Before the exploration of space,
of the moon and planets,

man held that the heavens were
the home and province of powerful gods,

who controlled not just the vast firmament,
but the earthly fate of man himself,

and that the pantheon of
powerful warring deities

was the cause or reason for the human
condition, for the past and the future,

and for which great monuments
would be created, an earth as in heaven.

But in time man replaced these gods
with new gods and new religions

that provided no more certain answers

than those worshiped by his Greek
or Roman or Egyptian ancestors.

And while we've chosen now
our monolithic and benevolent gods

and found our certainties in science,

believers all, we wait for a sign,
a revelation.

Our eyes turn Skyward,
ready to accept the truly incredible,

to find our destiny written in the stars.

But how do we best look to see?
With new eyes or old?

Mama! Papa!

Papa!

Da.

Too bad for you.

It's like the flesh is cooked...

all the way through.

Your authority isn't recognized here.
Only your lies.

These are UN peace keepers.
This is a mission of mercy.

This is a mission of fear.

- Yours and the men you work for.
- I don't know what you mean.

You go back and you tell them
what you've seen here, what you've found.

My name is Marita Covarrubias.

I am a special representative
to the United Nations.

I know who you are.
I know who you work for.

- You go back and tell them...
- Tell them what? What happened here?

Tell them it's all going to hell.

Does the boy know?

- Did he see?
- You tell them to kiss my American ass.

During my last several abductions,

I have experienced no fear whatsoever.

It was the absence of fear that allowed me

to communicate with them,
and them with me.

They've told me that I am an apostle,

here to spread the word of a dawning of
a new age of supernatural enlightenment.

Sensibly, it's not a question
of truth versus fiction,

but of truths which are incomprehensible,

because we have no physics, no real
language for explaining Patient X's story,

much less the existence of extraterrestrials.

Nothing to prepare us for the ontological
shock that is bound to follow...

We quibble and we jaw about
the need for proof, for evidence,

as if it would serve some purpose,
as if it would make a difference,

when what we should be seeking is
exactly what this woman is describing.

Not if they are here, but why,
and what their business is,

In my conversations with her,

she believes this business -
the abductions and the experiments -

are due to their plans for us.

We are not simply breeding cows
for them, as some have suggested,

but subjects, much like we think
of our relationship with God.

There are sites - what she calls lighthouses -
around which will be great activity.

All this conjecture,
the ontological shock you speak of,

for which we're so ill-equipped,

is in my opinion not only false
but dangerous. This woman...

This woman presents
no good or credible testimony

apart from her feel-good message.

- You think she's lying?
- No.

I don't think she's lying. I think...

that if you prepare people enough to believe
a lie, they will believe it as if it were true.

If you tell them a really big lie, like

"There are aliens from outer space",
they will believe it.

And if you suggest that these aliens
are doing bad things to them,

this suggestion will make
certain people believe

that certain psychopathologies
and neuroses

they suffer from can be attributed to that.

Mr Mulder... Agent Mulder,
she has physical ailments.

Are you discounting any belief
in the existence of extraterrestrials?

No, I just question mindless belief.

But you've cited evidence,
made claims yourself.

What I have seen,
I've seen because I wanted to believe. I...

If you look too hard, you can go mad.
But if you continue to look,

you become liberated and you come awake,
as if from a dream,

realizing that the lies simply protect
what they're advertising:

a government which knows that its greatest
strength is not in defense, but in attack.

It's strongly held
by believers in UFO phenomena

that there is military
complicity in abductions.

But what if there is no complicity?
What if there is just the military

seeking to develop weapons
against which there is no defense?

Biological warfare -
which justifies, in their eyes,

making an ass out of the nation
with stories of little green men.

A conspiracy, wrapped in a plot,
inside a government agenda.

Dr Werber?

- It's been some time.
- Almost five years.

I came down expecting to hear
how your work had progressed.

I'm surprised, to say the least.

A lot has changed.

You've abandoned something
you believed so completely,

in spite of what I know about you
from our work,

the memories I helped you recover
about the experience with your sister.

Well, I've come to distrust a lot of things.
I've come to distrust those memories.

- I'm sorry.
- For what?

I've taken a lot of criticism for my work
with alien abductees, and in the field itself.

The regression hypnosis...

I'm not questioning your methods,
Dr Werber. I'm questioning myself,

how I was led to believe through elaborate
staging that my sister had been abducted.

A man with faith can indulge in scepticism...

You don't understand. There's just
too much evidence that it's all a lie.

The conspiracy is not to hide
the existence of extraterrestrials.

It's to make people believe in it
so completely that they question nothing.

So you and I have just been
advocates of insanity all along?

Is this the extreme possibility
you believe in now?

Is Patient X any more credible?

I hope so. I'm her doctor.

I think you should meet her.

I think you might change your mind.

Cassandra?

Hi.

- Fox Mulder.
- Hi.

I'm so glad to finally meet you.
You are a hero of mine.

I am?

I read about you in the news,
about three years ago.

How you helped that man who escaped
from the hospital... Duane Barry.

How he had held those people hostage
at the travel agency

because he was being called by aliens.

You were the only one who believed him.

You may not like me
as much as you like that story.

Oh...

That story saved my life.

How's that?

I have been a multiple abductee
for over 30 years.

I had been afraid to seek help.

Nobody would ever believe me really...

until I read about you.

- That's how I met Dr Werber.
- Cassandra...

He told me that you had been
through hypnotic regression.

That's how you discovered
that your sister was abducted.

- Cassandra...
- Yes?

Are you here voluntarily?

Um... Yes, under doctor‘s supervision.

Whatever it is that you're afraid of,

I suggest that you check yourself out of here
as soon as you can and start living your life.

Uh... Now's not a good time.

Cassandra has the sensation
that she's about to be called,

Now is a time of war and stress
among the alien nations.

The different races, they're in upheaval.

I will be summoned to a place,
just like Duane Barry.

The man you're talking about died
because of what he believed in.

He died after I'd been interrogating him,

after a visit from some men
from our government.

The government's involved.
They don't want us to know about it.

Cassandra...

There was a time when I would have
believed what you say, without a doubt.

There is no doubt, Mr Mulder.

I know what I've experienced. I...

I have been through the terror and tests
more times than I can count.

I have had an unborn foetus taken from me.

But they're not here for the reasons
that you might think.

They're here to deliver a message.

Except something has gone wrong.
There are...

There are other forces at work.

They're going to be calling me. I can feel it.

You of all people need to know about this,

because you're the one
that can do something.

I'm not.

I'm gonna take good care of you.

Agent Scully, my name's Jeffrey Spender.
Special Agent Spender.

Is there something I can help you with?

I feel kinda funny approaching you like this.

I just haven't been able
to reach Agent Mulder.

- About what?
- About somebody he's been talking to.

Somebody who claims
to be an alien abductee,

who I'd prefer he weren't talking to.

You gonna tell me who this is?

This is going to sound weird. Uh...

It's my mother.

- Your mother?
- It's a very long story. Uh...

She's an exceptional person,

but for kind of obvious reasons
I'd rather this didn't get out.

Appearances being what they are.

- Is this part of a case?
- No.

- Then why is he talking to her?
- I don't know.

She just called me and she's...
She's a very disturbed woman.

This is something that caused
a lot of pain about 20 years ago.

I'm just trying to save myself
any extra humiliation.

I'd like to build a reputation here,
not be given one.

I think I understand.

What happened
in Kazakhstan,

there was no one left
to give an accurate account.

- How many bodies were there?
- 41.

All burned beyond recognition.

The result of some kind of
intense biochemical reaction

none of the UN medics had ever seen.

Not in the Gulf, or in any battlefield.

The corpses were literally
carbonized from the heat.

- A new weapon being tested?
- There's no intelligence on that.

There's no clear data on the victims
or their relationship,

but I found at least two of these
among the dead.

I think it's fairly certain
that all the victims had them,

that what was taking place was
a staging for a group abduction.

What the hell is that?

In the final phases before it begins,
there will most likely be assemblies.

- We're years away from that.
- If we're to believe their timetable.

- Unless it's already begun.
- We're 15 years away.

I don't think this was planned.

I think something or someone
set this in motion.

An act of war... against us and our plans.

Krycek was at the burn site
with a unit of Russian soldiers.

- Alex Krycek did this?
- He was there.

Probably acting on the same data we got.

Whether he had any direct involvement in
what happened, he knows what caused it.

Knows how?

He captured a boy at the site,a survivor.
Someone who saw.

What does Krycek want?

- I don't know.
- Well, how do we find out?

- Yes?
- Well, look who's answering the Batphone.

Alex Krycek.

Are those guys too cheap
to offer you a pension plan?

- Where are you?
- I'm in town actually. New York City.

Just tell us what you want.

You've been working on a vaccine
against the black oil.

Unsuccessfully, you know.

Yeah, well, I figured you and your buddies
must have been busy while I've been gone.

Our research continues.

- I'll take everything you've got.
- In exchange for...?

- The boy.
- Why is that in our interest?

Without what he knows,
you ain't gonna need any vaccine.

What does he know?

That's my opening offer. The longer
you wait, the skinnier this kid gets.

Shouldn't that be my picture?

Or is that just you having a little fun?

- Do I look like I'm having fun, Scully?
- You look constipated, actually.

That would make sense. I've had my head
up my rear end for the last five years.

Has this anything to do
with Cassandra Spender?

Cassandra Spender is living proof that the
truth I've been seeking for the last five years

- is the truth of a madman.
- How is that?

One more anal-probing, gyro-pyro,
Ievitating-ecoplasm, alien-antimatter story

and I'm gonna shoot somebody.

Well, I guess I'm done here.

You seem to have invalidated
your own work. Have a nice life.

- How do you know about Cassandra?
- Her son accosted me in the hallway.

He's an FBI agent.

Great.

He's of the same opinion as you, by the way.
That she's not well.

You try to reveal what's hidden,
to incite people with the facts,

but they'd rather believe some nonsense,

refusing to believe
what our government is capable of.

- You've come a long way, Mulder.
- Yeah, and still nobody believes me.

What?

Cassandra Spender was
abducted at Skyland Mountain.

That's where I was taken,
where Duane Barry took me.

The woman is a nut, Scully.

It says here that she has an implant,
in the base of her neck,

Where the government
no doubt removed her brain.

Isn't that what her son
stopped you to say, Scully?

No. He asked if you would please
not talk about this with anyone.

Wish granted.

Hi. I'm lookin' for... I'm lookin' for, uh...

- You're lookin' for what?
- A mountain, I think.

You and everybody else.

- How's that?
- Well, you're a little late to the party.

Six dollars.

I hope you find some parking.

Cassandra?

- Ms Spender?
- Oh. Yes?

Do I know you? Of course I do.

I don't think so.

No. No, I'm sure of it.

Are you a doctor?

Uh, yes. But not a practicing one.

No?

My name is Dana Scully,
and, uh... I'd like to ask you some questions.

Questions about what?

May I?

I think you should know that I, uh...
I learned about you from your son.

- Jeffrey?
- Yes.

I'm an FBI agent, and he asked that
I protect against your story getting out.

Oh.

I guess I'm betraying that by coming here.

But, um... I don't...

I'm here for more personal reasons actually.

I took the liberty
of reading your medical file.

You're feeling it too, aren't you?

Here.

You wake up at night knowing
you need to be somewhere,

but you don't know where it is.

Like you forgot an appointment
you didn't know you had.

That's not why I'm here.

Oh.

I'm here because I, uh...

because I wanted to tell you
that you should...

that you should not remove
the thing that you have in your neck.

Not without possible consequences. Um...

I became very ill.

I'd never dream of removing it.

I want to go.

Wherever it is.

Oh, they have so much to teach us.

You, being a doctor, would want to know
that they are great healers.

Maybe that's why you were chosen.

Oh, my God.

Help me!

Help me. Help me, please!

Agh!

- Are there any survivors?
- No. Not as of this moment.

The smell.

They've all been burned. There are
plenty more who are still being bagged.

Any preliminary theories?

Well, it appears they all came by car.

Most of the dead are congregated in
a wooded area a short distance off the road.

- Self-immolation?
- There's no evidence of that right now.

There's no accelerants,
no incendiary device.

What was their relationship to each other?

There's no way to ID their bodies right now.

It's going to be a painstaking
dental process.

Mulder, why are you tiptoeing
around the obvious fact here?

This is Skyland Mountain.
We're right back here on Skyland Mountain.

And you think it's related to your abduction
from the same place?

- Well, you can't deny the connection.
- This is some kind of abduction scenario?

- I'm not saying that.
- Do you have any evidence of that?

- What do you mean by evidence?
- That's what I'm asking you.

Well, are you gonna
give me your theory, then?

No.

I'm gonna give you an explanation.

This is the same scene
we saw in Kazakhstan.

What is going on? This is our own back yard.

This is no good.
I don't like being kept in the dark.

Someone's going to great lengths
to sabotage our work.

- Who?
- One way or another, we'd better find out,

before it's determined
we're unable to handle this ourselves,

to put a stop to it,
before the colonists intervene.

More on our top story this hour:
in the northern part of the state,

last night’s mass death in the forest

just inside the National Park
at Skyland Mountain.

Again, authorities have now released
a fairly complete list of the dead

gathered from vehicle registrations,

hoping relatives or friends
will come forward

and help to explain the cause or reason for
this bizarre tragedy here in rural Virginia.

At this time, details of the disaster
at Skyland Mountain are sketchy.

Cassandra?

You called us?

This is not supposed to be happening.

I knew these people.

- You knew them?
- They were friends of mine.

Friends from where?

From a long time ago.

It's not supposed to be happening.
Not like this.

You have to do something about it.

What would you like me to do?

You have to stop it.

Stop who?

I don't know.

- Agent Mulder, my name's Jeffrey Spender.
- Oh, son of... the prophet.

I asked you to leave her alone.

Your mother called us
about the incident in Virginia.

- She said that she knew some of the dead.
- Of course she did.

They were in the same
ridiculous cult that she was.

There you have it.

- She was in a cult?
- A UFO cult

who believed they would be carried to
immortality in some flying "mother wheel".

I'm sorry.

We won't be bothering
you or your mother any more.

You think you can pull this off, don't you?

If they give me what I want,
I'm gonna rule the world.

We've got them on their knees, Alex.

Yeah.

Let's get out of this hole.

Well...

Where's the boy?

Are you ready for this?

I've gone over the initial forensics and
pathology reports from Skyland Mountain.

While the event itself remains unexplained,
it's less than a mystery who's involved.

At least for me. Certainly for you.

Our pathologists here
haven't finalized their reports,

but I was able to have three victims
selected at random for x-rays.

That's how I found these. Small pieces of
what looks like metal in the cervical tissue

here, here, and here.

Implants.

I followed up with the families
of the three victims.

None had any cult associations,

but two out of the three belonged
to the local Mutual UFO Networks.

Both claimed abduction experiences.

Both were being treated by a medical
practitioner over recent months.

- For what?
- Take a look.

"Major depressive disorder characterized by
periods of sustained anxiety and paranoia."

"Patient believes he will be called to a place
where he will be abducted by aliens."

The implants triggered those responses.
Those people were led to Skyland Mountain.

By whom?

By the same government
that put the implant in you,

to function as a homing mechanism.

- Mulder, that doesn't make sense.
- Why not?

A tracking system
using military app satellite technology

to monitor test subjects,

or to stage what people might
believe are alien abductions,

But they weren't abducted.
They were led to their deaths.

And for what purpose?

I don't know that yet.

You know, Mulder...

maybe you shouldn't be so quick...

to rule out what
Cassandra Spender has to say.

Mulder.

- Agent Mulder?
- Yes.

This is Marita Covarrubias.
Is this a secure line we're on?

- Yes.
- You were at Skyland Mountain.

Are you aware of a UN report on a similar
incident in the former Soviet Union?

No.

I was in Kazakhstan, Agent Mulder.
There is a connection.

I have someone who knows it.
I have him with me now.

- Where are you?
- At a pay phone on Skodal Road, off the I-90.

Come here. Wait for my call, for directions.

Marita?

- Hello?
- Who's this?

- This is Special Agent Spender. Who's this?
- This is Fox Mulder.

- Why are you calling here?
- I'm looking for Agent Scully.

- I haven't been able to reach her and...
- She's not here. Nor is my mother.

- What are you talking about?
- She's gone from her room.

- Gone where?
- Look, she's just gone.

Don't you get it? She's got nowhere to go.

Look!

There! There it is!
