"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, uh, just haven't known a lot of people who have died, you know." "I've never known anybody that killed themselves." "Oh... 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." "I have no money!" "Oh, no, let me go, no!" "Food." "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." "Hurry up." "Agent Scully, Agent Mulder," "Chief Blevins assures us of your cooperation." "We regret any inconvenience at this extreme hour." "We hope that your expertise in extraordinary phenomenon will help us answer some questions." "You're not FBI, 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 signs of 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 degrees." "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." "Hey, 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." "There's no abrasions or evidence of tissue damage." "It's as if their throats were crushed from the inside." "Who are these guys?" "If you've done your examinations, why are you consulting us?" "During your work on the X Files, have you ever 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?" "NSA, CIA, some covert organization that Congress will uncover in the next scandal." "It's not important who they are but what they have, and 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 without any corresponding causality, but none has all the elements combined in one case." "How can an esophagus be crushed without the neck ever 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... yes." "Mr. Graves used to let you get away with that, but Mr. Dorlund is in charge now." "I was, um... wondering if I could have a minute with him?" "Tomorrow... at 3:00." "Can I see him today?" "It's really important." "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh, my suit." "Is everything all right out here?" "Can I speak with you?" "Hmm." "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, 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, and as long as I knew him, he had no interest in anything besides work, and so some of us became family." "I was his brother and you were like a daughter to him, 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?" "I, uh..." "I can't." "I, I have to leave." "I c..." "I can't be here anymore." "You've got two weeks." "Mohammed Amrollahi." "Convictions:" "illegal possession of firearms, illegal possession of explosives, falsification of export licenses." "He has ties to an exiled extremist group operating in the U.S... the Isfahan." "They take their name from the city in Iran." "Recently they've been working out of Philadelphia." "That's 60 air minutes." "I'll talk to the Philly PD." "It was last Wednesday night." "I was just on routine patrol." "This is where we found him." "Who discovered their bodies?" "Nobody." "It was about 10:00, I was on patrol." "Saw them hanging around." "No witnesses?" "The kind of people that come around here after business hours don't witness very much." "You know what I'm saying." "Well, I appreciate your help." "If you can think of anything else, please give us a call." "A daily visual record is made of everyone who makes a transaction." "We'll just have to question everyone on record who was at the machine before 10:00 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." "Hello?" "Ms. Lauren Kyte, please." "I'm Agent Fox Mulder." "This is Agent Dana Scully." "We're with the Federal Bureau of Investigation." "Do we mind if we come in?" "Oh, uh, I was just in the middle of..." "Thank you, we won't be long, thank you." "Have you ever seen either of these two men before?" "No." "Take your time." "No, I-I'm sorry, I've, I've never seen them before." "I'm afraid you have." "This is a surveillance picture from your ATM." "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, 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 a 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?" "She knows who the other person in the photo is." "She's packing, running away, but from what?" "What's happening?" "What the hell is going on?" "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 IRS-sized." "Did they check out the car?" "Yeah, it's brand-new." "Only 100 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." "They're not... 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 we were at her house." "What if it's possible somehow to raise the body's electrostatic charge to the levels we've been seeing and to use that energy to affect objects?" "If a person could generate that much energy, their body would break down." "They-They'd start glowing like those lights." "Well, there's evidence of this all through 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." "Oh, come on, 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." "Now, in both cases, someone else may have committed those acts... maybe the same someone we saw in the ATM photos." "The mystery isn't psychokinetic energy." "It's her accomplice." "Excuse me, sir, 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... $15,000." "What do you think you're doing?" "What are you doing?" "No, no." "I'll take care of this, all right?" "Just go." "Here, I'll, I'll talk to somebody." "A little upset over losing a parking space, wouldn't you say?" "So, 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." "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 the 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." "No... no." "Don't do this to me." "Howard." "No." "No." "Stop, no, no." "Please, no." "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 CIA 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..."" "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?" "Lauren Kyte." "But Howard Graves was cremated." "There's no way to run a dental check or to get a DNA sample." "Yes, there is." "His body's tissues and organs were donated." "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 mater 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." "Oh, I'm going to miss you." "Oh." "Oh, what?" "Here." " Bye." " Bye-bye." "You were gonna leave without saying good-bye?" "Well, uh, I-I came to say good-bye and to, 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." "Mulder." "This is Lauren Kyte." "How soon can you be at my house?" "Why?" "Please hurry." "The tests are conclusive." "The dura mater does belong to Howard Graves." "He is, indeed, very dead." "Just a second." "Go run the bath." "Get out of here!" "No!" "Aah!" "No, no." "No!" "No!" "No!" "No, no...!" "No!" "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." "What 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" "HTG Industrial Technologies sold restricted parts" " to the Isfahan." " Partial serial numbers from their manifests were recovered in the wreckage of the July bombing of a navy transport van." "How is Lauren Kyte involved?" "We don't quite know." "Your actions impeded our investigation." "In any case 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." "Hmm, 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?" "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, but sometimes you're all he has to talk to, which was 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, uh..." "Mideast group..." "Isfahan, that terrorist group." "They'd buy parts at an outrageous price... not just once but 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 aftershave." "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." "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 year-long 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?" "Now, it'll 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?" "Everybody stay calm." "Federal Bureau of Investigation." "Ma'am, could you back away from those files, please?" "Step aside, please." "This is all we could find." "We don't have him." "He's not even breaking a sweat." "Our case is blown." "We've wasted a year." "This guy's going to walk." "Let's get out of here." "Lauren, it's over, we have to go." "What we're looking for isn't here." "Uh, look, she's no agent." "I've been more than cooperative and I don't want to be combative, but she has no right to destroy my personal property." "Lauren." "Destroying property?" "What about that van that blew up and killed those servicemen?" "Oh, I don't know what you're talking about, you stupid bitch." "Lauren, no!" "They'll kill him." "Help us find it!" "Get down." "Now what's going on?" "I don't know." "Mulder!" "Mulder!" "Mulder!" "Mulder!" "Oh, my God." "I guess what we're looking for is here." "The U.S. attorney's office is going after Dorlund with everything they've got, including the murder of Howard Graves." "I'll come back to testify." "Oh... where you going?" "Away from here." "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." "Have you ever seen the Liberty Bell?" "Yes." "You know, I've been to Philadelphia 100 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?" "Ms. 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 have to find a new office space." "Every time a truck goes by, the whole building shakes." "That's all, Lauren."
