• [last lines] 

  Dana Scully : Hey. Good to be back?

  Fox Mulder : [with a raspy voice]  Beats the alternative.

  Dana Scully : Well, you'll be interested to know that Morley Tobacco has subpoenaed all of our files on the case. They seem extremely interested in your recovery.

  Fox Mulder : What about Darrel Weaver?

  Dana Scully : He's, uh... well enough to have been moved to the hospital ward at Raleigh Correctional.

  Fox Mulder : It was the nicotine itself that was keeping him alive?

  Dana Scully : Well, his fingertips were stained yellow with it. He was a four-pack-a-day smoker, far heavier than any of the focus group members who died. You know, nicotine is extremely poisonous. It's actually one of the oldest known insecticides.

  Fox Mulder : It's good for killing tobacco beetles.

  Dana Scully : Well, once we loaded your system up with enough of it, it acted as a sort of chemotherapy. Except it almost stopped your breathing at the same time.

  Fox Mulder : That's not all it did.

  [he opens his desk and reveals a carton of Morley brand ciggarettes] 

  Fox Mulder : I bought these on the way to work.

  Dana Scully : [confounded]  You're not going to start smoking?

  Fox Mulder : Well, they say the addiction is stronger than heroin.

  Dana Scully : Mulder...

  [Mulder throws the carton in the trashcan] 

  Dana Scully : Good. Well, Skinner's waiting for us in his office.

  Fox Mulder : I'll be right up.

  [Scully leaves the room. Mulder then looks down at the carton of ciggarettes in the trashcan, leaving it vague if he picks them back up or not] 

• Fox Mulder : It must be bad.

  Dana Scully : How do you feel?

  Fox Mulder : Like a DustBuster attacked me.
