MULDER: Think about it, Scully. Why would a plum thief leave a note confessing to their crime?
SCULLY: A retroactive feeling of remorse? Or even to gloat. Pathological criminals often want you to know what they've done--
MULDER: Maybe they want you to *think* they've done it.
SCULLY: So what are you saying? That the plums weren't stolen? Then where are they, Mulder?
MULDER: I don't know. But I think whatever's going on here is a lot bigger than a simple plum burglar.

@nash @mitten [throwing a folder on the desk] Scully, you ever hear stories about The Wet Wheelbarrow

@joshmillard @nash @mitten

[Cut to Walter Skinner, in his office, a shadowy figure seated opposite]

SKINNER: Just how much depends upon on that red wheelbarrow anyway? And why does the US government care so much?

SHADOWY FIGURE: [crushes a half smoked herbal cigarette into an ashtray] That's none of your concern. Just see that it's buried.

SKINNER: Look, you don't know Mulder. He isn't going to just drop—

SHADOWY FIGURE: [gets up to leave] See. That it's buried. Assistant director.

SKINNER: [purses lips in annoyance] Fine. But remember what you promised.

SHADOWY FIGURE: [Lights another cigarette and slowly takes a long drag] Don't threaten me, Walter. I've watched presidents die.

@Lana damn the Clove Smoking Man was such a great character…

@joshmillard @nash @mitten "Do you see a pattern forming here, Scully? The vast and trunkless legs of stone? The shattered visage, with the sneer of cold command? Does that look like a *human* sneer to you, Scully?"
