00:00:08,120 --> 00:00:11,033
As soon as we're in position
we'll be on a count of five.

2
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,710
- Excuse me, that's my house.
- OK, let her through .

3
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:21,871
- What's going on?
- Mrs Budahas?

4
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:26,551
Your husband's violated security procedure
and stolen an armed military vehicle.

5
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,199
<i>(radio) Team One moving in.</i>

6
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,871
You've got to let me talk to him .

7
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,430
What the hell . . . ?

8
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,956
<i>(radio) We got him.
But he's gonna need a doctor.</i>

9
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,190
Or something .

10
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,039
H i . I got your message.

11
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,873
Sorry for the run-around .
Can I buy you a drink?

12
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,679
It's two in the afternoon ,
Agent Mulder.

13
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,593
That's not stopping
the rest of these people.

14
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,833
- I got something to show you .
- Something you couldn't show me at work?

15
00:02:47,920 --> 00:02:49,991
Let's get a table.

16
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,958
<i>(Mulder)</i> That's Colonel Robert Budahas.

17
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:08,114
He was a test pilot for the military,
stationed at Ellens Air Base, Idaho.

18
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,592
Four months ago, Colonel Budahas
experienced a psychotic episode...

19
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,719
. .and barricaded himself in his home.
Military police were called in .

20
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,993
Budahas was removed and hospitalised
for the treatment of his condition .

21
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,798
Which was what, exactly?

22
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,589
The military will not comment
on the cause, nature or status.

23
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,674
In fact, the military will not comment
on Colonel Budahas at all .

24
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:31,909
What do you mean?

25
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:37,359
Mrs Budahas has neither seen nor heard
from her husband in over four months.

26
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:42,469
Last month , she contacted the FBI
and reported it as a kidnapping .

27
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,349
Why would the military
kidnap one of their own pilots?

28
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,990
That's the $64, 000 question , Scully.

29
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:55,200
Since 1 963, six pilots have been listed
missing in action from Ellens Air Base.

30
00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:00,593
The military say these pilots accepted
the risks of flying experimental aircraft.

31
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,275
It's rumoured they were shot down
at high altitudes...

32
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,432
. .while they were penetrating
Russian air space.

33
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,193
There were other rumours.

34
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,792
I've been tracking this case since
it came through the Boise office.

35
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,793
Last week it was de-prioritised .

36
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,430
They shelved it without an investigation .

37
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,272
So...

38
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,319
So we're going to the <i>spud state</i>
to investigate a kidnapping .

39
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:32,554
I don't get it, Mulder. Does this
have something to do with an X-File?

40
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,520
I thought you only liked
those paranormal-type cases.

41
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,830
Am I missing something here?

42
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,879
Let's just say
this case has a distinct smell to it.

43
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,997
A certain ...

44
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,469
. . paranormal bouquet.

45
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,676
Excuse me.

46
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,790
Leave this case alone, Agent Mulder.

47
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:14,795
What?

48
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,316
The military will not tolerate
an FBI investigation .

49
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,109
Who are you?

50
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,831
I . . . uh . . . can be of help to you .
I've had a certain interest in your work.

51
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:27,595
<i>(knocking)</i>

52
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,479
<i>(man)</i> Sorry.

53
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,153
How do you know about my work?

54
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:36,713
Well , let's just say that I'm in a position
to know quite a lot of things.

55
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,711
Things about our government.

56
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,871
Who are you? Who do you work for?

57
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,750
It's unimportant. I came here
to give you some valuable advice.

58
00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:50,437
You are exposing yourself
and Agent Scully to unnecessary risk.

59
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:55,720
- I advise you to drop the case.
- I can't do that.

60
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,077
You have much work to do, Agent Mulder.

61
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,472
Don't jeopardise the future
of your own efforts.

62
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,639
You OK, Mulder?

63
00:06:27,280 --> 00:06:30,398
Yeah , I'm fine.

64
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,271

00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,671
<i>- Are you there, Mulder?</i>
- Yeah .

70
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,792
<i>The Bureau has it out for us already.</i>

71
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:24,716
<i>It would make us appear stupid if
my field report read like a tabloid story.</i>

72
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,920
I don't wanna talk about it on this line.

73
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,152
I'll talk to you about it on the flight out, OK?

74

<i>Et roars overhead)</i>

75
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:53,555
Hello?

76
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,031
- Mrs Budahas?
- Yes.

77
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,077
We're from the FBI .

78
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,549
Oh , yes. Please, come in .

79
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,117
I started noticing it about two years ago.

80
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,999
Bob developed this rash under his arms.

81
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,276
We'd been doing some renovations

82
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,716
so we thought it was a reaction
to the paint stripper.

83
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,349
But then everything just went crazy.

84
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,397
<i>(Scully)</i> How do you mean?

85
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,911
Bob's whole personality. . .
It was so unpredictable.

86
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,071
He started . . . doing things.

87
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,596
- What kinds of things?
- It was embarrassing at first.

88
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,798
We were having this dinner party once
and , um ...

89
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,520
. . he sprinkled Tetra Meal D over his food .

90
00:08:38,560 --> 00:08:40,437
That's fish food flakes.

91
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:47,870
- Have you talked to him about this?
- I tried . It was extremely difficult.

92
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,031
Bob would get so angry.

93
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,350
He'd yell at the kids for no reason

94
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:56,354
and then he would shake
like he was having a seizure.

95
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,589
- Did he ever talk about his work?
- It was never discussed .

96
00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:02,671
Even before the problems.

97
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,594
I knew he worked on top-secret projects.
Word gets around .

98
00:09:06,680 --> 00:09:09,479
Bob was always a patriot first.

99
00:09:09,560 --> 00:09:13,872
He took loyalty to his country as an oath ...

100
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,396
. .and now they treat us like strangers.

101
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,119
I just want my husband back.

102
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,272
The government is not above the law.

103
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,159
They cannot withhold information .

104
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,880
And then I think, what if he's...

105
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,396
How would I support the family?

106
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,438
You said "word gets around".

107
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,195
Have you ever heard of this
happening to anyone else?

108
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,720
Yeah , Verla McLennen's husband .
He went kinda crazy.

109
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,794
But it's not like he didn't get to come home.

110
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,753
- How long has he been . . .
- Almost two years.

111
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:14,314
The fly-fishing idea was his brother Hank's.
I was upset at first.

112
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,438
But when you're the wife of a test pilot,

113
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,273
you thank God
just to have them home alive.

114
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:25,673
Mrs McLennen , has anyone ever offered
to explain what caused this?

115
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,831
Stress, I guess.

116
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:33,077
You have to understand . The military
deals with things in a certain way.

117
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:38,712
They've given him plenty of therapy
and treatment and I'm thankful for that.

118
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:43,556
They've taken good care of us.
And they do volunteer for their jobs.

119
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,595
<i>(whispers)</i> Really, Anita,

00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,039
Let me know what you find out.

00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,040
What did you make of U ncle Fester?

124
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,830
It's called stereotypy.
It's a syndrome produced by extreme stress.

125
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,959
POWs have suffered from it.
They've studied it in zoo animals.

126
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,395
Yeah , but these guys are test pilots.

127
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,393
They're not supposed to fold
under pressure.

128
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,279
Ever hear of the Aurora Project?

129
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:34,878
That's the unacknowledged code name for
a Defense Department surveillance project.

130
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,917
The Pentagon has admitted
they've been testing

131
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,709
a secret class of sub-orbital spy craft.

132
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:45,476
Maybe these guys are flying those planes.
Maybe they're washouts.

133
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:50,754
You saw the photos in there. Budahas
received a presidential commendation .

134
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,912
He's never washed out
of anything in his life.

135
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:03,113
I've been on hold with the base
for 45 minutes. How about you?

136
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:08,713
Yeah , somebody named Colonel Kissel
will meet with us. . . a week from Friday.

137
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,871
Yeah , right!

138
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,238
Did you say Kissel?

139
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,236
- Colonel Kissel?
- Yes.

169
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,038
I thought it was gonna land
in the parking lot

170
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,476
and I was gonna have to serve 'em lunch .

171
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,598
I'm selling limited-edition prints. 20 dollars.

172
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,399
Down to my last five if you're interested .

173
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:48,839
Put it on my tab.

174
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,472
<i>(whispers)</i> Sucker.

175
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:55,440
What would be the chances
of someone like me seeing a U FO?

176
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:56,919
Catch you outside.

177
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:08,151
Do you wanna see something weird?
Ellens Air Base isn't even on my map.

178
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:09,913
I know. Let's go.

179
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,798
You know?

180
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,999
- Where are we going?
- We got our own map. Sucker!

181
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,040
What do you honestly hope to see?

182
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,191
I don't know. Maybe nothing .

183
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:01,357
Is this why we came out here, Mulder?
To look for U FOs?

184
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:07,718
Yeah , this is gonna look real good
on my field report!

185
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,591
<i>(low rumbling)</i>

186
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,393

00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,151
Scully, wake up !

188
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,351
You gotta see this !

189
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,559
What are they?

190
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,554
I don't know. J ust keep watching .
It's unbelievable.

191
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:05,073
<i>(Scully)</i> That's unreal .
I've never seen anything like it.

192
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,800
They've been doing that for half an hour.

193
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,918
Aircraft can't manoeuvre like that.

194
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,559
What else could they be?

195
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,199
I don't know.

196
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:18,511
Lasers being shot from the ground ,
reflecting up off the clouds.

197
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,911
<i>(crashing, fizzing noise)</i>

198
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,751
Oh , my God !

199

00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,871

202
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,589
- Don't shoot!
- Stay right there.

203
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,751
We didn't do anything .

204
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,511
Come on !

205
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,673
<i>(boy giggles)</i>

206
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,752
That was extreme.

00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,992
- Let's go. You're coming with us.
- <i>(boy)</i> What?

208
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,593
So what <i>exactly</i>
were you guys doing in there?

209
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,911
Well , we were. . . um ...

210
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,594
- We kinda have this spot.
- You know, we kinda kick back, ...

211
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,559
. . listen to some tunes
and watch the air show.

212
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,996
- Were you ever chased out before?
- No, first time.

213
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,356
Our friend showed us a hole in the fence.

214
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,319
One time they dropped these bombs. Whoa !

215
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,118
Yeah , it was kinda heavy.

216
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:28,394
There's a place called the Yellow Base,
where they store all this stuff.

217
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:33,037
And my friend said
that there's land mines all around it.

218
00:19:39,120 --> 00:19:41,077
I've got a 20. Over.

219
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,717
<i>(radio) Roger, Red Bird. Assume fallback
position. We're opening the cage.</i>

220
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,359
Red Bird out.

221
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,035
Sometimes they come in real low
and just put on the skitters.

222
00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:54,238
It's like <i>(howls)</i>
and then they just hang there

223
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,357
and hover without making a sound .

224
00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:01,071
And you just think, you know,
who turned down the volume, right?

225
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,878
What do you think they are?

226
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,520
OK. Everybody thinks that they're U FOs.

227
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:11,238
But I think it's some kind of Star Wars,
cybertech , newfangled hardware, right?

228
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:15,757
They're probably rolling out
for Desert Storm I I or something like that.

229
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,117
Cruise right over Saddam's house,
it'd be like...

230
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,711
Do they look anything like this?

231
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:28,235
No.

232
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,397
They look <i>exactly</i> like that.

233
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,596
- Thanks.
- Later, dude.

234
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,869
- What's that?
- Evidence.

235
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,599
<i>(rock guitar)</i>

236
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,436
Kids today, huh?

237
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,194
You believe it all , don't you?

238
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,550
Why wouldn't I?

239
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,273
Did you see their eyes?
If I were that stoned ...

240
00:21:08,360 --> 00:21:11,113
Ooh , if you were that stoned what?

241
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,318
You could've shown him
a picture of a flying hamburger...

242
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,789
. .and he would have said
that's what he saw.

243
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,752
I wanna show you something .

244
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:27,116
This is a photo of a U FO that reportedly
crashed in Roswell , New Mexico, in 1 947.

245
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:31,114
Now I know you don't believe that story,
but hear me out.

246
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,352
Ellens Air Base,
the same base we're at right now, ...

247
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:38,633
. .the same base that doesn't appear
on your US government map, ...

248
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,679
. . is supposedly where parts
from the wreckage were shipped .

249
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:48,071
Mulder, are you suggesting
that the military is flying U FOs?

250
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:52,273
No, planes <i>built</i> using U FO technology.

251
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:04,069
Mulder, come on .
You've got two blurry photos.

252
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,232
One of them taken almost 50 years ago.

253
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:11,154
And another one
you purchased today in a roadside diner.

254
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,632
- You're going out on a pretty big limb.
- Tell me there isn't a resemblance.

255
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,759
Tell me one good reason
why either of these photos is authentic.

256
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:23,435
You saw exactly what I saw in the sky
tonight. What do you think they were?

257
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:29,755
J ust because I can't explain it, doesn't mean
I'm going to believe they were U FOs.

258
00:22:30,360 --> 00:22:35,912
U nidentified Flying Objects.
I think that fits the description pretty well .

259
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,431
- Tell me I'm crazy.
- Mulder, you're crazy.

260
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:46,031
And it still doesn't explain to me
what happened to Colonel Budahas.

261
00:22:48,360 --> 00:22:50,271
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.

262
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,193
You didn't come to raid my minibar,
did you?

263
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,635
- You ready for this?
- What?

264
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:10,078
We got a message from Mrs Budahas.
Her husband came home last night.

265
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,557
We got your message.

266
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,712
Mrs Budahas, are you OK?

267
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,751
Come inside.

268
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,112
<i>(Scully)</i> What is it?

269
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,271
What? What's wrong?

270
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,349
That. . . is not my husband .

271
00:23:51,120 --> 00:23:54,511
Honey, who are these people?

272
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:10,351
That is not him . That is not my husband .
They've done something to him .

273
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,353
- What are you talking about?
- It's OK. J ust relax.

274
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,954
I'm Special Agent Mulder from the FBI .

275
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,829
We're investigating your disappearance.

276
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:23,754
Can you explain your whereabouts
over the past four months?

277
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,395
- I was in the hospital .
- Here? On base?

278
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,390
I think so.

279
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,994
Colonel Budahas, may I ask your birth date?

280
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,390
November 21 st, 1 948.

281
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,073
And the names of your kids?

282
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,356
Josh and Leslie. They're right there.

283
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,913
Yeah .

284
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:51,434
Green Bay fan .

285
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,079
Yes, sir.

286
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,471
Bet you remember the Super Bowl of '68,
huh? Don Chandler...

287
00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:00,349
Kicked four field goals.
Lombardi's last game.

288
00:25:01,120 --> 00:25:04,590
- Why do I have to answer these questions?
- It's not him .

289
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,436
Colonel Budahas,
you're a pilot, isn't that right?

290
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,033
Yes, sir.

291
00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:18,795
Bet you've flown just about everything
with two wings.

292
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:24,193
I got this hotshot pilot friend who said he
could do an Immelmann at a sustained 8 Gs.

293
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,476
Is that possible?

294
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,436
I-I don't...

295
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:42,110
I can't...

296
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,230
Anita?

297
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,671
I can't remember!

298
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,036
No !

299
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,518
Mulder, would you explain to me
what's going on?

300
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,798
I think they rewired that man's brain .
Some kind of selective memory drain .

301
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,550
The brain doesn't work like that.
You can't just erase certain files.

302
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:12,960
Then you explain it to me.

303
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,351
- There are types of amnesia. . .
- This is not amnesia !

304
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,590
It's something far more deliberate
and insidious.

305
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,758
The science or medical technology

306
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,116
to do what you are suggesting
does not exist.

307
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:28,239
Neither does the technology
to fly the aircraft we saw last night.

308
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,995
They can do this. He should've known
the answer to the question .

309
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,594
It just wasn't in his head any more.

310
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,199
<i>(Scully)</i> Even if they could ,
why would they do it?

311
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,351
To control information .

312
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:47,071
Maybe after his psychotic episode
Budahas became a security risk.

313
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:51,233
It couldn't just be that he had a breakdown
with a concomitant memory lapse?

314
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,278
No, I think men like Budahas are incapable...

315
00:26:54,360 --> 00:26:56,476
. .of dealing with the stress
of flying the aircraft we saw.

316
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,279
Of doing those manoeuvres.

317
00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:02,352
We're talking about a technology
so advanced ...

318
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:06,354
. .that it's taken almost 50 years
to make it work. U FO technology, Scully.

319
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,199
- What the hell . . .
- Hold on !

320
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,751
Please, step out of the car.

321
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:38,033
Do you think if we ignore him he'll go away?

322
00:27:38,120 --> 00:27:40,191
Please, step out of the car.

323
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:42,194
Guess not.

324
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,790
Special Agent Mulder, FBI .

325
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,791
Federal agents.

326
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,397
Wanna tell me what this is about?

327
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,119
National security.

328
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,909
Now get in your car.
You'll be escorted back to your motel .

329
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,230
You'll leave town immediately...

330
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:28,837
. .or assume the consequences
of intense indiscretion .

331
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:37,755
Nothing under Idaho plate CC 1 356?
No plate registered under that number?

332
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,000
<i>(sighs)</i> Thanks, Gail .

333
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,152
No, no, no.
I'm sure the other one's bogus, too.

334
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:46,994
Bye.

335
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:52,518
So, who were those guys?

336
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:57,390
I don't think it was those kids they were
chasing away from the base last night.

337
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,710
I think it was us.

338
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:03,515
They knew we were coming
before we ever arrived .

339
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,558
And they returned Colonel Budahas
as a decoy.

340
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,276
- There's something I didn't tell you .
- Something else?

341
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:20,871
I was approached by a man in DC who
warned me to stay away from this case.

342
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:22,712
He didn't give me his name, ...

343
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,872
- . .and my phone was being tapped .
- What? !

344
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,954
Why would they go to all this trouble?
Out of a need for security?

345
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,674
Security of what?

346
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,551
I think there's
a huge conspiracy here, Scully.

347
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,634
I'm sure they've got a U FO here.
They'll do anything to keep it secret.

348
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,993
Including sacrificing the minds of those
pilots. Because what if the secret got out?

349
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,278
If. . . <i>if</i> that were true, ...

350
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,476
. . it would be a national scandal .

351
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,551
No, you're not thinking big enough .

352
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:03,476
If it were true, it would be confirmation
of the existence of extraterrestrial life.

353
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:10,757
Did you ever stop to think that what we saw
was simply an experimental plane, ...

354
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:14,549
. . like the Stealth bomber
or this Aurora Project?

355
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:19,589
Doesn't the government have a right
and a responsibility to protect its secrets?

356
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,751
Yes, but at what cost?

357
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:27,159
When does the human cost become too high
for the building of a better machine?

358
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,358
These are questions
we have no business asking .

359
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:35,029
Our kidnap victim is no longer outstanding .

360
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,750
Let's get out of here, Mulder,
while <i>you</i> still have a job.

361
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:44,758
Aren't you even curious?

362
00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:02,073
I'm gonna shower.
I'll pack and then we'll get out of here.

363
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,671
<i>(car door shuts)</i>

364
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,036
<i>(car starts)</i>

365
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,519
Mulder! Where are you going?

366
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,431
Right here.

367
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,397
Hey, aren't you guys coming?

368
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,791
No, we've only gone in at night.

369
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,833
This spot where you watched the air show?
How far is it?

370
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,079
45 minutes?

371
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,278
- Will I be able to find it?
- <i>(girl)</i> J ust stay on the path .

372
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,835
What about Yellow Base
where they hangar them?

373
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:03,276
Don't! Don't even . It's like. . . ten miles.

374
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,438
Nobody's ever. . .
nobody's ever been that far!

375
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,638
Hey, don't go past
the edge of the tall weeds.

376
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,431
Oh , man !

377
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,672
Did we tell him
about the land mines and junk?

378
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:19,789
Hey!

379
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,711

. .and I can't seem to get
a long-distance line.

385
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,391
Hello? Hello?

386
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:53,471
Excuse me, my phone's not working . Can I
use yours to make a credit card call , please?

387
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,631
Sure thing .

388
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,233
This one's not working either.

389
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:10,269
Phones are undependable around here.
People say it's the military interference.

390
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,478
But they say that about everything .

391
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,198
Thanks.

392
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,430
H i . I was just looking for you .

393
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:13,076
I knocked but I saw the door was open .

394
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:17,959
- I was in the lobby trying to make a call .
- Phones down again?

395
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,477
<i>(radio) Base to Red Bird.

What are you doing?

398
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:39,514
Excuse me. There's nothing in there.

399
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,436
Get in the car! Hands on the car! Do it!

400
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:03,479
- Put the gun down and we'll talk about it.
- I said hands against the car!

401
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:05,918
Who are you?

402
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:09,880
You're a long way from home.
Nobody wants this to come to violence.

403
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,590
- Where's Mulder?
- We took him to the base.

404
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,478
We waited for him .

405
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:19,110
Get on that walkie-talkie
and find out where Mulder is.

406
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:20,554
I can't do that.

407
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:24,349
You can . Or I'll have
every newspaper in America out here...

408

417
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,078

00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,916
And put your hands on the wheel
where I can see them .

420
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,599
You do anything stupid
and this situation could get big in a hurry.

421

Get in the car, Mulder.

425
00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:01,353
Get in the car!

426
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:13,678
I just wanna say

427
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,151
everything you've seen here
is equal to the protection we give it.

428

It's <i>you</i> who have acted inappropriately.

429
00:40:55,720 --> 00:40:57,313
You OK, Mulder?

430
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,031
I think so.

431

432
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:13,515

433

how your husband was doing .

Oh , he's fine.
He's getting much better now.

Thank you for your concern .

440

They got to her, Scully.
They were here.

441
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:57,318
- They must have threatened her and . . .
- That's enough , Mulder!

442
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,313
We don't know anything !

443
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,277
Anything more than when we got here.

444
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,391
And that's what I'm gonna write
in my field report.

445
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,629
Let's get out of here, Mulder,
as fast as we can .

446

<i>(Scully) Colonel Budahas
was returned to his home, ...</i>

447

disappearance is vague and inconclusive.</i>

<i>. . on a top-secret project involving aircraft
using recovered UFO technology...</i>

<i>by flying these aircraft, is also inconclusive.</i>

<i>Though this agent can corroborate
Agent Mulder's account...</i>

<i>. . of two unidentified flying objects

They erased it.

You have to tell me what it was.

468
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,476

. .why are those who believe in the existence
of extraterrestrial life on this earth ...

471
00:44:40,720 --> 00:44:44,679
. . not dissuaded
by all the evidence to the contrary?

472
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:46,353
Because...

473
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:52,675
. .all the evidence to the contrary
is not entirely dissuasive.

474
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:54,956
Precisely.
