"It's as tall as a house!" "We can smoke him out." "And then what?" "I see it!" "He's coming at us!" "Special Investigations, Agent Stanley speaking." "Working hard, Mulder?" "This woman claims to have been taken aboard a spaceship and held in an antigravity chamber without food and water for three days." "Antigravity is right." "Sorry to interrupt your serious investigation... but I just heard a story that'd just about take your knees out." "What's that?" "They found a body in the New Jersey woods yesterday, missing its right arm and shoulder." "They think they may have been eaten off... by a human." "Where in New Jersey?" "Just outside Atlantic City." "Not an uncommon place to lose a body part." "They think it's the Mob?" "Mm-mm." "It was a homeless man." "There doesn't seem to be a motive." "You feeling lucky, Scully?" "Relative to whom?" "It's not our case, Mulder." "The local police are handling it." "An X file?" "Ever hear of something called the Jersey Devil?" "Yeah... it's a beast who's supposed to come out of the woods and attack cars, right?" "Kind of like an East Coast Bigfoot?" "Read the file about the case in 1947." "Save me the trouble." "It's 1947-- family watches dad get dragged off into the woods." "Cops find dad with a few appendages gnawed off." "Cops corner a large, naked man in the woods, and gun him down." "Autopsy shows human flesh and bones in the man's large intestine-- a beast man." "Is the autopsy report in here?" "Requisition for a car, please." "No." "The original disappeared from the Paterson PD's files a few years after the incident." "There is a statement from the attending pathologist." "Mulder, it's the same story I've heard since I was a kid." "It's a folktale; a myth." "I heard the same story when I was a kid, too." "Funny thing is, I believed it." "Thanks, Lorraine." "Fact is, we got a cannibalized body in New Jersey." "Someone or something out there is hungry." "(sighs)" "They say animals can develop an appetite for human flesh, but this is no animal." "You see the teeth marks just below the clavicle?" "They're human." "Who found the body?" "The park ranger." "Was he alive when it happened?" "Well, it's hard to tell." "There's a skull fracture, but no sign of a struggle." "Blood-alcohol level was up." "Probably never knew what hit him." "Any ideas about that?" "From the size of that bite mark" "I'd say a large, adult male." "I'll do my best." "Uh, Detective Tomson is handling the case." "Glenna." "Hi." "I'm Special Agent Dana Scully and this is Agent Fox Mulder." "I don't remember anybody calling the FBI in on this." "Oh, we're not here in an official capacity." "Agent Scully is a medical doctor." "We heard about your victim and she thought she might take a look." "I'm sorry, I'm going to ask you to leave." "We have an investigation." "For God sakes, Tommy, this is no time to get pissy." "We have jurisdiction here." "Any suspects yet, Detective?" "I don't work for you, sir." "And, unless you hear different from the attorney general, this case is a local matter." "Agent Mulder, we should go." "There's no need to get bent out of shape." "On the contrary," "I think I've been exceedingly polite." "So what's eating that guy?" "He was perfectly in his rights." "The FBI has no overriding jurisdiction on a murder case." "Anyway, you'd feel the same way if someone was horning in on your work." "Yeah, chances are he's without a clue." "He'll probably be scratching his head when they bring the next body in." "You missed your opening, Mulder." "You could have really humiliated him and told him who the perpetrator was-- the Jersey Devil." "(Mulder laughs quietly)" "Hey, what do you say we grab a hotel, take in a floor show, drop a few quarters in the slot, do a little digging on this case?" "You're kidding, right?" "Okay, we can skip the floor show." "Mulder, I have to be back in DC." "You got a date?" "No." "I have my godson's birthday party at 6:30." "What are you doing?" "A little poking around." "Maybe make a weekend out of it." "Mulder, it's a three-hour drive back, by myself." "In Friday-night traffic." "(coins jingling, people shouting)" "Change for 50." "Change?" "Found the body just over there, lying facedown on the rocks." "32 years with the park service," "I've come across some weird stuff but, I tell you, never anything like this." "The victim was a homeless man." "You get many of them wandering around out here?" "Well, occasionally, I'll see some, but most are scared of the woods." "Scared?" "Of what?" "I don't know." "The devil." "People say that's just a myth." "Depends on who you talk to." "What do you think?" "Well, like I said, you know, 32 years..." "I see a lot of weird stuff." "Like one time... a little over four years ago," "I saw what I thought was a large man come out of a copse of birch trees-- not-not a stitch of clothing." "He was about 60 yards away." "And he starts sniffing the air, you know, like a dog?" "And then he looks straight at me and I swear, he smelled me, because he took off into the woods so fast, you'd swear he wasn't human." "Really." "Yeah." "You never saw him again?" "No." "But I feel him." "And..." "I've found things." "Some scat, half-buried like a cat's, only more human." "Found a half-eaten rabbit with what looked like a human cuspid tooth in it, and some deer bones looked like they'd been sharpened into tools." "Do you think it might be what's responsible for the body you found?" "Well... (chuckles)" "I got a pension coming up in a few years." "You know, you say the wrong thing..." "Yeah." "You know, I'll tell you one thing:" "I don't ever come out here without my weapon anymore." "How far is it into town from here?" "About a mile, mile and a half." "I'm staying at the Galaxy Gateway for the next couple days." "If you think of anything, will you call me?" "Sure." "All right." "(children laughing, party horns tooting)" "Look at this gorilla!" "Where am I?" "I can't see!" "Where am I?" "(boy grunts, then cries)" "(crying continues)" "Oh, come here." "It's okay." "It's all right." "What happened?" "Did you bump your head?" "Mm..." "WOMAN:" "Oh, Cruiser, stop that!" "Go on." "What... what happened?" "Jungle warfare." "Oh, I'm going to kill that dog." "If the hit squad doesn't get to him before you do."

"I don't know how you keep it all together." "Mommy radar." "Mm!" "I don't think I'm cut out for this, Ellenn." "Dana, you went through the FBI Academy." "What better training could there be for motherhood?" "Seriously." "You're great with kids." "What are you talking about?" "When am I supposed to find the time?" "Well, first, you have to get a life." "And, of course, it helps if you can find a man." "Know of any?" "Yeah, they're disappearing faster than the Brazilian rain forest." "What about that guy you work with?" "Mulder?" "Yeah, I thought you said he was cute." "He's a jerk." "He's not a jerk." "He's, um... he's obsessed with his work." "(noisemakers blowing, boys yelling, doorbell ringing)" "Hi." "Hi." "I'm Rob." "I'm Scott's dad." "Oh!" "Come in." "Thanks." "Hey, Tiger." "How you doing?" "Having a good time?"

"WOMAN:" "Hey, honey, you got spare change?" "MULDER:" "Roger Crockett, anybody?" "What do you want to know?" "Did you know Roger Crockett?" "Did you hear how he died?" "Yeah." "Any ideas who might have done it?" "You a cop?" "No." "I'm FBI." "I'll show you something." "Okay." "I need some money." "♪ ♪" "What is this?" "Stuck in the pocket of a jacket I found." "Does it mean anything to you?" "I've seen it." "Where?" "Right here." "Here?" "Digging in the trash." "Are you hustling me?" "Swear to God." "What do you think it is?" "I don't know." "Scared the hell out of me." "Has anybody else seen it?" "Oh, yeah." "Everybody's pretty freaked." "Anybody tell the cops?" "You think they don't know?" "Where you sleeping tonight?"

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" "Enjoying the night life here in beautiful Atlantic City." "I'll go right to the D.A.'s Office, if I have to." "Obstructing an investigation, misconduct..." "Let's go, let's go see her together." "And while we're at it, why don't we add" ""withholding evidence" to the list." "What are you talking about?" "Statements given to you describing something stalking the back streets of Atlantic City." "This is the fishing trip they get me up at 3:00 in the morning for?" "Unbelievable." "Why else would you be sweeping the streets tonight?" "You know it's out there." "I got a perpetrator out there." "Whether it's Hannibal the Cannibal or Elmer Fudd," "I've got a job to protect people." "Oh, is that your job?" "Or is it to keep the dice rolling, keep the tour buses rolling in." "You can't fill those casinos, this town disappears like a quarter down the slot." "I've seen it." "Seen what?" "(chuckling)" "You've been spending too much time in supermarket check-out lines." "This story's as old as the hills." "Who's going to be responsible when you lose your first tourist, Detective?" "You are." "No, you are, sir, because you're wasting my time and impeding the solution of this case." "You want to go on a safari, go to Africa." "In the meantime, enjoy the rest of your weekend." "Agent Scully." "Agent Mulder, line three." "Where are you?" "Not far from where you left me." "You're still in Atlantic City?" "Uh, Scully, you got anything happening this morning?" "What's that noise in the background?" "(retching)" "That's a guy getting sick." "Mulder, where are you?" "The drunk tank?" "Well, it's not hard to see why they mistook you for a vagrant." "You going to rag on me or are you going to take me to get me something to eat?" "Am I buying or did you manage to panhandle some spare change while you were at it?" "It moved like a cat, quick and graceful." "There's no way a human could've gotten up on the roof that fast." "Mulder." "What?" "What's gonna happen when word of this gets back to the Bureau?" "They dropped the charges." "That guy Tomson, he ran me through the system just to spite me." "I'm talking about this Jersey Devil thing." "I saw it-- it's exactly the way the ranger described." "The way it moved, the way it sniffed the air." "It's come out of the woods, probably in search of food." "Yeah, I'll say." "It was picking through the garbage, Scully." "If it was a man-eater, why didn't it come after me?" "Probably felt threatened or something, because..." "Mulder, listen to yourself!" "You're already ascribing it a motive and an alibi." "This thing chewed somebody's arm off." "It's not exactly a defensive posture." "But you do believe that I saw something." "Don't you?" "You saw something," "I'll give you that, but I'm not about to go in and sell it not when it's nothing more than a sighting in a dark alley." "I've still got a hotel room I'm paying for." "Well, I have to get back to Washington by 7:30, so, uh..." "Another birthday party?" "No." "I have a date." "Can you cancel?" "Unlike you, Mulder, I would like to have a life." "I have a life." "Come on." "I have somebody I want you to meet on the way home." "Come on." "Hold on." "Just about every culture has one" "Yeti, Sasquatch, the Russian almas, the sonnequat." "Why is that?" "It's a universal wild man myth-- a symbolic fear of our dual natures as humans as creators of life and destroyers of it." "What's this chart?" "It shows the historic entry of man onto each continent and the effect it had on other animal species, which, as you see, has been disastrous." "Why?" "We humans have retained hereditary traits through evolution that have proven to be extremely destructive." "We tend to be tribal and aggressively territorial, oriented by selfish sexual and reproductive drives that make cooperation beyond the family or tribe extremely hard for us." "So we kill other species in order to survive." "Yeah, humans are top carnivores." "We sit at the top of the food chain and we reduce other species' chances of survival." "Well, nice to know Dana left here with more than a degree." "But what if something entered the food chain above us?" "Nah." "It won't happen." "Our intelligence virtually ensures that, barring the introduction of some alien life-form, we will live out our days as rulers of the world." "But-but what if, through some fluke of nature, a human was born who reverted to its most animal instincts?" "A kind of carnivorous Neanderthal." "Wouldn't he occupy a space above us on the food chain?" "Oh, sure." "All he'd have to do is wait outside any fast-food restaurant and eat us on the way in." "Right, yeah, and-and..." "and haven't there been cases where men have been raised in the wilderness by animals who have no language and hunt like predators?" "Oh, yes, several-- but cannibalism is rare even among the lower mammals." "But even when faced with extinction?" "Maybe in the jungles of New Guinea or..." "It's just highly unlikely that what you're suggesting could have survived civilization or evolution out in the woods of New Jersey?" "Highly unlikely, but not outside the realm of extreme possibility?" "Well, it would be an amazing discovery." "♪ ♪" "ROB:" "Well, the hard thing was when my wife remarried." "I..."

"I actually had dreams where I was running over his stepfather with my car." "You'll understand when you have kids." "Having kids changes everything." "That's what they say." "Maybe some weekend, if you're up for it, we could take the kids out to the beach for the day." "Yeah." "Great." "Thank you." "So, can I ask about the case you're on or can't you say?" "Well..." "I don't think it's a case we should discuss over dinner." "I don't suppose you'd want to hear about the finer points of estate planning and taxation?" "(telephone ringing)" "Mulder." "Agent Mulder, this is Peter Brouillet of the Jersey Parks Department." "Oh, yeah." "Hi." "Hi." "I found a body out in the woods today." "It looks like it's been dead six to eight months." "A long-haired male missing the same tooth I found in that rabbit awhile back." "It could be your devil." "Where's the body now?" "I turned it over to the coroner's office."

"Well, if they picked it up, nobody logged the body on the chart." "I sure haven't seen it." "I don't understand." "What else would they have done with it?" "I'm afraid we may have called you down here for nothing." "They're gonna try to sweep this whole thing under the carpet." "Why?" "Any publicity and you've got the streets crawling with kind of people who aren't here to play the crap tables." "Word gets out there's something still on the loose, forget it." "You said it was a female?" "The body they found was a male." "There's a 50-50 chance there was a mate." "We may never know unless we find out ourselves." "If it's true... what are the chances of capturing it alive?" "If it is a primate, it would have a natural fear of heights." "It would also want to stay close to its food source."
