Scene 01

Somerset, West Virginia · The Snowfield

(wind howling)

(lively music playing on radio)

(radio chatter warbling)

(dog barking)

FBI Agent

Keep it straight! Come on, straight!

(woman chattering on radio)

FBI Agent

Stay together! Keep it tight!

(dog continues barking)

Dakota Whitney

Give him room! Hold the line, gentlemen! Look left! Look right! Hold the line!

Father Joe

It's here. It's here. Hey! Calm down, buddy! Hey!

Scene 02

Somerset · The Garage

Dakota Whitney

Let him go! Let him go! Let him go! Let him go! Let him go!

(panting)

Dakota Whitney

Easy, easy. Let him go! Let him go! Let him go!

Father Joe

No! Here! Here! It's here!

(agents clamoring)

Father Joe

It's here!

Scene 03

Our Lady of Sorrows Hospital · Conference Room

Consulting Doctor

I've gone over the charts you've sent and consulted another pediatric neurologist who works with me here. We're alarmed by two things. The deficiency in lipid metabolism and the severely diminished enzyme output. Right. That's exactly right. Both indicate lysosomal storage illness. You're the boy's primary physician, doctor...

Dana Scully

Scully. Dana Scully.

Consulting Doctor

And you tested his lysosome function?

Dana Scully

I think you have all my results there, doctor. My fear is that it's a type-two degenerative brain disease like Sandhoff disease, that his enzymes aren't clearing the lipids from his brain, causing atrophy.

Consulting Doctor

If you suspect Sandhoff disease, I'd test the boy's levels of hexosaminidase.

Dana Scully

I've done that. What I'm looking for here, doctor, is a course of treatment.

Consulting Doctor

There is no treatment for Sandhoff.

Dana Scully

But if there were, I'm sure you'd tell me. Hi, Christian, how are you feeling?

Christian Fearon

Okay, Dr. Scully. How are you?

Scene 04

Our Lady of Sorrows · Christian's Room

Dana Scully

Me? Well, I'm doing just fine, thank you.

Blair Fearon

You got some outside opinions?

Dana Scully

Yes. We're gonna do some more tests.

Scene 05

Our Lady of Sorrows · Corridor

Mosley Drummy

Dana Scully? Dr. Scully, I'm looking for Fox Mulder.

Dana Scully

Excuse me. Special agent Drummy with... I can guess who you're with.

Mosley Drummy

The FBI urgently needs to speak with Fox Mulder.

Dana Scully

I don't work with Fox Mulder any longer. I don't work with the FBI.

Mosley Drummy

Well, if you could contact him, it might just save the life of an FBI agent.

Scene 06

Mulder and Scully's House · Mulder's Office

Fox Mulder

What's up, doc?

Dana Scully

You've become awfully trusting, Mulder. For a man wanted by the FBI.

Fox Mulder

Eyes in the back of my head, Scully. "auf einer wellenlange," as the germans say. It's a precognitive state often confused with simple human intuition, in which the brain perceives the deep logic underlying transitory human existence, unaided by the conscious mind, materializing much as you did just now. Though, if you'd actually materialized, you'd be rapidly dematerializing. But who believes that crap anymore?

Dana Scully

Well, they do at the FBI, apparently. I had a visitor today, Mulder. The FBI wants your help finding a missing agent.

Fox Mulder

Well, I hope you told them to go screw themselves. They say all is forgiven.

Dana Scully

That they'll drop all charges against you if you come in and help them solve this case. The FBI will forgive me?

Fox Mulder

They put me on trial on bogus charges and tried to discredit a decade of my work. They should be asking me for my forgiveness, Scully.

Dana Scully

I think they are. Desperately.

Fox Mulder

How can I possibly help these people?

Dana Scully

Someone's come forward with some promising evidence.

Fox Mulder

A psychic, he claims. Oh. It's a trick, Scully, to smoke me out.

Dana Scully

Mulder, if the FBI wanted to get you, I have no doubt that they could. I think they've just been happy to have you out of their hair.

Fox Mulder

Well, good. Because I am just as happy having them out of mine.

Dana Scully

A young agent's life is at stake. Mulder, I know I don't have to say this, but it could have been you once.

Fox Mulder

Or me.

Dana Scully

You know, the truth is, I worry about you and the effects of long-term isolation.

Fox Mulder

(chuckling) I'm fine here. I'm happy as a clam.

Dana Scully

I'll tell them your answer.

Fox Mulder

Shit.

Scene 07

Mulder and Scully's House

Fox Mulder

Okay, I'll go. Under one condition.

(sighs)

(helicopter whirring)

Scene 08

FBI Headquarters · Outside

Fox Mulder

Thanks for the lift.

Mosley Drummy

Don't thank me. I didn't send it. Wait here.

Scene 09

FBI Headquarters · Hallway

Dakota Whitney

Come in.

Mosley Drummy

Excuse me. They're here.

Scene 10

FBI Headquarters · Conference Room

Dakota Whitney

Thanks for making this happen. I'm special agent in charge Whitney. Dana Scully. Fox Mulder, I believe?

Dana Scully

I know this is awkward, but welcome back.

Dakota Whitney

My team and I appreciate your trust.

Fox Mulder

Well, trust being what it is, what if I can't help you? Or your agent turns up dead?

Dakota Whitney

The past is the past. I know your work on X-Files cases here and believe you may be the best chance Monica Bannan has now. How long has she been missing? Since Sunday evening. Almost three days.

Dana Scully

I know you know this, but after 72 hours, there's slim chance that she's still alive.

Fox Mulder

We have slim reason to believe she is. But so far, we've got no evidence to the contrary, and the facts give us hope.

Dakota Whitney

Soon after she goes missing, we find this, a severed arm. Where? About 10 Miles from her home.

Dana Scully

I don't understand. It's a man's arm.

Fox Mulder

It's a match for evidence found at or near the crime scene. Blood or tissue?

Dakota Whitney

Blood. Found in her garage and on the tool that matches the wound.

Fox Mulder

I take it you were led to it.

Dakota Whitney

Like a needle in a haystack.

Fox Mulder

By someone claiming psychic powers.

Dakota Whitney

Joseph fitzpatrick Crissman.

Dana Scully

And you think he's full of shit.

Mosley Drummy

What makes you say that?

Fox Mulder

Psychic.

Mosley Drummy

Father Joe was...

Dana Scully

Father?

Mosley Drummy

He was a priest? Catholic. He cold-called six hours after Monica Bannan was reported missing, claiming a vision of her. A psychic connection.

Fox Mulder

And he tells you she's alive?

Mosley Drummy

That's right.

Fox Mulder

Have you found any other connection?

Mosley Drummy

To Monica Bannan? No. That's why I sent for you.

Dakota Whitney

I need to know we're not wasting time.

Fox Mulder

Well, he's a religious man, clearly educated man. He took right action, said nothing to cast doubt upon himself,

Dakota Whitney

Has no material connection to the crime.

Fox Mulder

You are wasting time, only it's mine and your agents'.

Dakota Whitney

There's a question of credibility.

Fox Mulder

If you have no reason to doubt the man, why doubt the man's visions?

Mosley Drummy

He didn't lead us to Monica Bannan. He gave us a guy's bloody arm in the snow.

Fox Mulder

This is not an exact science. If it were me, I'd be on the guy 24/7. I'd be in bed with him, kissing his holy ass.

Dakota Whitney

(clears throat) Father Joe's a convicted pedophile.

Fox Mulder

Maybe I'd stay out of bed with him. What is this?

Scene 11

Richmond · Residential Complex

Mosley Drummy

Dorms for habitual sex offenders.

Dana Scully

Dorms?

Mosley Drummy

They manage the complex and police themselves. Father Joe lives here voluntarily with his roommate.

Fox Mulder

Just avoid the activities room.

(knocking on door)

Scene 12

Father Joe's Apartment · Outside

Man

Joe?

Father Joe

Tell them to come in.

(movin' on up playing)

Television

♪ fish don't fry in the kitchen ♪ beans don't burn on the grill ♪ took a whole lotta trying just to get up that hill

Scene 13

Father Joe's Apartment

Mosley Drummy

Father Joe?

Television

♪ now we're up in the big leagues getting our turn at bat ♪ as long as we live, it's you and me baby

Father Joe

Excuse the mess. I haven't been sleeping.

Television

♪ there ain't nothing wrong with that... ♪

Mosley Drummy

Father Joe, this is Fox Mulder. Okay. He'd like to ask some questions.

Dana Scully

Actually, I'd like to ask something. What was it you were praying for in there, sir?

Father Joe

For the salvation of my immortal soul.

Dana Scully

And do you think God hears your prayers?

Father Joe

Do you think he hears yours?

Dana Scully

I didn't bugger 37 altar boys.

Father Joe

Oh. That's a colorful way of putting it.

Dana Scully

I have another word, if you'd like.

Fox Mulder

I'm sure you do.

Father Joe

I have to believe he does hear me,

Dana Scully

Or why would he send these visions? Maybe it's not God doing the sending.

Fox Mulder

You call them visions. You see them?

Father Joe

In what you might call my mind's eye. What do you see?

(sighs)

Father Joe

I see the poor girl being assaulted. I see her putting up a fight. I hear dogs barking.

Fox Mulder

Where?

Father Joe

Can't tell.

Fox Mulder

But you see her alive.

Father Joe

No, but I... I feel that she is.

Dana Scully

Can you show us how you do it?

(coughs)

Father Joe

I don't know that I can do this right now. Maybe it'd be better if she wasn't here.

Dana Scully

Maybe what you see is a way to try and make people forget what it is that you really are.

(door opening)

Scene 14

Father Joe's Apartment · Outside

Dana Scully

Jesus, Mulder.

Fox Mulder

So much for kissing his holy ass.

Dana Scully

I'm sorry. I've been too long away from this business, or not long enough.

Fox Mulder

No, you were good in there.

Dana Scully

All I had were questions.

Fox Mulder

But you pushed him, challenged him.

Dana Scully

Like old times. Yeah, well, he's a creep and a liar. He knows who did this, and they're supplying him with information.

Fox Mulder

I mean, look where he lives.

Dana Scully

And this arm they found?

Fox Mulder

This wasn't severed in any fight.

Dana Scully

It was cut cleanly, chopped off. And tell me how he's been able to lead them straight to it and not even muster a guess as to where the victim is. Two things you're gonna find in the next 24 hours, a dead agent, and that this guy

Fox Mulder

Father Joe is a big fat fraud. You could be right, Scully. You could be right.

(door opens)

Fox Mulder

But what if you're wrong?

Dana Scully

What are you doing?

Fox Mulder

Gonna take him for a ride. See just how psychic this Father Joe really is.

Dana Scully

Yeah, well, it's been fun.

Fox Mulder

Scully? Nobody's going to make you sit next to him.

Dana Scully

Thanks, but I've already been taken for a ride. Anyway, he doesn't want me there.

Fox Mulder

I want you here.

Dana Scully

This isn't my life anymore, Mulder. I'm done chasing monsters in the dark. I think you've done all they've asked of you here, too.

Fox Mulder

You know, no one says you have to stay here.

Dana Scully

These people need my help.

(scoffs)

Fox Mulder

And I could really use yours.

(sighs)

Scene 15

The FBI Convoy

Father Joe

Are we getting warm? You tell us. I don't know if I have a clue where we are. That's all right.

Fox Mulder

Everybody works differently.

Father Joe

What are you, the good cop?

Fox Mulder

I'm a non-cop.

Father Joe

I don't know this girl. This agent Bannan of yours, I haven't a clue the connection.

Fox Mulder

There's always something, however small.

Father Joe

And who made you the expert?

Fox Mulder

I once investigated a series of cases involving unexplained phenomena for the FBI.

Father Joe

So you believe in these sort of things?

Fox Mulder

Let's just say I want to believe.

Mosley Drummy

And his Sister was abducted by e.t.

Father Joe

Is that true?

Dakota Whitney

It was a long time ago.

Father Joe

She's dead, isn't she? Your Sister.

Scene 16

Somerset · Monica Bannan's House

Dakota Whitney

This is where she was taken. Your agent, this is where she was attacked.

Fox Mulder

I want him to see the crime scene.

Dakota Whitney

No, it's... This isn't right.

Father Joe

You've brought me to the wrong house.

Fox Mulder

Pulled that right out of his ass.

Scene 17

Somerset · Outside the Garage

Dakota Whitney

There were news crews out here covering the scene. Pictures of the neighborhood. He could have recognized it all from TV.

Fox Mulder

Yeah, but why? Why? Why do it? Why go to such great lengths to create such an elaborate fiction?

Mosley Drummy

Expiation. Forgiveness of his sins.

Dakota Whitney

He's written dozens of letters to the Vatican, pleading reengagement with the Church.

Fox Mulder

Rather odd way to impress the Holy See.

Dakota Whitney

Voice of God speaking through a man? I think that's been a winner a few times.

Fox Mulder

So you think he's guilty, too, huh?

Dakota Whitney

We have to consider him a suspect.

Fox Mulder

But you've found no connection to the crime.

Dakota Whitney

Don't think my guys have stopped looking. And they think they're gonna find one.

Fox Mulder

Yeah, but you don't, or I wouldn't be here.

Dakota Whitney

Yeah, I'm not the most popular girl at the FBI right now for calling you in, believe me. Yeah. I wasn't exactly miss popularity at the FBI myself.

Fox Mulder

But you've dealt with psychics before.

Dakota Whitney

Luther Lee Boggs, Clyde Bruckman, Gerald Schnauz. I went through those cases, and that work was extremely impressive.

Fox Mulder

Yeah, well, I'm only half the team.

Dakota Whitney

But it's your insights I need.

Scene 18

Somerset · The Snowfield

Father Joe

She ran away. She tried to escape. There were two men. But she couldn't. He pushed her down. It was here. It was right here. And then they put her in the back. Where? In the car. No. It was a truck, a truck with something on it, like a... We have to find her! She's in pain. Great, great pain. Tell me where! I don't know! I can't see!

Dakota Whitney

We need to find her!

Father Joe

(sobbing) I can't see! I can't see!

Mosley Drummy

'cause he's pulling it out of his ass.

Fox Mulder

Father Joe?

Scene 19

Our Lady of Sorrows · Christian's Room

Dana Scully

Hi, Christian. You're looking very bright-eyed this morning.

Christian Fearon

I was thinking.

Dana Scully

Yeah? What were you thinking?

Christian Fearon

How I'm going to get out of here.

Dana Scully

Well, you know, I'm thinking exactly the same thing.

Christian Fearon

Can I get out of here soon?

Dana Scully

What's wrong? Has something scared you?

Christian Fearon

The way the man is looking at me.

Dana Scully

What man? Don't be afraid.

Scene 20

Our Lady of Sorrows · Corridor

Dana Scully

I was just looking for those. I wanted to go over them myself

Father Ybarra

And the results of the new tests that you ordered. That isn't really your purview, father. It's his primary physician's. It is in my purview to make sure that all my physicians are making the right choices for their patients and for the hospital.

Dana Scully

Can I have the test results, please?

Father Ybarra

We are here to heal the sick, not prolong the ordeal of the dying. There are other, better facilities for the boy.

(clattering)

(splashing)

(engine revving)

(memories child playing on radio)

Dana Scully

Whoa!

Father Ybarra

Hey, hey. Hey!

Dana Scully

Ow!

(gasping weakly)

Dana Scully

I'm okay. I'm fine.

(screams)

(wheels spinning)

(wolves howling)

Scene 21

Mulder and Scully's Bedroom

Fox Mulder

I can feel you thinking. I'm sorry. I can't sleep.

Dana Scully

Actually, I have a little something for that. Just a little something?

Fox Mulder

Thank you. What's the matter?

(exhales)

Dana Scully

I have a patient, a young boy with a rare brain disease, and he's very, very sick.

Fox Mulder

Why haven't you told me about this before?

Dana Scully

I thought there was something I could do.

Fox Mulder

There's not?

Dana Scully

Well, there's radical treatments, but nobody wants to talk about those. Even the experts say there's nothing to be done.

Fox Mulder

Nothing but...

Dana Scully

Nothing but let him die.

(sighs)

Fox Mulder

So I'm lying here, cursing God for all his cruelties. And do you think God is losing any sleep?

Dana Scully

Why bring a kid into the world just to make him suffer? I don't know, Mulder. I've got such a connection to this boy.

Fox Mulder

How old is he?

Dana Scully

You think it's because of William.

Fox Mulder

I think our son left us both with an emptiness that can't be filled. Just go to sleep. Let me curse God for a while.

Dana Scully

Thank you. Scratchy beard.

(laughing)

Dana Scully

Oh...

Fox Mulder

Hmm?

Dana Scully

There was something weird on the toxicology report of the severed arm.

Fox Mulder

What?

Dana Scully

I looked over the FBI evidence reports again. And in the tissue there were traces of a drug that's commonly given to patients being treated with radiation.

Fox Mulder

Mmm-hmm.

Dana Scully

And also traces of a drug called acepromazine.

Fox Mulder

Why is that weird?

Dana Scully

Acepromazine is an animal tranquilizer.

(mulder sighs)

Fox Mulder

Now I can't sleep.

Dana Scully

Mulder?

Scene 22

Mulder and Scully's Bathroom

Fox Mulder

What is animal tranquilizer doing in the tissue sample

Dana Scully

Of a man's severed arm? I can't even begin to speculate.

Fox Mulder

He said he heard barking dogs.

Dana Scully

Who?

Fox Mulder

Father Joe.

Dana Scully

Mulder, what are you doing?

Fox Mulder

Is it a tranquilizer that you might give a dog?

Dana Scully

He's a phony, Mulder. He pulls these so-called visions out of thin air, and now he's got you straining to connect them.

Fox Mulder

When I see a man cry tears of blood at a crime scene he recognizes without ever having visited, I need to go out on a limb. You know what I'm saying? Tears of blood?

(cell phone ringing)

Fox Mulder

Yeah. Some trick, huh? How do you fake that?

Scene 23

Mulder and Scully's Bedroom

Dana Scully

Hello?

Mosley Drummy

Hello, Dr. Scully? Yes. I have Dakota Whitney for you.

Dana Scully

Can you hold on a second?

Dakota Whitney

I'm sorry to call at this hour.

Scene 24

The FBI Convoy · Night

Dana Scully

Has there been a break?

Fox Mulder

They find her?

Dakota Whitney

We're pursuing another lead. The same source? Same source, new news.

Father Joe

It's here. It's here. Turn up ahead, at the barn.

Dakota Whitney

One more time. Ten minutes!

Scene 25

Snowy Country Road

Dana Scully

Did you find her?

Dakota Whitney

No.

Dana Scully

What did you do?

Dakota Whitney

What?

Dana Scully

Oh. You said there was news.

Dakota Whitney

The news is our psychic led us to the exact same site he led us to before.

Scene 26

The Search Site

Father Joe

You're going to find it.

Mosley Drummy

That's what you keep saying.

Father Joe

You're going to find a body.

Mosley Drummy

You keep telling us she's alive. She is.

Fox Mulder

We could do this all night.

Dakota Whitney

These guys are all running on empty. I'm sorry for bringing you out here.

Mosley Drummy

Hey! Let's go, fellows!

Dakota Whitney

Bring it in! Let's go! Bring it in, gentlemen!

Mosley Drummy

Time to go home!

Scene 27

The Ice Field

Fox Mulder

Tell me. Tell me what you see.

Father Joe

I see a face. I see eyes staring out.

Fox Mulder

Who? Who is it?

Father Joe

It's unclear. Like through dirty glass.

Dakota Whitney

It's out there. I know it.

Fox Mulder

Scully, what does he mean, "like through dirty glass"?

Dana Scully

Mulder.

Fox Mulder

What?

Dana Scully

Stop.

Fox Mulder

Okay, just feel free to give up like everybody else.

Dana Scully

This is not my job anymore, Mulder.

Fox Mulder

No, that's right. That's right. You're just like my booking agent now, right?

Dana Scully

You're right. This is my fault.

Fox Mulder

(scoffs) what do you mean, it's your fault?

Dana Scully

For getting you involved in this.

Fox Mulder

No. No. It was the right thing to do, Scully. This is not about finding an FBI agent! This is about you trying to save your Sister. My Sister is dead.

Dana Scully

It hasn't stopped you from looking for her. Mulder, I have been through this too many years with you, believing you can save her. You cannot save her, not now, and not ever.

Fox Mulder

I'm going to need those men back!

Dana Scully

What are you doing?

Fox Mulder

I'm trying to ignore you.

Father Joe

This is it! Here it is!

Dana Scully

This is it.

Dakota Whitney

We need shovels.

Mosley Drummy

It's solid ice.

Father Joe

No. It's dirty glass.

Fox Mulder

Flashlight?

Father Joe

You're going to need resources.

Dakota Whitney

We need equipment! Concrete saws and a backhoe!

Mosley Drummy

You two get on the line. You two come with me.

Father Joe

Don't give up.

(dogs barking)

Scene 28

The Kennel

Cheryl Cunningham

(sobbing) please! Get me out of here! Help! Help! Let me out of here! (whispering) please, please, I won't tell. I won't tell anyone. I won't tell anyone. Just let me go. I just want to go home. I'm sorry I hit your truck. I didn't mean to do it. I didn't meant to hit your truck. I didn't mean to.

(men speaking russian)

Cheryl Cunningham

Wait, wait! (crying) where are you taking me? Where? What is this place? Who are you?

(speaking russian)

(clattering)

Cheryl Cunningham

(whispering) please, will you just get me out of here?

Janke Dacyshyn

Get up.

(groaning)

Cheryl Cunningham

I can help you. Just get me out of here. Help!

Scene 29

Our Lady of Sorrows · Conference Room

Father Ybarra

I think we can resolve, then, in good conscience and without objection, to relocate the patient to a facility suited for and humane to his condition.

Dana Scully

(whispering) sorry.

Father Ybarra

As you and I discussed, Dr. Scully, I was just informing the staff and doctors of the hospital's decision

Dana Scully

On Christian Fearon. I'm sorry. What decision?

Father Ybarra

To relocate the patient to a hospice who will manage his palliative care.

Dana Scully

That was a discussion, not a decision.

Father Ybarra

Well, it's been discussed here at length, with no objection from your colleagues.

Dana Scully

I have an objection.

Father Ybarra

You have, Dr. Scully, a patient with an untreatable condition. Now, that's very sad and unfortunate. Nobody disagrees with that.

Dana Scully

But he's my patient.

Father Ybarra

And unless you've come here today with a cure for Sandhoff disease, we all ask that you let the boy go in peace.

Dana Scully

Thank you.

Father Ybarra

Now I'd like to wrap up so we can get on to the day's good work.

Dana Scully

We have the final matter of a patient in intensive care,

Father Ybarra

Dr. Willar's patient, I believe.

Dana Scully

Admitted after suffering myocardial infarction... There is a treatment.

Father Ybarra

The matter is resolved, Dr. Scully.

Dana Scully

No, it's not. The disease can be treated with intrathecal stem cell therapy.

Father Ybarra

You're not serious.

Doctor Colleague

Don't put the boy through hell.

Dana Scully

Would you do it if it was your son?

Father Ybarra

It's not her son, and he's not yours.

Dana Scully

And it's not a decision for hospital administration. It's his doctor's. If you would like to challenge that, you can take the matter up with a higher authority.

Father Ybarra

I have taken it up with the highest authority, Dr. Scully.

Dana Scully

As should you.

(tools whirring)

Scene 30

Mulder's Car

Fox Mulder

Come on, pick up. Come on. Come on, answer.

(cell phone vibrating)

Dana Scully

This is Dana Scully. Please leave a message.

Fox Mulder

Hey, Scully, it's me. I keep leaving you messages. Here's what I want to tell you.

Scene 31

FBI Forensics Lab

Fox Mulder

That woman's head in the ice, it's not the agent's. It's not Monica Bannan's. We don't know who she is or why she's there, but so far we've pulled 11 discrete human limbs from the ice, and we're not even done yet. Each one a clean cut, too. An exact match to the previous amputation you noted, Scully. It looks like someone's been dumping body parts in the ice there for months, possibly years. And there seems to be no pattern to the limbs. Men and women, all with healthy, undiseased tissue, according to forensics. Which suggests to me that they are victims. But here's the thing, what I need you to know. We found more traces of your animal tranquilizer, acepromazine. I don't know what the hell it means, but I'm hoping you can make sense of it.

Dakota Whitney

Anything?

Fox Mulder

No, I can't reach her. But this is gonna make sense. This is a break. I'm feeling it.

Dakota Whitney

Mmm-hmm. You're feeling it. Father Joe is feeling it. All I'm feeling is my head spinning.

Fox Mulder

No, this is a serial case you've uncovered here. You're gonna solve a dozen murders here.

Dakota Whitney

Yes, but I'm no closer to finding my agent.

Fox Mulder

No, we're gonna find her. I know it.

Dakota Whitney

Well, she may have to stand in line.

Scene 32

FBI Headquarters · Conference Room

Father Joe

I see a woman's face.

Fox Mulder

Another woman. Taken from a car.

Father Joe

She's being held in a box, I think.

Mosley Drummy

Is she with Monica Bannan?

Father Joe

I don't know.

Fox Mulder

Is it the same men that took her?

Father Joe

I think so. Yes. It's the same men.

Mosley Drummy

You see this, or are you just telling these people what they want to hear?

Father Joe

No!

Mosley Drummy

No, you don't see it?

Father Joe

No, it's the same men.

Fox Mulder

I want a car ready.

Mosley Drummy

To go where?

Fox Mulder

I don't know yet.

Mosley Drummy

I don't believe this.

Fox Mulder

That's been your problem from the start.

Dakota Whitney

I can get you a car.

Fox Mulder

And a list of missing persons in the greater area over the last 48 to 72 hours.

Scene 33

Cheryl Cunningham's Crash Site

Fox Mulder

Hi.

Mosley Drummy

Hi, how's it going? Cheryl Cunningham, 34, never made it to work last night. No show at home, either. There's no blood on the airbags. Driver's side window knocked out.

Fox Mulder

Keys in the ignition.

Mosley Drummy

Survivable crash with a seatbelt. She sets off, takes a shortcut, gets tired, sits down, falls asleep.

Fox Mulder

Happens all the time. Pretty hard left turn for such a long, straight stretch of country road, don't you think? But why settle for my opinion?

Father Joe

I'm sorry. I'm not getting anything.

Mosley Drummy

What a surprise. What a surprise.

Dakota Whitney

I think we're done with Father Joe.

Mosley Drummy

Yeah.

Fox Mulder

Whoa, whoa. We're not quite finished.

Dakota Whitney

What is that?

Fox Mulder

It's a medical id bracelet. I noticed your missing agent wore one, too.

Dakota Whitney

For what? What are you thinking?

Fox Mulder

Let's pop the trunk. This isn't gonna do her much good.

Dakota Whitney

Here's a gym bag. It's a bathing suit. It's frozen stiff. Chlorine. Where's the nearest public pool?

Fox Mulder

Hi. We're hoping you can help us.

Scene 34

The Natatorium

Elderly Gent

Would you all like lockers?

Dakota Whitney

No, we're with the FBI. We'd like to show you a photo, sir, if you don't mind. Why would I mind?

Mosley Drummy

Do you know thw this pers?

Elderly Gent

Let me see. These young people look so much the same.

Dakota Whitney

You have a sign-in register?

Elderly Gent

Yes, I keep one every day.

Dakota Whitney

I'd like to see yesterday's.

Elderly Gent

I threw yesterday's away. Excuse me, sir. Doesn't he know that's the woman's side?

Our Lady of Sorrows · Operating Room

Dana Scully

Hi, Christian. You've got a whole bunch of people taking really good care of you today, okay? What? Now you look scared.

(saw whirring)

Scene 36

Our Lady of Sorrows · Corridor

Fox Mulder

People say I went underground.

Dana Scully

I'm sorry, Mulder. I've had to keep my focus here. It's the boy, isn't it? Yeah.

Fox Mulder

I thought there was nothing to be done.

Dana Scully

I'm taking a big chance on something, on a radical and extremely painful new procedure.

Fox Mulder

Last night you said that wasn't an option.

Dana Scully

It wasn't, last night.

Fox Mulder

What changed your mind?

(sighing)

Fox Mulder

When will you know if it's working?

Dana Scully

There's a series of these procedures, and we won't know until they're all done. But that's not what you came to talk about. There's another woman missing.

Fox Mulder

She's given us something to go on. She and the missing agent swam at the same pool. We found that the agent kept a locker there. We think they were stalked there. Both women wore a medical id bracelet, and they both had the same rare blood type, ab negative.

Dana Scully

Organs harvested for transplant.

Fox Mulder

That's how they were targeted.

Dana Scully

Donors and recipients need matched types. Someone using that pool knows that.

Fox Mulder

Black market. Somebody filling orders.

Dana Scully

Well, they have access. Recipients, hospitals...

Fox Mulder

That's your world, Scully. Your knowledge of it will save time, and time is our enemy.

Dana Scully

You can start with the transporters. Call the Richmond da.

Fox Mulder

No, no, no, I need you on this with me.

Dana Scully

No. No, Mulder.

Fox Mulder

Yeah, yeah. You asked for me to get involved, Scully. Now I'm asking for you to stay involved.

Dana Scully

Oh, Mulder.

Fox Mulder

You helped them already. You broke the case for them.

Dana Scully

Why don't you just let the FBI pursue it?

Fox Mulder

We're so close now.

Dana Scully

And I'm asking you to let it go.

Fox Mulder

It's not that simple.

Dana Scully

(softly) no. It's complicated.

Fox Mulder

What's that supposed mean?

Dana Scully

Something that I knew would happen, that I've been afraid of, that I haven't had to face until now. What? Just say it. I'm a doctor, Mulder. That's not my life anymore.

Fox Mulder

I know that.

Dana Scully

You're not understanding me. I can't look into the darkness with you anymore, Mulder. I cannot stand what it does to you, or to me.

Fox Mulder

I'm fine with it, Scully. I'm actually okay. I'm good.

Dana Scully

Yeah, that's what scares me.

Fox Mulder

Where else would you have me look if you want me to find these women alive?

Dana Scully

I'm asking you to look at yourself.

Fox Mulder

Why? I don't think I'm the one who's changed.

Dana Scully

We're not FBI anymore, Mulder. We are two people who come home at night, to a home now. I don't want that darkness in my home.

Fox Mulder

Scully, this is who I am. It's who I've always been. This is who I was before I met you. It's what I do. It's everything I know.

Dana Scully

Write it down. Put it in a book.

Fox Mulder

Are you asking me to give up?

Dana Scully

No. I can't tell you to do that, Mulder. But I can tell you that I won't be coming home.

Fox Mulder

Scully.

(sighs)

Dana Scully

Mulder, I've got my own battles to fight. Don't do this. Please don't argue with me.

Fox Mulder

Don't do this now.

Dana Scully

I don't know what else to do.

Fox Mulder

Well, good luck, then.

(door closes softly)

Dana Scully

(softly) you, too.

Scene 37

Our Lady of Sorrows · Corridor

Margaret Fearon

Dr. Scully?

Blair Fearon

We'd like to speak with you if we may, about Christian.

Dana Scully

Have you been in to see him?

Margaret Fearon

Yes. He was sleeping. But we've...

Blair Fearon

We've changed our minds about going forward with this new treatment.

Dana Scully

But you don't even know if it's working yet.

Blair Fearon

We think that Christian's been through enough.

Margaret Fearon

We want to put our faith in God now.

Dana Scully

I see.

Margaret Fearon

It's nothing against you.

Dana Scully

No.

Blair Fearon

If you were a mother, you'd understand.

Dana Scully

Have you spoken to father Ybarra?

Blair Fearon

Yes. But the decision is ours.

Dana Scully

What if it did work? What if we found we'd made the wrong choice by stopping?

Margaret Fearon

You're saying you can save my son?

Dana Scully

I'm saying I don't want to give up now.

Scene 38

Richmond · Organ Transport Stop

Robert Koell

But, lo and behold, when we were about to hit the tarmac, and all of a sudden the plane gears up, and we're back up in the air again. I say, "honey, isn't this fantastic? We're going to die together." turns out there was a plane parked on the tarmac and we missed colliding with it by seconds. But we were in love, and it was romantic. Sir? Excuse me, sir? Can we talk with you a minute?

Janke Dacyshyn

(with Russian accent) I'm transporting vital organ.

Robert Koell

That's what we'd like to talk to you about.

Janke Dacyshyn

This is my job. I move very quickly. I don't have much time.

Robert Koell

Please, sir. Step over here. My name is Robert Koell. I'm with the district attorney's office in Richmond. May I see your paperwork and license?

Janke Dacyshyn

I have green card.

Robert Koell

What are you transporting?

Janke Dacyshyn

Human liver for transplantation.

Robert Koell

Paper work and license, please. Where are you delivering it?

Janke Dacyshyn

Willow's memorial hospital. They're expecting it there. A patient wait for it.

Robert Koell

Have you ever procured or delivered an organ outside of normal or lawful channels?

Janke Dacyshyn

No.

Robert Koell

You're an employee with this company. How would your employer answer this question?

Janke Dacyshyn

He's sick. Has cancer.

Robert Koell

That's not what I asked you.

Janke Dacyshyn

Am I under some kind of suspicion?

(knocking on door)

Scene 39

Father Joe's Apartment · Outside

Father Joe

A vision, if ever I had one.

Dana Scully

May I speak with you?

Father Joe

Would you like to come in?

Scene 40

Father Joe's Apartment

Father Joe

Make yourself comfortable.

Dana Scully

I won't be staying long.

Father Joe

Have you come here by yourself?

Dana Scully

Yes.

Father Joe

Sit. Please, I insist. Now, you came to ask something.

(clattering outside)

Father Joe

We're alone. Free to speak in confidence.

Dana Scully

You said something to me the other night in the snow. Yes. I said, "don't give up." I need to know why you said that.

Father Joe

I haven't the faintest idea. Were you hoping for another answer?

Dana Scully

Do you know anything about me?

Father Joe

Other than that you loathe me?

Dana Scully

Do you know what it is that I do?

Father Joe

No. I can see you're a woman of faith. But not in the same things as your husband. He's not my husband. Do you care to tell me about yourself?

Dana Scully

No!

Father Joe

Do you care to offer a confession?

Dana Scully

I don't think you're... What?

Father Joe

In a position to judge? And yet you've judged me, haven't you?

Dana Scully

You deserve to be judged.

Father Joe

Do you know why we live here, the men who call this vile box of monsters home?

Dana Scully

Because we hate each other, even as we hate ourselves,

Father Joe

For our sickening appetites.

Dana Scully

That doesn't make it any less sickening.

Father Joe

And where do they come from, these appetites, these uncontrollable urges of ours?

Dana Scully

Not from God.

Father Joe

Not from me. I castrated myself when I was 26. And the visions weren't my idea, either! Proverbs 25:2.

Dana Scully

What?

Father Joe

God's glory to conceal a thing,

Dana Scully

But the honor of kings to search out a matter.

Father Joe

Don't you quote scripture to me! What are you doing here? What are you afraid of?

Dana Scully

"don't give up"! What was that for?

Father Joe

I don't know! I don't believe you! I'm telling you the truth! They were your words! I don't know why I said them.

Dana Scully

You said them to my face!

Father Joe

All I ever wanted was to serve him. All I've ever wanted was to serve God. You can ask for his pity, but don't expect mine.

Dana Scully

You can stop the act anytime! Look at me!

Scene 41

Father Joe's Apartment Building · Outside

Dana Scully

Paramedics are here now. They've been here for about seven minutes. Yeah, he's stabilized. Blood pressure's normal. No, they're loading him in now. What happened? Thank you. He had a seizure.

Fox Mulder

Who called you?

Dana Scully

No one.

Fox Mulder

Then what are you doing here? We need to talk to Father Joe.

Dana Scully

Well, that's not gonna happen.

Dakota Whitney

We've got a suspect. A Russian emigre working as an organ transporter.

Dana Scully

In custody?

Dakota Whitney

No. The Richmond da questioned him about trafficking black market human organs this afternoon, but he was released. They had no evidence to hold him. We've got a fairly credible witness who says he swam with the women at the pool.

Dana Scully

Asac Whitney? Excuse me. What's that got to do with Father Joe?

Fox Mulder

It's the man in his visions, Scully.

Dana Scully

Who?

Fox Mulder

The suspect. The man in this photo.

Dana Scully

Mulder, now you're wasting their time.

Dakota Whitney

Tell me again what you're doing here.

Mosley Drummy

Here's a vision for you. A couple of my guys just had it.

Fox Mulder

Who's this?

Mosley Drummy

That's our suspect's employer. An old friend of Father Joe's, we just learned. Known him over 20 years.

Fox Mulder

Known him how?

Mosley Drummy

That's one of his 37 altar boys. Three guesses who he's married to in the state of Massachusetts.

Fox Mulder

Our suspect.

Dakota Whitney

We got a warrant to search their offices.

Dana Scully

Mulder. It's over.

Fox Mulder

Hey! Hey! What?

Dana Scully

Hey! Mulder!

(ambulance siren wailing)

Scene 42

Downtown Richmond

Dakota Whitney

Why don't you hold up? Let these men do their jobs. Clear this bottom floor. We were all fooled on this. I wanted to believe it as bad as anyone.

Scene 43

Medical Office Building

Fox Mulder

Look, I don't need the sweet talk. You led us here. Father Joe led us here.

Dakota Whitney

This is special agent Drummy with the FBI!

Mosley Drummy

We have warrants to search these offices! Anyone inside, identify yourself and unlock the door now!

Dakota Whitney

I called you in because I thought you could help me with this case, because I valued your belief in these phenomena. Now what do you think?

Fox Mulder

I think this is a longer conversation.

Mosley Drummy

Down on the floor! Down on the floor!

Scene 44

Medical Office Building · Hallway

Mosley Drummy

Anybody here, I want down on the floor! Somebody find the lights.

Scene 45

Medical Office Building · Outside

Dakota Whitney

We were at a complete standstill and you pushed us forward, no matter the direction we took. Hey! Hey!

(horn honking)

Driver

What are you, nuts?

Dakota Whitney

Hey! Stop him!

Man

Hey! You can't go there! Whoa! Hey!

(clattering)

Dakota Whitney

Quick! Which way did they go?

Man

Down that way!

Fox Mulder

Mulder! I'm up here!

Dakota Whitney

Mulder!

Dana Scully

He's coming at you!

Dakota Whitney

Hey!

Dana Scully

Mulder!

Dakota Whitney

Yeah! Where are you?

Fox Mulder

Right here.

Dakota Whitney

Where?

(groans in disgust)

Dakota Whitney

Fox!

Fox Mulder

Where is he? Do you have him?

Dakota Whitney

No. I lost him. I saw him.

Fox Mulder

Where?

(screams)

Fox Mulder

They're both dead.

Scene 46

Hospital Corridor

Fox Mulder

Monica Bannan and Dakota Whitney.

Dana Scully

I heard. I'm sorry.

Fox Mulder

Yeah, well... I thought we were winning, Scully.

Dana Scully

I know you did, Mulder.

Fox Mulder

I'm here to see Father Joe. I want to show him these photographs of these men.

Dana Scully

You still want to believe him. I think you should know that he's been diagnosed with a terminal illness. He has advanced-stage lung cancer.

Fox Mulder

I just want to be sure.

Dana Scully

Then let me ask him.

Scene 47

Hospital Oncology Ward

Father Joe

You wouldn't believe...

Dana Scully

I was thinking of you.

Father Joe

I had a vision you might find interesting. Of a man speaking a foreign language.

Dana Scully

Did he happen to look like this?

Father Joe

Yeah. That's the man. How did you know?

Dana Scully

We think he's the man who abducted the FBI agent and the second woman that you say you saw, and possibly many more. And we think that he was helped by this man.

Father Joe

I don't know who that is.

Fox Mulder

Are you sure?

Father Joe

I'm fairly certain. I don't know him.

Dana Scully

I'm fairly certain that you do. And that you've known him since he was a boy.

Father Joe

Oh, no. It can't be true. I don't believe this. He was my connection to the girl. My visions were to save her from him. This is God's work. This is God's work.

Dana Scully

Let me ask you one more question, Father Joe.

(sighs)

Dana Scully

The FBI agent, the first woman that you saw, Monica Bannan, is she still alive?

Father Joe

I feel her.

Dana Scully

Yes.

Scene 48

Hospital Corridor

Fox Mulder

She's still alive.

Dana Scully

Mulder.

Fox Mulder

That second victim may be alive. Everybody's given up on her, but I'm not going to. Mulder, you think I don't understand, but I do.

Dana Scully

This stubbornness of yours, it's why I fell in love with you.

Fox Mulder

It's like you said. That's why we can't be together.

(man shouting in russian)

(both arguing in russian)

(shouting angrily)

Scene 49

Nutter's Feed Store

Fox Mulder

Whoa, hold up. Hey! Hey! Sorry to bother you.

Feed Store Proprietor

I'm closed!

Fox Mulder

No, I just need a moment of your time.

Feed Store Proprietor

You know, we got some bad weather coming in. You better get where you're going fast. So what do you need?

Fox Mulder

Yeah, I was wondering if you carry an animal tranquilizer called acepromazine.

Feed Store Proprietor

You got a prescription for it?

Fox Mulder

No, I don't.

Feed Store Proprietor

Well, I can't sell it to you, then.

Fox Mulder

Can you tell me if you've ever sold any to this man?

(telephone ringing)

Feed Store Proprietor

I am never getting out of here.

Fox Mulder

I'm just...

Feed Store Proprietor

Nutter's feed..

Fox Mulder

Yeah, I was just closing up and I'm gonna pick him up.

Feed Store Proprietor

Yeah. Goodbye. Yeah.

Janke Dacyshyn

What happened to the other guy?

Feed Store Proprietor

Who?

Janke Dacyshyn

The guy who was standing right here. I need to refill this now.

Feed Store Proprietor

(sighs) okay.

(dogs barking)

(computer beeping)

Fox Mulder

Yeah, it's me. Shit.

Scene 50

Hospital Corridor

Fox Mulder

I must be busy right now. Leave a message.

Dana Scully

Mulder, I just found something in my stem cell research. Experiments being done in Russia on dogs, Mulder. I think that's what your suspects have been doing, only on humans, those women who've been abducted. You've got to call me. Mulder, the FBI agent's alive.

(grunting)

(cell phone rings)

Scene 51

FBI Headquarters

Answering Agent

FBI, special agent in charge Fossa speaking. It's for you.

Mosley Drummy

This is special agent Drummy.

Dana Scully

I've been trying to find you for hours. I can't reach Mulder.

Mosley Drummy

Is this Dr. Scully?

Dana Scully

Yes, it's Dr. Scully.

Mosley Drummy

Well, where is he?

Dana Scully

If I knew that, I wouldn't be calling.

Mosley Drummy

Dr. Scully, I'm gonna suggest you call the police. This is not an FBI matter.

Dana Scully

Listen to me! I need your help!

Mosley Drummy

I'm sorry, I can't help you.

Dana Scully

Then let me talk to somebody there with some balls who can.

(metallic clanging)

(dogs barking)

(speaking russian)

Scene 52

The Kennel

Cheryl Cunningham

No! Don't touch me! No!

(screaming)

Cheryl Cunningham

Don't touch me!

Janke Dacyshyn

You're going to be fine.

(speaking russian)

Janke Dacyshyn

I've taken care of it. I've taken good care of it. You don't need this one anymore. Okay.

(speaking russian)

Janke Dacyshyn

Look at me. You're going to live. You're going to have a fine, strong body again.

(speaking russian)

(dogs barking)

(dogs barking ferociously)

(speaking russian)

(dogs whining)

(dog whimpering)

Scene 53

Outside the Kennel

Police Officer

Excuse me.

Dana Scully

I'm Dana Scully and that's my car.

Uniformed Cop

Right. I talked to some bigwig down at the FBI. Called from Washington.

Dana Scully

Yeah. That's him. Walter Skinner.

Uniformed Cop

Is there any indication what happened or any footprints?

Dana Scully

Nothing. Snow's pretty heavy. But we did find this.

Uniformed Cop

Might want to give it to him. Excuse me.

Dana Scully

Here's his cell phone. It's got blood on it.

Walter Skinner

Hey, listen to me. Calm down. Stop and think. He's okay. He's got to be. Now, he climbed out of there somehow. And if he climbed out, he probably climbed up.

(dogs barking)

(speaking russian)

Walter Skinner

Stop what you're...

Dana Scully

Stop.

Scene 54

The Kennel · Operating Room

Walter Skinner

Back off! Back away!

(staff clamoring in russian)

Walter Skinner

Back off! Back off!

Dana Scully

Do you speak english? Anybody speak english? I want her out of here! I want those tubes out of her neck, and I want her neck sewn up! Do it! Do it! Are you gonna do what I said?

(man speaking russian)

(exclaims)

(groaning)

(speaking russian)

(sighs)

Scene 55

Snowy Country Highway

Walter Skinner

We will find him. I know Mulder. He'd get to a phone and call first. He didn't do anything crazy. Not overly crazy.

Dana Scully

Wait a minute. Back up. Just stop. Back up a sec. Stop.

Walter Skinner

What is it?

Dana Scully

Proverbs, 25:2. The glory of God to hide a thing. I've got it. It's an invoice for medical supplies to a Dr. Uroff-Koltoff. It's an address on bellflower road.

(dogs barking)

Walter Skinner

Maybe I can Google it.

Dana Scully

Listen.

Walter Skinner

What?

(barking continues)

Dana Scully

Dogs. Dogs!

Walter Skinner

Hey!

Dana Scully

(whispering) Mulder. Can you hear me?

Fox Mulder

(weakly) sorry about your car. The girl is still inside.

(man speaking urgently in russian)

Walter Skinner

Show me your hands! Show me your hands!

(speaking russian)

Walter Skinner

Put the scalpel down! Put the scalpel down! Put the scalpel down, or I'll blow your goddamn hand off! Get over there!

Dana Scully

Oh, my God, what have you done? What have you done? Mulder needs warm clothes and fluids. Oh, God. I've got work to do here.

Walter Skinner

Get in! Get in there!

(people chattering in russian)

Scene 56

Outside the Kennel

Walter Skinner

All right, Mulder.

Fox Mulder

The girl, inside...

Walter Skinner

Scully's got her. She's in good hands.

Fox Mulder

Skinner? Yeah. I'm cold.

Walter Skinner

I got you. I got you.

Dana Scully

Mulder?

Fox Mulder

What's up, doc?

Scene 57

Mulder's Home Office

Fox Mulder

Father Joe is dead.

Dana Scully

He was clearly a very sick man.

Fox Mulder

Did you see this story? The FBI is claiming Father Joe was an accomplice. Not a word about his psychic connection.

Dana Scully

He's dead, Mulder. We'll never know.

Fox Mulder

I know, Scully, and I can prove it. Father Joe died of lung cancer, right? The same as that man Dr. Frankenstein tried to give a new body.

Dana Scully

Mulder.

Fox Mulder

And what time did you pull those tubes from that woman's neck? What time did you cut off the blood supply to that man's head? That's when Father Joe died. You get me his death certificate and I'll show it to you, and then I'll take it to the FBI and I'll show them.

Dana Scully

Do you think they're really gonna take your call?

Fox Mulder

It's an injustice to the man's name.

Dana Scully

Well, considering his crimes against those young boys, who is really going to care?

Fox Mulder

I thought you believed him, too. I wanted to believe him.

Dana Scully

I did believe him. I acted on that belief.

Fox Mulder

Why don't you just tell me what he said to you? He told me, "don't give up."

Dana Scully

And I didn't. And it saved your life.

Fox Mulder

(voice breaking) but I've put that boy through hell.

Dana Scully

And I have another surgery scheduled for this morning

Fox Mulder

Because I believed that God was telling me to.

Dana Scully

Through a pedophile priest, no less.

Fox Mulder

What if Father Joe's prayers were answered after all? What if he were forgiven because he didn't give up?

Dana Scully

Try proving that one, Mulder. I'm due at the hospital.

Fox Mulder

Scully? Why would he say that? "don't give up." why would he say such a thing to you?

Dana Scully

I think that was clearly meant for you, Mulder.

Fox Mulder

He didn't say it to me. He said it to you. If Father Joe were the devil, why would he say the opposite of what the devil might say? Maybe that's the answer. You know, the larger answer.

Dana Scully

What do you mean?

Fox Mulder

Don't give up.

Dana Scully

Please don't make this any harder than it already is.

Fox Mulder

It's okay. Okay. (softly) if you have any doubts, any doubts at all, just call off that surgery this morning. And then we'll get out of here. Just me and you. As far away from the darkness as we can get? I'm not sure it works that way.

Dana Scully

I think maybe the darkness finds you,

Fox Mulder

And me.

Dana Scully

I know it does.

Fox Mulder

But let it try.

(sighs)

Fox Mulder

Are you ready to begin, Dr. Scully?

Dana Scully

Yes.
