Quotes 

• Mulder : He wants advice; dating advice.

  Scully : Dating advice? From whom?

  Mulder : Yours truly.

  Scully : [long silence from Scully] 

  Mulder : Hello? Hey, Scully? Scully, you there?

  Scully : I heard you. Mulder, when was the last time you went on a date?

  Mulder : I will talk to you later.

  Mulder : [Mulder hangs up] 

  Scully : The blind leading the blind.

• Mulder : I do not *gaze* at Scully.

• [a rainmaker is losing control of his powers] 

  Mulder : I'll build the ark, you gather the animals.

• Mulder : It's like looking in a mirror.

• Daryl Mootz : [drunk, limping up to Mulder and Holman]  Where's Shelia?

  Mulder : Where's your leg?

• Scully : So now you're saying that...

  Mulder : Holdman Hardt is manufacturing the weather. Did you see how relieved he was when he learned that Daryl was drunk? I've been doing some checking. Holdman Hardt has been hospitalized 5 times with nervous exhaustion, each time coinciding with a major meteorological event.

  Scully : Mulder, it is still a huge leap to say that he's manufacturing the weather.

  Mulder : Most people will admit that the weather plays a significant role in the way they feel, right? There's even that disorder...

  Scully : SAD. Seasonal Affective Disorder.

  Mulder : Well, who's to say that it doesn't work the other way around, that the way someone feels can affect the weather, that the weather is somehow an expression of Holman Hardt's feelings. Or, or better still, the feelings that he's not expressing?
