Sit down, they're still talking to Agent Scully. |
About what? |
They're asking her for a narrative. They want to know why she was in the wrong building. |
She was with me. |
You don't see what's going on here, do you? There's four hundred million dollars in damage to the city of Dallas. Lives have been lost. No suspects have been named. So the story being shaped is this could have been prevented. That the FBI didn't do its job. |
And they want to blame us? |
Agent Mulder we both know that if you and Agent Scully hadn't taken the initiative to search the adjacent building, you could have multiplied the fatalities by a hundred |
But it's not the lives we saved. It's the lives we didn't. |
if it looks bad, it's bad for the FBI |
if they want someone to blame, they can blame me. Agent Scully doesn't deserve this. |
She's in there right now saying the same thing about you. |
I breached protocol. I broke contact with the S.A.C. I ignored a primary tactical rule and left him alone with the device. |
Agent Scully says it was she who ordered you out of the building. That you wanted to go back. |
Agent Mulder |
Where's Scully?! |
She's missing. We've been unable to locate her or the vehicle they took her in. |
Whoever they are this goes right back to Dallas it goes right back to the bombing |
I know. Agent Scully reported your suspicions to OPR. On the basis of her report, I sent techs over to S.A.C. Michaud's apartment. They picked up PSTN residues on his personal effects consistent with the construction of the vending machine device in Dallas. |
How deep does this go? |
I don't know. |
Are we being watched? |
I'm not taking any chances. |
What are you doing? |
I've got to find Scully. |
We're going to the morgue. |
That area is currently off limits to anyone other than authorized medical personnel. |
On whose orders? |
General McAddie's. |
General McAddie is who requested our coming here. We were awakened at three AM and told to get down here immediately. |
I don't know anything about that. |
Well, call General McAddie. |
I don't have his number. |
They can patch you in through the switchboard. |
Why don't you go on ahead head and I'll confirm authorization. |
Thank you. |
Mulder it's me |
Where are you, Scully? |
I'm on the roof. |
Did you find something? |
No. I haven't. |
What's wrong, Scully? |
I've just climbed twelve floors. I'm hot and thirsty and I'm wondering, to be honest, what I'm doing here. |
You're looking for a bomb. |
I know that. But the threat was called in for the Federal Building across the street. |
I think they have that covered. |
Mulder... when a terrorist bomb threat is called in, the logical purpose of providing this information is to allow us to find the bomb. The rational object of terrorism is to promote terror. If you'd study model behavioral pattern in virtually every case where a threat has turned up an explosive device. If we don't act in accordance with that data if you ignore it as we have done the chances are great that if here actually is a bomb we might not find it. Lives could be lost |
Mulder...? |
What happened to playing a hunch? |
Jesus, Mulder... |
The element of surprise, Scully. Random acts of unpredictability. If we fail to anticipate the unforeseen or expect the unexpected in a universe of infinite possibilities, we find ourselves at the mercy of anyone or anything that cannot be programmed, categorized or easily referenced... |
I know you're bored in this assignment, but unconventional thinking is only going to get you into trouble now. |
How's that? |
You've got to quit looking for what isn't there. They've closed the XFiles. There's procedure to be followed here. Protocol. |
What do you say we call in a bomb threat for Houston. I think it's free beer night at the Astrodome. |
Now what? |
It's locked? |
Had you. |
No you didn't. |
Oh yeah. Had you big time. |
I saw your face, Mulder. There was a moment of panic. |
Panic? Have you ever seen me panic, Scully? |
I just did. You're buying. |
Alright... what'll it be: Coke, Pepsi? A saline IV? |
Something sweet. |
Scully... |
Scully, I found the bomb. |
Where are you, Mulder? |
I'm in the vending room. |
Scully, get somebody to open this door. |
Nice try, Mulder. |
Mulder? Tell me this is a joke. |
Thirteen fifty nine, thirteen fifty eight, thirteen fifty seven... |
...thirteen fifty six... |
Hang on. I'm gonna get you out of there. |
Scully? |
Mulder. Move away from the door. We're coming through it. |
Something's not right... |
Mulder! Get in the car! |
Whatever you told them in there, you don't have to protect me. |
All I told them was the truth. |
They're trying to divide us on this, Scully. We can't let them. |
They have divided us, Mulder. They're splitting us up. |
What? What are you talking about? |
I meet with the OPR day after tomorrow for remediation and reassignment... |
Why? |
I think you must have an idea. They cited a history of problems relating back to 1993. |
They were the ones that put us together. |
Because they wanted me to invalidate your work, your investigations into the paranormal. But I think this goes deeper than that. |
This isn't about you, Scully. They're doing this to me. |
They're not doing this, Mulder. I left behind a career in medicine because I thought I might make a difference at the FBI. When they recruited me they told me women made up nine percent of the bureau. I felt this was not an impediment, but an opportunity to distinguish myself. But it hasn't turned out that way. And now, if I were to be transferred to Omaha, or Wichita or some field office where I'm sure I could rise, it just doesn't hold the interest for me it once did. Not after what I've seen and done. |
You're... quitting? |
There's really no reason left for me to stay anymore. Maybe you should ask yourself if your heart's still in it, too. |
I wake you? |
No. |
Why not? It's three AM. |
Are you drunk, Mulder? |
I was until about an hour ago. |
Is that before or after you got the idea to come here? |
What are you implying, Scully? |
I thought you may have gotten drunk and decided to come here to talk me out of quitting. |
