Informations classées X :

- La scène de la bagarre entre Skinner et Mr X a été imaginée et écrite par Chris Carter. Cette dernière a d'ailleurs du être rejouée par les acteurs à la demande de Rob Bowman qui ne les trouvaient pas convaincants à la première prise. Les deux hommes se sont alors donné à fond et ont même fait s'effondrer une partie du décor lors de la seconde prise !

- La scène de la sortie du sous-marin de la banquise a demandé 140 tonnes de neige et de glace!

Dans la Mer de Beaufort, un sous-marin se prépare à faire feu sur une épave quand une grande lumière et un signal très aigu surviennent. Le sous-marin perd la maîtrise de l’appareil. Le capitaine exige que le sous-marin se rende à la surface malgré les 15 mètres de glace au-dessus d’eux.

Scully vit toujours un dilemme : Qui est le vrai Mulder ? Décidant de se fier à son instinct, elle menace le Mulder qui se tient devant elle mais celui-ci prend alors l'apparence du Bounty et la frappe avant de la jeter sur une petite table en verre. Inconsciente, elle est donc incapable de se défendre et il l’emmène. Lorsque le vrai Mulder et Samantha arrivent, ils ne peuvent que constater sa disparition. Samantha dévoile que la seule façon de tuer le mercenaire est de viser la base de son cou (comme les clones). Elle ajoute que le sang du mercenaire est toxique pour les humains et qu'une fois qu'on y a été exposé, un rétrovirus se forme dans le sang. La seule solution pour sauver l'humain et donc de garder le rétrovirus endormi est de refroidir le corps ou de le garder à température ambiante. Si on le réchauffe, le sang épaissit et le contaminé décède. Elle révèle alors à Mulder l'oirigine des clones Gregor à Mulder, une origine diffénte de celle rapportée par Chapel/Bounty à nos héros dans l'épisode précédent. Selon elle, les Gregors (dont son père adoptif fait partie) sont en réalité la progéniture de deux aliens venus pour coloniser la Terre à la fin des années 1940 qui souhaitent créer une race hybride, mi alien mi humaine, afin de faire coopérer les deux races et ainsi éviter que l'une ne prenne le dessus sur l'autre. Pour ce faire, ils doivent se servir d'un matériel génétique humain "pur" : c'est la raison pour laquelle ils travaillent majoritairement dans des cliniques d'avortement afin de subtiliser les foetus pour leurs expériences. De crainte de voir leur espèce être polluée et dépérir, leurs compagnons restés sur leur planète d'origine ont décidé de les éliminer en envoyant un mercenaire. Ils sont interrompus par Skinner qui frappe à la porte. Samantha assure à son frère qu’il n’est pas le mercenaire. C'est alors que le téléphone sonne : c'est Scully. Toujours captive du Chasseur, elle lui transmet un message : elle sera échangée contre une femme que connaît Mulder. Elle n'a pas le temps d'en dire plus parce qu'elle doit raccrocher. Notre pauvre Fox est, à son tour, face à un dilemme crucial : Scully ou Samantha? Déterminé à tout faire pour ne perdre ni l'une ni l'autre, il demande son aide à son patron. Un rendez-vous est fixé sur un pont situé près de Bethesda. Mulder et Samantha attendent l'arrivée du Bounty et sa captive dans une voiture alors que Skinner est en planque, un peu plus loin, avec un tireur d'élite. Comme prévu, Dana est rendue à Fox en échange de Samantha qui insiste pour que son frère la laisse partir. Au cours de l'échange, la soeur de Fox frappe le Bounty alors qu'au même instant le tireur d'élite vise la base de cou du mercenaire. Celui-ci chute du haut du pont emportant Samantha avec lui. Les recherches pour les retrouver ne donnent rien et Mulder se résoud à annoncer la nouvelle à son père. Ce dernier reproche à son fils le décès de sa fille et s'en va, en colère et déçu, après lui avoir remis une enveloppe laissée par sa soeur à son attention. En l'ouvrant, il découvre qu'elle comprend une carte d’accès ainsi qu’une adresse. Il décide de se rendre sur place. Arrivé sur les lieux, il est contacté par Scully qui lui annonce que le corps de sa soeur a été retrouvée. Elle raccroche et constate immédiatement que le corps de Samantha fond à la chaleur et se transforme en une sorte de gelée verte et toxique : c'est un clone ! Mulder parvient à la même déducation que sa partenaire quand, en enquêtant dans le bâtiment, il découvre des dizaines de clones de sa soeur en train de travailler dans un laboratoire. Elles révèlent qu'elles ont manipulé Mulder en envoyant l’une des leurs pour se faire passer pour "Samantha" afin qu’il protège le clone original. Elles prétendent aussi connaître l’emplacement de la vraie Samantha. Mulder, se rendant compte qu’il a été dupé et furieux, refuse d’abord d’aider et tente de partir mais est assommé par le chasseur de primes qui a déniché la cachette des clones.  Le mercenaire déclenche un incendie et tue toutes les Samantha avant de s'en aller. Fox échappe à la mort de justesse grâce à des pompiers dépêchés sur place. Un peu plus tard, après avoir constaté qu'aucune trace des clones ou de leurs travaux n'a échappée aux flammes, Mulder rencontre X au Kennedy Center et exige qu'il lui communique la position du chasseur de primes.  Mr X lui révèle alors que son vaisse se situe dans les glaces de la mer de Beaufort et que ce dernier a été repéré par un sous-marin. Le gouvernement a envoyé des navires sur place pour empêcher le mercenaire de s’enfuir et le détruire. Mulder (bien sûr!) décide d'y aller pour obtenir vengeance mais aussi obtenir des réponses et envoie un e-mail à Scully en l'incitant à ne pas le suivre. Scully, qui n'a pas encore ouvert sa boîte e-mail, remarque sa disparition lorsqu’elle va à son appartement et voit des journaux s'entasser sur le pas de sa porte. Ce n'est qu'en se connectant à son ordinateur avec ses codes qu'elle prend connaissance du départ de Mulder et de son souhait de ne pas la voir le suivre. Elle fait alors tout pour le retrouver : demander l’aide de Skinner et même de X. Skinner commence par refuser mais il le regrette quant à X, il refuse tout simplement de l'aider. Skinner, sachant qu'il peut trouver Dana chez son partenaire, s'y rend et rencontre X dans l'ascenseur. Comprenant que ce dernier sait où se trouve son agent, ils se battent et Skinner a le dessus et parvient à obtenir la position de Mulder. Position qu'il communique à Scully qui se rend immédiatement sur place.

Pendant ce temps, sur une banquise, Mulder touve le sous-marin et y pénètre . A l'intérieur, il découvre que les membres de l'équipage sont tous morts mais que l'un d'eux a, bizarrement, survécu. Fox comprend très vite que ce dernier est le mercenaire. Sa supposition étant correcte, ils se battent et Mulder finit par se saisir de son arme. Il tente de viser la base du cou de son adversaire mais le manque. Il est alors exposé à son sang et s'intoxique. Le mercenaire le sort du sous-marin et le jette à l’extérieur et fait partir l'engin. Mulder s’éloigne pour ne pas se blesser quand il plonge. Découvert peu après par une équipe de secours commandée par Scully depuis Washington, il est conduit en urgence à l'hôpital militaire le plus proche. C'est là que Scully arrive en catastrophe. Mulder est en état d’hypothermie et (comme cela va de soi) les médecins souhaitent le réchauffer. Scully s'y oppose formellement et, après avoir pris les choses en main, elle l'en retire et le réanime. Aux soins intensifs, Scully veille sur lui pendant plus sieurs jours. Plusieurs traitements antiviraux et plusieurs transfusions guérissent Mulder. Lorsqu’il se réveille, Scully l’accueille avec un grand sourire. Mulder annonce qu’il n’a pas trouvé ce qu’il voulait mais il a trouvé ce qu’il a longtemps cherché : le besoin de comprendre.

00:00:03,088 --> 00:00:04,464
Il va s'écraser.

2
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:08,218
Ces hommes sont des clones ?

3
00:00:08,385 --> 00:00:10,887
Sans protection, nous sommes morts.

4
00:00:11,054 --> 00:00:12,097
À qui maman parle-t-elle ?

5
00:00:13,515 --> 00:00:14,391
À ta sœur.

6
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,060
Je suis en danger, Fox.

7
00:00:23,108 --> 00:00:25,360
Scully, c'est moi. Où es-tu ?

8
00:00:27,821 --> 00:00:29,447
Tu m'entends ?

9
00:00:37,330 --> 00:00:41,084
MER DE BEAUFORT, 140 KM AU NORD
DE DEADHORSE, ALASKA

10
00:00:42,127 --> 00:00:45,672
USS ALLEGIANCE,
300 MÈTRES DE FOND

11
00:00:50,301 --> 00:00:51,553
Capitaine.

12
00:00:56,307 --> 00:00:57,684
Qu'avez-vous ?

13
00:00:57,851 --> 00:01:01,062
Mystère. On vient d'enregistrer un écho.

14
00:01:03,398 --> 00:01:05,108
Ça a l'air de flotter.

15
00:01:05,275 --> 00:01:09,195
Oui. Il est à 200 m sous la glace
et fait 80 m de long.

16
00:01:09,362 --> 00:01:11,281
- Il fait du bruit.
- Comment ?

17
00:01:11,448 --> 00:01:14,075
Il émet un signal radio perceptible,

18
00:01:14,242 --> 00:01:16,870
mais il reste incompréhensible.

19
00:01:18,204 --> 00:01:20,665
Passez-moi le Pacific Command
par satellite.

20
00:01:22,792 --> 00:01:27,255
Amiral, nous avons trouvé quelque chose.
On dirait un navire.

21
00:01:29,382 --> 00:01:31,092
Oui, monsieur, c'est ça.

22
00:01:32,844 --> 00:01:36,181
On fait du repérage,
mon équipage n'est pas...

23
00:01:40,351 --> 00:01:41,603
Oui, monsieur.

24
00:01:43,021 --> 00:01:44,272
Compris, monsieur.

25
00:01:47,734 --> 00:01:51,404
Mettez le cap sur 0,4,7.

26
00:01:52,489 --> 00:01:53,531
Vers cet objet ?

27
00:01:54,908 --> 00:01:56,493
- Salle des torpilles.
- Oui.

28
00:01:56,576 --> 00:01:58,953
Visez la cible. Préparez-vous à tirer.

29
00:01:59,037 --> 00:02:01,372
Identifions cet objet d'abord !

30
00:02:01,539 --> 00:02:02,874
On obéit aux ordres.

31
00:02:17,388 --> 00:02:19,140
Le réacteur est en panne.

32
00:02:20,517 --> 00:02:23,937
- Salle des machines.
- Rien ne marche. Il ne reste que les accus.

33
00:02:24,062 --> 00:02:26,648
J'y vais. Préparez-vous à faire surface.

34
00:02:30,485 --> 00:02:31,986
Faire surface ?

35
00:02:32,654 --> 00:02:34,531
On est sous la banquise !

36
00:03:21,494 --> 00:03:23,997
La vérité est ailleurs.

37
00:03:31,963 --> 00:03:34,591
Scully, tu es là ?

38
00:03:37,093 --> 00:03:39,304
Scully, que se passe-t-il ?

39
00:03:41,097 --> 00:03:42,473
Non, désolée.

40
00:03:45,393 --> 00:03:46,436
Qui était-ce ?

41
00:03:47,353 --> 00:03:48,938
Un faux numéro.

42
00:03:49,772 --> 00:03:51,399
Où étais-tu, Mulder ?

43
00:03:51,816 --> 00:03:55,069
Je t'ai cherchée jusque chez toi,
sans succès.

44
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:56,446
Mais je suis là.

45
00:03:57,655 --> 00:03:58,948
Tu devais m'appeler.

46
00:03:59,282 --> 00:04:01,743
Je l'ai fait. Tu n'as pas répondu.

47
00:04:02,243 --> 00:04:03,453
Mains en l'air !

48
00:04:03,870 --> 00:04:04,662
Quoi ?

49
00:04:04,829 --> 00:04:06,873
J'ai dit : mains en l'air !

50
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,249
- Pourquoi ?
- Obéis !

51
00:04:09,375 --> 00:04:11,169
Scully, c'est moi !

52
00:04:11,586 --> 00:04:13,504
Je ne sais pas qui tu es.

53
00:04:14,422 --> 00:04:15,965
Avec la main gauche,

54
00:04:16,132 --> 00:04:20,470
je vais sortir ma carte d'identité
de ma poche. Ne tire pas !

55
00:04:21,012 --> 00:04:22,430
Les mains en l'air !

56
00:04:27,810 --> 00:04:28,686
Où est-il ?

57
00:04:34,233 --> 00:04:35,652
L'appel, c'était lui ?

58
00:04:38,404 --> 00:04:39,781
Dis-moi où il est.

59
00:04:41,866 --> 00:04:43,701
Je ne comprends pas.

60
00:04:55,546 --> 00:04:56,798
Scully ?

61
00:05:04,764 --> 00:05:06,307
Il était là.

62
00:05:19,904 --> 00:05:21,572
- Elle est vivante.
- Ah ?

63
00:05:21,739 --> 00:05:22,615
Il me cherche.

64
00:05:22,782 --> 00:05:24,701
Elle l'a autorisé à entrer.

65
00:05:24,867 --> 00:05:28,579
Elle ne savait pas.
Il a dû se faire passer pour toi.

66
00:05:30,498 --> 00:05:32,041
Il va te contacter.

67
00:05:32,208 --> 00:05:35,586
Il va te demander ma vie
contre celle de Scully.

68
00:05:35,753 --> 00:05:37,130
Mais pourquoi ?

69
00:05:37,296 --> 00:05:39,632
- Je peux le tuer.
- Comment ?

70
00:05:39,799 --> 00:05:41,300
En perçant son crâne.

71
00:05:41,467 --> 00:05:42,510
Pas surprenant !

72
00:05:42,677 --> 00:05:46,264
Oui, mais c'est le seul moyen de le tuer,
et ça doit être précis.

73
00:05:46,347 --> 00:05:48,599
- Je crois que ça peut marcher.
- Tu crois ?

74
00:05:49,017 --> 00:05:53,104
Ses pouvoirs sont exceptionnels.
Tue-le, sinon tu mourras.

75
00:05:53,354 --> 00:05:55,273
- Comment ?
- À cause du sang.

76
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,108
Il est toxique, mortel.

77
00:05:57,650 --> 00:05:59,777
Cela doit paraître incroyable...

78
00:06:00,194 --> 00:06:01,738
Non, pas du tout.

79
00:06:01,988 --> 00:06:04,073
Je te crois. Comment le trouver ?

80
00:06:04,407 --> 00:06:07,326
C'est lui qui nous trouvera.

81
00:06:17,211 --> 00:06:18,629
Il va appeler.

82
00:06:18,796 --> 00:06:20,715
- Ah ?
- Je sais ce qu'il veut.

83
00:06:20,882 --> 00:06:22,050
Et s'il échoue ?

84
00:06:22,425 --> 00:06:24,010
Je sais que c'est dur.

85
00:06:24,177 --> 00:06:26,095
Pas dur, incroyable.

86
00:06:26,304 --> 00:06:27,180
Tu ne me crois pas.

87
00:06:27,722 --> 00:06:29,515
Pourquoi es-tu revenue ?

88
00:06:29,724 --> 00:06:30,892
Je te l'ai dit.

89
00:06:31,059 --> 00:06:33,811
Tu en as dit trop peu. Je ne sais rien

90
00:06:33,978 --> 00:06:37,106
sur tes parents ou l'homme
qui veut te tuer.

91
00:06:42,820 --> 00:06:45,990
Ceux que tu cherches
descendent de deux visiteurs.

92
00:06:46,616 --> 00:06:50,870
Ces clones ont tenté d'établir une colonie
sur Terre à la fin des années 40.

93
00:06:50,995 --> 00:06:52,872
- Une colonie ?
- En quelque sorte.

94
00:06:52,955 --> 00:06:55,374
Leur communauté
s'est dispersée par nécessité.

95
00:06:55,750 --> 00:06:59,504
Des clones de mes parents
vivent dans tout le pays.

96
00:07:00,004 --> 00:07:01,089
Que veulent-ils ?

97
00:07:02,006 --> 00:07:05,384
Selon eux, nous avons mal
pris soin de la planète.

98
00:07:06,094 --> 00:07:09,305
Et un jour, ils en hériteront naturellement.

99
00:07:09,597 --> 00:07:10,807
Et en attendant ?

100
00:07:11,891 --> 00:07:14,602
Par hybridation, ils tentent de remédier

101
00:07:14,769 --> 00:07:18,940
à la cause de leur dispersion :
leur nature de clone.

102
00:07:20,191 --> 00:07:22,485
Et les cliniques d'avortement ?

103
00:07:23,027 --> 00:07:24,987
Ils veulent du tissu fœtal.

104
00:07:25,446 --> 00:07:28,533
Ils ont finalement trouvé
un moyen de mêler

105
00:07:28,699 --> 00:07:31,410
l'ADN humain à l'ADN extra-terrestre.

106
00:07:33,412 --> 00:07:36,290
Cet homme... Pourquoi doit-il les tuer ?

107
00:07:37,458 --> 00:07:39,794
L'expérience n'était pas autorisée.

108
00:07:39,961 --> 00:07:44,173
Elle a été vue comme une altération
de la pureté de la race.

109
00:07:44,549 --> 00:07:48,845
Un chasseur de primes a été envoyé
pour exterminer la colonie.

110
00:07:49,428 --> 00:07:51,514
C'est une belle histoire.

111
00:07:51,681 --> 00:07:54,308
Mais j'en ai entendu beaucoup récemment.

112
00:07:55,977 --> 00:07:58,563
Je n'ai aucune raison de te mentir.

113
00:08:00,690 --> 00:08:02,817
Fais confiance à ta sœur, Fox.

114
00:08:24,505 --> 00:08:25,548
Qui est-ce ?

115
00:08:28,718 --> 00:08:29,760
C'est Skinner.

116
00:08:37,852 --> 00:08:39,270
Mulder ?

117
00:08:39,770 --> 00:08:41,314
C'est ouvert.

118
00:09:03,336 --> 00:09:04,670
Installez-vous.

119
00:09:07,924 --> 00:09:09,926
Pourquoi est-ce éteint, ici ?

120
00:09:10,676 --> 00:09:12,261
Ordres du médecin.

121
00:09:14,222 --> 00:09:15,640
Vous allez bien ?

122
00:09:15,890 --> 00:09:17,266
Oui, très bien.

123
00:09:17,850 --> 00:09:19,685
J'ai tenté de vous joindre.

124
00:09:20,519 --> 00:09:21,938
Ma ligne est coupée.

125
00:09:24,065 --> 00:09:27,693
Saviez-vous que Scully
a incarcéré quatre hommes ?

126
00:09:27,860 --> 00:09:29,237
Ils ont disparu.

127
00:09:30,947 --> 00:09:32,198
Ce n'est pas lui.

128
00:09:33,950 --> 00:09:35,701
Bon Dieu, qu'y a-t-il ?

129
00:09:36,911 --> 00:09:39,747
Voici ma sœur, Samantha Mulder.

130
00:09:40,456 --> 00:09:42,833
L'agent Scully a disparu.

131
00:09:43,042 --> 00:09:44,543
Comment ça, disparu ?

132
00:09:49,298 --> 00:09:50,341
Mulder, c'est moi.

133
00:09:50,508 --> 00:09:51,384
Où es-tu ?

134
00:09:51,550 --> 00:09:53,469
Dans une cabine téléphonique.

135
00:09:54,220 --> 00:09:58,099
Il a mon arme et me tuera
s'il n'a pas ce qu'il veut.

136
00:09:58,266 --> 00:09:59,183
C'est quoi ?

137
00:09:59,850 --> 00:10:01,894
La femme qui est avec toi.

138
00:10:02,061 --> 00:10:03,938
Il dit que tu sais qui.

139
00:10:06,816 --> 00:10:07,900
Négocions, alors.

140
00:10:08,067 --> 00:10:12,154
Il ne veut pas négocier.
Il veut faire un échange.

141
00:10:12,446 --> 00:10:13,364
Passe-le-moi.

142
00:10:14,532 --> 00:10:17,660
Sois au pont de Bethesda dans une heure.

143
00:10:17,827 --> 00:10:19,495
Il me faut plus de temps.

144
00:10:23,708 --> 00:10:25,918
Où est-elle ? Que négociez-vous ?

145
00:10:26,085 --> 00:10:30,381
Vite ! Si vous voulez m'aider,
c'est maintenant ou jamais.

146
00:10:33,217 --> 00:10:37,346
PONT DU MÉMORIAL,
BETHESDA, MARYLAND

147
00:10:49,859 --> 00:10:51,444
Mulder est en position.

148
00:10:55,990 --> 00:11:00,161
Il faut le faire sortir de la voiture
et tirer immédiatement.

149
00:11:00,328 --> 00:11:01,203
La base du cou.

150
00:11:01,370 --> 00:11:03,914
Ces types touchent leur cible à 200 m.

151
00:11:11,255 --> 00:11:13,716
Ne prends pas de risques inutiles.

152
00:11:56,634 --> 00:11:57,885
Faites-la sortir.

153
00:12:37,174 --> 00:12:38,300
Visez juste.

154
00:12:53,232 --> 00:12:54,108
Plus près.

155
00:12:55,025 --> 00:12:56,402
Encore plus près.

156
00:13:05,035 --> 00:13:06,412
Scully, ça va ?

157
00:13:07,496 --> 00:13:08,747
Oui, je vais bien.

158
00:13:32,730 --> 00:13:33,564
Raté !

159
00:13:37,359 --> 00:13:39,028
Il n'y a aucune issue.

160
00:13:39,195 --> 00:13:41,822
Le pont est bloqué aux deux extrémités.

161
00:13:43,157 --> 00:13:44,241
Lâchez-la !

162
00:13:45,868 --> 00:13:46,994
Où est-elle ?

163
00:13:47,495 --> 00:13:48,621
Lâchez-la !

164
00:14:04,929 --> 00:14:06,222
Samantha !

165
00:14:19,777 --> 00:14:21,153
Écartez-vous !

166
00:14:23,781 --> 00:14:25,032
C'est bon !

167
00:14:25,991 --> 00:14:28,244
Il y a des débris sous le pont.

168
00:14:35,709 --> 00:14:37,127
Sortie de l'hôpital ?

169
00:14:37,461 --> 00:14:40,881
Oui. Je voulais revenir. Quoi de neuf ?

170
00:14:41,382 --> 00:14:44,301
Rien. Crois-tu qu'elle ait survécu ?

171
00:14:45,719 --> 00:14:48,973
Peut-être. Mais l'eau ne fait que 3 degrés.

172
00:14:49,139 --> 00:14:53,185
Elle doit être en hypothermie.
Des personnes ont survécu

173
00:14:53,352 --> 00:14:55,145
après des heures comme ça.

174
00:14:55,938 --> 00:14:57,982
Pourquoi ne m'as-tu rien dit ?

175
00:14:59,525 --> 00:15:01,402
Je ne pouvais pas.

176
00:15:01,569 --> 00:15:02,778
Pourquoi ?

177
00:15:04,363 --> 00:15:05,906
Tu n'aurais pas voulu.

178
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:09,702
C'est vraiment ta sœur ?

179
00:15:10,869 --> 00:15:12,538
Pourquoi cette question ?

180
00:15:12,705 --> 00:15:14,957
Parce qu'au motel, c'était toi.

181
00:15:15,124 --> 00:15:16,750
- Et pas toi.
- C'est elle.

182
00:15:18,210 --> 00:15:20,838
- Et cet homme ?
- Un extra-terrestre.

183
00:15:23,048 --> 00:15:24,216
Skinner le sait ?

184
00:15:24,592 --> 00:15:28,762
Je lui ai déjà dit. Maintenant,
je dois le dire à mon père.

185
00:15:35,769 --> 00:15:38,355
Pourquoi m'as-tu demandé de venir ?

186
00:15:42,526 --> 00:15:44,028
Que se passe-t-il ?

187
00:15:49,825 --> 00:15:52,620
Samantha a disparu, papa.

188
00:15:55,539 --> 00:15:56,707
Je l'ai perdue.

189
00:16:01,462 --> 00:16:03,213
Comment ça, perdue ?

190
00:16:07,926 --> 00:16:09,637
Il y avait cet homme.

191
00:16:14,058 --> 00:16:17,686
Il voulait échanger ma coéquipière
contre Samantha.

192
00:16:20,898 --> 00:16:25,569
Tu l'as laissé prendre ta sœur.
C'est ce que tu essayes de me dire ?

193
00:16:27,071 --> 00:16:29,406
Je ne peux pas t'expliquer,

194
00:16:31,950 --> 00:16:34,703
mais il fallait que je le fasse.

195
00:16:38,540 --> 00:16:40,584
C'était ta décision ?

196
00:16:44,046 --> 00:16:45,881
Oui.

197
00:16:50,469 --> 00:16:52,096
Je vais le dire à maman.

198
00:16:53,097 --> 00:16:57,851
Sais-tu qu'une nouvelle disparition
de ta sœur va achever ta mère ?

199
00:17:03,982 --> 00:17:05,401
Le sais-tu ?

200
00:17:14,785 --> 00:17:16,495
Je suis désolé, papa.

201
00:17:18,163 --> 00:17:19,665
Je suis désolé.

202
00:17:24,878 --> 00:17:26,296
Je suis désolé.

203
00:17:36,265 --> 00:17:37,516
Ta sœur...

204
00:17:38,392 --> 00:17:42,396
Samantha a laissé ceci
pour toi à la maison.

205
00:18:02,082 --> 00:18:06,253
"S'il m'arrive quelque chose,
rejoins-moi à cette adresse."

206
00:18:09,548 --> 00:18:12,342
CLINIQUE POUR FEMMES,
ROCKVILLE, MARYLAND

207
00:18:21,935 --> 00:18:23,520
- Mulder.
- Mulder, c'est moi.

208
00:18:24,146 --> 00:18:27,274
Elle m'a laissé un message.
Elle est vivante.

209
00:18:27,733 --> 00:18:30,360
Mulder, reviens ici dès que tu peux.

210
00:18:31,195 --> 00:18:33,781
Pourquoi ?
Tu as trouvé quelque chose ?

211
00:18:34,156 --> 00:18:35,866
C'est ta sœur.

212
00:18:36,700 --> 00:18:39,411
On vient de repêcher son corps.

213
00:18:44,124 --> 00:18:45,501
Je suis désolée.

214
00:18:49,296 --> 00:18:50,172
Tu es sûre ?

215
00:18:53,675 --> 00:18:57,930
Oui. Quoi qu'il en soit,
tu n'as rien à te reprocher.

216
00:18:59,807 --> 00:19:01,809
Y avait-il un deuxième corps ?

217
00:19:03,936 --> 00:19:04,978
Non, rien.

218
00:19:07,564 --> 00:19:09,399
J'arrive dès que possible.

219
00:19:15,364 --> 00:19:17,616
Agent Scully, venez voir.

220
00:19:17,783 --> 00:19:18,700
Qu'y a-t-il ?

221
00:19:18,867 --> 00:19:22,037
La dépouille...
Il se passe une chose étrange.

222
00:20:28,729 --> 00:20:32,232
FBI. Gardez vos mains
loin du corps. Tournez-vous.

223
00:20:37,613 --> 00:20:38,697
Qui êtes-vous ?

224
00:20:45,495 --> 00:20:46,538
Elle est morte ?

225
00:20:47,122 --> 00:20:48,165
Que diable...

226
00:20:48,707 --> 00:20:51,668
Venez, nous n'avons
pas beaucoup de temps.

227
00:20:52,878 --> 00:20:53,754
Qui êtes-vous ?

228
00:20:55,005 --> 00:20:56,048
S'il vous plaît.

229
00:21:14,733 --> 00:21:15,859
Des mensonges...

230
00:21:16,360 --> 00:21:18,862
Vous risquiez d'être manipulé.

231
00:21:19,404 --> 00:21:21,615
Il va venir. Dépêchons-nous.

232
00:21:22,032 --> 00:21:23,283
Qui va venir ?

233
00:21:26,036 --> 00:21:28,372
L'homme qui doit nous tuer.

234
00:21:30,248 --> 00:21:31,291
Il est mort.

235
00:21:32,834 --> 00:21:35,629
- Comment ?
- Une balle à la base du crâne.

236
00:21:35,879 --> 00:21:36,755
C'est sûr ?

237
00:21:38,090 --> 00:21:41,385
Il est tombé d'un pont.
Avec l'une d'entre vous.

238
00:21:43,595 --> 00:21:46,181
Rien n'est sûr ! Il vous a peut-être suivi.

239
00:21:47,849 --> 00:21:49,101
Venez avec moi.

240
00:21:49,267 --> 00:21:51,061
Par ici, agent Mulder.

241
00:22:05,867 --> 00:22:07,953
Nous sommes toutes superflues.

242
00:22:09,246 --> 00:22:12,249
Elle, c'est notre modèle original.

243
00:22:12,416 --> 00:22:13,667
Sauvez-la.

244
00:22:22,259 --> 00:22:23,468
Je ne peux pas.

245
00:22:23,927 --> 00:22:26,138
Si, vous n'avez pas le choix.

246
00:22:26,847 --> 00:22:28,306
Non, je...

247
00:22:28,473 --> 00:22:30,600
Si, j'ai le choix.

248
00:22:31,059 --> 00:22:33,520
Et je choisis de sortir d'ici.

249
00:22:34,771 --> 00:22:36,106
On sait où elle est.

250
00:22:37,941 --> 00:22:41,028
Sinon, comment connaîtrions-nous
tout à son sujet ?

251
00:22:46,575 --> 00:22:47,993
Il est là.

252
00:23:37,375 --> 00:23:38,752
J'en ai trouvé un !

253
00:23:40,712 --> 00:23:43,215
Nous allons vous sortir de là.

254
00:23:43,381 --> 00:23:44,508
Et les autres ?

255
00:23:44,674 --> 00:23:46,885
Par chance, vous êtes seul.

256
00:23:47,469 --> 00:23:51,723
- Il y avait des femmes.
- Non, personne d'autre que vous.

257
00:23:51,890 --> 00:23:53,850
Non ! Cherchez encore !

258
00:23:55,811 --> 00:23:58,855
QUARTIER GÉNÉRAL DU FBI,
WASHINGTON, DC

259
00:23:59,022 --> 00:24:01,191
Après son intoxication,

260
00:24:01,358 --> 00:24:05,779
Mulder a été soigné et guéri
à l'hôpital des Bons Samaritains.

261
00:24:06,446 --> 00:24:10,951
À sa requête, on a fouillé sans
relâche la clinique d'avortement,

262
00:24:11,118 --> 00:24:14,663
mais aucun corps de femme n'a été trouvé.

263
00:24:14,830 --> 00:24:17,624
Mon rapport est incomplet sur ce dossier.

264
00:24:17,791 --> 00:24:20,877
De nombreux aspects restent inexpliqués,

265
00:24:21,044 --> 00:24:24,381
y compris l'identité des personnes sosies.

266
00:24:24,798 --> 00:24:28,927
L'existence d'extra-terrestres
ne peut pas être prouvée.

267
00:24:29,302 --> 00:24:32,430
L'homme qui les aurait
éliminés est en fuite.

268
00:24:32,597 --> 00:24:34,683
Il est accusé du meurtre

269
00:24:34,850 --> 00:24:38,687
d'un agent du FBI,
dont le corps est en quarantaine

270
00:24:38,854 --> 00:24:41,982
à l'institut fédéral des
maladies infectieuses.

271
00:24:42,149 --> 00:24:45,026
La cause de sa mort serait une thrombose.

272
00:24:45,193 --> 00:24:48,780
Mais il semblerait qu'il ait été infecté
par un virus

273
00:24:48,947 --> 00:24:51,700
dont l'origine reste inconnue.

274
00:24:51,867 --> 00:24:56,705
L'analyse de ce virus permettra sans
doute de résoudre cette affaire.

275
00:24:57,956 --> 00:24:59,875
C'est un rétrovirus ?

276
00:25:00,500 --> 00:25:02,586
Oui, mais d'un type inconnu.

277
00:25:02,919 --> 00:25:04,880
Vous le reconnaissez ?

278
00:25:05,547 --> 00:25:09,301
La thrombose aurait-elle été
une réaction au virus ?

279
00:25:09,467 --> 00:25:12,262
Oui. Le virus engendre une surproduction

280
00:25:12,429 --> 00:25:15,640
de globules rouges.
Maintenant, regardez ça.

281
00:25:16,474 --> 00:25:19,060
Nous avons pratiqué une culture.

282
00:25:19,728 --> 00:25:21,104
Et ensuite ?

283
00:25:21,271 --> 00:25:24,733
On a baissé la température de trois degrés.

284
00:25:25,192 --> 00:25:27,444
Le virus est inhibé par le froid.

285
00:25:27,611 --> 00:25:28,486
Totalement !

286
00:25:28,904 --> 00:25:32,449
Ce rétrovirus devient inactif
à basse température.

287
00:25:34,910 --> 00:25:38,538
Hier, nous avons repêché
un corps presque congelé.

288
00:25:38,705 --> 00:25:40,707
En dégelant, il s'est corrodé.

289
00:25:41,166 --> 00:25:42,042
Corrodé ?

290
00:25:42,876 --> 00:25:45,962
Si vous trouvez autre chose,
appelez-moi.

291
00:25:49,341 --> 00:25:52,093
CENTRE KENNEDY,
WASHINGTON, DC

292
00:26:02,771 --> 00:26:04,648
Vous vouliez me voir ?

293
00:26:05,315 --> 00:26:07,984
- Comment était l'opéra ?
- Soporifique.

294
00:26:08,151 --> 00:26:10,612
Je préfère les rencontres en privé.

295
00:26:11,947 --> 00:26:13,823
Désolé. J'ai besoin de vous.

296
00:26:14,157 --> 00:26:16,117
L'entracte est fini.

297
00:26:16,618 --> 00:26:18,328
Que savez-vous ?

298
00:26:18,620 --> 00:26:19,788
Tous morts.

299
00:26:21,456 --> 00:26:25,043
L'un d'entre eux est vivant.
Le tueur. Où est-il ?

300
00:26:26,169 --> 00:26:29,714
Un nucléaire sous-marin
a localisé son navire il y a 5 jours.

301
00:26:30,298 --> 00:26:33,134
Ils ont tenté de le détruire, sans succès.

302
00:26:33,301 --> 00:26:37,806
Une escadre a quitté Anchorage
ce matin pour l'empêcher de partir.

303
00:26:39,099 --> 00:26:40,475
Je dois y aller.

304
00:26:41,726 --> 00:26:45,355
Pour gagner la guerre,
menez les bonnes batailles.

305
00:26:45,522 --> 00:26:47,732
Celle-ci est perdue d'avance.

306
00:26:55,407 --> 00:26:57,492
Mulder, c'est moi. Tu es là ?

307
00:27:37,949 --> 00:27:41,828
Scully, quand tu auras ce message,
je serai loin d'ici.

308
00:27:42,704 --> 00:27:45,665
Je refuse que tu me suives là où je vais.

309
00:27:45,957 --> 00:27:50,795
Je ne veux pas que mes histoires
gâchent ta vie et ta carrière.

310
00:27:51,546 --> 00:27:55,467
Tu avais raison, il faut savoir
s'imposer des limites.

311
00:27:55,633 --> 00:27:57,886
Les tiennes s'arrêtent ici.

312
00:27:58,428 --> 00:28:00,638
Je t'appellerai dès que possible.

313
00:28:04,351 --> 00:28:05,602
Monsieur ?

314
00:28:09,105 --> 00:28:12,150
Excusez-moi d'arriver
sans avoir été annoncée.

315
00:28:14,486 --> 00:28:15,987
Qu'y a-t-il, Scully ?

316
00:28:16,529 --> 00:28:18,239
Peut-on parler en privé ?

317
00:28:20,241 --> 00:28:21,284
De quoi ?

318
00:28:21,993 --> 00:28:23,078
De Mulder.

319
00:28:30,627 --> 00:28:31,795
Il est parti.

320
00:28:33,380 --> 00:28:34,255
Où ça ?

321
00:28:34,422 --> 00:28:37,425
Je l'ignore. Je pensais
que vous le saviez.

322
00:28:38,718 --> 00:28:42,305
Avant-hier, il m'a dit
qu'il partait en vacances.

323
00:28:43,139 --> 00:28:46,518
Mais je crois qu'il n'en a pas fini
avec sa sœur.

324
00:28:49,646 --> 00:28:52,649
Peut-on le contacter sans passer par le FBI ?

325
00:28:57,821 --> 00:28:59,155
Impossible, Scully.

326
00:28:59,447 --> 00:29:00,323
Aidez-moi !

327
00:29:02,117 --> 00:29:06,663
Agent Scully, vous et moi avons
des responsabilités envers le FBI.

328
00:29:06,830 --> 00:29:11,376
Par ses actions, l'agent Mulder
a violé toutes les règles du FBI.

329
00:29:11,543 --> 00:29:13,336
Il n'a rien respecté.

330
00:29:13,503 --> 00:29:15,380
Il m'a sauvé la vie !

331
00:29:17,549 --> 00:29:21,428
S'il en attendait autant de vous,
vous sauriez où il est.

332
00:29:28,059 --> 00:29:30,562
Fermez la porte en sortant, Scully.

333
00:31:02,070 --> 00:31:02,987
Où est-il ?

334
00:31:04,572 --> 00:31:07,742
Désolé, j'ai dû me tromper d'appartement.

335
00:31:10,828 --> 00:31:11,829
Où est Mulder ?

336
00:31:13,289 --> 00:31:14,874
Je dois savoir, merde !

337
00:31:15,041 --> 00:31:17,794
Vous devez faire erreur sur la personne.

338
00:31:17,961 --> 00:31:19,712
Je perds du temps !

339
00:31:25,009 --> 00:31:25,885
Désolé,

340
00:31:26,803 --> 00:31:28,596
je ne peux pas vous aider.

341
00:31:40,900 --> 00:31:42,235
Excusez-moi.

342
00:31:42,402 --> 00:31:45,029
Vous lui avez dit ce qu'elle devait savoir ?

343
00:31:49,951 --> 00:31:52,036
Vous compliquez les choses.

344
00:31:52,287 --> 00:31:54,372
Je ne complique rien.

345
00:32:09,304 --> 00:32:11,973
J'ai tué pour moins que ça.

346
00:32:12,599 --> 00:32:15,393
Tirez et vous tuerez deux hommes.

347
00:32:15,852 --> 00:32:18,104
Dites-moi où est Mulder.

348
00:32:25,945 --> 00:32:28,698
Il est parti pour Tacoma, Washington.

349
00:32:28,865 --> 00:32:31,951
De là, il a rejoint Deadhorse, en Alaska.

350
00:32:35,538 --> 00:32:38,708
Il a ensuite loué un véhicule tout terrain,

351
00:32:38,875 --> 00:32:41,294
pour traverser la banquise.

352
00:32:41,878 --> 00:32:44,255
Les coordonnées de sa destination.

353
00:32:50,094 --> 00:32:51,137
Mais comment...

354
00:32:52,263 --> 00:32:53,848
Sources officieuses.

355
00:35:46,521 --> 00:35:47,396
Vous êtes ?

356
00:35:48,356 --> 00:35:49,315
Lieutenant Wilmer.

357
00:35:49,482 --> 00:35:50,399
Sortez de là !

358
00:35:53,569 --> 00:35:54,445
Sortez !

359
00:36:02,328 --> 00:36:03,996
Que vous est-il arrivé ?

360
00:36:05,832 --> 00:36:07,542
Je ne sais pas.

361
00:36:09,418 --> 00:36:11,379
Nous avons eu une panne.

362
00:36:14,674 --> 00:36:17,134
On a dérivé pendant des jours.

363
00:36:17,301 --> 00:36:19,720
Puis nous avons heurté un...

364
00:36:19,887 --> 00:36:22,098
Ne me regardez pas !

365
00:36:23,224 --> 00:36:27,728
Nous avons fini par remonter
et briser la couche de glace. Voilà.

366
00:36:29,939 --> 00:36:31,691
Pourquoi fuyiez-vous ?

367
00:36:33,359 --> 00:36:35,111
Un homme est venu.

368
00:36:38,364 --> 00:36:41,993
Il a condamné une partie
de l'équipage à l'asphyxie.

369
00:36:42,535 --> 00:36:45,329
Puis, il a exécuté l'autre partie.

370
00:36:51,294 --> 00:36:53,629
Je pensais que vous étiez lui.

371
00:36:53,796 --> 00:36:56,257
Comment avez-vous survécu ?

372
00:36:59,010 --> 00:37:02,179
Je me suis caché sous le quartier-maître.

373
00:37:04,724 --> 00:37:06,267
J'ai fait le mort.

374
00:37:11,689 --> 00:37:14,901
Mais que faites-vous ? Vous êtes fou ?

375
00:37:16,652 --> 00:37:18,112
Je suis fatigué.

376
00:37:18,279 --> 00:37:21,365
Je vous lâcherai si vous me dites la vérité.

377
00:37:21,532 --> 00:37:23,034
Où est ma sœur ?

378
00:37:23,868 --> 00:37:25,161
Que dites-vous ?

379
00:37:25,328 --> 00:37:26,412
La base du crâne.

380
00:37:26,954 --> 00:37:31,250
Dites-moi où est ma sœur et
vous pourrez rejoindre votre navire.

381
00:37:32,501 --> 00:37:33,753
S'il vous plaît !

382
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:35,880
Vous faites fausse route.

383
00:37:48,184 --> 00:37:51,062
J'aurais pu vous tuer plusieurs fois déjà.

384
00:37:52,313 --> 00:37:53,522
Où est-elle ?

385
00:37:56,442 --> 00:37:59,820
La réponse vaut-elle vraiment
la peine de mourir ?

386
00:38:00,363 --> 00:38:01,238
Où est-elle ?

387
00:38:10,790 --> 00:38:12,541
Dites-moi où elle est !

388
00:38:16,796 --> 00:38:18,422
Elle est vivante.

389
00:38:20,299 --> 00:38:22,093
Tu peux mourir maintenant ?

390
00:40:14,622 --> 00:40:15,873
Aucun changement.

391
00:40:19,502 --> 00:40:22,296
Dana Scully, sa coéquipière.
Quel est son état ?

392
00:40:22,463 --> 00:40:24,006
Il souffre d'hypothermie.

393
00:40:24,423 --> 00:40:26,217
Non ! Sortez-le de là.

394
00:40:26,467 --> 00:40:27,843
Il va mourir !

395
00:40:28,010 --> 00:40:32,014
Si vous le gardez là, vous allez le tuer.
Seul le froid le maintient en vie.

396
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:33,933
Arrêt cardiaque !

397
00:40:34,433 --> 00:40:36,102
Une ampoule d'adrénaline !

398
00:40:36,477 --> 00:40:38,479
Vous faites erreur.

399
00:40:38,646 --> 00:40:42,525
Il porte un rétrovirus
qui cause de l'hyperviscosité.

400
00:40:43,192 --> 00:40:44,819
Sortez d'ici !

401
00:40:44,985 --> 00:40:46,112
Infirmière !

402
00:40:46,737 --> 00:40:49,406
C'est une thrombose qui ralentit le cœur.

403
00:40:49,573 --> 00:40:52,368
Son rythme a chuté à cause du froid.

404
00:40:52,868 --> 00:40:57,581
Non, la seule chose qui le maintient
en vie est justement le froid.

405
00:40:57,748 --> 00:41:00,584
Écoutez-moi, sinon vous allez le tuer !

406
00:41:03,712 --> 00:41:05,548
Sortons-le, maintenant !

407
00:41:06,132 --> 00:41:07,383
Chargé et prêt.

408
00:41:07,550 --> 00:41:08,676
Déchargez !

409
00:41:10,553 --> 00:41:12,638
- Pas de pouls.
- Non.

410
00:41:12,721 --> 00:41:14,807
Déchargez !

411
00:41:17,351 --> 00:41:19,603
Je sens un pouls faible.

412
00:41:19,728 --> 00:41:21,856
Je veux une ampoule d'adrénaline.

413
00:41:22,231 --> 00:41:24,775
Perfusez à 1 000 unités par heure.

414
00:41:24,942 --> 00:41:27,069
Donnez-lui du plasma frais.

415
00:41:27,236 --> 00:41:30,114
- Il n'est même pas...
- Il va s'en sortir.

416
00:41:38,539 --> 00:41:42,209
Les transfusions et
le traitement à base d'antiviraux

417
00:41:42,376 --> 00:41:46,755
ont permis d'améliorer graduellement
l'état de santé de Mulder.

418
00:41:47,715 --> 00:41:52,428
Les tests ont montré qu'il avait été
exposé au rétrovirus inconnu,

419
00:41:52,595 --> 00:41:55,014
dont l'origine reste un mystère.

420
00:41:56,599 --> 00:42:00,352
L'équipe qui a sauvé Mulder
n'a vu ni le sous-marin,

421
00:42:00,519 --> 00:42:02,855
ni l'homme que Mulder cherchait.

422
00:42:03,063 --> 00:42:06,192
Des aspects de ce dossier
restent inexpliqués,

423
00:42:06,358 --> 00:42:10,070
suggérant ainsi
des phénomènes paranormaux.

424
00:42:10,779 --> 00:42:14,325
Mais si l'on accepte de telles conclusions,

425
00:42:14,491 --> 00:42:19,038
on abandonne tout espoir d'expliquer
les choses scientifiquement.

426
00:42:20,122 --> 00:42:23,334
Certains aspects ont
bouleversé ma croyance

427
00:42:23,500 --> 00:42:25,586
en un univers ordonné.

428
00:42:26,045 --> 00:42:29,506
Cela n'a fait que renforcer
mon besoin de savoir,

429
00:42:29,673 --> 00:42:34,511
de comprendre ces aspects
qui semblent défier toute logique.

430
00:42:35,930 --> 00:42:40,768
La science a permis d'isoler le
virus auquel Mulder a été exposé.

431
00:42:41,685 --> 00:42:45,648
Et la science a permis
de comprendre son comportement.

432
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,400
Et au bout du compte,

433
00:42:48,776 --> 00:42:52,488
c'est la science qui a sauvé
la vie à l'agent Mulder.

434
00:43:19,473 --> 00:43:20,516
Comment ça va ?

435
00:43:28,857 --> 00:43:32,611
J'ai l'impression d'avoir séjourné
dans un congélateur.

436
00:43:36,448 --> 00:43:37,741
Qui m'a sauvé ?

437
00:43:39,660 --> 00:43:42,329
C'est une escadre de reconnaissance.

438
00:43:42,496 --> 00:43:45,541
Ils t'ont transféré à la base Eisenhower.

439
00:43:47,668 --> 00:43:48,836
Tu m'as écartée.

440
00:43:49,461 --> 00:43:51,213
Je suis désolé.

441
00:43:53,424 --> 00:43:56,051
Je ne voulais pas que tu risques ta vie.

442
00:44:03,017 --> 00:44:05,060
As-tu rempli ta mission ?

443
00:44:15,404 --> 00:44:18,866
Non, mais j'ai retrouvé
ce que je croyais avoir perdu.

444
00:44:25,581 --> 00:44:27,624
La foi pour continuer.

445
00:45:09,500 --> 00:45:10,292
C'est moi qui l'ai fait.

446
00:45:10,417 --> 00:45:11,418

Scene 1
Beaufort Sea - 67 Miles North Of Deadhorse, Alaska; USS Allegiance
Cruising Depth 1,000 Feet

The captain of the submarine runs down a hallway passing officers.

Officer #1 : Sir.

He salutes. The captain keeps moving.

Officer #2 : Captain.

He salutes as well. The captain goes to a ladder and climbs up it to the control room. He moves over to a man at the radar station.

Captain : What have you got?

Radar Officer : I'm not quite sure, sir. We picked up some paint approximately two minutes ago.

The captain looks at the radar screen.

Captain : Looks like the damn thing's just hanging there.

Radar Officer : Yes, sir. It's approximately two-hundred meters below the ice. Looks to be about eighty meters across and it's noisy.

Captain : Noisy, how?

Radar Officer : It's emitting radio signals across the spectrum but it's... it's just random noise, sir. We can't detect any pattern.

Captain : Get me Pacific Command on the satellite uplink.

Radar Officer : Yes, sir.

He stands and adjusts some controls. The captain gets on the phone.

Captain : Yes, admiral. I don't know what we found but it appears to be some kind of craft. [Some murmuring is heard through the phone] Yes, sir, that's correct. [More murmuring] But we're on a cartography mission, admiral. My crew isn't prepared to... [Murmuring] Yes, sir. [More murmuring] Understood, sir. [He hangs up and walks over to the control panel] Set a course heading 0-4-7.

The man at the panel starts flipping switches. The captain moves back over to the radar officer.

Radar Officer : Toward the object, sir?

The captain picks up the phone.

Captain : Weapons room.

A man is heard over the phone.

Man : Aye, sir.

He lock torpedoes on target and prepare to fire on command.

Radar Officer : Captain, shouldn't we at least attempt to identify this object first?

Captain : We have our orders, Lieutenant.

Radar Officer : But, sir...

A loud buzzing suddenly starts. The officers cover their ears and the ship rumbles. People scream to each other as consoles start exploding, knocking people and papers over. The buzzing grows louder. Finally, it stops.

Man : Everything's down, negative!

People still scream to each other as the red warning lights come on.

Captain : Reactor's gone down.

He picks up the phone.

Man : Over here...

Captain : Engine room?

The lieutenant stands up.

Radar Officer : That won't work, captain. We've only got battery power.

The captain hangs up the phone.

Captain : I'm going down there. Prepare to surface at once!

He runs back down the stairs. The radar officer looks around.

Radar Officer : Surface into what? We're under thirty-two feet of glacial ice.

Scene 2
Vacation Village Motorlodge; Germantown, Maryland

Scully stands, ear to the phone. We see Mulder standing behind her, but Mulder is also on the phone.

Mulder : [on phone] Scully? Are you there? Scully? What's going on?

She slowly turns around and looks at Mulder. He mouths the words "who is it?"

Scully : No, sorry.

She hangs up.

Mulder : Who was that?

Scully : It's a wrong number. Where have you been, Mulder? I've been trying to get a hold of you.

Mulder : I, I was trying to reach you. I went by your house but you weren't there. I got here as quickly as I could.

Scully : Why didn't you call when you got my message?

Mulder : I, I, I did call. I, I couldn't get through.

She turns around, grabs her gun and aims it at Mulder.

Scully : Put your hands against the wall.

Mulder : Scully, what are you doing?

Scully : I said put your hands against the wall!

Mulder : What's wrong?

Scully : Do it!

Mulder : Scully, it's me...

He turns around and puts his hands against the wall. Scully moves up to him.

Scully : I don't know who you are.

Mulder : Okay, I'm going to take my left hand and reach into my pocket and get my I.D., okay? Just don't shoot me. I got shot once and I didn't much care for it.

Scully : I said keep your hands up.

Mulder spins around and backhands her with his left then punches her with his right as he spins, sending her flying into the near wall. Her nose is bleeding. She slumps down against the wall as "Mulder" walks up to her.

Mulder : Where is he? [She reaches for her gun but Mulder grabs her by the throat and lifts her above his head against the wall with one hand] That was him on the phone, wasn't it? Tell me where he is.

Scully : I don't know what you're talking about.

He throws her up and she breaks through a glass table. He looks down at her and his face morphs to that of his true identity, the Alien Bounty Hunter. Later, there is a knocking on the door.

Mulder : Scully?

He breaks open the door. The room is dark. He tries the light switch, but it won't work. Samantha is standing behind him in the doorway.

Samantha Mulder : He's been here. [He picks up the lamp and turns it on. He looks down at the broken table. Samantha walks over to him] Your partner is alive.

Mulder : How do you know?

Samantha Mulder : He took her to get me.

Mulder : There's no sign of a break-in. She wouldn't have just let him in.

Samantha Mulder : She might not have known who he was. She might have thought it was you. [They start walking back to the car] He's going to contact you. He's going to say he wants to make a trade, your partner's life for mine.

Mulder : Why, why does he want to kill you?

Samantha Mulder : Because I know how to kill him.

Mulder : How?

Samantha Mulder : By piercing the base of his skull.

Mulder : That would kill anybody.

Samantha Mulder : Yes, but this is the only way to kill him and it must be precise. I'm fairly sure it'll work.

Mulder : Fairly sure?

Samantha Mulder : He's got powers I've never seen before. If it doesn't work, there's a chance you could die.

Mulder : From what?

Samantha Mulder : Their blood is toxic, human exposure to it is fatal. [Mulder looks away, thinking] I know this must seem incredible to you...

Mulder : No, no, no, no, no... that's just it. It doesn't seem incredible at all. Now, how do we find him?

Samantha Mulder : We don't. He'll find us.

Scene 3
Mulder's Apartment

The time is 12:38. Mulder paces around his apartment as Samantha sits on the couch.

Samantha Mulder : He'll call.

Mulder : You're sure?

Samantha Mulder : I know what he wants.

Mulder : And if he doesn't get it?

Samantha Mulder : I know this is hard for you, Fox...

Mulder : No, it's not hard. It's unbelievable.

Samantha Mulder : You don't believe me.

Mulder : After twenty-two years, why come back?

Samantha Mulder : I've explained to you...

Mulder : No, no, you've explained only what you had to! I know next to nothing about these people you call your parents or about the man who wants to kill them.

She stands.

Samantha Mulder : The men you've been seeking are the progeny of two original visitors, clones who have been attempting to establish a colony here since the late 1940's.

Mulder : A colony?

Samantha Mulder : Loosely. The community, by necessity, is dispersed. There are clones identical to my parents living in virtually every part of the country.

Mulder : What are they trying to accomplish?

Samantha Mulder : It's their belief that our stewardship of the planet is being forsaken, and that by default, they'll someday become the natural heirs.

Mulder : And in the meantime?

Samantha Mulder : Through hybridization, they've been working to erase that aspect which has forced the community to scatter... their identical natures.

Mulder : All the clones worked in abortion clinics, why?

Samantha Mulder : Access to fetal tissue. Though the biologies are incompatible, they finally found a way to combine human DNA with alien DNA.

Mulder : And this man... why has he been sent to kill them?

Samantha Mulder : The experiments weren't sanctioned. It was considered a dilution of their species, a pollution of their race. So a bounty hunter was dispatched to destroy them and terminate the colony.

Mulder : That's a good story... but I've heard a lot of good stories lately.

Samantha Mulder : I've got no reason to lie to you. I'm your sister, Fox, you have to trust me.

They look at each other. There is a knock on the door. Mulder picks up his gun off the table, takes it out of the holster and walks to the door.

Mulder : Who is it?

Skinner : It's Skinner. [Mulder looks at Samantha, who runs off to the side] Mulder?

Mulder : The door's open. [Skinner opens the door and sees the apartment is dark. He walks in and looks at Mulder, who is sitting on the couch] Make yourself at home.

Samantha takes a sharp object out of a kitchen drawer. It has a wooden handle with a long metal point sticking out of it.

Skinner : What's going on here, Agent Mulder? Why are the lights out?

Mulder : Orders from my opthamologist.

Skinner : Are you all right?

Samantha starts to sneak up behind him.

Mulder : Yeah, I'm fine.

Skinner : I've been trying to reach you and Agent Scully.

Mulder : I haven't checked my messages.

Skinner : Are you aware that Agent Scully incarcerated four men with the federal marshal's office? And those men are now missing?

Samantha flicks on the lights. Skinner turns around and Mulder stands, pointing his gun at Skinner.

Samantha Mulder : It's all right, it's not him.

Mulder sighs in relief and puts the gun down.

Skinner : What the hell is going on here, Mulder?

Both Fox and Samantha walk towards Skinner.

Mulder : This is my sister, Samantha Mulder.

Skinner : What?

Mulder : I haven't had time to explain, Agent Scully is missing.

Skinner : What do you mean, missing?

The phone rings. Mulder picks it up.

Mulder : Hello.

Cut to Scully, bruised and battered, blood over a good part of her face, standing in a phone booth. The Bounty Hunter skulks around the booth.

Scully : Mulder, it's me.

Cut to Mulder, looking up in shock.

Mulder : Scully, where are you?

He signals to Samantha, who picks up the phone and listens.

Scully : I don't know, I'm... I'm in a telephone booth. [Cut to Scully] He's got my gun, Mulder. He says he's going to kill me if you don't give him what he wants.

Cut to Mulder. Skinner watches Mulder, unsure of what's going on.

Mulder : Well, what does he want?

Cut to Scully.

Scully : A woman who's with you. He says you'll know what I'm talking about.

Cut to Mulder, who's looking at Samantha. She nods.

Mulder : All right, tell him we'll negotiate.

Cut to Scully.

Scully : He doesn't want to negotiate. He says he wants to make a trade.

Cut to Mulder.

Mulder : All right, let me speak to him.

Cut to Scully.

Scully : He wants you to be at Memorial Bridge at Bethesda in one hour.

Cut to Mulder.

Mulder : Scully, I need time, I need more time than that.

Cut to Scully.

Scully : Mulder...

The Bounty Hunter presses down on the switch, hanging up. Cut to Mulder, who hangs up his phone angrily. Samantha hangs up as well.

Skinner : Where is she? What's this about a negotiation?

Mulder : We don't, we don't have any time. If I ever needed your help, your trust, I need it now.

Scene 4
Old Memorial Bridge; Bethesda, Maryland

Mulder and Samantha drive onto the bridge and stop near the middle. Skinner and a sharpshooter are in the bushes. The sharpshooter is building his sniper rifle.

Skinner : Mulder's in position.

He looks through his binoculars.

Mulder : We just need to get him out of the car. Make him think we're going to make a trade. We just need one shot.

Samantha Mulder : To the base of the neck.

Mulder : These guys can hollow out a dime at two-hundred yards. [They look to see another car pulling up] And, Samantha. Do not take any unnecessary risks out there. [She nods. He unbuckles his seatbelt and gets out of the car. The car pulls up and Mulder walks towards it. The Bounty Hunter steps out, gun in hand. He yanks Scully out and grabs her, holding the gun to her head] Scully?

They walk slowly towards him.

Alien Bounty Hunter : Bring her out.

Mulder stares at him, then looks back at Samantha. They look at each other, then Samantha gets out of the car and walks up to Mulder. They stare at each other. Samantha nods slightly, then starts walking towards the Bounty Hunter.

Skinner : Take your shot when you got it.

Samantha and Scully look at each other.

Alien Bounty Hunter : Step close. Right up close.

She slowly moves up to him. Through the rifle's scope, we see him push away Scully and grab Samantha. Scully runs over to Mulder.

Mulder : Scully, you all right?

Scully : Yeah.

Mulder : Yeah?

Scully : I'm okay.

The Bounty Hunter puts his gun away as Scully gets into the car. The Bounty Hunter slowly inches his way back towards his car. Mulder follows. In the scope, we see that Samantha and the alien are moving behind a column. Samantha looks at Mulder then spins around and attacks the Bounty Hunter with the same weapon she was going to use on Skinner.

Sharpshooter : I lost the shot.

The Bounty Hunter grabs Samantha again. Mulder aims his gun.

Mulder : There's no way out. We've got both sides of the bridge covered. Now let her go.

He slowly walks towards them. The Bounty Hunter whispers in Samantha's ear.

Alien Bounty Hunter : Tell me where she is.

Mulder : Let her go! [In the scope, the Bounty Hunter slowly moves into the shot. A shot rings off and the Bounty Hunter staggers. Samantha moans as the Bounty Hunter topples over the side of the bridge and they both plummet into the water. Mulder runs over to the side] Samantha! Samantha!

Morning. Two scuba divers jump off a raft.

Raft Driver : Spread out. [The divers move away from the raft] Clear!

He drives off. A car pulls up next to Mulder who is leaning on the railing. Scully gets out.

Scully : Mulder...

Mulder : You should be in the hospital, Scully.

Scully : I was discharged an hour ago and I asked to come here. Have they found anything yet?

Mulder : Nothing yet. You think she could've survived?

Scully : Maybe... but the water's thirty-six degrees.

Mulder : Well, maybe she went into hypothermic shock. I've heard about people who have lived after being stranded in water like this... eight to ten hours.

Scully : Mulder, why didn't you tell me on the phone that it was her?

Mulder : I couldn't tell you.

Scully : Why not?

Mulder : Cause you'd never let me go through with it.

Scully : Are you sure that it's your sister?

He spins around and looks at her.

Mulder : Why would you even question me on that?

Scully : Because back at the motel, Mulder, it was you but, but it wasn't you.

Mulder : Well, it was her.

He starts walking. She follows him.

Scully : Well, then who is this man and what does he...

Mulder : He's an alien.

He opens his car door.

Scully : Is that what you're going to tell Skinner?

Mulder : I already told Skinner, that was the easy part. Now I got to tell my father.

He gets in.

Scene 5
Mulder's Apartment

Mulder opens the door and his father is standing there.

William Mulder : You didn't have me come all this way to give me good news. [Mulder turns away.] What is it, Fox?

Mulder : Samantha's gone... Dad. I lost her.

William walks in.

William Mulder : What do you mean, you lost her?

Mulder : There was a man... he was holding my partner hostage in exchange for Samantha.

William Mulder : You let this man take your sister. Isn't that what you're trying to tell me?

Fox turns back.

Mulder : I, I can't explain it to you, but, um... I believed I was doing the right thing, Dad.

William Mulder : Was this your decision?

Mulder : Yes. I'll tell Mom.

William Mulder : Do you realize what losing her again is going to do to your mother? [They look at each other. Fox is about to cry] Do you?

Fox tries to say something but can't. He looks down at the floor, crying.

Mulder : I'm sorry, Dad. I'm sorry. I'm... I'm sorry.

William goes to leave when he pulls an envelope out of his pocket.

William Mulder : Your sis... Samantha left this at the house for you.

He puts it down on the table and leaves, slamming the door shut. Mulder walks over to the envelope and opens it. He takes out a letter and a keycard to a clinic that says 4A. The letter reads:

"If anything should happen to me or if we become separated, you must meet me here:
1235 91st St.
Rockville, Maryland"

Scene 6
Women's Health Services Clinic; Rockville, Maryland

Mulder pulls up in his car. As he gets out of the car and walks up the stairs to the gate, his cellular phone rings. He takes it out and turns it on.

Mulder : Mulder.

Scully is on the other end.

Scully : Mulder, it's me.

Mulder : Scully, she left a path in case we got separated. I think she's alive.

Cut to Scully.

Scully : Mulder, I think you should come back as soon as you can.

Mulder : Why? What'd you find?

Scully : It's your sister. [In the background, a team of agents takes Samantha's body off of a raft] We just pulled her body out of the river. [Cut to Mulder, who's face turns to a combination of shock and sadness. Cut back to Scully] Mulder, I'm so sorry.

Cut back to Mulder.

Mulder : Are you sure?

Cut to Scully.

Scully : Yeah. [She sighs.] You know... whatever you're feeling, you can't blame yourself.

Cut to Mulder, who exhales deeply.

Mulder : What about a second body? Did you find a second body?

Cut back to Scully. The agents carry the body up the hill.

Scully : No, not yet.

Cut to Mulder.

Mulder : I'll be there as soon as I can.

He starts down the stairs slowly.

Scene 7
Old Memorial Bridge; Bethesda, Maryland

A female and male agent run around from the back of the FBI ambulance to Scully.

Female Agent : Agent Scully? There's something you need to see.

Scully : What is it?

Female Agent : It's the body we pulled from the water. Something strange is happening.

Scully and the two others run up to the truck. Scully swings open the doors to see Samantha, her face green and bubbling. The three look on in horror and disbelief as Samantha's face fizzes and starts to cave in.

Scene 8
Women's Health Services Clinic; Rockville, Maryland

Mulder stands on the stairs, thinking. He turns back and runs the keycard down through the sensor. The door opens and he walks in. He looks around the room, which is full of boxes, and hears a beeping. He takes out his gun and walks towards the beeping. Stopping at a stairwell, he hears some noise downstairs, which is where he moves. He moves into a room where a person is standing at a desk. He points his gun.

Mulder : Federal agent. Put your hands where I can see them and turn around. Slowly. [The person turns around] Who are you?

She takes off her goggles and doctor's mask. It is Samantha. Mulder lowers his gun.

Samantha Mulder Clone #1 : She's dead, isn't she?

Mulder : What the hell is going on?

Samantha Mulder Clone #1 : Come, please. There's not much time.

She opens a door.

Mulder : Who are you?

Samantha Mulder clone #1:Please.

Mulder tentatively walks into the room and sees another Samantha clone standing at a computer, green vats all around her.

Mulder : It was all a lie.

Samantha Mulder Clone #1 : We needed your help. We knew you could be manipulated.

Samantha Mulder Clone #2 : He'll be coming. We must hurry now.

Mulder : Who?

Another Samantha clone walks up behind him, this one in a lab coat.

Samantha Mulder Clone #3 : The man who's been sent to kill us.

Mulder : He's dead.

Samantha Mulder Clone #1 : How do you know?

Mulder : He was shot. In the back of the neck!

Samantha Mulder Clone #2 : How did he die?

Mulder : He fell off a bridge... with one of you.

Samantha Mulder Clone #3 : Then we don't know for sure. You could have been followed. Come with me. [She walks out of the room] This way, Agent Mulder. [Mulder looks at the first clone then follows her down the hallway to a door. The third clone slides her keycard down a sensor and opens the door] The rest of us are dispensable. [Another clone steps out] She was the first. The one from which we all came. The one you must save.

Mulder realizes that Samantha was indeed not Samantha, that they were all alien clones.

Mulder : I'm not your savior.

Samantha Mulder Clone #4 : You must help us. You have no choice.

Mulder : No, I... I do have a choice and my choice is to walk out of here.

He starts to walk away.

Samantha Mulder Clone #4 : We know where your sister is. [Mulder turns back] Ask yourself, Agent Mulder, how else would we know so much about her?

A fire alarm goes off.

Samantha Mulder Clone #3 : He's here.

She starts to walk away. Mulder turns back and walks down the previous hallway, gun in hand. He walks down a hallway flooded with smoke, coughing. He reaches a doorway and when he turns to go through, he is met with an open fist by the Bounty Hunter. Mulder goes down, nearly unconscious. The Bounty Hunter flicks open his gimlet and steps over Mulder's body. He looks down the hallway, then goes back the way Mulder came. Mulder groans on the floor. The fire trucks arrive. Firemen run around, some pulling out hoses, some running into the building as it burns. A fireman runs through some fire and comes across Mulder.

Fireman : I found one! [He kneels down and starts to help Mulder up, who is coughin)] Sir, we're going to get you out of here.

Mulder : What about the others?

Fireman : We got real lucky. There are no others.

He leads Mulder up the stairs.

Mulder : No. Wait. There were women in here.

Fireman : We looked. You're the only one here.

Mulder : No. You've got to keep looking...

Scene 9
FBI Headquarters; Washington, D.C.

Scully is typing up her report. We hear her speaking over it.

Scully : After being treated for smoke inhalation, Agent Mulder was released from Samaritan Hospital in satisfactory condition. At his request, the abortion clinic where he was found has been searched repeatedly but the bodies of the women he insists perished there were not found. My report on this case remains incomplete. Many aspects continue to defy explanation including the identities of the identical men and women. Agent Mulder's claim of alien origins cannot be substantiated. The man suspected in their disappearances is still at large...

Scene 10
US Medical Research Institute Of Infectious Diseases

A man in a quarantine containment suit is standing over Weiss' body, which has been dissected. Stitch marks run around Weiss' neck and down his chest. He picks up a scalpel off a tray. Scully can still be heard.

Scully : ...and has now been charged with the death of F.B.I. Special Agent Barret Weiss, whose body has been quarantined at the U.S. Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases. Weiss' cause of death involved a thickening of the blood. It is now believed that he was subjected to a virulent strain of virus whose origin and behavior are also unexplainable. [A man in a labcoat, Able Gardner, walks in with Scully, talking] It is my hope that further analysis of this contagion will aid in the solution of this case. [Scully looks through a microscope at a sample of Weiss' blood, which has many long blue viruses in it] This is a retrovirus?

Gardner : Yes, but none of us here have ever seen anything like it. Do you recognize it?

Scully : Was the thickening of Agent Weiss' blood an immunological response to the virus?

Gardner walks around Scully to a computer.

Gardner : Apparently. When the body's exposed to it, it triggers a massive production of red blood cells. Now, take a look at this. [A picture comes up on the screen of blood with a few blue viruses in it] We took a second culture and were able to control it's growth.

Scully : What did you do to it?

Gardner : All we did was lower the temperature by five degrees fahrenheit.

Scully : So the virus is inhibited by cold.

Gardner : Knocked out by it. For some reason, this retrovirus goes dormant at cold temperatures.

Scully : We pulled a body from the river yesterday that was chilled near freezing. When it started to thaw, it began to corrode.

Gardner : Corrode?

Scully : If you find out anything else, you let me know as soon as possible.

She walks out as the man in the containment suit works on Weiss in the back.

Scene 11
Kennedy Center; Washington, D.C.

X walks around the side of the building and walks up to Mulder. He is wearing a tuxedo.

X : You wanted to see me?

Mulder : How was the opera?

X : Wonderful, I've never slept better. I don't like these hasty public meetings, Agent Mulder.

Mulder : I'm sorry. I need your help.

X : It's over. The fat lady is singing.

Mulder : I need to know what you know.

X : Okay, they're all dead.

Mulder : No. One of them is alive, the one who was sent to kill them. Where is he?

X : A nuclear submarine located his craft in the Beaufort Sea five days ago. They were ordered to destroy it but they were disabled. An attack fleet left port from Anchorage this morning to make sure this man does not leave.

Mulder : I got to get up there.

X : You'll only win the war if you pick the right battles, Agent Mulder. This is a battle you can't win.

He walks away.

Scene 12
Mulder's Apartment

Scully knocks on Mulder's door.

Scully : Mulder, it's me, are you there?

She looks down and sees two newspapers stacked. She kicks one, then unlocks the door and goes inside. Sitting down and putting her coat on the chair, she goes to his computer and turns it on. The modem dials a number. She looks at his window and sees an "X" in masking tape on it. The computer beeps and she sees a small box that reads:

"Message Notice
E-mail message waiting
Mulder, 000517"

She double-clicks on it and it expands to an e-mail to Scully with the heading:

"MAIL-238479
TO: Dana Scully, 001813
FROM: Fox Mulder, 000517"

We hear Mulder reading the letter.

Mulder : Scully, when you get this message, I will be too far away for you to stop me, but where I'm going I cannot allow you to follow. I won't let you jeopardize your life and your career for reasons purely personal to me. You were right, Scully... you said a line has to be drawn somewhere. I'm drawing it for you here. I'll contact you when I can.

She gets up.

Scene 13
Walter Skinner's Office; FBI Headquarters; Washington, D.C.

Skinner sits at his desk, writing. Scully opens the door.

Scully : Sir? [He looks at her] I'm sorry to come unannounced, sir, but your assistant wasn't at her desk.

He stands.

Skinner : What is it, Scully?

Scully : May we speak off the record, sir?

Skinner : About?

Scully : Agent Mulder. [He walks over and closes the door] He's gone.

Skinner : Where?

Scully : I don't know, I was hoping that you could tell me or help me to find out.

Skinner : When I spoke to Agent Mulder the day before yesterday, he said he was going to take some time off.

Scully : He told me the same thing but I don't think this matter with his sister is settled. Sir, is there any way that you can reach him through unofficial channels?

He thinks about this.

Skinner : I can't help you, Agent Scully.

He turns back towards his desk.

Scully : Please?

He looks back at her.

Skinner : Agent Scully, you and I both have a greater responsibility to consider and that is to the F.B.I. Agent Mulder's actions in this case are in violation of his duties, his oath of trust and bureau protocol. He's risked my position, your life.

Scully : Agent Mulder has saved my life!

Skinner : If he wanted or expected you to the same, he would have told you where he was going. [He walks back to his desk and sits down] Please close the door on your way out, Agent Scully.

She stares at him for a few seconds, then leaves. Skinner picks up his pen to write, then slams it down and looks back at the door.

Scene 14
Mulder's Apartment - Submarine

Scully turns on Mulder's desk light and shines it through the window on the "X." Later on, she falls asleep. There is a knock on the door and she wakes up. She opens the door and sees X standing there. X is surprised to see her.

Scully : Where is Mulder?

X : Sorry, I must have the wrong apartment.

He starts walking down the hall. Scully walks after him.

Scully : Where's Mulder? I need to know, damn it!

X : I'm sorry, you've mistaken me for someone else.

Scully : I'm losing time!

He presses the button on the elevator and gets in.

X : I'm sorry. I can't help you. [The door closes. X lets out a deep breath and looks down at the floor. The elevator stops and the door opens. X goes to leave but his path is barred by Skinner] Excuse me.

Skinner : Did you tell her what she needed to know? [X looks at him with a strange face, then goes to pull out his gun in realization. Skinner grabs him by his trenchcoat and slams him up against the back wall of the elevator] How hard do you want to make this?

X : No harder than it has to be. [X headbutts Skinner then punches him with a right hand, knocking him back. X once again goes to pull out his gun but Skinner grabs him and punches him in the gut. He then delivers his own headbutt and throws him into the corner. He grabs him by the trenchcoat again but before he can pick him up, X points his gun in Skinner's face. Skinner as a big cut on his forehead] I've killed men for far less.

Skinner : You pull that trigger, you'll be killing two men. Now I want to know where Mulder is. [There is a knock on Mulder's door. Scully opens it and sees Skinner standing there, looking ragged and disheveled. Blood runs down the side of his face from the cut. His nose and lips are bloody] Agent Mulder took a commercial flight to Tacoma, Washington. From there, he caught a military plane to Deadhorse, Alaska. [Scully looks at him, shocked. She motions for him to come in. He does so and walks over to the table] He used his F.B.I. credentials to charter a Rollagon all-terrain vehicle. It's still a ten-mile hike across the ice. [He leans over and writes something down on a piece of paper] These are the coordinates of his final destination.

He hands the paper to Scully.

Scully : How did you get this?

Skinner : Unofficial channels.

Mulder looks at a small digital control he has that charts his location. Carrying a flashlight, he walks a little farther and sees the top of the submarine sticking out above the ice. He walks around and climbs up the ladder. He opens the hull door and climbs inside. The room is dark and quiet. He takes off his hood and unzips his coat. He shines his flashlight around the equipment. No signs of life. He shines it down on the floor and sees a man lying dead. Moving the flashlight more, he sees two more men slumped down on the floor. Suddenly, there is a bang and footsteps.

Mulder : Hey! [He runs after the noise, gun in hand] Stop! [He walks down a ladder and looks tentatively down the hallway. There is another bang and he turns to see a man running down a hallway a few doors down. He runs after him and sees another ladder going down. He hears a clang to the left of him and goes toward it. There are a few more bangs and he spins around to see a man wedged in between a pipe and a wall. The man gasps] Who are you?

Man : Lieutenant Terry Wilmer.

Mulder : Step out of there! [The man slowly starts to move out of his spot] Come out! [He moves out from between the pipe and the wall. Afterwards, the man is sitting down at a desk, the flashlight in front of him, shining in his face. Mulder is standing in back of him and to the right. When the man speaks, it is very shaky, like whimpering] What happened to you?

Man : I don't know. We, uh... we just lost power. We, we... we drifted under the ice for days. Then, um... then we hit a...

He turns his head towards Mulder, who points his gun.

Mulder : Don't look at me, face forward!

The man turns back.

Man : We hit a shallow patch and punched through, okay? That's what happened.

Mulder : So why did you run?

Man : A man came. He, um... he sealed most of the men below decks without any air and, uh... and then he started to execute the rest of us. [Mulder moves directly behind him. The man is crying] Every... they're all dead. I, uh... I thought you were him, I didn't know if you were him.

Mulder : How is it you managed to survive?

Man : I hid under the body of a chief petty officer, okay? I, uh... I played dead. [Mulder flips a switch and the submarine regains power. The man looks around and hears a clicking. He looks to see that Mulder has handcuffed him. Mulder holds the gun to the back of the man's neck] What's this for? What are you, crazy?

Mulder : No. I'm just tired and you're not getting back to your ship until I get the truth. Now tell me where my sister is.

Man : I don't know what you're talking about.

Mulder : Base of the neck! Now, you tell me how I can find her and I'll let you get back to your ship before it's destroyed!

Man : Please... please... [His voice suddenly changes to a very strong tone] You're making a really big mistake.

He tosses Mulder across the room. The man stands and Mulder looks up at him. The man suddenly grows taller and his features change. He is the Alien Bounty Hunter. Mulder looks on in awe as the Bounty Hunter tugs at the handcuff and tosses Mulder back the other way.

Alien Bounty Hunter : If I wanted to, I could've killed you many times before.

Mulder : Where is she?

The Bounty Hunter throws him back down to the floor.

Alien Bounty Hunter : Is the answer to your question worth dying for? Is that what you want?

Mulder : Where is she? [Mulder is thrown back to where he was. He groans and coughs] Just tell me where she is.

Alien Bounty Hunter : She's alive. Can you die now?

The Bounty Hunter starts dragging him out the door, knocking over the chair. Mulder grabs his gun off of the floor and shoots the Bounty Hunter in the back. The alien leaks green and looks back at Mulder, who screams in pain as the toxic gases attack him. Mulder is dragged up the hull and thrown onto the floor. The assassin starts to climb back down, looks at Mulder and closes the hull, snapping the handcuffs in two. Mulder tries to hang on but drops down to the ice and tumbles beneath the wing. He groans and coughs, his face discolored from the cold and the poison. The riding lights come on. The wing turns and assumes a vertical position. The sub starts to sink, the wing speeding down at Mulder, about to chop him in half. With the last of his strength, he rolls out of the way.

Scene 15
Emergency Room; Eisenhower Field

Scully bursts into the emergency room. Mulder is sitting in a tub, an oxygen mask on. The people are talking in the background.

Nurse : No change in B.P. or pulse.

Scully looks at Mulder and holds up her badge.

Scully : I'm Dana Scully, I'm Agent Mulder's partner. What are his vitals?

The doctor walks over to her.

Doctor : He's suffering from extreme hypothermia.

Scully : No... you've got to get him out of the tub.

Doctor : He's dying, he's lost all his body heat.

Scully : You've got to listen to me! If you keep him in there, you're going to kill him! The cold is the only thing that's keeping him alive.

Mulder flatlines.

Nurse : His heart stopped!

Doctor : Give me one amp of epinephrine in a cannula!

Scully : You don't know what you're dealing with here! Agent Mulder has been exposed to a retrovirus resulting in hyperviscosity syndrome.

Doctor : I want you out of my E.R. right now. Nurse!

A nurse walks over to her.

Nurse : Yes, doctor. Ma'am...

Scully : His blood has thickened...

Nurse : Ma'am...

Scully : That's why his heart is failing!

The doctor spins around.

Doctor : No, his heart is failing because he's lost all his body heat!

Scully : No, the only thing saving him right now is the hypermetabolic state induced by the cold. Now, if you don't do what I'm saying, you are going to kill him! [The doctor stares at her for a second. She takes off her coat] Let's get him out of that tub now.

The doctor holds an oxygen mask over Mulder's mouth as Scully readies the defibrillators.

Man : A hundred joules, charged and ready.

Scully : Clear!

Woman : Clear. [She puts the defibrillators down on Mulder's chest and they go off. Still no pulse] No rhythm.

Man : Charge?

Doctor : No.

Scully : Clear!

Woman : Clear.

Scully tries again. A slight pulse picks up.

Doctor : I'm picking up a faint pulse.

Scully puts the defribillators down.

Scully : I want a digoxin 0.1 milligram I.V. Hang a heparin drip at 1,000 units per hour. And get him two units of fresh frozen plasma now.

The nurse runs off to do so.

Doctor : This patient's not even in...

Scully : He's going to make it.

She runs her hand through his hair.

Man : Let's get the plasma going. Okay, let's get a second line ready.

Other Man : Push the adrenaline...

Later, Mulder lays on his hospital bed, oxygen tube in his nose. Scully sits at his bedside. We hear her voice over the scene.

Scully : Transfusions and an aggressive treatment with anti-viral agents have resulted in a steady but gradual improvement in Agent Mulder's condition. Blood tests have confirmed his exposure to the still unidentified retrovirus whose origin remains a mystery. The search team that found Agent Mulder has located neither the missing submarine nor the man he was looking for. Several aspects of this case remain unexplained, suggesting the possibility of paranormal phenomena... but I am convinced that to accept such conclusions is to abandon all hope of understanding the scientific events behind them. Many of the things I have seen have challenged my faith and my belief in an ordered universe... [Later, a nurse opens the door to Mulder's room for Scully, who sits down at his bedside. He no longer has the oxygen tube and is looking much healthier than before] ...but this uncertainty has only strengthened my need to know, to understand, to apply reason to those things which seem to defy it. It was science that isolated the retrovirus Agent Mulder was exposed to, and science that allowed us to understand its behavior. And ultimately, it was science that saved Agent Mulder's life. [Mulder groans. Scully looks up at him and smiles. He slowly turns to look at her] Hey. How you feeling?

Mulder can only whisper.

Mulder : Like I got a bad case of freezer burn. How did I get here?

Scully : A naval reconnaissance squad found and choppered you to Eisenhower Field. [He nods] Thanks for ditching me.

Mulder : I... I'm sorry, I... I couldn't let you risk your life on this.

Scully : Did you find what you were looking for?

Mulder : No. No. But I... I found something I thought I'd lost. Faith to keep looking.

She smiles.

THE END
