Quotes 

• [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 : These are questions we have no business asking!

• 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?

• Scully : I don't get it Mulder. Does this have something to do with an X-File? I thought you only liked those paranormal type cases. Am I missing something here?

  Mulder : Let's just say, this case has a distinct smell to it, a certain... paranormal bouquet.

• 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.

• Mulder : I think they re-wired that man's brain. Some kind of selective memory drain.

  Scully : The brain doesn't work like that, Mulder. You can't just go in and erase certain files.
