Season 1

Pilot

Third Man: Are you familiar with an agent named Fox Mulder ?
Scully : Yes, I am.
Third 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.



Section Chief Blevins: "Are you familiar with the so-called X-Files?"
Scully : "I believe they have to do with unexplained phenomena."
Section Chief 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 activities 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?"
Section Chief Blevins: "Agent Scully, we trust you'll make the proper scientific analysis."



Scully knocks at the door to Mulder's office
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."



Mulder : "Do you believe in the existence of extraterrestrials?"
Scully : "Logically I would have to say no. Given the distances need to travel from the of reaches of space the energy requirements would exceed a spacecraft's capabilities —"
Mulder: "Conventional wisdom..."



Mulder : ... in most of my work, the laws of physics rarely seems to apply.



Section Chief Blevins: "Agent Mulder. What are his thoughts?"
Scully : "Agent Mulder believes we are not alone."



1x01 Deep Throat

Scully : "So?"
Mulder : "So you and I are going to the Spud State to investigate a little kidnapping."
Scully: "I don't get it Mulder. Does this have something to do with an X-File? I thought you only liked those... uh... 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."



Deep Throat: Leave this case alone, Agent Mulder.
Mulder : What?
Deep Throat: The military will not tolerate an FBI investigation.
Mulder: Who are you?
Deep Throat: I, er, can be of help to you. I've had a certain interest in your work.
Mulder: How do you know about my work?
Deep Throat: Well, let's just say that I'm in a position to know quite a lot of things, er, things about our government.
Mulder: Who are you? Who do you work for?
Deep Throat: It's unimportant, I came here to give you some valuable advice. You are exposing yourself and Agent Scully to unnecessary risk, I advise you to drop the case.
Mulder: I can't do that.
Deep Throat: You have much work to do, Agent Mulder, don't jeopardise the future of your own efforts.



MIB: [tapping on window] "Please, step out of the car."
Mulder to Scully : "You think if maybe we ignore him, he'll go away?"
MIB: [tapping on window] "Please, step out of the car."
Mulder to Scully: "Guess not."



Deep Throat: "Mister Mulder, why are those like yourself, who believe in the existence of extraterrestrial life on Earth, not entirely persuaded by all the evidence to the contrary?"
Mulder : "Because, all the evidence to the contrary is not entirely dissuasive."
Deep Throat: "Precisely."
Mulder: They're here aren't they?
Deep Throat: Agent Mulder, they've been here for a long, long time.



1x02 Squeeze

Scully : "This looks like an X-File."
Agent Colton: "Let's not get carried away. I'm going to solve these murders, but what I would like from you is to go over the case histories, maybe come down to the crime scene."
Scully: "Do you want me to ask Mulder?"
Agent Colton: "Okay, if he wants to come and do you a favour, great. But make sure he knows this is my case. Dana, if I can break a case like this one, I'll be getting my bump up the ladder. And you, maybe you won't have to be Mrs Spooky any more."



Mulder : "Why would I make them so uncomfortable?"
Scully : "It probably has to do with your reputation."
Mulder: "Reputation? I have a reputation?"
Scully: "Mulder look, Colton plays by the book and you don't. They feel your methods, your theories are..."
Mulder: "Spooky? Do you find me spooky?"



Agent Colton: "So Mulder, what do you think? Does this look like the work of little green men?"
Mulder : "Grey."
Agent Colton: "Excuse me?"
Mulder: "Grey. You said green men. A Reticulan's skin tone is actually grey. They're notorious for their extraction of terrestrial human livers. Due to iron depletion in the Reticulan galaxy."
Agent Colton: "You can't be serious."
Mulder: "Do you have any idea what liver and onions go for on Reticula?"



Scully : "Mulder they don't want you involved, they don't want to hear your theories. That's why Blevin's has you hidden away down here."
Mulder : "You're down here, too."



Scully : "Oh my god, Mulder. It smells like... I think it's bile."
Mulder : "Is there any way I can get it off my fingers quickly without betraying my cool exterior?"



Scully : "Is this what it takes to climb the ladder, Colton?"
Agent Colton: "All the way to the top."
Scully: "Then I can't wait 'til you fall off and land on your ass."



1x03 Conduit

Scully : I just think it's a good idea not to antagonise local law enforcement.
Mulder : Who me? I'm Mr. Congeniality.
Scully: You never know, we might need his help one of these days.
Mulder: I'll send him a bundt cake.



Mulder : Hey, that's a nice tattoo, what is that?
Bartender: What's it look like?
Mulder: Flying saucer. You don't really believe in that stuff, do ya?
Bartender: I take it you don't.
Mulder: No, I think it's all just a bunch of crazy people howling at the moon.



Mulder : "Great."
Scully : "What?"
Mulder: "You shouldn't have told them. They have no jurisdiction."
Scully: "Mulder... They're NSA. They think the boy may be a threat to national security."
Mulder: "Come on. How could an eight year old boy, who can barely multiply, be a threat to national security? And people call me paranoid."



Mulder : "I know I should be afraid, but I'm not."
Dr Werber: "Do you know why?"
Mulder: "Because of the voice... The voice in my head."
Dr Werber: "What's it telling you?"
Mulder: "Not to be afraid. It's telling me that no harm will come to her and that one day she'll return."
Dr Werber: "Do you believe the voice?"
Mulder: "I want to believe."



1x04 The Jersey Devil

Scully : "Mulder, it's the same story I've heard since I was a kid. It's a folk tale, a myth."
Mulder : "I heard the same story when I was a kid too. Funny thing is I believed it. Fact is we've got a cannibalised body in New Jersey. Someone or something out there is hungry."



Ellen: "What about that guy you work with?"
Scully : "Mulder?"
Ellen: "I thought you said he was cute."
Scully: "He's a jerk. He's not a jerk. He's, um... he's obsessed with his work."



Mulder : What if it is a female, Scully? How close is she to you or me? Does she feel emotion? Or are her days just spent looking for food?
Scully : Maybe, she spends her day shopping.
Mulder: Eight million years out of Africa, I don't think we're all that different.
Scully: Mulder, we've put men into space, we've built computers that work faster than the human mind.
Mulder: While we over-populate the world and create new technologies to kill each other with. Maybe we're just beasts with big brains.



Mulder : "Who was that on the phone?"
Scully : "A guy."
Mulder: "A guy. Same guy as the guy you had dinner with the other night?"
Scully: "Same guy."
Mulder: "You going to have dinner with him again?"
Scully: "I don't think so."
Mulder: "No interest?"
Scully: "Not at this time."
Mulder: [walking to the door] "What are you doing?"
Scully: "Going with you to the Smithsonian."
Mulder:"Don't you have a life Scully?"
Scully: "Keep it up Mulder and I'll hurt you like that beast woman."
Mulder: "Eight million years out of Africa..."
Scully: [holding door open for him] "And look who's holding the door."
