The X-Files

The Bible says God appeared to Moses in the burning bush.

He came to Jesus on a mountaintop.

For Buddha, God came while he sat under a tree.

God came to me in a vision in the desert, February 26, 1991.

God!

My recon squad had engaged Saddam's army in a small Bedouin encampment.

We'd been ambushed, taken on by surprise. And there were casualties.

- I can't feel my legs! - You're gonna be OK.

Damn it, get on the radio! We need some help here!

Zulu six-two, we are under attack. Repeat: we are under attack.

We are taking heavy machine-gun fire.

We were holding our perimeter, and we might have held up,

but on this day I had a terrible sense of foreboding.

I saw the future of those brave men,

and they were about to die.

Death came to take my men,

but not me.

I was left as a witness to a vision.

Angels... from heaven.

"Behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, and a brightness was about it."

"And out of the midst came the likeness of four living creatures."

"And they had the likeness of a man."

I knew why my life had been spared.

I was to deliver the message of these angels, of these sons of God.

To deliver the message of the god who came before all other gods.

At seven o'clock this evening, in a Washington, DC alley,

the vehicle carrying the son of Agent Dana Scully

was forced to a stop by a female shooter, who proceeded to kidnap the child at gunpoint.

The van was being driven by three men, asked by Agent Scully to protect the child.

The three men are currently working to ID the assailant.

John Doggett was seriously injured by the same female shooter

as he tried to halt her vehicle.

Agent Doggett remains in a coma, under close watch at St Mary's Hospital.

This kidnapping follows a failed attack on Scully's child

by another FBI agent, Robert Comer.

He remains in critical condition, also at St Mary's.

Now, this man's motives, and the motives of the female kidnapper, are still unknown.

Let me emphasise that the FBI has no reason to believe

that it cannot effect the safe return of Agent Scully's child.

Agent Scully.

- I told you you didn't need to be here. - I just had to see this for myself.

- Go home. - To what?

I'm just saying, you don't need to put yourself through this.

We've got every stop pulled, every available agent working to find your son.

And AD Brad Follmer leading the charge.

Kersh asked him. He knows how to run a task force. You see that in there.

I see a man who withholds information for Kersh,

a man who not once but twice failed to prevent an attack on my son.

You see a task force in there. I see a whitewash.

I know you're upset,

but you can't possibly accuse Follmer or Kersh of having any part in this.

What is it gonna take for you?

How many people have to be taken out for you to open your eyes to it?

My son. Agent Doggett.

Mulder.

Kersh protected you by not telling you of Mulder's death, as did Follmer - as did I.

You call it protection.

I call it a systematic effort inside the FBI to eliminate us.

You accuse anyone of anything in the FBI, you have to accuse me along with them.

- Scully, where are you going? - To find my son.

- Hi. - Hi.

His hands are so cold.

Have you talked to the doctors yet?

They say the good news is that there's no swelling of the brain.

But they were very frank that he could just never wake up.

I wonder if he can hear us.

There'd be soldiers in Vietnam...

bodies turned inside out.

I'd hold their hands just like you're doing.

Tell them it was gonna be OK.

Do you think it helped?

Talking to them?

I always thought it was like... like praying.

Even if they can't hear, maybe... God can.

- Hello? - How's he doing?

No change.

I need to see you right away, Monica. Are you alone right now?

Skinner's here with me.

I'd prefer if Skinner didn't know.

- We found her. - Who?

The woman that took William.

She's a wanted felon, and part of the UFO cult that the FBI was investigating.

I need anything that you can find on her, Monica, but I need you to get it quietly.

Access denied?! Yeah, we'll see about that.

If they lD'd the woman, why isn't the FBI investigating it?

I asked them not to tell the FBI.

- What are you doing, Dana? - I'm trying to get my son back.

- (bleeping) - (Frohike) We're baked on.

Like there was ever a doubt.

Which brings us closer to finding William. Langly's inside the system.

I'm hacked inside the phone company. I'll use their mainframe to scan for a locator signal.

Before William was kidnapped, Byers tucked a cellphone under the baby's car seat.

Call the phone, and Langly can use the signal to find its location and find the baby.

Assuming the kidnapper hasn't found the phone.

We'll keep trying.

This is madness, and you know it. They failed you once, they're gonna fail you again.

- Then I'll find him myself. - Not alone.

Look, what alternative do I have,

when the FBI is all but telling me they think that my son is already dead?

We've got a signal. In Warfordsburg, Pennsylvania, off the interstate.

You coming with me? Or am I going alone?

- Have you got him? - (woman) Yes. He's safe. We're here.

We need to go carefully now. I want you to stay where you are.

- I'm sending someone to get you, all right? - Yes.

It's moving!

Can you hear me?

I need some tools. Go get some tools!

Come on, move it!

Federal agent!

John Doggett, where is he? He's not in his bed.

They've taken him to Radiology to run a CAT scan.

- Would you like me to call his doctor? - No, I was just worried. I'm sorry.

- What? - Nothing.

I've known you a long time, and this just seems a little traditional for you.

Maybe when you're lost you knock at the door with the porch light on.

Hey, hey.

I want you to know, I'm doing all I can to find the woman who did this.

Even though we've got people inside the FBI working against us.

That was foolish, going after her by yourselves.

We could have been there before you, even captured the suspect. Instead she got away.

- This is complicated. If you came to bust... - No. No.

I came here to ask for your cooperation.

Not sharing information creates an atmosphere of distrust.

Then I'm less apt to share my information with you.

What haven't you shared with me?

This FBI agent who tried to kill Scully's baby has come around.

He's got something he wants to tell us.

What?

I need your cooperation.

You said he tried to tell you something. How was that possible?

He didn't tell me, exactly. He wrote it down.

I don't know what this means.

I don't know either. But it means something, and I want to know what.

- Just tell me where you got this. - You know what it means?

Robert Comer wrote this, didn't he?

The FBI agent who tried to kill my son. And how did you get it?

I got it under the condition that I share what I learn from you.

- Take it. - What is it? What does it mean?

If I don't tell you, you're good on your word, right?

That means that you've learnt absolutely nothing from me.

- Where are you going? - To the hospital.

It doesn't work that way.

This began when the agent lying in that hospital crashed his motorcycle.

Somehow he got to Washington without a scratch and he tried to kill my son.

Now, tell me, how did he do that, Monica?

With something I found in his jacket pocket,

in a jacket that he wore to my house, that I put three shots in.

The artefact. The piece of the ship.

- Let go. - Oh, my God.

Let go of my hand.

Turn off the monitors or they're gonna alert somebody.

Now, tell me, who sent you to kill my son?

Or I will take that pillow from under your head and make them the last breaths that you take.

Your son has to die.

Not what you think. Please.

Please.

The FBI sent me undercover on a man named Josepho, to get inside his cult,

whose followers believe an alien race will rule the world.

One day, God told Josepho to lead us 1,000 miles north

to find a ship buried in the ground.

You have a piece of that ship in your hand.

Josepho believes that that ship is a temple housing the physical manifestation of God.

Are you saying that God asked you to kill my child?

No.

Josepho said God spoke to him of a miracle child,

a future saviour, coveted by forces of good and evil.

- Josepho believes your son is this child. - Why does he want to kill him?

He doesn't. He wants to protect him.

Josepho believes your son will follow in his father's paths

and try to stop the aliens' return...

unless his father was to be killed.

That is the prophecy.

You came here to kill her son, against this man and his cult? To stop them?

Are you saying you believe this prophecy but acted alone?

What he's saying... is that Mulder is dead.

That that's true.

That they killed him to fulfil this prophecy.
