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.

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.

stupid, Agent Mulder. Don't turn this into a movie. Just tell me

DOGGETT: A cop sees things. A man drops five
stories, dusts his head off and goes back to work. An old lady
gets shot point-blank in a Chinese restaurant, plucks the slug
out of her egg foo yung. But even if Mulder survives this, what
he does then is too much. You got your point of impact there
where Agent Scully is standing... clear and identifiable. And a
set of tracks here leading down to the wash. Look at these
tracks. What do you see? Mulder was running.

Doggett. You don't compromise, you don't quit. You're a damned
good FBI agent-- best of the best. Lot of guys put you in the
Director's chair one day. Which is why you've been set up to
fail. There's no amount of search and rescue or rolling cordons
or eyes in the sky that are going to turn up Mulder. It's just
the wrong approach.
DOGGETT: It's not a question of approach. It's the
only approach I got.
SKINNER: The only way you're going to find Mulder is
to give into the truth. To listen to Scully. But even then... say
you did find him, even then you lose. You put anything about
aliens or UFOs or alien bounty hunters in your report... Kersh
will ruin you. I'm betting that was his plan.
