"[ woman crying ]" "Lauren, I've been looking ev..." "Are you all right?" "Do you want some water?" "No." "I'm fine." "Oh, honey, it's been a couple of weeks now." "Do you want to talk?" "No." "Really,Jane, I'm okay." "I just haven't known a lot of people who have died, you know." "I've never known anybody that killed themselves." "Maybe once everything gets packed away it will get easier." "There won't be the constant reminder." "Here's your paycheck." "Come on." "Go home." "Okay." "[ electronic beeping ]" "[ screaming ]" "Oh, please!" "Oh, please!" "I have no money!" "[ screaming ]" "Please, I have no money!" "Let me go!" "[ screaming ]" "Food." "[ coughs ]" "I think I'll pass." "Hey, I know a good place to crash." "Up the fire escape" "Through that window." "Come on." "I'll give you a boost." "Pull it down." "I can't get it down." "Come on, pull." "Come on!" "Come on!" "Agent Scully, Agent Mulder" "Chief Blevins assures us of your cooperation." "We regret any inconvenience at this extreme hour." "We hope your expertise in extraordinary phenomenon will help us answer some questions." "You're not F.B.I., are you?" "Have you ever analyzed anything like this before?" "Abnormal postmortem muscle reflex." "Both corpses are still responding to exposure to high levels of electrostatic charge." "Any external lesions or surface burns?" "None." "Time of death?" "Well, it can't be long." "The body's still warm." "Somatic death occurred sometime over six hours ago but their body temperatures have yet to drop below 98.3." "Where did you find them?" "Look, at least tell us the time and mode of transport." "That might help us determine why the bodies haven't cooled." "You guys called us down here." "You want some answers you got to give some." "They traveled 60 minutes by air." "Thank you." "The most troubling aspect of the deaths is the throat area." "Larynx, esophagus, and hyoid bone-- all have been crushed like chalk." "No abrasions, or evidence of tissue damage." "It's as if their throats were crushed from the inside." "Who are these guys?" "Scully:" "If you've done your examinations why are you consulting us?" "Working on the X-Files have you seen anything like this?" "No, never." "Well, thank you very much for your time" "Agent Mulder, Scully." "If any inquiry as to this meeting be made we request full denial." "I'd say you people already suffer from full denial." "You lied." "You have seen it before." "I can tell." "You lied to them." "I would never lie." "I willfully participated in a campaign of misinformation." "Who do you think they were?" "N.S.A., C.I.A., some covert organization that Congress will uncover in the next scandal." "It's not important who they are but what they have." "I'm sure they have no idea, because they called us in." "I have X-Files-- each case has an element of what we saw tonight." "Residual electrostatic charge, internal mutilation-- none has the elements combined in one case." "How can an esophagus be crushed without the neck being touched?" "Psychokinetic manipulation." "Psychokinesis?" "You mean how Carrie got even at the prom?" "The Russians were doing studies on it." "The Chinese still are." "Their findings are kept secret." "Okay, I'm intrigued but how can we investigate?" "We have nothing to go on." "Just getting in, Lauren?" "Oh!" "Mr. Graves used to let you get away with that but Mr. Dorlund is in charge now." "I was wondering if I could have a minute with him?" "Tomorrow... at 3:00." "[ sighs ]" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Is everything all right out here?" "Can I speak with you?" "Please." "Um, I'm here to give my two-week notice." "Uh-huh..." "Lauren,Jane told me about you crying in Howard's office and I want you to know you're not alone." "As a matter of fact, we share something special." "Howard and I started this company ten years ago." "As long as I knew him he had no interest in anything besides work." "So, some of us became family." "I was his brother." "You were like a daughter." "So, of course" "I feel very close to you and I..." "I want to take care of my family." "Stay, Lauren, please." "The company needs you." "Especially now." "I won't let you leave, Lauren." "What's wrong?" "[ gasping and grunting ]" "I, uh..." "I can't." "I have to leave." "I can't be here anymore." "You've got two weeks." "Mohammed Amrahlabi." ""Convictions:" "Illegal possession of firearms illegal possession of explosives falsification of export licenses."" "He has ties to an extremist group in the U.S.-- the Isfahan named after the city in Iran." "They're working out of Philadelphia." "That's 60 air minutes." "I'll talk to the Philly P.D." "Officer:" "This is where we found him." "Who discovered their bodies?" "Nobody." "It was about 1 0:00;" "I was on patrol." "Just saw them hanging around." "No witnesses?" "The kind of people who come around here after business hours don't witness very much." "You know what I'm saying." "We'll just question everyone on record who was at the machine before 1 0:00 that night." "There." "I'll back up." "Lauren Kyte." "858 Franklin, Bensalem." "Why would the Isfahan be robbing someone of 40 bucks at an ATM machine?" "Look at that." "Maybe it's another person." "Maybe." "Maybe not." "Well, the resolution's too poor." "It won't help much to enhance it." "That leaves us only one person we know we can talk to." "Oh, come on." "[ knocking at door ]" "[ knocking ]" "Hello?" "Ms. Lauren Kyte, please." "I'm agent Fox Mulder." "This is Agent Dana Scully." "We're with the Federal Bureau of Investigation." "May we come in?" "I was in the middle..." "We won't be long." "Thank you." "Have you ever seen either of these two men before?" "No." "Take your time." "I'm sorry." "I've never seen them before." "I'm afraid you have." "Can you tell us what happened that night?" "Um..." "These guys, I..." "I was depositing my paycheck." "They grabbed me, I got away, I ran." "I just didn't want to file a report." "They were found dead." "Have you ever seen this person before?" "No." "I'm sorry." "I can't tell you." "Does that mean you know?" "Uh..." "It means I..." "I can't tell you who it is." "Well, when you can tell me this is the number" "I can be reached at any time, okay?" "Mm-hmm." "A woman her size breaking free and outrunning those men?" "Then somehow crushing their necks?" "Scully:" "She knows who the other person in the photo is." "She's packing, running away, but from what?" "[ tires squealing ]" "What's happening?" "What the hell's going on?" "Mulder:" "Hang on!" "Are you okay?" "Yeah." "Hi." "Hi." "The paramedics check you out?" "Yeah." "I'm fine, although I do have a standing-in-line- at-the-DMV-sized headache." "Mine's more I.R.S.-sized." "Did they check out the car?" "It's brand-new." "only 1 00 miles." "Then someone tampered with it while we were in her house." "The mechanic says everything's in proper order." "Nothing cut, nothing greased." "Check out the lights." "They're on." "No." "The filaments are heated due to massive levels of electrostatic charge just like the bodies in the morgue." "And isn't it interesting that Lauren Kyte was present at both incidents?" "She was in our presence the entire time." "What if it's possible to raise the body's electrostatic charge to the levels we've been seeing and use that energy to affect objects?" "If a person generated that much energy their body would break down." "They'd glow like those lights." "There's evidence of this in the X-Files-- furniture moving untouched objects levitating unexplained electrical discharges." "Frequently, people who have psychokinetic power are unaware of their own capability." "Are you saying Lauren Kyte crashed our car?" "Either that... or a poltergeist." "They're here." "They may be." "Mulder, look at the tangible evidence." "Two mideast extremists were killed trying to assault a woman working for a manufacturer of parts for the Defense Department." "When we questioned her, our car was sabotaged." "In both cases, someone else may have committed those acts" "Maybe the same someone from the ATM photos." "The mystery isn't psychokinetic energy." "It's her accomplice." "Excuse me." "She's clean." "No arrest, not even a traffic ticket." "The only thing is she's in deep with her credit card company-- 1 5,000." "What do you think you're doing?" "Man:" "I'm going to put that on here." "No, no." "I'll take care of this, all right?" "Here." "I'll talk to somebody." "Mulder:" "A little upset over losing a parking space wouldn't you say?" "Who is Howard Graves, anyway?" "She was his secretary." "That's three people dead in the last month associated with Lauren Kyte." "You won't find too many people at their boss' grave who aren't dancing on it." "Look at this one." "[ water splashing ]" "Excuse me, sir?" "Is there an office where I can get some information on those people?" "Who?" "I attend every funeral." "I'm the last person to see them put to rest." "Do you know how Sarah Lynn was related to Howard Graves?" "His daughter." "They were at home one day and he didn't latch the pool gate." "She drowned." "His wife left him a year later." "She's buried in a plot in the northeast corner." "Thank you, sir." "You're welcome." "She was only three years old." "If she had lived, she'd be Lauren's age." "Further investigation into Lauren Kyte's personal history... reveals an estrangement from her family." "Phone records confirm no contact with her parents for the last two years." "Her actions, observed during surveillance, indicate a strong relationship between Lauren Kyte... and her employer, the late Howard Graves." "Was this relationship somehow the motivation for his suicide?" "How are the attack and subsequent murders of the Isfahan agents related, if at all?" "I am certain the answers to these questions... lie in finding the identity of Lauren Kyte's accomplice." "Enhance it by ten." "That's Howard Graves." "He's alive." "Not necessarily." "[ hissing ] [ stairs creaking ]" "[ muffled voice ]" "Man:" "Don't do this to me." "Howard." "Howard:" "No." "Stop." "No, no!" "Please, no!" "[ moaning ]" "[ sobbing ]" "[ panicked gasping ]" "Lauren:" "Howard." "They killed him." "I think Howard Graves fabricated his own death." "Do you know how difficult it is to fake your own death?" "Only one man has pulled it off" " Elvis." "He and Lauren Kyte are in on something." "Maybe an illegal dealing through his company-- something the C.I.A. was interested in." "You may be right." "Wait." "You think I'm right?" "Sure." "All you got to do is prove Howard Graves is still alive." "Howard Graves is very dead." "May we see the autopsy report, please?" "Knock yourself out." "Uh... " Cause of death, arterial hemorrhage..."" "Bledsoe:" "Four out of six liters of blood down the tub." "Well, there seems to be some blood work missing here." "We only do that if we suspect homicide." "I don't suppose you ran any dental confirmations?" "What for?" "It was him." "How did you know?" "It said so on the toe tag." "Who made positive I.D. on the body?" "Um..." "Lauren Kyte." "Mulder:" "But he was cremated." "There's no way to run a dental check or get a DNA sample." "Yes, there is." "His body's tissues and organs were donated." "Man:" "Howard Graves is in five different people." "They harvested the organs immediately after death." "His kidneys were sent to Boston his liver to Dallas and his corneas to Portland, Oregon." "They've all been transplanted." "Because of his age we could only cryopreserve the dura matter in the membrane of the spinal column." "We have Mr. Graves' hospital records." "We'll extract a sample, run a test and in a couple of hours confirm the identity of the donor." "I, uh, made them rush so you could have your check before you leave." "Oh." "I'm going to miss you." "Oh." "Oh, what?" "Here." "Good-bye." "[ door closes ]" "You were going to leave without saying good-bye?" "Well, uh, I came to say good-bye and to wish you luck... and to leave you with this little thought." "I know Howard told you and if it ever gets out" "I won't waste my time trying to pin the source." "I'll go straight to you." "And you'll do to me what you did to Howard?" "I know you had him killed." "Why would you say that?" "He told me." "[ telephone ringing ]" "Mulder." "How soon can you be at my house?" "Why?" "Please hurry." "The tests are conclusive." "The dura matter does belong to Howard Graves." "He is, indeed, very dead." "[ knocking ]" "Just a second." "[ screaming ]" "Go run the bath." "Get out of here!" "No!" "No!" "[ screaming ]" "No." "No!" "[ choking ]" "No!" "[ Lauren screaming: ] No!" "No!" "[ man gasping ]" "[ Lauren crying ]" "You know, you're not under arrest." "You're just here for questioning." "The sooner you talk to us the sooner you get to go home." "What happened to those people tonight?" "Do you have any idea who they might be?" "Why did they attack you?" "Do you know who this is?" "Scully, Mulder." "He'll keep an eye on her." "Come on." "Now." "You've seriously compromised our investigation." "We were following leads pertaining to an X-File." "I want to know every detail of your activities concerning this case." "You're the ones who have been withholding information." "Why don't you tell us what you've got?" "Then we have nothing more to talk about." "Wait!" "We believe H.T.G." "Industrial Technologies sold restricted parts to the Isfahan." "Serial numbers were recovered in the wreckage of the bombing of a navy transport van." "How is Lauren Kyte involved?" "Your actions impeded our investigation." "We don't have enough evidence to hold her." "If she doesn't talk, she goes free and we lose our chance to break this company." "I could make her talk." "My advice to you:" "don't get rough with her." "That was a waste of time." "Your turn." "Lauren..." "I won't talk to you either." "Okay." "Then you're free to go." "I can't go back to that house." "Why?" "Because of Howard Graves?" "He's dead." "I know." "He's watching over you, isn't he?" "Lauren:" "I don't know if you've ever been a secretary before." "Sometimes your boss can talk as if you weren't even in the room which can hurt, you know." "Sometimes you're all he has to talk to which is how it always was with me and Howard." "One night, late, I went into his office." "He was crying, more scared than sad." "The Pentagon contracts were being canceled." "The company was going under." "He felt personally responsible for each of his employees." "Seeing and feeling their fear every day really wore him down." "Then this one time, Dorlund came with that group-- that mideast group" " Isfahan." "They'd buy parts at an outrageous price-- not just once-- for as long as they could get away with it." "That night Howard was crying, he had just found out that Isfahan had claimed responsibility for killing a couple sailors in Florida." "He was never the same and I thought that's why he killed himself... but he didn't." "I saw..." "Howard showed me how Dorlund had him killed." "Made it look like a suicide, 'cause he could see" "Howard was going to put an end to the deal." "So now Howard is protecting you?" "It sounds so ridiculous." "But you believe it?" "He was closer to me than my father." "I told him that." "I still feel his presence." "Sometimes..." "I even smell his after-shave." "If you just could have... seen the things I've seen." "I just want all that to go away." "That's why I'm leaving." "Maybe he can move on." "That's not enough." "You have been given the chance to tell him again." "Take it." "Tell him you love him by showing him... by... by helping us finish his unfinished business." "Lauren, how will you ever be able to rest if he never can?" "Okay." "I'm a mess." "I'm going to, uh... wash up." "What are you doing, Scully?" "You don't believe." "Mulder, there's no such things as ghosts or psychokinesis." "I'm sure there's an explanation, but I believe that she believes and my priority is to get her to help us stop Dorlund." "Well, we may have just sacrificed our best opportunity to observe spectral phenomena." "No, I'm giving us the chance to solve a case that's tangible instead of chasing after shadows." "[ door opens and shuts ]" "Are you ready?" "All right, everyone we have a warrant to search the premises for evidence pertaining to the sale of restricted manufactured parts." "The evidence may be in the form of falsified export licenses, parts manifests, communiqués." "It could be on computer disk or hard copy." "Once there, if in doubt, ask." "We need this to be clean." "This is the culmination of a yearlong investigation." "If we don't come out of there today with something proving a connection to the Isfahan this guy could walk." "Okay, let's go." "You okay?" "It will most likely be in Dorlund's office." "We'll execute the search, but we'll need you to guide us so you have to be strong, okay?" "Scully:" "Everybody stay calm." "Federal Bureau of Investigation." "Ma'am, could you back away from those files, please?" "This is all we could find." "We don't have him." "He's not even breaking a sweat."

"Where you going?" "Away from here." "[ engine starting ]" "Thanks." "Boy, she's in a rush to get out of here." "Out of here, or away from the ghost of Howard Graves?" "Hey, Scully, do you believe in an afterlife?" "I'd settle for a life in this one." "You ever seen the Liberty Bell?" "Yes." "I've been to Philadelphia 1 00 times and I've never seen it." "You're not missing much." "It's a big bell with a big crack and you have to wait in a long line." "I'd really like to go." "Why now?" "I don't know." "How late do you think they stay open?" "Miss Kyte, I asked for this 25 minutes ago." "I know." "I'm sorry." "Maybe that's the way they work back East but here in the Midwest, punctuality is a virtue." "We really have to find a new office space." "Every time a truck goes by the whole building shakes." "That's all, Lauren."
