she/her — x files [david duchovny & gillian anderson] mostly here for #XFilesLive ✌🏻👽
“Mulder. I'm here.” // “He saved your life. Old Smokey. I suppose I should thank him.” // “We're gonna save your life. …we're gonna get an IV into you, okay?” #XFilesLive
“If this actually works... [It's not gonna fail] then I'll have alien DNA.” // “We should all hope to have it. It's the only hope we have.” #XFilesLive
“Driving north with Mulder. [And what's his condition?] He's not doing so well. [And what's your condition, Agent Miller?] Yeah, we could use a couple doctors.” // “...I'll come and find you wherever you are.” #XFilesLive
“He's got the cure; ask him for it. [Why didn't you ask him?] Because that's exactly what he wants.” #XFilesLive
“We need to do the PCR using a larger extract of your cells.” // “Because my DNA is different. Because I have extra nucleotides.” // “And we'll get an amplification. And this time, I'm sure we'll see it.” #XFilesLive
“Agent Mulder. I'm getting you out of here.” // “Save yourself, Agent Miller.” // “No, I'm not just gonna let you die. Come on.” #XFilesLive
“So how does your alien DNA protect you from this weapon?” // “I don't know… The alien DNA must code for something that targets the CAS-9 protein. It must somehow deactivate the weapon.” // “...this was our mistake. Our sample was too small.” #XFilesLive
“I don't believe this. [There's nothing. There's no alien DNA.] I saw it when I sequenced my genome. It was near the centromere on chromosome 17. It was there.” #XFilesLive
“What are we looking to do?” // “To amplify my DNA. Using alien DNA to defeat the Spartan Virus by creating a vaccine against it. You're gonna do a PCR, using primers from my sequence. // “Okay, that shouldn't take long.” // “Good, because we don't have long.” #XFilesLive
“You may not believe this, but I really want to save your life. [I don't make deals with you.] So you can see Scully again…” // “You harm her in any way...” #XFilesLive
“Your abduction. The tests. Your DNA, Dana. You're safe. You're one of the chosen elite.” #XFilesLive
“How did he threaten you, Monica?” // “With the ultimate weapon… the ability to depopulate the planet, to kill everyone but the chosen. [By tampering with their DNA?] Science acquired in the '50s, given to them by an alien race.” // “Alien DNA mixed with our DNA.” #XFilesLive
“I looked you up when I went back to the FBI. They said you'd been gone for a decade, that you left in a hurry.” // “I made certain choices. You might not approve or understand, but they made sense to me at the time.” #XFilesLive
“I can explain what’s happening… [I’m sorry. Who is this?] Someone who was there for you. [There for me when?] When you also needed help.” #XFilesLive
“You say they're tampering with our DNA, that they're able to shut down our immune systems by the addition of something to our DNA?” // “Yes, but I don't know how exactly.” #XFilesLive
“Soldiers deploying to Iraq are given anthrax vaccines to protect them in the event of biological warfare. But with compromised immune systems, it's the vaccines that are attacking their systems. [Meaning we're infecting them?] Thinking that we're protecting them.” #XFilesLive
“I was given a smallpox vaccine as a child, as I'm sure you were as well.” // “If you are suggesting that there is more in that shot than a vaccine…” // “It's actually not that far-fetched and within the realm of accepted science.” #XFilesLive
“No one has the right or the ability to tamper with your DNA.” // “Unless we gave them that ability.” #XFilesLive
“What may seem like science fiction, but is science fact, the legitimate and verifiable discovery of alien DNA that’s in virtually every American citizen.” #XFilesLive
“And the significance of a recent test result of my personal genetic makeup turning up DNA anomalies that I can only classify as... alien.” #XFilesLive
"Where does the hatred end, though?" // "Maybe it ends where it began, by finding a common language again. Maybe that's God's will." #XFilesLive
"I saw things, though, Scully. Powerful things. I saw deep and unconditional love." // "I saw things too. I witnessed unqualified hate, that appears to have no end." // "But how to reconcile the two?" #XFilesLive
