scully

SCULLY feels frantically under the floormat . SKINNER holds up the car keys for her to see .

Agent Scully was not prepared to blow the whistle on Mulder for his continuing investigation of the closed X- Files .

SCULLY hangs up the phone, then turns toward the door as she hears a creaking floorboard.

SCULLY looks as if she's going to cry. Music is sad, perfectly reflecting a mood of this scene.

AGENT GENE CRANE: Agent Scully tells us she was home last night. We see from your phone log, you were here until at least after 10: 00.

SCULLY: It's all right here. For a year, he was going to doctors. There's a clear record of his decline.

MULDER and SCULLY at SCULLY's home in her bedroom holding their new son WILLIAM between them.

An SUV pulls up beside the other trucks. SKINNER is driving. SCULLY gets out of the passenger side and walks up to DOGGETT.

SCULLY and REYES in their hiding place in Democrat Hot Springs. Surrounded by a bunch of alien replicants. BILLY MILES is one of them.

You were the last person to see Mulder. You and Agent Scully.

Emphasis on the word "now" . SKINNER and SCULLY start to leave. KERSH takes off his glasses and faces them.

SCULLY: Am I to understand that you want me to debunk the X-Files project, sir?

You know, Agent Scully. You're, uh, you're starting to remind me a lot of Agent Mulder yourself.

SCULLY sighs deeply as she comes closer to the children .

SCULLY: Who ambushed me with the phony chitchat about Mulder and then put a wiretap on my phone?

He crosses to SCULLY and lifts her into his arms , resting her against his leg . She begins to cry, and embarrassed covers her eyes .

MOSLEY looks up at someone walking toward them from the desert. It is SCULLY, looking tired. She did just spend a few hours in the desert.

SKINNER suddenly turns and takes SCULLY 's weapon from her hands . They both breathe heavily .

What? You're looking at me like you don't believe me. Ask Agent Scully.

SCULLY and SKINNER walk around the corner of the building beside them.

I didn't want to believe it. He said Agent Scully's a part of that program too.

Inside the dormitory. AGENT LANDAU approaches the WOMAN WHO LOOKS LIKE SCULLY as she walks away from him.

DOGGETT is sitting in the bullpen just as SCULLY turns over his badge to read his name .

MULDER: Hey Scully, if you could be somebody else for a day, who would it be?

Interrogation room. MARTIN WELLS, fresh cut on his face, greets DOGGETT and SCULLY as they enter. DOGGETT winces at the sight of the cut.

SCULLY's apartment. There's a knock at the door. SCULLY answers it. DOGGETT's standing there, looking panicked.

Sound of a phone dialing. SCULLY is now back near her computer, phone in hand. An answering machine picks up.

SCULLY has stepped away, but now turns back to them, a look of surprise on her face.

SCULLY: I'm sorry, Mr. Coeben. I'm sorry. There was a man. There was someone in the building. Did you see anyone?

Just as Mother threw herself into work, I threw myself into high school, and into my new neighborhood on Scully Street.

LEO SCULLY: Years before, farmers had united in agricultural organizations they called granges. A national grange had been formed.

Scully is a pediatric surgeon, and the point is she's busy, her hairstyle is prettier than ever, and she's left behind all things X.

AGENT MOSLEY: (on radio) I need someone who's with Agent Scully to put her on a radio. Someone. With Agent Scully.

Whatever you and I may differ on, I'll find him, Agent Scully.

SCULLY is still staring at the tombstone, her hand covering her mouth.

SCULLY: Why do people refuse to believe in aliens and UFOs after all these years of sightings and eyewitness accounts? Why?

A fact that may be explained by the popularity of Agents Scully and Mulder and the X-Files series broadcast on British TV that year.

It sounds like they were filming the scene where Scully finds her landlord on the fire escape.

AGENT LANDAU looks up at her and begins heavy panicked breathing . SCULLY backs away out of concern for the man .

They reach the autopsy room. It's empty. The body's gone. SCULLY and REYES both stare at the empty autopsy table. FOLLMER walks toward it.

SCULLY: Our cooperation? With due respect, there aren't two people better qualified to be directing this action, sir.

LEO SCULLY: In eighteen seventy-nine, a new form of business organization was developed -- the trust.

Respect like you showed me over the phone? Give a little, get a little, Agent Scully.

SKINNER walks down the crowded halls of the FBI and enters the Bullpen. All the Task Force is there, plus KERSH, DOGGETT and SCULLY.

SKINNER: (defiantly, to SCULLY) I know what I saw. I not going to sit here and listen to this. I watched it happen.

SCULLY is looking at herself in her bathroom mirror.

SKINNER turns away and leaves. SCULLY watches as DOGGETT picks up a phone and she turns to follow SKINNER.

"I tell clients" , Mr Scully explains, "disability insurance is not unemployment insurance. "

SCULLY: What you saw, why they took Mulder, why they're in Arizona now-- it all makes sense.

SCULLY ignores him and gets into the truck and locks the door. SKINNER comes to the window.

SCULLY: Mr. Wells, let's say that, that all this is true. Why do you think it's happening?

SCULLY enters the autopsy room. DOGGETT and REYES are already there, standing over the dead body on the table, covered by a sheet.

They both walk to the elevator, REYES without turning back and SCULLY catching a glance at SHANNON MCMAHON.

SCULLY begins running toward the building. The others follow.

SCULLY: They're not going to find Mulder this way. You know that and I know that.

As SKINNER pulls back onto the road, SCULLY's attention remains focused on the area near the cliff.

LEO SCULLY: During President Harrison's administration, only eight corporations were accused of violating the new anti-trust law.

DOGGETT: All right. I got some light on this. Maybe you can help me out here, Agent Scully.

SCULLY: ( sarcastically , yet serious) Hey, if something tries to rip your throat out, I got you covered.

SCULLY: (on phone) You stay out of my business!

SCULLY: Well, you heard Kersh. They don't want the truth. You give them the truth, and they'll hang you with it.

DOGGETT looks away for a moment, then back at SCULLY. He sighs.

Agent Scully has informed me that you failed to mention something to me when we first met.

They need Agent Mulder. Happily, Mulder and Scully are soon on a helicopter to the FBI building in Washington.

SCULLY: What if there was only one choice and all the other ones were wrong? And there were signs along the way to pay attention to.

Later SCULLY and SKINNER enter KERSH's old office. He is packing up items from his desk drawers.

SCULLY: I believe I was taken by men who subjected me to medical tests which left me barren.

SCULLY closes the door behind him.

The office of the LONE GUNMEN. They are showing SCULLY marked maps.

Without looking at DOGGETT, SCULLY opens the drawer, gets the food and feeds the fish.

SCULLY takes a photo of CARL WORMUS's dead body with an evidence camera and hands it to REYES.

SCULLY: What's my theory? My theory is you don't know Mulder at all. You never did.

One day, a serious-looking FBI agent shows up needing Scully's help on a case involving an abducted agent.

GIBSON PRAISE winces and looks down at his leg . SCULLY lifts the cloth covering the nasty wound .

SCULLY: (hard to accept) You think that Mulder was here? That he broke in to steal those files?

SCULLY: Hi. Um . . . we're looking for a boy named Gibson Praise.

Guilty, SCULLY looks away from him and begins splinting his leg.

As SKINNER heads back to the truck, he realizes SCULLY is not following. She is looking off into the desert.

SCULLY: There are agents tearing apart Mulder's office who say they're part of an FBI manhunt.

SCULLY accepts the cup and takes a sip as THE MAN sits down again, and begins reading his file.

SCULLY: I'd say they have all the character profile they need on him.

SCULLY: (on phone) Thank you. You just answered all my questions.

Inside the hospital. SCULLY and DOGGETT enter. Other agents are in the waiting area.

When AGNET LANDAU looks back toward the man walking toward him , he now sees SCULLY .

AGENT MOSLEY: No one's getting past us, Agent Scully. No one's gotten past us.

SCULLY: It is yours. It was found in the dumpster behind the Strand Hotel.

DOGGETT: I guess I just find it hard to swallow that a scientist, a serious person, could buy that. Ever see an alien, Agent Scully?

DOGGETT ignores her and leaves. SCULLY and SKINNER are left together.

SCULLY: Needle punctures , maybe. An animal bite. Electrocution of some kind.

CUT TO: SCULLY entering SKINNER's office. SKINNER is on the phone. He is not happy with the conversation.

Scully: You can get a court order, and you can try to enforce it.

SCULLY pulls her gun on him. They speak in hushed tones.

superior : agent scully , we trust you ' ll make the properly scientific analysis.

They all chase the WOMAN WHO LOOKS LIKE SCULLY, catching only glimpses.

SCULLY: (sound distorted) Somebody call a medic!

A child prodigy, pint-sized chess champion who Mulder and Scully first investigated in 1997 after a failed attempt on the boy's life.

DOGGETT's voice stops SCULLY and she turns back to him.

Scully: Necessity is the mother of invention.

SCULLY runs back out of the room toward the agents.

SCULLY is looking on the shelves for the fish food.

THOMAS SCULLY has a busy law office in Lake County, Indiana.

SCULLY: Stop there! Right there! Now come on through the window nice and easy.

SCULLY: Why do I get the feeling they'd be happy if we never found him at all?

Under the Haunting Music, SCULLY enters MULDER's apartment.

SCULLY's apartment. She's putting WILLIAM to sleep. She gently lowers him into his cot. He's almost asleep.

interrogation room . martin wells is sitting at one side of the room in an orange prison jumpsuit . scully and doggett enter.

After they are laid off, they may find that they qualify for DI, as is the case for many of Mr Scully's clients.

SKINNER at SCULLY's bedside in the hospital.

SCULLY: We can let our fears get the better of us. We can, uh, imagine things, make connections.

This is not about you scully, they're doing this to me.

SCULLY is on the verge of both happiness and despair.

SCULLY: Look, I don't understand. You are the Assistant Director. Who is going over your head on this?

So, who did you tick off to get stuck with this detail, Scully?

Oh my Scully, Agent Scully, you are my one true love.

SCULLY: I think I know Mulder as much as anybody.

Right, I'll talk to Scully. You guys head back to the school.

SCULLY: "John Doggett. " Kersh's task force leader. You might have just introduced yourself.

SCULLY: What good are you to Mulder if you give them the power to ruin your career?

SCULLY: (defiantly) You said it. I didn't.

SCULLY's voice is cracking. She is barely holding back tears.

SCULLY: Look, there's nothing. If you're looking for Mulder, you're wasting your time. Are you listening to me?

MULDER leans closer to SCULLY and they kiss.

Oh my Scully, Agent Scully, when will you be mine?

SCULLY: I don't even know the question.

Scully, you're pointing your weapon at a friend.

SCULLY looks around at everyone in the room.

He and SCULLY look at each other.

(To the PRINCIPAL) Keep an eye out the window. (notices SCULLY and SKINNER) What are you doing here?

Mulder : Scully. . . (running to Scully) Just wanna open the car door for you.

Agent Scully tells us she was home last night. We see from your phone log, you were here until at least after 10

SCULLY: Then what are you doing here?

SCULLY: What do you want to get on me, Agent Doggett? What is it you hope to find?

SCULLY: (on phone) How many phones are you tapping? How many agents are you doing surveillance on?

DOGGETT: Kid went out the window. (notices SCULLY and SKINNER) What are you doing here?

SCULLY: I'm looking for a patient, a boy, 12 years old . He may still be in this building.

mulder : that ' s over ten years ago , scully.

(Wanting to talk to SCULLY) What's going on? What is this?

SCULLY: Well, then whose stupid idea is this?

SCULLY: What is this? ! Excuse me. Can somebody please tell me what's going on here?
