• [at a crime scene] 

  Agent Tom Colton : So, Mulder, whaddaya think? This look like the work of little green men?

  Mulder : Gray.

  Agent Tom Colton : Excuse me?

  Mulder : Gray. You said "green men." A Reticulian's skin tone is actually gray. They're notorious for their extraction of terrestrial human livers, due to iron depletion in the Reticulum galaxy.

  Agent Tom Colton : You can't be serious.

  Mulder : Do you have any idea what liver and onions go for on Reticulum?

• Dana Scully : Is this what it takes to climb the ladder, Colton?

  Agent Tom Colton : All the way to the top.

  Dana Scully : Then I can't wait till you fall off and land on your ass.

• Agent Tom Colton : Look, Dana, who'se side are you on?

  Dana Scully : The victim's.

• Scully : This looks like an X-File.

  Agent Tom Colton : Let's not get carried away. I'm going to solve these murders, but what I would like from you is to go over the case histories, maybe come down to the crime scene.

  Scully : Do you want me to ask Mulder?

  Agent Tom Colton : Okay, if he wants to come and do you a favour, great. But make sure he knows this is my case. Dana, if I can break a case like this one, I'll be getting my bump up the ladder. And you, maybe you won't have to be Mrs. Spooky any more.
