8-01manhunt.wav
SCULLY: What is this?! Excuse me. Can somebody please tell me what's going on here?
AGENT TDB: We're collecting material.
SCULLY: For?
AGENT TDB:For anything that might be pertinent to the manhunt.
SCULLY: What manhunt? Manhunt for who?
AGENT TDB:You're kidding, right?
SCULLY: Look, there's nothing. If you're looking for Mulder, you're wasting your time. Are you listening to me?
AGENT TDB: I'm not the man to talk to.
SCULLY: Well, then whose stupid idea is this?

8-01not_find.wav
SCULLY: There are agents tearing apart Mulder's office who say they're part of an FBI manhunt.
SKINNER: I know. I heard. Believe me, this is not my idea. I just found out about it myself.
SCULLY: They're not going to find Mulder this way. You know that and I know that.
SKINNER: I told you last night, I will find him. I'm going to do that. Okay? Now, I want you just to cool out. I don't want you doing anything to upset your pregnancy.
SCULLY: Look, I don't understand. You are the Assistant Director. Who is going over your head on this?
SKINNER: Our brand-new deputy director.

8-01suspects.wav
KERSH: This comes at a stressful time, with my new appointment. But I'm thankful for your cooperation in the hunt for Mulder.
SCULLY: Our cooperation? With due respect, there aren't two people better qualified to be directing this action, sir.
KERSH: Right now, you and A.D. Skinner are the two primary witnesses to Mulder's disappearance. I want your statement taken asap.
SCULLY: You make us out to be suspects, sir.

8-01doggett.wav
SKINNER: Taken by who?
KERSH: My task force leader on this, Special Agent John Doggett.

8-01new_jobs.wav
KERSH: Anything leaves this building about aliens or alien abductions or any other nonsense that might cast the Bureau in a ridiculous light-- hey, you can forget about looking for Agent Mulder. You'll both be looking for new jobs.

8-01covering.wav
SCULLY: I don't believe this.
SKINNER: This isn't about finding Mulder-- this is about Kersh covering the FBI's ass.
SCULLY: Why do I get the feeling they'd be happy if we never found him at all?

8-01hang_you.wav
SKINNER: Look... I saw what I saw. I have to makE a statement in there. I'm not going to tell them it didn't happen.
SCULLY: Well, you heard Kersh. They don't want the truth. You give them the truth, and they'll hang you with it.
SKINNER: They can hang me with a lie, too. I'm not going to sell Mulder out.
SCULLY: What good are you to Mulder if you give them the power to ruin your career?

8-01will_find.wav
SCULLY: We will find him.

8-01suspicion.wav
DOGGETT: Weren't you his partner? Mulder?
SCULLY: Yes.
DOGGETT: I guess nobody's beyond suspicion on this thing.

8-01profile.wav
SCULLY: Why are they talking to you?
DOGGETT: Me? I knew Mulder back a bit. They're developing a working profile-- character background.
SCULLY: I'd say they have all the character profile they need on him.
DOGGETT: Certainly his reputation. I doubt we agents ever really truly know each other even our partners. Not at the end of the day. Their real lives, their friends, girlfriends, deeply personal things, issues.
SCULLY: I think I know Mulder as much as anybody.
DOGGETT: Yeah, probably so.

8-01ambitious.wav
DOGGETT: I always took the rumors with a grain of salt.
SCULLY: What rumors are those?
DOGGETT: Well, you know. Well, that, from the beginning he never felt a real trust with you, that you were ambitious.
SCULLY: Where'd that come from?
DOGGETT: There are women here at the Bureau that he would confide in. I don't know if you knew that or not.
SCULLY: No. When was this?
DOGGETT: I don't know, it's just talk.

8-01theory.wav
DOGGETT: What do you think happened? To Mulder? What's your theory?
SCULLY: What's my theory? My theory is you don't know Mulder at all. You never did.

8-01john_doggett.wav
SCULLY: "John Doggett." Kersh's task force leader. You might have just introduced yourself.
DOGGETT: Well, I was getting around to it.
SCULLY: Nice to meet you, Agent Doggett.

8-01mom.wav
MRS SCULLY (voice on machine): Hi, this is Margaret Scully. Please leave a message. (Beep)
SCULLY: (on phone) Mom, it's Dana. I, uh... I'm sorry I haven't called you in a while. I've been busy with work and, um, with something ... else that I should probably tell you about in person. I mean, I don't even know if you're in town or if you're checking your messages. But, um... but I really need to see you and talk to you. There's a lot of stuff that's going on with me right now and, um... and I just really need to talk.
SCULLY: Mom?

8-01tapping.wav
DOGGETT: (on phone) John Doggett.
SCULLY: (on phone) You stay out of my business!
DOGGETT: (on phone) What? Who is this?
SCULLY: (on phone) You better have a court order!
DOGGETT: (on phone) For what? Who is this?
SCULLY: (on phone) How many phones are you tapping? How many agents are you doing surveillance on?
DOGGETT: (on phone) Is this Agent Scully?
SCULLY: (on phone) Thank you. You just answered all my questions.

8-01a_man.wav
SCULLY: Mr. Coeben, I'm sorry. There was a man. There was someone in the building. Did you see anyone?
MR COEBEN: Yeah, yeah, you know him, he works with you. Tall guy-- brown hair.
SCULLY: Who? You... You don't mean Mulder?
MR COEBEN: Yeah, Mulder.
SCULLY: Mulder? Are you in here?

8-01whistlestop.wav
FROHIKE: It took some serious voodoo.
LANGLY: Major satellite hacking.
BYERS: But we got your data.
SKINNER: What am I looking at?
BYERS: You're seeing real-time images right off the JPL Topex Poseidon.
FROHIKE: We're wired right into the dish.
BYERS: We're not able to find raw data with UFO activity on it.
FROHIKE: But Langly was able to hack into the data storage here and pull up something just as tasty.
BYERS: You're looking at UFO activity in the Pacific Northwest justprior to Mulder's abduction.
LANGLY: All these markers correspond with reported alien abductions.It's a regular shopping spree.
SKINNER: So Mulder's abduction...
FROHIKE: Was a UFO whistle stop on the way to the next pickup.

8-01activity.wav
SKINNER: Where? Where's the UFO activity after Mulder's abduction?
BYERS: Like we said, we can't tell. Not from the data we're pulling down.
SKINNER: Look, if we can figure out where that ship was going, where it was gonna be, we've got a chance to find Mulder.

8-01instincts.wav
KERSH: You fly, Agent Doggett?
DOGGETT: Flying is for birds and baseballs. USMC, sir.
KERSH: In Vietnam we used to fly night sorties ten feet above the treetops. Before night vision, before fly-by-wire. 600 miles an hour and all we had was an idiot gauge and our wits. Guys used to say they only knew their altitude by the smell of the V.C. rice pots.
DOGGETT: You've come a long way, sir.
KERSH: Using all the same instincts.

8-01birds.wav
DOGGETT: Flying is for birds and baseballs.

8-01wits.wav
KERSH: I think I'd know, Agent. What prompts the question?
DOGGETT: My idiot gauge. My wits.

8-01shine.wav
KERSH: You got a chance to shine here, John. Stand in the spotlight. Show them all you're an ace.

8-01nap.wav
SCULLY: What are you doing here?
DOGGETT: I could ask you the same.
SCULLY: I came by to feed Mulder's fish.
DOGGETT: And then you got tired and decided to take a nap.

8-01respect.wav
SCULLY: You've got a way about you, Agent Doggett. That might have worked with the NYPD but you're talking to a fellow FBI agent now and I'd appreciate some respect.
DOGGETT: Respect like you showed me over the phone? Give a little, get a little, Agent Scully.
SCULLY: Who ambushed me with the phony chitchat about Mulder and then put a wiretap on my phone?
DOGGETT: That's B.S.
SCULLY: And now you're following me.
DOGGETT: I just came by to feed the fish.

8-01look.wav
SCULLY: What do you want to get on me, Agent Doggett? What is it you hope to find?
DOGGETT: I'm just trying to find Mulder.
SCULLY: You wouldn't know where to look.

8-01wolf.wav
DOGGETT: I know the answer, Agent Scully.
SCULLY: I don't even know the question.
DOGGETT: What happened to Mulder? I know what you're gonna say or not because you think I'm the Big Bad wolf. Do you really believe it?
SCULLY: You think by talking in circles, I'm just going to get dizzy and-and blurt it out-- this so-called answer?
DOGGETT: That he was abducted by aliens?
SCULLY: You said it. I didn't.

8-01serious.wav
DOGGETT: I guess I just find it hard to swallow that a scientist, a serious person, could buy that. Ever see an alien, Agent Scully?
SCULLY: You want me to go on record? I will go on record to say this: that I have seen things that I cannot explain. I have observed phenomena that I cannot deny. And that as a scientist and a serious person it is a badge of honor not to dismiss these things because someone thinks they're B.S.
DOGGETT: So you think he was abducted?

8-01trying.wav
DOGGETT: I'm just trying to find him.
SCULLY: Then what are you doing here?

8-01didntknow.wav
DOGGETT: Where was he going?
SCULLY: I don't know.
DOGGETT: Like I said, maybe you really didn't know your partner.

8-01onlytruth.wav
SKINNER: Agent Mulder was only after the truth.

8-01dying.wav
SCULLY: Mulder was dying.

8-01wholelife.wav
DOGGETT: How well did you really know him? How far would Mulder go?
SCULLY: How far would he go for what?
DOGGETT: The truth-- his truth. Whatever it was he was trying to prove, how bad did he need to prove it?
SCULLY: It was his whole life.

8-01thetruth.wav
DOGGETT: How far would Mulder go?
SCULLY: How far would he go for what?
DOGGETT: The truth.

8-01lastchance.wav
SKINNER: What are you trying to say?
DOGGETT: That Agent Mulder found himself in a place none of us want to go. Life-threatened, work-threatened, and all for naught. Nothing proven. The effort in vain. No mark left. Unless he rolled the dice, took one big last chance to make it.

8-01obsession.wav
DOGGETT: I get Mulder, I get him. I understand obsession, believe me. But the question is: how far would he go? I mean, so far as to stage his own disappearance?
SKINNER: I know what I saw. I not going to sit here and listen to this. I watched it happen.

8-01gibson.wav
SCULLY: Why do people refuse to believe in aliens and UFOs after all these years of sightings and eyewitness accounts? Why?
FROHIKE: Because there's no real proof.
SCULLY: Because, maybe, if there are aliens they're simply going around and they're... and they're removing all of the evidence before it becomes proof. This isn't Mulder who's going around and collecting this stuff. It's them.
SKINNER: Then why Arizona?
SCULLY: Because they are looking to find that which is not in my computer or Mulder's computer or in the files that were removed from the FBI. They are looking to find the whereabouts of good, hard proof. That in this case exists in a person, in a boy named Gibson Praise.

8-01nothing.wav
SKINNER: What's out there?
SCULLY: Well, according to this map... a whole lot of nothing.

8-01doing.wav
DOGGETT: What are you doing here?
SCULLY: What are you doing here?
DOGGETT: Trying to find Mulder.

8-01mulder.wav
DOGGETT: Let the boy go! Let him go, Mulder!
