Skinner (au téléphone avec Mulder) : "There's always another way."
(Skinner raccroche)
The Cigarette-Smoking Man : "Yes, I believe there is… if you're willing to pay the price."

Scully (voix-off ; s'adressant à Mulder dans son journal) : "For the first time, I feel time like a heartbeat, the seconds pumping in my breast like a reckoning, the numinous mysteries that once seemed so distant and unreal threatening clarity in the presence of a truth entertained not in youth, but only in its passage. I feel these words as if their meaning were weight being lifted from me, knowing that you will read them and share my burden as I have come to trust no other. That you should know my heart, look into it, finding there the memory and experience that belong to you—that are you—is a comfort to me now as I feel the tethers loose and the prospects darken for the continuance of a journey that began not so long ago, and which began again with a faith shaken and strengthened by your convictions. If not for which I might never have been so strong now as I cross to face you and look at you, incomplete, hoping that you will forgive me for not making the rest of the journey with you."

Mulder : "The truth will save you, Scully. I think it'll save both of us."
