Quotes
-
John Doggett : Dead men don't tip, Agent Scully.
-
John Doggett : I try to keep an open mind, but it tends to shut my eyes.

[last lines]
John Doggett : You going to be okay, Agent Scully? I got a drift of what happened in there... to you. I mean... sort of.
Dana Scully : [her voice breaks] I shot a young boy.
John Doggett : The good news is, you're wrong.
Dana Scully : But it's what I saw. With my eyes anyway. Do you know what it's like not to be able to trust your own eyes?
John Doggett : Then why'd you shoot him?
Dana Scully : Because it's what the boy saw. And in an instant I realized that it's what Mulder would have seen or understood.
[she starts to cry]
Dana Scully : Because that's just how he came at things... without judgment and without prejudice and with an open mind that I am just not capable of.
John Doggett : It's been a long night. Give yourself a break.
[Scully sighs]
John Doggett : This whole thing doesn't make any sense.
Dana Scully : No... it did. In some way... it did.

John Doggett : Things that land in your in-box, huh, Agent Scully?
Dana Scully : Good morning. I'm sorry I'm late. I didn't get a chance to look at the case file. The traffic's terrible.
John Doggett : Beltway's a nightmare. Takes longer to get crosstown than it does a plane ride from India, which is where our victim flew in from last night. Bombay.
Dana Scully : Who are we talking about?
John Doggett : Hugh Potocki. Importer/exporter from Minneapolis. Laid over in DC on his way home when all this blood drains from his body.
Dana Scully : Did the M.E. see it? The body?
John Doggett : Yeah. Tox test ruled out hemorrhagic fever, ebola, anything exotic. Something killed this man but it doesn't seem to be any foreign disease.
Dana Scully : No sign of forced entry?
John Doggett : No. No one was seen coming or going from this room. The maid found the body 20 minutes after a bellman left Mr. Potocki here. Whatever happened, happened fast.
Dana Scully : So basically what you're saying is that nobody knows anything.
John Doggett : But then I guess that's why it's in your in-box.
[teasingly]
John Doggett : So what do you think, Agent Scully? Haunted hotel room? Alien invaders? Sloppy vampires?
