All language subtitles for The X-Files s04e08

Will the witness
please rise and take the oath?

I, Dana Katherine Scully,
swear to tell the truth, the whole truth...

..and nothing but the truth, so help me God.

- I would like to read a prepared statement.
- You may do so.

"I left behind a career in medicine
to become an FBI agent four years ago,...

..because I believed in this country."

"I wanted to uphold its laws, to punish
the guilty and to protect the innocent."

"I still believe in this country."

"But I believe there are powerful men
in the government who do not."

"Men who have no respect for the law
and who flout it with impunity."

- Ms Scully...
- "I have come to the conclusion...

- ..that it is no longer possible..."
- Agent Scully.

This is not a soapbox, Ms Scully.

Your statement
will be entered into the record.

With respect, I would like to finish.

This is not why we are here today.

Then, why are we here, sir?

Agent Scully, do you or do you not know
the whereabouts of Agent Mulder?

Are you or are you not aware
of Agent Mulder's present location?

I decline to answer that question, sir.

Ms Scully, you cannot refuse to answer.

Because I believe answering that question...

..could endanger Agent Mulder's life.

You're an agent of the FBI.

Then if I may finish my statement.

"..that it is no longer possible for me
to carry out my duties as an FBI Agent."

Are you tendering your resignation?
Is that what you're trying to say?

No, sir.

What I am saying
is that there is a culture of lawlessness...

..that has prevented me from doing my job.

That the real target
of this committee's investigation...

..should be the men who are
beyond prosecution and punishment.

The men whose secret policies
are behind the crimes you are investigating.

Tell us what you know
about Agent Mulder's whereabouts,...

..or you will be held
in contempt of Congress.

Agent Scully?

Everything's in order. Have a nice day.

- There you go, sir.
- Here, I'll get that.

All right. Thank you.

- Where are you coming from?
- Japan.

- Did you travel anywhere else?
- The Republic of Georgia.

- The purpose of your trip?
- Government business.

I'm going to ask you
to see the customs official.

What for? I'm traveling
on a United States diplomatic visa.

A random check.
Please proceed through the doors.

- I've got a connecting flight.
- Right through those doors, sir.

Right over here, sir.

What's this about? I have diplomatic papers.
I can't be treated like this.

Is that your only luggage, sir?

- Yes.
- Can you open it for me?

No.

Sir, I'm not offering it as a choice.
Open the briefcase, or we'll open it for you.

I don't have the combination.

Vince?

I need a strip
and full-body-cavity search of this man.

There'll be hell to pay for this treatment.

Would you mind telling me exactly
what kind of diplomatic work you do, sir?

And what material
you're transporting in these?

That is... Those are filled
with biohazardous materials.

Where's the paperwork?
Why aren't the containers marked?

Don't open those. Whatever you do,
that material cannot be exposed...

Listen to me!

Open this door! Somebody open this door!
Somebody!

Somebody open this door!
Let me outta here!

What the hell is this?

Somebody!

Oh, my God! The door!
Please let me out of here!

Oh, my God! Open the door!

Somebody let me out of here!
Get me out now!

Get me out of here! Let me out!

We can't go in too soon.
Be patient. It'll happen.

What makes you so sure?

I've received a series of receipts
for detonation cord,...

..diesel fuel,
and 80 bags of ammonium nitrate...

..purchased in three different states
under three different signatures.

What makes you sure that it's here, tonight?

Last night I got two new receipts:
one for storage space at this address...

..and one to rent a two-ton truck,
both purchased with the same signature.

We could be looking
at the next Oklahoma City.

Who's leaking them?
And why leak them to you?

We've got traffic.

They're leaving.

Hold.

- Go!
- Back it up!

- Get down!
- Drop your weapons!

Federal agents!

Everybody down! Down on the ground!

Back it up!

Drop your weapons
and get down on the ground!

Gas!

Fire!

Get down! Everybody get down!

Open fire!

Mulder!

Cover the driver's side.

Federal agent! I'm armed!
Exit the vehicle now!

The driver's dead.

I counted two men.

Get out of the truck!

Get out of the truck!

Let me see your hands.

Hands in the air!

You son of a bitch.

- Mulder!
- I handed you this bust!

- Come on, Krycek!
- Who do you think sent you those receipts?

Most of the detonation cord was stolen
from a construction site and...

..some of the explosives
were taken from the military base.

Security's just so lax. It's a joke.

Most everything else was over the counter.

Two thousand kilos of boom-boom.

How'd you get involved with these men?

They found me in North Dakota.

They liberated me on a salvage hunt.

When you go underground,
you gotta learn to live with the rats.

I'm sure you had no trouble adapting.

These men are pathetic revolutionaries...

..who'll kill innocent Americans
in the name of bonehead ideologies.

You're full of crap, Krycek.

You're a scumsucker whose
moral dipstick's two drops short of dry.

I love this country.

- What do you want, Krycek?
- Same thing you do.

To find the man who tried to kill me.

The same man who's responsible
for your father's death.

Your sister's.

You want this man brought to justice?

You can't bring these men to justice.

The laws of this country protect these men
under the name of national security.

They know no law.

Then why don't you put a bullet in his head
like you did that man out there?

These men, they fear one thing: exposure.

You expose... him,...

..expose his crimes,...

..you destroy
the destroyer's ability to destroy.

The only thing
that will destroy this man is the truth.

The truth. The truth...

There's no truth!

These men make it up as they go along.

They're the engineers of the future.

They...

They are the real revolutionaries.

I can get them for you too.

We can't help you, Krycek.

Mulder,...

..this is just one bomb I'm sitting on here.

You didn't ask me
how many more I know about.

Your attention, please.

Due to adverse weather conditions...

.. Trans Con flight 78 from Buenos Aires
has been delayed.

Please check the on-screen monitors
in the terminal for a new arrival time.

What flight is he on?

An international charter
that originated in Russia.

- A Turkish airline.
- There it is, Air Lacayo.

Got in at 6:45.

That's 15 minutes ago. Come on, let's go.

- He still has to go through customs.
- No.

He'll be carrying a diplomatic pouch.

That's him.

Sir?

Federal agents. Don't be alarmed.
We just need to speak with you.

Stop right there!

Sir!

Mulder!

Mulder, look.

- Is this some kind of joke?
- What?

Show him.

- What is it?
- Expose it for him, Scully.

What did you get for Halloween,
Charlie Brown?

- Who is it?
- I need to speak with you, sir.

What do you want?

Your authorization to provide a safe house.

A safe house for whom?

This man has information that could
save the lives of innocent Americans.

He'll be safe here.

Relatively safe.

We're not even yet, boy. That's a start.

Give me the keys.

You can't leave me out here!
I'm gonna freeze to death!

Just think warm thoughts.

I know I asked you earlier. You have
absolutely no idea where this came from?

Not its origin, no.

But you have an idea, don't you?

This rock contains
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons...

..fitting the description
of those in fragments of meteorite...

..found recently
in the ice fields of Antarctica.

Are you saying...

That what you're looking at
is quite possibly from Mars.

Over four billion years old.

Is it valuable?

Beyond adding evidence to the debate
over fossilized remains of alien bacteria,...

..it's relatively worthless.

Well, I won't know that
until I'm able to take a core sample.

Which I very much hope
you'll allow me to do.

I think we'd all like to know
what's in that rock.

I didn't realise you lived here.

I just moved in.

- I'd guess you live in an upper floor?
- What do you want from me?

Mulder and Scully intercepted a diplomatic
pouch here in Washington last night.

I'm afraid it's created a problem
in foreign-policy circles.

Quite a problem, actually.

I don't know anything
about any diplomatic pouch.

No?

- Nothing about the matter?
- No, I don't.

Well, I find that hard to believe,
as their supervisory agent.

As a friend, I should advise you...

..that withholding information
on matters of national security...

..is punishable under laws
of treason and sedition.

Thank you.
I'll consider myself advised,...

..as a friend.

I need that pouch, Mr Skinner.

And I need to know
who gave them the order to intercept it.

I'll get back to you.

Wars have broken out
over far less, Mr Skinner.

Far, far less.

Uh-huh. Thank you.

- Got something?
- Big dead end at the State Department.

Customs officials detained another courier
on a similar visa in Honolulu two nights ago.

He was coming from Russian Georgia,
carrying a toxic soil sample.

- Toxic?
- Which leads me to believe...

..that what's in this rock are answers
beyond the existence of extraterrestrial life.

Even beyond the conspiracy
to cover up that existence.

Mulder, that rock contains fossils
of what is believed to be alien bacteria,...

..and even that is under intense debate.

Why all this effort to get it onto US soil?

I think what Krycek has given us
is a pivotal piece to a larger plot.

What he's given us, Mulder, is a rock.

Alex Krycek is a liar and a murderer.

Who wants to expose the same men we do
and will go to any lengths to succeed.

What I'm worried about is you, Mulder.
How far you'll go.

And how far I can follow you.

- Yeah?
- Mulder, where are you?

I'm with Scully,
on our way out to NASA Goddard.

I suggest you head home. I don't know
how to explain myself to the police.

Explain yourself about what?

The police are at my place with a dead body.
They wanna talk to everyone in the building.

- Pull over here.
- What are you doing?

I'm gonna take a cab.

I want you to find out about that rock.
Call me as soon as you do.

Shouldn't be too much longer.

- No, I wasn't home.
- And you live on what floor?

Seventeenth. Walter Skinner.
I'm an assistant director with the FBI.

Oh. My apologies.

I got some bad information that
there's a man hanging from your balcony.

We'll walk out of here like nothing
happened. If anybody speaks to us,...

..you say nothing.

I got no problem.

You put me up here. I'm looking forward
to see how you get me out.

- Stupid-ass haircut!
- I got news for you, Mulder.

When they find out
who's dead down there,...

..there's gonna be no question
whose apartment he was pulled out of.

- Who was he?
- Same guy with the pouch.

- Let's go.
- I say follow the pouch.

- Yeah.
- Mulder, it's me. Listen to me.

Whatever's in that rock,
it appears to be lethal.

What is it?

Dr Sacks, he's...

I don't know, Mulder.
I've never seen this before.

I don't know if he's dead or alive.

You'd better find out. I want you
to get me an address in New York.

Go through the Bureau to get it.

- Who is it?
- Fox Mulder.

- What are you doing here?
- I need your help.

- How did you know where I live?
- FBI database.

I'm sorry. It's a matter of extreme urgency.

A diplomatic pouch left Russia and
arrived here in the US. Two men are dead.

I need to know why.

Do you have its destination?

And its routing entries?

Thank you.

Agent Mulder?

The diplomatic pouch traveled an APEX
route to the Russian province, Krasnoyarsk.

- Krasnoyarsk?
- Port of entry was the city of Norilsk.

That's just north of Tunguska.

- Tunguska?
- Yeah.

- What are you looking for?
- My cell phone.

I'm gonna book myself
on a flight to Krasnoyarsk, Russia.

- I can help you, Agent Mulder.
- Find my cell phone?

No.

With cover credentials.
A diplomatic passport and visa.

Why?

Why are you helping me?

Because I can.

Because there are those of us
who believe in you.

Believe in your search for the truth.

- How long will it take?
- How long do you have?

Where have you been?

Making travel arrangements.

- To go where?
- Follow the pouch.

You're gonna keep me in the dark?

Yeah.

These are level-four suits.

Exactly what he's wearing.

Contamination is impossible unless
there's a tear or a loss of pressurization.

Whatever happened to him,
it's unlikely it penetrated the suit.

What do you think happened?

We won't know until we get in there
and take a closer look.

Look. There's a film over everything.

It looks like spray kicked off the saw blade
when he was cutting into the rock.

Oh, my God!

This man's alive.

He can't be. I mean, he's not breathing.

No, I think he is.
I think he's in some kind of a coma state

or some kind of somatic rigour.

From what?

I don't know,
but we have to get him outta here.

- You're not...
- I'll leave the window down.

If I'm not back in a week, I'll call Scully
to bring you a bowl of water.

Mulder!

Mulder, you're not gonna leave me here!

- What'd you say to me?
- What?

You called me a bad name.

You speak Russian, Krycek?

My parents were Cold War immigrants.
What's it to you?

You've been putting on the miles.

It would help if you had a phone.

I come out here
because there are no phones.

What is it?

- Our courier is dead.
- Yes, I heard. Pushed out of a window.

- Can this expose us?
- No, of course not.

Our necessary and plausible denial is intact.

Then what is your concern?

Last night,...

..CIA Airport Intel had a man using
UN credentials appear on their computers...

..booked on a flight for Krasnoyarsk, Russia.

Who was it?

We haven't determined that
with any certainty as yet, but...

..it appears to be a man
fitting the description of...

..Fox Mulder.

You fool.

You stupid fool.

This must be corrected. It must be handled.

Well, of course it can be.
You know my capabilities in a crisis.

I don't think you realise what's at stake
here,...

..what level this must be carried to.

This will take more than just a good aim!

Senator Sorenson wants to see us?

That's usually
what a letter of summons means.

- But a summons for what?
- I can only guess.

But the fact I'm named
with you and Agent Mulder...

..leads me to believe I've been implicated
in something more serious than I know.

How much more serious, Scully?

It's hard to say.

More serious than
harbouring a known felon?

What about Agent Mulder?
What does he know?

Agent Mulder is endeavouring
to get his own answers, sir.

Where?

- It's five kilometers through those woods.
- Let's go.

You're really going to keep me in the dark,
aren't you?

What are we doing here, Mulder?

June 30, 1908.

Tunguska tribesmen look into the Siberian
sky and see a fireball streaking to Earth.

When it hit the atmosphere,
it created cataclysmic explosions,...

..considered to be the largest single
cosmic event in the history of civilization -

..2,000 times the force of the bomb
that was dropped on Hiroshima.

What was it?

It's been speculated that it was
a piece of a comet or an asteroid...

..or a piece of antimatter.

The power of the blast leveled trees
in a radial pattern for 2,000 kilometers.

No real evidence has ever been found
to provide a satisfying explanation...

..for what it was.

I think somebody found that evidence,...

..and the explanation is something
that nobody ever dreamed of.

What are they doing?

Looks like some kind of mining camp.

I don't think they're miners.

Run!

I don't speak Russian.

Then no one has told you.

Told me what?

That you were brought here to die,...

- ..to wish you were dead.
- I wasn't brought here.

I came here looking for something.

The only thing you will find here
is death and suffering.

- What is this place?
- This place?

A gulag.

A place where the guilty rule the innocent.

We gotta get out of here.

They're gonna torture us.

How do you know?

They were questioning me,...

..trying to get me to confess.

To what?

To being a spy.

What'd you tell them?

That we were stupid Americans
lost in the woods.

Mulder, you're gonna need me in here.

Don't touch me again.

Ah, Agent Scully, Mr Skinner.
Thank you for coming.

It's difficult to decline an invitation
from a member of Congress.

Please, have a seat.

Are you familiar with the penalties
for obstruction of justice?

Is that a rhetorical question, sir?

You know why
you've been called here today?

We have an idea.

We've been looking into the death
of this man outside your apartment,...

..Mr Skinner, and it's raised
some troubling questions.

Such as?

Such as what this man was doing
on your balcony before he fell to his death.

It was your balcony, wasn't it, Mr Skinner?

Perjury is a very serious offence,
particularly for an FBI agent.

We intend to file a report on this matter...

..once we fully understand
what it is that we're investigating.

And...

..Agent... Mulder.

Can you explain why he declined
my invitation to be here today?

Agent Mulder is in the field, sir, seeking
answers to the questions you are asking.

And where is he seeking these answers?

Agent Scully?

- What did you say?
- That I want to see his supervisor.

Do svidaniya.

That man is not your friend.

He speaks differently to the guards.

Formal language, as if to an equal.

You are deceived.

Who are you?

A prisoner, like you.

- But I have committed no crime.
- Then why are you here?

To do the work, like the others.

Like them, I will die in an experiment...

..when there is no longer any use for me.

What kind of experiment?

No!

What are you...?

No!

I made this!
