Scene 02
MULDER'S APARTMENT · WASHINGTON, D.C.
[ whimpers ]
[ grunts ]
Fox Mulder
Damn it.
Dana Scully
I wanna know what's on that train.
X
It doesn't matter now.
Dana Scully
Our government is operating a secret railroad. They put something on that train in West Virginia-- something living.
X
What more is there to know?
Dana Scully
What the japanese have to do with it. How a man named Ishimaru is involved.
X
That, I don't know.
Dana Scully
Don't tell me you don't know, you smug son of a--
X
There are limits... To my knowledge.
Dana Scully
I don't have time for your convenient ignorance.
X
What were you gonna do? Shoot me, just like the men that shot your sister?
Dana Scully
You know them too?
X
You wanna know what's on that train, who killed your sister? You find out what they put in your neck.
Dana Scully
The implant.
X
It holds more than I could ever tell you. Maybe everything you need to know.
Scene 03
TRAIN
[ door shuts ]
Fox Mulder
Excuse me, sir. I need your assistance. I'm a federal agent. My name is Mulder.
Conductor
You need my assistance?
Fox Mulder
I need access to that quarantine car you picked up in West Virginia.
Conductor
[ sighs ] sorry. Can't help you.
Fox Mulder
I'm a federal agent, sir. Open that car.
Conductor
I would if I could, but I don't have access myself. We pick these cars up. Whatever they're carrying, they never let us know.
Fox Mulder
Somebody's got to be able to get in that car.
Conductor
We've got a doctor on board. Came on back at queen's gate. He might have something to do with it. I saw him checking the door.
Fox Mulder
What's his name?
Conductor
Japanese fella. Dr. Shiro Zama. Traveling with another party, it says, but I got the impression, he was alone.
Fox Mulder
Can you take me to his compartment?
Conductor
Certainly. Right this way.
Fox Mulder
Stay here. Knock on the door, but stay away from it.
Conductor
Dr. Zama?
Fox Mulder
Knock again.
Conductor
It's the conductor, dr. Zama.
Fox Mulder
Open it. Just unlock it, then step away. Why did I study french in high school? You got a safe place you can put this?
Conductor
Yes. What am I supposed to tell the doctor when he asks where it is?
Fox Mulder
If he finds you before I find him, I want you to make him lie on the ground till I get back. Have you ever used a gun before?
Conductor
No.
[ clip clicks ]
Fox Mulder
I just want you to point it at him. Don't pull the trigger. That'll give away the game.
[ chuckles ]
Conductor
What if he runs?
Fox Mulder
Just make sure he runs my way.
Scene 04
FBI HEADQUARTERS · WASHINGTON, D.C. · 8:25 PM
Agent Pendrell
I'm feeding the chip impulses. The graph is recording its output, which, when I remove the current, changes slightly, but continues. This means the neural network is storing information.
Dana Scully
Biological information?
Agent Pendrell
That was my first guess. The chip was placed subcutaneous to the back of the neck, right? So it makes sense that it would be recording impulses... Traveling to and from the central nervous system.
Dana Scully
But what?
Agent Pendrell
But look at the graph. Those are what we call "reverberatory loops." they indicate the presence of circular neuronal activity in the brain.
Dana Scully
Memory formation.
Agent Pendrell
Yeah. The chip seems to be mimicking that process-- replicating the memory function in the brain.
Dana Scully
Like a computer hard drive.
Agent Pendrell
Yeah, but no hard drive we've ever seen. This kind of neural network could be not only collecting information, but artificially replicating a person's mental processes.
Dana Scully
You could know a person's every thought.
Agent Pendrell
Frightening. Anyway, I showed the chip to some of my tech-heads, and they weren't as blown away as I thought they'd be.
Dana Scully
They've seen this technology before?
Agent Pendrell
They've seen neural nets before, but never as complex as that, nor are they likely to any time soon.
Dana Scully
What do you mean?
Agent Pendrell
The chip's so delicate, I effectively destroyed it when I began working on it, but I found something in the silicon matrix, what I believe is the name of the manufacturer.
Dana Scully
It's japanese, isn't it?
Agent Pendrell
How'd you know?
Dana Scully
Oh, it was just a guess.
Agent Pendrell
Well, I checked for you. I assumed you'd want me to. There's no record or information on the manufacturer, either here or in japan, except for this. We had fed ex, UPS, the postal service, every commercial courier... Go through their computer records. They turned up one shipment sent to a dr. Shiro Zama... At a research facility out in perkey, West Virginia.
Dana Scully
Well done, agent Pendrell. Keep up the good work.
Agent Pendrell
Hey. Thanks. Keep it up yourself. "keep it up yourself"? What a doof.
Scene 06
PERKEY, WEST VIRGINIA
[ chattering ]
[ gasps ]
Shiro Zama
Please.
[ thudding ]
[ clatter ]
Dana Scully
[ Scully ] hey! Stop!
[ thump ]
Scene 07
TRAIN
[ creaks ]
[ clack ]
[ whimpering ]
Escalante
Please. Don't. Don't hurt us. Please. Don't.
[ chattering ]
Fox Mulder
Excuse me.
Mother
[ screams ] oh, god! He's dead.
Fox Mulder
No. No. Shh, shh, shh. He's just got a little motion sickness. I'm gonna go find a doctor. Why don't you and the young man just find another bathroom, hmm?
Scene 08
PERKEY, WEST VIRGINIA
Mother
Come on, timmy. Let's just go.
Dana Scully
Who are you? Don't worry. I'm not gonna hurt you. I'm an FBI agent.
Escalante
We-- we live here. We've lived here at the facility most of our lives.
Dana Scully
What kind of facility?
Escalante
The hansen's disease research facility.
Dana Scully
Hansen's-- do you mean this is a Leper colony?
Escalante
No more. The facility's closed now.
Dana Scully
L-look, I-I came here looking for a dr. Shiro Zama.
Escalante
Dr. Zama isn't here anymore. None of the medical staff is.
Dana Scully
Where did they go?
Escalante
Well, they all left... Right before the death squads started coming.
Dana Scully
What death squads?
Escalante
That's-- that's who we've been hiding from. We thought you'd come to kill us like they killed all the others. Hundreds. All but us.
Dana Scully
I don't understand how there could have been hundreds of people here... When-- when leprosy is supposed to be a treatable disease.
Escalante
Well, it is. Me and-- and-- and the other people back at the hiding place, we're the last. Our disfigurement forced us into the camps before there was a treatment.
Dana Scully
Who were the others?
Escalante
We never knew. They began arriving several years ago, but they were kept apart from us.
Dana Scully
And they had hansen's disease?
Escalante
No, no. They had the hansen's deformities. Dr. Zama would round them up in groups for treatment. Then the ones that returned always came back worse-- with terrible burns all over their bodies.
[ panting ]
Escalante
It's over there.
[ gasps ]
Dana Scully
Oh, my god.
Escalante
There are more of these pits. They just dump the bodies on top of each other... Like they were garbage.
[ helicopter approaching ]
Escalante
They're coming.
Dana Scully
Wait! Hey!
Escalante
No.
Soldier
Move and you're dead.
Scene 09
TRAIN
[ gunshots ]
[ chattering ]
[ door shuts ]
Fox Mulder
I found Zama four cars up strangled in the bathroom.
Conductor
No.
Fox Mulder
I want you to get up there and seal off that bathroom. Get word to the engineer not to stop this train until I tell him. Okay? Till I find the killer.
[ grunting ]
[ gasping ]
Conductor
Hey!
Red-Haired Man
I'm a law enforcement officer.
Conductor
Stay back.
Red-Haired Man
Just put that gun down. I'm gonna show you my identification. Put the gun down.
[ door whirrs, hisses ]
[ man pounds on door ]
Red-Haired Man
You idiot!
[ pounds on door ]
Fox Mulder
Put your hands in the air and turn around! Put your hands in the air!
Red-Haired Man
You have no idea what you're dealing with here.
Fox Mulder
Maybe you should've filled me in before you tried to kill me. Now, who are you?
Red-Haired Man
No. Who are you?
Fox Mulder
Answer me!
Red-Haired Man
I work for the national security agency.
Fox Mulder
The NSA? Since when did they start issuing you guys piano wire... Instead of guns?
Red-Haired Man
Since we learned... There's a bomb on this train.
Fox Mulder
There's something on this train, but it's not a bomb. Throw that here.
Red-Haired Man
This car is wired to an explosive device. It armed automatically when I entered the car.
Fox Mulder
Why?
Red-Haired Man
Because of what's in that room. Because if the man responsible for it... Couldn't get it out of the country, he would rather kill it than let it live.
Fox Mulder
So you killed him?
Red-Haired Man
The only humane alternative, given the circumstances.
Fox Mulder
Put your hands in the air.
Red-Haired Man
This bomb could be wired to anything in the car. Smallest concussion could set it off. If you use that weapon, you take your chances.
[ exhales ]
Fox Mulder
I'll take my chances.
First Elder
I'd like to speak with miss Scully alone.
Scene 10
PERKEY, WEST VIRGINIA
[ door shuts ]
Dana Scully
How did you know my name? I know most everything about you, Dana. What are you talking about? I think you know. Who are you? What is this place? This was one of the most frightening places on the earth. A place where society sent its monsters... To live in shame and isolation. Now their disease is all but conquered. Science has eliminated thousands of years of misery. I've seen your methods of elimination. What happened to the man with me in the forest? What about the people who were in this room? They had been exposed. Exposed to what? The same thing all these people have been exposed to. Victims of an inhuman project run by a man named Zama. You mean Ishimaru. You hid him here after the war. He stayed here, and he continued his experiments. The ruler of the world is no longer the country with the bravest soldiers, but the greatest scientists. Unfortunately, Ishimaru began to conduct his work in secret-- not sharing with those who had risked much in giving him his asylum. What was he exposing these people to? Terrible things. What kinds of things? Have I been exposed? I don't know. Who knows? Please. I'd like to show you something... That will give you your answers.
Scene 11
TRAIN
Conductor
Agent Mulder, do you want us to try prying this door open?
Red-Haired Man
I wouldn't recommend that.
Fox Mulder
No. Where's the key card?
Red-Haired Man
It's in my pocket.
Fox Mulder
Take it out... Slowly. Put it on the table.
Red-Haired Man
It's not gonna work.
Fox Mulder
No? How did you get in here? There's a code. Right? Zama gave you a code just before you killed him. What is it?
Red-Haired Man
Four ones, a four, a seven and a one.
Fox Mulder
1-1-1-1-4-7-1.
Red-Haired Man
I assumed Zama would be smarter... Than to give me the entrance and the exit code. When I used the code to enter the car, it activated the bomb. If you use it again, it will almost certainly set it off.
Fox Mulder
If there's a bomb on this train, where is it?
Red-Haired Man
I don't know. Could be anywhere.
Fox Mulder
No, it couldn't be anywhere. If you activated it coming in, it's gotta be on this car.
Red-Haired Man
You're probably right.
Fox Mulder
Where do you think it is?
Red-Haired Man
I don't know.
Fox Mulder
You know what I think? I think you're a liar. I don't think you work for the NSA, and I don't think there's a bomb on this train.
Red-Haired Man
You're choosing a hell of a way to find out.
Fox Mulder
Shut up!
[ beeping ]
[ beeping ]
Fox Mulder
That's you.
[ sighs ] answer it. [ cell phone beeping ]
[ beeping ]
[ phone beeps ]
Red-Haired Man
Yes? Yes. Just a moment. It's for you.
Fox Mulder
Put it down. Yeah?
First Elder
Mr. Mulder, I have someone here who'd like to speak with you.
Dana Scully
Mulder, it's me.
Fox Mulder
Scully, where are you?
Dana Scully
I'm in West Virginia.
Fox Mulder
Who dialed this number?
Dana Scully
Mulder, we've gotten involved in something, but it's not at all what you think.
Fox Mulder
What are you talking about?
Dana Scully
Whatever is on that train is not alien.
Fox Mulder
You're wrong, Scully.
Dana Scully
[ Scully ] Mulder, Ishimaru-- Zama -- he was experimenting on innocent human subjects. He'd been doing it for years, operating out of a Leper colony.
Fox Mulder
Whatever his name was, Scully, he's dead. I don't think this has anything to do with lepers.
Dana Scully
The Leper colony was just a front. The tests weren't just on lepers. They were on the homeless, on-- on the insane. They were brought here, and they were subjected to diseases and radiation tests.
Fox Mulder
Who told you this?
Dana Scully
The man who handed me the phone.
Fox Mulder
Why do you believe him?
Dana Scully
Because of what he's shown me.
Fox Mulder
What?
[ clatter ]
Fox Mulder
What has he shown you?
Dana Scully
Mulder, I'm standing in a train car... Just like the one on your alien autopsy video, only I realize that I've been here before.
Fox Mulder
What are you talking about?
Dana Scully
This is where they brought me. This is where they put the implant in my neck-- one of these cars.
Fox Mulder
[ Mulder ] Scully--
Dana Scully
It all makes sense, Mulder. Ishimaru-- Zama-- he was using the secret railroad... To conduct his tests across the country. The women in Allentown, they all remember these cars. [ static on cell phone ]
Fox Mulder
[ static ] Scully. Scully?
Dana Scully
Can you hear me?
Fox Mulder
Yeah. Are you saying that Zama is the one who abducted these women?
Dana Scully
What I'm saying, Mulder, is that there is no such thing as alien abduction. It is just a smoke screen happily created by our government... To cover up the biggest lie of all.
Fox Mulder
What about the UFO I saw them working on?
Dana Scully
That wasn't a UFO it was a piece of a russian nuclear sub that was raised. More lies.
Fox Mulder
How can you be so sure?
Dana Scully
Because I have what I told you I needed, Mulder. Proof. Two weeks ago, the president made a public apology... For secret radiation tests that have been conducted on innocent citizens... Up until 1974. Only guess what.
Fox Mulder
Those tests never ended.
Dana Scully
Mulder, listen to me. You have got to stay out of that train car.
Fox Mulder
Why?
Dana Scully
Because there is a bomb on board. Mulder, if that bomb detonates, thousands of people are gonna die from hemorrhagic fever. That's what the test subject inside has been exposed to.
Fox Mulder
Well, Scully, you're a little late. I'm locked inside that train car.
Dana Scully
Then we've got to get you out. That device is on a timer.
Fox Mulder
Where is it?
Dana Scully
There should be a ventilation grid on the ceiling. It's hidden up inside.
Fox Mulder
Step back. Open that.
Dana Scully
Did you find it, Mulder?
Fox Mulder
Hold on. Oh, yeah. I found it.
Dana Scully
How much time do you have?
Fox Mulder
Little over an hour and a half.
Dana Scully
Look, Mulder, you've got to get them to stop that train, so we can get you off of it. They want you to tell the engineer to stop at the next station.
Fox Mulder
Why?
Dana Scully
So we can get a bomb squad out there... And evacuate the train.
Fox Mulder
Scully, you're breaking up. I can't hear you.
Dana Scully
Did you hear that? Mulder? Muld--
Fox Mulder
Scully? Scully?
Dana Scully
What's the next stop? It's not on the map.
Fox Mulder
Step aside. Conductor! Where are we?
Conductor
Iowa. We passed murray station about 20 minutes ago.
Fox Mulder
I want you to get word to the engineer. There's a bomb on this car.
Conductor
Bomb?
Fox Mulder
That's right. I want you to tell him not to make his next scheduled stop... And to reroute, understand?
Conductor
I think so.
Fox Mulder
Tell him to choose a place... As far away from a populated area as possible and unhook this car.
Red-Haired Man
What are you doing?
Fox Mulder
Let's move into the corner over there now.
Red-Haired Man
You're gonna get us both killed.
Fox Mulder
I want you to kneel down and put your hands behind your back.
Red-Haired Man
They'll never be able to find us in time.
Fox Mulder
If what's on this train is as important as I think it is, they will.
[ train crossing bell ringing ]
[ brakes hiss ]
[ ringing continues ]
[ brakes screech ]
[ rumbling ]
[ grunts ]
Red-Haired Man
You're gonna die, you know that?
Fox Mulder
What do you care? You were trying to kill me anyway.
[ train creaks ] [ clank ]
Scene 12
SCULLY'S CAR
[ cell phone rings ]
Dana Scully
[ beep ] Scully.
Fox Mulder
Scully, you haven't seen america, till you've seen it from a train.
Dana Scully
Damn it! What happened?
Fox Mulder
I'm not gonna make that station, Scully.
Dana Scully
I figured that. You have any idea where you are?
Fox Mulder
No, but I'm sure they'll find us. We probably lit up every spy satellite in this hemisphere. It was the only thing to do, Scully. If you're right about what's on this car, an explosion outside a populated area would reduce the risks.
Dana Scully
If I'm right, they're not gonna want to find you. But you don't think I'm right, do you?
Fox Mulder
We'll have to wait and see.
Dana Scully
We're not waiting for anything. We gotta get you out of there as fast as we can.
Fox Mulder
I'm fielding all offers and suggestions. They're not gonna come, are they?
Red-Haired Man
I said you were making a mistake.
Fox Mulder
Tell me something. You got on this train to kill dr. Zama. Then what? What were your orders then? Who are you protecting? Unless that bomb is as phony as you are, we both got about half an hour to live. Is that part of the plan?
Red-Haired Man
They don't make provisions for saving my life.
Fox Mulder
Well, what about that thing locked back there? What provisions were made for saving its life?
Red-Haired Man
I don't know. I wasn't expected to fail.
Fox Mulder
You know what it is, don't you? You're gonna die for that thing. Is it important enough to die for? What is it, a plague carrier? A Leper? We're both gonna die in here. The difference is I'm gonna die quickly. As an employee of the national security agency, you should know that a gunshot wound to the stomach... Is probably the most painful and the slowest way to die-- but I'm not a very good shot, and when I miss... I tend to miss low.
Red-Haired Man
It's a weapon.
Fox Mulder
A weapon? What kind of a weapon?
Red-Haired Man
Ask yourself, my friend. What could be more valuable than star wars, more valuable than the atomic bomb... Or the most advanced biological weapons?
Fox Mulder
A standing army immune to the effects of those weapons. That's what dr. Zama did, didn't he? He came up with an immunity to those weapons. He was trying to smuggle that thing to his own country to share the science, only our government isn't in the mood to share, right? They've been doing experiments since world war ii-- tests on innocent civilians. But Zama succeeded where the others had failed. And that thing in there, that's no innocent civilian. It's not a Leper, either. It's an alien-human hybrid, isn't it?
Red-Haired Man
Then again, if that were true... You'd have expected someone would've been here by now to save it, wouldn't you?
Scene 14
TRAIN
[ exhales deeply ]
Dana Scully
Yes. Hello. My name is Dana Scully, and I'm trying to reach senator Matheson at home. I've already tried his office. Please. This is an emergency. Can you reach him? Yes. I'm at 555-0199. Thanks. This area code.
[ books clattering on floor ]
[ click ]
[ cell phone rings ]
[ rings ]
Fox Mulder
[ rings ] yeah?
Dana Scully
Mulder, I think I've got something here.
Fox Mulder
What is it?
Dana Scully
I think I may have a code for you. I'm watching Zama punch it in to keypad in one of the train cars.
Fox Mulder
[ Mulder ] what are you watching?
Dana Scully
Your alien autopsy video.
Fox Mulder
You mean I might get my $29.95's worth after all?
Dana Scully
I've got six minutes left. Is that what you have?
Fox Mulder
Let's hope not. What's the code?
Dana Scully
Okay. One. One. Zero.
Fox Mulder
What? Are you there?
Dana Scully
Yeah. Yeah. One. Zero. One.
Fox Mulder
1-0-1.
Dana Scully
And a three. Then a three.
Fox Mulder
3-3.
Dana Scully
Ah. I can't see the last number clearly. His hand gets in the way.
Fox Mulder
Tick, tick, Scully.
Dana Scully
No. I'm sorry. Um-- I think it's a one.
Fox Mulder
You think it's a one. Are you sure?
Dana Scully
Yeah. Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
Fox Mulder
And a one. [ keypad beeps, door hisses ]
[ thump ] [ groans ]
Dana Scully
Mulder? Mulder! [ clatter on phone line ]
Scene 15
FBI HEADQUARTERS · WASHINGTON, D.C. · ONE WEEK LATER
[ door hisses ]
[ gunshot ]
[ gasping ]
[ breathing heavily ]
Fox Mulder
Okay. Call me if you learn anything. Nothing, Scully-- not the rail operators, not the forestry department. Nobody knows what happened to that train car.
Dana Scully
Are there any satellite photos you can get your hands on?
Fox Mulder
Senator Matheson hasn't returned my phone calls. His-- his aides say he's out of the country.
Dana Scully
Well, the administrator at the hospital where you were admitted... Said that someone had called and alerted them to your location. Now, I went through the phone records myself, and the call was placed from a phone booth in blue earth, Iowa.
Fox Mulder
Did you locate the briefcase that Zama left on the train?
Dana Scully
Yeah. I got it right here.
Fox Mulder
It doesn't look like the same briefcase.
Dana Scully
It's the one they gave me, the one they said you gave to the conductor.
Fox Mulder
these aren't the same journals. They've all been rewritten. -
Dana Scully
Mulder--
Fox Mulder
They're getting away with it.
Dana Scully
They've gotten away with it. The bodies at the Leper colony have all been removed.
Fox Mulder
I know what I saw on that train. It wasn't a Leper. It wasn't human.
Dana Scully
I know what I saw at the research facility. It was barely recognizable as human. Don't you see, Mulder? You're doing their work for them. You're chasing aliens that aren't there, helping them create a story to cover the shameful truth. And what they can't cover, they apologize for. Apology has become policy.
Fox Mulder
I-I don't need an apology for the lies. I don't care about the fictions they create to cover their crimes. I want them held accountable for what did happen. I want an apology for the truth.
