Scully: According to the briefing, the prisoners escaped by hiding in a laundry cart.
Mulder: I don’t think the guards are watching enough prison movies.
Mulder: I thought this was about escaped prisoners.
Scully: It is.
Mulder: Then who are the men in the funny suits?
Mulder: This isn’t the type of thing the FBI normally gets called in on. I got a feeling we’re not being told the entire story here.
Scully: I got the same feeling, Mulder.
Mulder: You think you can get in there and find out what’s going on?
Scully: I can try. Where are you going?
Mulder: To see if I can get in the way.
Dr. Osbourne (Charles Martin Smith): Agent Scully, you were there when the postula erupted on me. Which means you may also be infected.
Skinner (Mitch Pileggi): What is it, Agent Mulder?
Mulder: This case we’ve been assigned. I believe we’ve been mislead.
Mulder: Why weren’t we told the truth?
CSM (William B. Davis): We didn’t know the truth. What we knew would have only slowed you down.
Mulder: But innocent people have been infected. What you knew could have prevented that.
CSM: In 1988 there was an outbreak of hemorrhagic fever in Sacramento.
Mulder: You can’t protect the public by lying to them.
CSM: It’s done every day.
Mulder: I won’t be a party to it. {to Skinner} How about you?
CSM: You’re a party to it already. How many people are being infected while you stand here not doing your job? Ten? Twenty? What’s the truth, Agent Mulder?
Mulder: What if someone dies because we withheld what we knew?
CSM: What if someone dies because we didn’t? There will be a time for the truth, Mulder, but this isn’t it.
