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.

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

Scully: Mulder, this is amazing! [looking at the flukeman] its vestigial features seem parasitic, but it has primate physiology. Where the hell did it come from?
Mulder: I don't know. But it looks like I'm gonna have to tell Skinner that his suspect is a giant bloodsucking worm after all.

Scully: Mulder, you're rushing me out of the room.
Mulder: No, I'm not.
Scully: You've got a girl coming over?
Mulder: What's a girl? No, I have... there's a movie I want to watch on TV. Sleep tight. See you in the morning.

Scully: Mulder, you're the only one I trust.
Mulder: Then you're gonna have to trust me.

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: 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.

Scully: Sucker!

Scully: Sure, fine, whatever.
About Mulder not telling Scully he was going to follow up a lead with Detective White.

Scully: Thanks for ditching me.
Mulder: I'm sorry, I, uh... I couldn't let you risk your life on this.
Scully: Did you find what you were looking for?
Mulder: No... no. But I found something I thought I'd lost.
Scully gives him a questioning look:
Mulder: Faith to keep looking.

Scully: The answers are there, you just have to know where to look.
Mulder: That's why they put the 'I' in FBI.

Scully: There's something up there, Mulder.
Mulder: Ooh, I've been saying that for years.

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.

Scully: Those were the most paranoid people I have ever met. I don't know how you could think that what they say is even remotely plausible.
Mulder: I think it's remotely plausible that someone might think you're hot.

Scully: Woman gets lonely. Sometimes she can't wait around for her man to be reincarnated.
