Quotes 

• Fox Mulder : Bambi also has this theory I've never come acro...

  Dana Scully : Who?

  Fox Mulder : Dr. Berenbaum. Anyway, her theory is...

  Dana Scully : Her name is Bambi?

  Fox Mulder : Yeah. Both her parents were naturalists. Her theory is that UFOs are actually nocturnal insect swarms passing through electrical air fields.

  Dana Scully : Her name is Bambi?

• Mulder : I think you'd better get up here.

  Scully : What happened?

  Mulder : It appears that cockroaches are mortally attacking people.

  Scully : I'm not going to ask you if you just said what I think you just said, because I know it's what you just said.

• Dana Scully : Let me guess... Bambi.

  Dr. Bambi Berenbaum : Fox told me to wait out here while he checked inside first.

  [Scully mouths "Fox" snobbily] 

  Dr. Bambi Berenbaum : Can I come along with you?

  Dana Scully : [nonchalantly reloading her pistol]  No. This is no place for an entomologist.

• Dana Scully : Smart is sexy.

  [Mulder gives her a look] 

  Dana Scully : Look at it this way, Mulder, by the time there's another invasion of artificially intelligent, dung-eating, robotic probes from outer space, maybe their über-children will have devised a way to save our planet.

  Fox Mulder : You know, I never thought I'd say this to you, Scully, but you smell bad.

• Mulder : Scully, can I confess something to you?

  Scully : Yeah, sure, okay.

  Mulder : I hate insects.

  Scully : You know, lots of people are afraid of insects, Mulder. It's just a... it's natural, instinctive.

  Mulder : No, no, I'm not afraid of them. I *hate* them. One day back when I was a kid, I, uh... I was climbing this tree when I noticed this leaf walking towards me. It took forever for me to realize that it was no leaf.

  Scully : A praying mantis?

  Mulder : Yeah, I had a praying mantis epiphany, and as a result I screamed. No, not... not a girly scream, but the scream of someone being confronted by some before unknown monster that had no right existing on the same planet I inhabited.

  Scully : Mulder... are you sure it wasn't a girly scream?

• Scully : I'm not going to ask if you just said what I think you just said, because I know it's what you said.

• Scully : Did you know the inventor of the flush toilet was named Thomas Crapper?
