at base camp.Copy !req
41. He'll take us to the site.Copy !req
42. Has he seen it?Copy !req
43. Oh, yeah.Copy !req
44. He said it's unbelievable.Copy !req
45. How soon can we get to the site?Copy !req
46. Right now, we'd be pushing itCopy !req
47. to be on top by nightfall.Copy !req
48. I'd rather sleep
seeing itCopy !req
49. than lay awake
all night wondering.Copy !req
50. It'll take some work.Copy !req
51. I've waited all my life
for this day.Copy !req
52. Let's do it.Copy !req
53. Over here.Copy !req
54. How you doing?Copy !req
55. My God.Copy !req
56. It's beautiful.Copy !req
57. Agent Scully,
I presume you have a basisCopy !req
58. for this break
from Agent Mulder.Copy !req
59. Yes, sir.Copy !req
60. Recent events
have shed new lightCopy !req
61. on the factual
and physical evidenceCopy !req
62. that would serve
to prove the existenceCopy !req
63. of extraterrestrial life,Copy !req
64. which is the foundation
of Agent Mulder'sCopy !req
65. consuming devotion to his work.Copy !req
66. What factual evidence?Copy !req
67. Agent Mulder was recently
contacted by a manCopy !req
68. Agent Mulder was recently
contacted by a manCopy !req
69. whose pursuit of this evidence
seemed to coincide with his own.Copy !req
70. In his intenseCopy !req
71. desire to believe,Copy !req
72. Agent Mulder was duped
by this man.Copy !req
73. He was fooled by an act
of scientific sleight of handCopy !req
74. calculated to perpetuate
false truths—Copy !req
75. the larger lie.Copy !req
76. I am here today
to expose this lie,Copy !req
77. to show the mechanism
of deceptionCopy !req
78. that drew him and me into it,Copy !req
79. that drew him and me into it,Copy !req
80. and to expose Agent Mulder's
work for what it is.Copy !req
81. remembered it myself,Copy !req
82. but something about me
standing— I was, like,Copy !req
83. a two-and-a-half-year-old—
behind him on the stairsCopy !req
84. and grabbing him
by the knees,Copy !req
85. and then him
falling backwardsCopy !req
86. tumbling over me
and down the stairs.Copy !req
87. Hi.Copy !req
88. Speaking of Bill— is he coming?Copy !req
89. Good evening.
May I take your coat?Copy !req
90. Thank you.
Thank you.Copy !req
91. There he is.Copy !req
92. Hi.Copy !req
93. Hello, Dana.Copy !req
94. Look at you.Copy !req
95. Look at you,
my big brother.Copy !req
96. I'm sorry I'm late.Copy !req
97. My ship got stuck in traffic.Copy !req
98. Did you get my birthday card?Copy !req
99. Yes, I did. Thanks for
remembering this year.Copy !req
100. Once a decade.Copy !req
101. Father McCue. Oh.Copy !req
102. Been waiting for you.Copy !req
103. How you feeling, Dana?Copy !req
104. I'm fine.Copy !req
105. Let's get some dinner, huh?Copy !req
106. Yeah, I'm starving.Copy !req
107. Everything's ready. Oh.Copy !req
108. Everything's ready. Oh.Copy !req
109. So the parrot says,
"I only got one question.Copy !req
110. What did that chicken
in there do?"Copy !req
111. Mom, I'll open some more wine.Copy !req
112. Okay.Copy !req
113. I feel awkward
sitting here.Copy !req
114. I feel awkward
sitting here.Copy !req
115. I'm sure you do, too.Copy !req
116. No. I'm sorry.Copy !req
117. I've known your familyCopy !req
118. for so many years.Copy !req
119. Your mother asked me to come,Copy !req
120. that I might have
a word with you.Copy !req
121. I know it's
been some timeCopy !req
122. since we've spoken
ourselves,Copy !req
123. since you drifted
from the church...Copy !req
124. Father McCue...Copy !req
125. But in time
of personal crisis,Copy !req
126. a threat to your health,Copy !req
127. turning back to your faith
is importantCopy !req
128. and essential.Copy !req
129. Father McCue...Copy !req
130. I appreciate
my mother's concern...Copy !req
131. I appreciate
my mother's concern...Copy !req
132. and yours, but I'm being treated
for my cancerCopy !req
133. and I'm taking every precaution.Copy !req
134. Faith can make you stronger.Copy !req
135. I haven't felt a need.Copy !req
136. Um... I have strength.Copy !req
137. And...Copy !req
138. And I'm not going
to come running back now.Copy !req
139. It's just not who I am.Copy !req
140. I'd be lying to myself
and to you.Copy !req
141. Dana.Copy !req
142. Dana.Copy !req
143. Phone.Copy !req
144. Excuse me.Copy !req
145. Hello?Copy !req
146. Hey, Scully, it's me.Copy !req
147. Sorry to interrupt your dinner.Copy !req
148. No, uh...
is something the matter?Copy !req
149. I need your help on something.Copy !req
150. Somebody named ArlinskyCopy !req
151. just contacted me
over at the Smithsonian.Copy !req
152. Contacted you about what?Copy !req
153. About something he found
on a mountain in Canada.Copy !req
154. What?Copy !req
155. I'd rather not to talk about it
over the phone.Copy !req
156. I'd rather not to talk about it
over the phone.Copy !req
157. I just need you to meet me
over at the Smithsonian.Copy !req
158. When?Copy !req
159. Right away.Copy !req
160. I'm on my way.Copy !req
161. I'm going to have
to apologize to your
brother and mother.Copy !req
162. This is something that
just couldn't wait though.Copy !req
163. It's okay.Copy !req
164. Who's this Arlinsky?Copy !req
165. He's a forensics
anthropologistCopy !req
166. that I've been in contact with
over the past four years.Copy !req
167. that I've been in contact with
over the past four years.Copy !req
168. Several years ago,
he was involvedCopy !req
169. in an embarrassing UFO
photo enhancement scandal,Copy !req
170. but he continues
to profess his innocence.Copy !req
171. What am I coming to see?Copy !req
172. I'm not going to tell you.Copy !req
173. I want you to decide
for yourself.Copy !req
174. By my rough estimateCopy !req
175. from the sediment
in our ice core samples,Copy !req
176. the body you're looking at
is over 200 years old.Copy !req
177. It looks perfectly intact.
Yeah.Copy !req
178. That doesn't make sense.Copy !req
179. There would've been
signs of predation.Copy !req
180. Yeah, but the position
he was found in—Copy !req
181. stuffed in a crevice
at high altitude,Copy !req
182. stuffed in a crevice
at high altitude,Copy !req
183. he may have frozen fast
enough to avoid being eaten.Copy !req
184. Does that fit geologically?Copy !req
185. The area where
he was foundCopy !req
186. is in the terminal
moraine of a glacierCopy !req
187. which has since receded.Copy !req
188. 200 years ago, the area
where he was frozenCopy !req
189. was within the tree line, so
there would have been a thaw.Copy !req
190. Who found him?Copy !req
191. A Canadian geodetic
survey team.Copy !req
192. Uh, there...Copy !req
193. Along with a colleague of mine
named Babcock.Copy !req
194. They're all still up thereCopy !req
195. on the mountain.Copy !req
196. Who else knows about this?Copy !req
197. No one.Copy !req
198. No one.Copy !req
199. I know what your first thought
was, but the Saint Elias Range?Copy !req
200. That's a long way
to go for a hoax.Copy !req
201. Well, if you're going to go,
why not go all the way?Copy !req
202. Well, I'm circumspect myself,Copy !req
203. but the ice core samples
I took— they can't be faked.Copy !req
204. You have the ice core
samples here?Copy !req
205. Yeah. Yeah.Copy !req
206. One taken from each side
of the body.Copy !req
207. A 360-degree matching
integrity of sediment.Copy !req
208. A 360-degree matching
integrity of sediment.Copy !req
209. It's my sincere belief
that what we have hereCopy !req
210. is the complete corpusCopy !req
211. of an extraterrestrial
biological entity.Copy !req
212. Absolute and
irrefutable.Copy !req
213. Qualitatively indefensible.Copy !req
214. You go public with this, and
nobody's going to believe you.Copy !req
215. You also risk never knowing for
sure, because the same peopleCopy !req
216. who buried the truth
so assiduouslyCopy !req
217. will be in charge
of its authentication.Copy !req
218. That's why I came to you.Copy !req
219. I need to get the specimen out
so I can authenticate it.Copy !req
220. This body means everything
to you,Copy !req
221. This body means everything
to you,Copy !req
222. Agent Mulder.Copy !req
223. You're going to have
the proof in your hands.Copy !req
224. And what do you want?Copy !req
225. We just want the credit.Copy !req
226. You think it's foolish.Copy !req
227. I have no opinion,
actually.Copy !req
228. You have no opinion?Copy !req
229. This is your holy grail,
Mulder, not mine.Copy !req
230. What is that
supposed to mean?Copy !req
231. It just means
that proving to the worldCopy !req
232. the existence of alien life
is not my last dying wish.Copy !req
233. How about Santa Claus
or the Easter Bunny?Copy !req
234. This is not some selfish
pet project of mine, Scully.Copy !req
235. I'm as skeptical
of that man as you are,Copy !req
236. but proof, definitive proof
of sentient beingsCopy !req
237. sharing time
and existence with us—Copy !req
238. that would change everything.Copy !req
239. Every truth we live by
would be shaken to the ground.Copy !req
240. There is no greater revelation
imaginable,Copy !req
241. no greater scientific discovery.Copy !req
242. You already believe, Mulder.Copy !req
243. What difference will it make?Copy !req
244. I mean, what will proof
change for you?Copy !req
245. If someone could prove to you
the existence of God,Copy !req
246. would it change you?Copy !req
247. would it change you?Copy !req
248. Only if it had been disproven.Copy !req
249. Then you accept the possibility
that belief in God is a lie?Copy !req
250. I don't think about it,
actually.Copy !req
251. And I don't think
that it can be proven.Copy !req
252. But what if it could be?Copy !req
253. Wouldn't that knowledge
be worth seeking?Copy !req
254. Or is it just easier to go on
believing the lie?Copy !req
255. I can't go with you, Mulder.Copy !req
256. Well, can you at least take
a look at those core samplesCopy !req
257. and tell me if they're a lie?Copy !req
258. That's all I'm asking.Copy !req
259. What I couldn't tell
Agent Mulder,Copy !req
260. what I had only
just learned myself,Copy !req
261. was that the cancer
which had been diagnosed in meCopy !req
262. several months earlier
had metastasized.Copy !req
263. And the doctors told me,Copy !req
264. short of a miracle,Copy !req
265. it would continue
to aggressively invade my body,Copy !req
266. advancing faster each day
towards the inevitable.Copy !req
267. What's that for?Copy !req
268. I don't know these men well.Copy !req
269. Do you?Copy !req
270. Well enough.Copy !req
271. I'm going to be up here aloneCopy !req
272. till you get back.Copy !req
273. I hope I don't have to use it.Copy !req
274. I think you better have
a look at this.Copy !req
275. We were doing a lateral
cut to the back cornerCopy !req
276. We were doing a lateral
cut to the back cornerCopy !req
277. when I saw something
in the ice.Copy !req
278. Right here.Copy !req
279. What do you think that is?Copy !req
280. I don't know.Copy !req
281. It could be a bubble,
a weak spot.Copy !req
282. Or a casting channel,
a pour hole—Copy !req
283. liquid poured in from the side
or above somehow.Copy !req
284. Poured from where?Copy !req
285. Poured from where?Copy !req
286. I don't know.Copy !req
287. The angle
wouldn't make sense.Copy !req
288. Yeah. You're right.Copy !req
289. We'll never know
until we get it out of there.Copy !req
290. The ion concentration, density
and temperature profilesCopy !req
291. are all consistent.Copy !req
292. There's a tight
matrix of crystalsCopy !req
293. at about proximal center,Copy !req
294. suggesting the quick-freezing
scenario you mentioned.Copy !req
295. Here at the terminus,Copy !req
296. you've got some
particulate hydrocarbons—Copy !req
297. jet fuel pollutants found just
about everywhere in the world.Copy !req
298. But not in old ice?Copy !req
299. Don't misunderstand.Copy !req
300. Don't misunderstand.Copy !req
301. This is old ice.Copy !req
302. This sample has numerous
layers of sedimentation,Copy !req
303. like the rings
on a tree, essentially.Copy !req
304. So it hasn't been
tampered with?Copy !req
305. No. Not from what
I can see here.Copy !req
306. Can I ask why it is
you're testing this ice?Copy !req
307. Uh, another agent asked me to.Copy !req
308. Do you know where this sample
came from?Copy !req
309. From a site
in the Yukon territory.Copy !req
310. Why?Copy !req
311. There's some...Copy !req
312. cellular material
within the matrix.Copy !req
313. Plant or animal?Copy !req
314. I don't know.Copy !req
315. I don't know.Copy !req
316. It's what I'd have to classify
a chimera—Copy !req
317. a hybrid cell.Copy !req
318. From what?Copy !req
319. As I said, I don't know.Copy !req
320. Is it capable of cell division?Copy !req
321. I don't know that either.
I've just now found them.Copy !req
322. I'd like to get them
under our electron microscope,Copy !req
323. if that's okay.Copy !req
324. Yes, please.Copy !req
325. What's going on?Copy !req
326. I thought
you said there wasCopy !req
327. someone meeting us.Copy !req
328. Yeah, a guide named Rolston.Copy !req
329. I don't get it.Copy !req
330. This had all
been arranged.Copy !req
331. He knew he was supposed to
take us up to the summit.Copy !req
332. I don't know what to do.Copy !req
333. We can probably follow this
track right up to the site.Copy !req
334. Maybe we'll meet him
on the way down.Copy !req
335. Funny place
to take a nap.Copy !req
336. He's been shot.Copy !req
337. Oh, my God.Copy !req
338. It's our guide?Copy !req
339. Yeah.Copy !req
340. Excuse me.Copy !req
341. I'm looking for Dr. Vitagliano.Copy !req
342. Dr. Vitagliano— is he here?Copy !req
343. Uh, no, I'm afraid not.Copy !req
344. I, uh, I was supposed
to meet him here actually.Copy !req
345. I'm-I'm a little late.Copy !req
346. Sorry.Copy !req
347. Oh, my God!Copy !req
348. They're all dead.
They've been shot.Copy !req
349. Babcock!Copy !req
350. The body.Copy !req
351. It's gone. They took it!Copy !req
352. No one knew.Copy !req
353. We didn't tell a soul.Copy !req
354. They had radio communication.Copy !req
355. Maybe it was being
monitored... Shh.Copy !req
356. Someone's still alive.Copy !req
357. It's Babcock.Copy !req
358. Give him some water.Copy !req
359. Looks like he took
a shotgun hit,Copy !req
360. but it didn't
open him up too badly.Copy !req
361. The bleeding's stopped.Copy !req
362. Who did this?Copy !req
363. There you go.Copy !req
364. They took the body, Babcock.Copy !req
365. No.Copy !req
366. I buried it.Copy !req
367. Where?Copy !req
368. Dana?Copy !req
369. Bill.Copy !req
370. What are you doing here?Copy !req
371. I picked up the phone
when they called Mom's.Copy !req
372. Said you could use
a change of clothes.Copy !req
373. Thank you.Copy !req
374. Um, where's Mom?Copy !req
375. I didn't tell Mom
what happened.Copy !req
376. So, what did happen?Copy !req
377. I, uh... was knocked down
a flight of stairs.Copy !req
378. But I'm okay, luckily.Copy !req
379. You're not okay, Dana.Copy !req
380. I know about your cancer.Copy !req
381. I told Mom not to tell you.Copy !req
382. Why?Copy !req
383. Because it's very personal.Copy !req
384. Because it's very personal.Copy !req
385. Because I don't want sympathy.Copy !req
386. You think you can cure yourself.Copy !req
387. Mom tells me thatCopy !req
388. you've gotten worse—Copy !req
389. that your cancer's gone
into your bloodstream.Copy !req
390. What are you doing at work
getting knocked downCopy !req
391. and beaten up?
What are you trying to prove?Copy !req
392. That you're going
to go out fighting?Copy !req
393. Oh, now, come on, Bill.Copy !req
394. Do you know what Mom
is going through?Copy !req
395. Do you know what Mom
is going through?Copy !req
396. Why do you think I didn't
tell her when they called?Copy !req
397. What should I be doing?Copy !req
398. We have a responsibilityCopy !req
399. not just to ourselves,
but to the people in our lives.Copy !req
400. Hey, look, just-just because
I haven't bared my soul to youCopy !req
401. or to Father McCue or to God,Copy !req
402. it doesn't mean
that I'm not responsibleCopy !req
403. to what's important to me.Copy !req
404. To what?Copy !req
405. To who?Copy !req
406. This guy Mulder?Copy !req
407. Well, where is he, Dana?Copy !req
408. Where is he through all this?Copy !req
409. Thank you for coming.Copy !req
410. Dana...Copy !req
411. We should be able to doCopy !req
412. a good enough examination
of the body right hereCopy !req
413. to remove any doubt.Copy !req
414. to remove any doubt.Copy !req
415. We won't know for sure until
we do a carbon-dating test.Copy !req
416. I'm anticipating his physiology
alone is going to be telltale.Copy !req
417. The Piltdown Man hoax wasn't
uncovered for 40 years,Copy !req
418. until it failed
a carbon-dating test,Copy !req
419. and that wasn't
even very good.Copy !req
420. If this were a hoax,Copy !req
421. would we have six dead menCopy !req
422. up on that mountain?Copy !req
423. Now, somebody other than usCopy !req
424. sure as hell believes
it's not.Copy !req
425. As you can imagine,Copy !req
426. that's a fairly heavily
trafficked stairwell.Copy !req
427. So we went back to the bio-labCopy !req
428. where we found
an anomalous set of latents.Copy !req
429. where we found
an anomalous set of latents.Copy !req
430. Found a partial
matching in the stairwellCopy !req
431. four centimeters
from one of yours.Copy !req
432. Have you run it
through the NCIC?Copy !req
433. Yeah. This is your assailant.Copy !req
434. Unfortunately, he doesn't
have a criminal record.Copy !req
435. Try the federal database.Copy !req
436. I'll be damned.Copy !req
437. How'd you know he'd be
a government employee?Copy !req
438. Where does he work?Copy !req
439. Right here in Washington.Copy !req
440. Right here in Washington.Copy !req
441. Michael Kritschgau,Copy !req
442. formerly of the U.S. Army,
now attachedCopy !req
443. to the Pentagon's
research division in Virginia.Copy !req
444. Is this the man?Copy !req
445. Body is 147 centimeters long,Copy !req
446. Body is 147 centimeters long,Copy !req
447. weighing 24 kilograms,

reached Agent MulderCopy !req

outside of WashingtonCopy !req

was ready to believeCopy !req

510. of an extraterrestrial
biological entity,Copy !req
511. that he hadCopy !req
512. finally found the proof
which had eluded him,Copy !req
513. which would confirmCopy !req
514. not only the existence
of alien life,Copy !req
515. but of his sister Samantha's
abduction.Copy !req
516. But this man Kritschgau
had convinced you otherwise.Copy !req
517. How?Copy !req
518. He told me a storyCopy !req
519. which detailed, point by point,
the systematic wayCopy !req
520. which detailed, point by point,
the systematic wayCopy !req
521. in which Agent Mulder
had been deceived and used,Copy !req
522. and how ICopy !req

had been led down the same path.Copy !req
524. Losing a family member
due to my allegianceCopy !req
525. and contracting a fatal disease,Copy !req

was engineered by the menCopy !req

for Agent Mulder's deception.Copy !req
528. Were you ableCopy !req
529. to convince Agent Mulder
of these facts?Copy !req

545. Oh, yeah.Copy !req
546. Then we're the only ones
who know.Copy !req
547. Right.Copy !req
548. The lie you believe,Copy !req
549. that they have cleverly led you
to believe, Agent Mulder,Copy !req
550. is that there is intelligent
life other than our ownCopy !req
551. and that we have had contact
with these life-forms.Copy !req
552. So you're saying this has
all been orchestrated—Copy !req
553. a hoax?Copy !req
554. Which you've been used
to perpetuate.Copy !req
555. You come by this knowledge how?Copy !req
556. Working for the D.O.D.Copy !req
557. Watching a military-
industrial complexCopy !req

unchecked during the Cold WarCopy !req

attention from itselfCopy !req
560. and its continued
misdeedsCopy !req
561. by confabulating enough
believable evidenceCopy !req
562. to convince passionate
adepts like yourselfCopy !req
563. that it really could be true.Copy !req
564. And just by chance
you run into Agent Scully?Copy !req
565. That's just like you,
Agent Mulder—Copy !req
566. suspicious of everything
but what you should be.Copy !req
567. I ran the D.O.D.'s
agitprop arm for a decade.Copy !req
568. I can show you records
of disinformationCopy !req
569. dating back to the Korean War,
before you were even born.Copy !req

573. He served in the Gulf War.Copy !req
574. The lies are so deep,
the only way to cover themCopy !req
575. is to create something
even more incredible.Copy !req
576. They invented you.Copy !req
577. Your regression
hypnosis,Copy !req
578. the story of your
sister's abduction,Copy !req
579. the lies they fed
your father.Copy !req
580. You wanted to
believe so badly.Copy !req
581. And who could have blamed you?Copy !req
582. And the thousands
of UFO sightings?Copy !req
583. Above top-secret
military aircraftCopy !req
584. Above top-secret
military aircraftCopy !req
585. concept-designed
to feed hysteria.Copy !req
586. Evidence of alien biology?Copy !req
587. Unclassified,Copy !req
588. but naturally occurring
biologic anomaliesCopy !req
589. science will eventually explain.Copy !req
590. The body that was found?Copy !req
591. Meticulously constructed
out of bio-materialsCopy !req
592. created through
the hybridizationCopy !req
593. of differentiated cells—
what are called chimeras.Copy !req
594. Frozen into place over the
course of a year, using sedimentCopy !req
595. and materials that would
bear out its age.Copy !req
596. Poured through a small channel
drilled in the rock above.Copy !req
597. Poured through a small channel
drilled in the rock above.Copy !req
598. They would've known that
the body would be carbon-dated,Copy !req
599. that it would be proved a fake.Copy !req
600. The body will never be tested,
Agent Mulder.Copy !req
601. What do you mean?Copy !req
602. You were only meant to see itCopy !req
603. to make you believe the lieCopy !req
604. so that you might
finally commitCopy !req
605. and go public with the news.Copy !req
606. This man is a liar.Copy !req
607. You can see for yourself,
Agent Mulder.Copy !req
608. The body is already long gone.Copy !req
609. The body is already long gone.Copy !req
610. Dr. Arlinsky?Copy !req
611. It's gone.Copy !req
612. Mulder.Copy !req
613. What?Copy !req
614. It's Arlinsky.Copy !req
615. He's dead.Copy !req
616. So is this man.Copy !req
617. Who did this, Mulder?Copy !req
618. Mulder?Copy !req
619. What we had here
was proof, Scully.Copy !req
620. There's no way
it could be anything else.Copy !req
621. There's no way
it could be anything else.Copy !req
622. You said it
yourself, Mulder—Copy !req
623. more tests
needed to be run.Copy !req
624. Yeah, but the ice core samples
checked out.Copy !req
625. If the ice hasn't been
tampered with,Copy !req
626. how could the body within
be a fake?Copy !req
627. Cellular material found
in the ice core samplesCopy !req
628. were a direct match for what
this man Kritschgau described.Copy !req
629. Hybrid cells—Copy !req
630. chimeras within
the matrix.Copy !req
631. Do we know for sure that those
cells are not extraterrestrial?Copy !req
632. Mulder, everything
this man described—Copy !req
633. you can't just guess
at these details.Copy !req
634. I'm sorry,
but the facts hereCopy !req
635. completely overwhelm
any argument against them.Copy !req
636. Facts overwhelmed by the lies
created to support them.Copy !req
637. Facts overwhelmed by the lies
created to support them.Copy !req
638. Mulder, the only lie here
is the oneCopy !req
639. that you continue to believe.Copy !req
640. After all I've seen
and experienced,Copy !req
641. I refuse to believe
that it's not true.Copy !req
642. Because it's easier
to believe the lie,Copy !req
643. isn't it?Copy !req
644. What the hell
did that guy say to youCopy !req
645. that you believe his story?Copy !req
646. He said that the men
behind this hoax,Copy !req
647. behind these lies,Copy !req
648. gave me this disease
to make you believe.Copy !req
649. gave me this disease
to make you believe.Copy !req
650. what we generally mean is,
of course, intelligent life,Copy !req
651. something resembling
our noble selves.Copy !req
652. It is highly probableCopy !req
653. that there are such
intelligent forms of lifeCopy !req
654. in other galaxies
in the universe.Copy !req
655. in other galaxies
in the universe.Copy !req
656. And it is even more probable
that many of these formsCopy !req
657. are vastly more intelligent
than we.Copy !req
658. I think there's no questionCopy !req
659. but that we live
in an inhabited universeCopy !req
660. that has life all over it.Copy !req
661. By finding outCopy !req
662. what the other planets are like,Copy !req
663. by finding out whether
there are civilizationsCopy !req
664. on planets of other stars,Copy !req
665. we reestablish a meaningful
context for ourselves.Copy !req
666. we reestablish a meaningful
context for ourselves.Copy !req
667. I don't think we should waitCopy !req
668. until the encounter occurs,Copy !req
669. but that we should do
all in our powerCopy !req
670. to prepare ourselves for it.Copy !req
671. I can conceive of no nightmare
as terrifyingCopy !req
672. as establishing
such communicationCopy !req
673. with a so-called superior
or, if you wish,Copy !req
674. advance technology
in outer space.Copy !req
675. Early this morning,
I got a call from the policeCopy !req
676. Early this morning,
I got a call from the policeCopy !req
677. asking me to come
to Agent Mulder's apartment.Copy !req
678. The detective asked me...Copy !req

680. Agent Scully...Copy !req
681. Agent Mulder died
late last nightCopy !req
682. Agent Mulder died
late last nightCopy !req
683. from an apparent self-inflicted
