To Skinner:
"This is damn weird."
To Skinner:
"I don't care how devoted they were. These people wouldn't just lie here and let their leader bash their brains in. I got to figure at least one of them would have had a problem with that."
To Kersh:
"Tipet was paranoid but nothing indicates he was ready to take the lives of his own people or our men."
To Skinner:
"If I'm working this case, I'd appreciate a heads up before you tell the Deputy Director any more science fiction stories."
To Skinner:
"This whole story doesn't make a damn bit of sense."
To Skinner:
"It's a ceremonial axe used over a thousand years ago to cleave the skulls of unbelievers. This was required
reading for Tipet's followers."
To Skinner about Scully:
"I've got 22 people dead, and she's taking personal time?"
To Skinner:
"Well, I'm supposed to believe this guy doped his way into another plane of reality? That his spirit is going around killing people?"
To Skinner:
"Then tell me why he's doing it. If he's looking for God, why is he killing people? Just 'cause I'm assigned to the X-Files you want me to think like Scully or Mulder would. You got the wrong guy. I need facts, not wild ideas."
To Scully:
"Yeah, well, it's easy to be discreet when you don't know what's going on. Are you okay?"
To The Lone Gunman:
"Can I help you gentlemen?"
To The Lone Gunman:
"You're the guys Scully told me about. Mulder's friends?"
To The Lone Gunman:
"You publish the "Lone Gunman" newspaper?"
To Kersh:
"Case isn't over yet, sir."
To Kersh:
"We have no murder weapon... no forensic evidence. Unless we accept Tipet's own beliefs which you yourself characterize as preposterous..."
To Kersh:
"We have no way of explaining how he killed any of these people."
On Phone:
"Agent Scully, I think we caught the guy who did it. But it... it still it... it just doesn't add up. (sigh) It's
the damnedest thing I ever saw. I know that this sounds strange, but there's a, there's a... part of me says what if... what if this guy was right? What if I shouldn't have let him die? I'm not making a whole lot of sense. Maybe I just need some sleep. If you get this message... and feel up to it... you give me a call."
To Skinner:
"I'm not sure... I'm awake."
To Skinner:
"Last night I dreamt Tipet was inside my house holding an axe. I thought I woke up this morning. I thought I was awake, but-but then..."
To the Dream Tipet:
"I'm not going to let you do that."
To Scully:
"You just saved my life, Agent Scully."
To Scully:
"Tipet thought he'd find God by looking in the darkness inside himself."
To Scully:
"In my dreams, I see... I saw terrible... violent images that... scared the living daylights out of me. These things are a part of me. I can't deny that, but... maybe... maybe they didn't come from me."
