Mulder : You told me that he told you he knew how to stop Billy Miles. Are you telling me now that you think he's a liar?
John Doggett : He is or he isn't. What the hell difference does it really make?
Mulder : It doesn't make any difference at all unless you want to protect Scully and that baby.
John Doggett : And then what? How long can you keep this up? How long until the next Billy Miles rears his head - the next threat, the next phantom - you ever stop to ask yourself? All the sacrifice, the blood-spill... You've given nearly a decade of your life. Where the hell is it all gonna end?
Mulder : I don't know. Maybe it doesn't.

FBI Deputy Director Alvin Kersh : I'm to take this story seriously? These incidents at the FBI, this account of Agent Scully's birth - I'm to submit this report as quality investigative work, as representative of actual fact?
John Doggett : I signed the report there, sir.
FBI Deputy Director Alvin Kersh : Yeah, I see it, John. And I see her signature here, too.
[turns to Agent Reyes]
FBI Deputy Director Alvin Kersh : ... on an X-File? I'd like to know when you assigned yourself, Agent Reyes.
Monica Reyes : Agent Doggett assigned me, sir.
FBI Deputy Director Alvin Kersh : Agent Doggett cannot just assume the authority of this office.
John Doggett : I assume it because this office is under investigation for a late night meeting between you, Agent Crane, and an intelligence operative named Knowle Rohrer.
Monica Reyes : Both men were presumed dead, but are now missing, in actual fact.
[they begin to walk out of Kersh's office]
FBI Deputy Director Alvin Kersh : You investigate what *I* tell you.
John Doggett : And you put me on the X-Files: that's what I'm investigating.
