AGENT BOZE: You're flying out of National. Your contact in Newark is Detective Norman.
MULDER: How'd I draw the assignment?
BOZE:Assistant Director Skinner made the request.
MULDER: Skinner requested me?"
DET. NORMAN: They say it cuts the smell if you don't breathe through your mouth.
MULDER: They lied.
NORMAN: Would you like us to turn the body over?
MULDER: No, I'll take your word on it.
NORMAN: Hey, Agent Mulder! What would you like us to do with the body?
MULDER: Wrap it up and send it to the FBI care of Assistant Director Skinner.
SKINNER: Is there a problem, Agent Mulder?
MULDER: Yeah, there is.
SKINNER: Then make an appointment.
MULDER: It's kinda hard to make an appointment when you're up to your ass in raw sewage being jerked from one meaningless assignment to another.
SKINNER: Excuse me?
MULDER: What's my next punishment? Scrubbing the bathroom floors with a toothbrush?
SKINNER: You're way out of line, Agent Mulder.
MULDER: So I gathered.
SCULLY: Is this seat taken?
MULDER: No, but I should warn you, I'm experiencing violent impulses.
SCULLY:Well, I'm armed, so I'll take my chances. I hear you really endeared yourself to Assistant Director Skinner today.
MULDER: You know sometimes it just gets hard to smile through it when they ask you to bend down and grab your ankles, you know?
MULDER: There's nothing to it.
SCULLY: There's a dead body, isn't there?"
Mr. X: You have a friend at the FBI.
MULDER: How big can these [flukeworm]things get?
SCULLY: (no response for a moment) Sorry. For a second there it felt like old times.
SCULLY: Apparently it had attached itself to the bile duct and was feeding off the liver."
MULDER: Lovely.
SCULLY: Believe it or not, something like 40 million people are infected worldwide.
MULDER:This isn't where you tell me some terrible story about sushi, is it?
SCULLY: Well, maybe you'd rather hear what you could catch from a nice rare steak?
MULDER: So, what...? The murder weapon was a top sirloin?
SCULLY: They are not creatures that go around attacking people.
MULDER: Well, that's good. I didn't want to have to tell Skinner that his murder suspect was a giant bloodsucking worm.
REED: Wouldn't surprise me. No telling what's been breeding down there in the past 100 years."
SCULLY: Platyhelminthes are often hermaphroditic. Mulder, this is amazing. Its vestigial features appear to be 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: Somebody shoved this under my door. I guess you really do have a friend in the FBI.
SCULLY: I want you to know that I'd consider it more than a professional loss if you decided to leave[the FBI]."
MULDER: This is not a man, it's a monster. You can't put it in an institution.
SKINNER: And what do you do with it, Agent Mulder? Put it in a zoo?
SKINNER: This should have been an X-File.
SKINNER: We all take our orders from someone, Agent Mulder.
Mr. X: Reinstatement of the X-Files must be undeniable.
SCULLY: Is this seat taken?
MULDER: No, but I should warn you I may reek a bit of the sewer.
SCULLY: I'll take my chances.
SCULLY: Mulder, nature didn't make this thing. We did...
MULDER: Three species disappear every day. Who knows how many new ones are being created?
