MULDER: The Hong Kong manifest has the cargo listed as a dog. SCULLY: A dog? A "dog" dog? MULDER: Yo quiero Taco Bell. That alone is not what drew me to this case. The two men were found inside the container which was locked from the outside. SCULLY: What happened to the dog? MULDER: Dog gone… Dog gone… Doggone. SCULLY: Yeah, I got it. SCULLY: Mulder, I don't have to tell you how absolutely and completely wrong that seems. I mean, they were found dead in a locked cage, right? MULDER: Yeah. SCULLY: Two grown men? MULDER: Mm-hmm. SCULLY: You're not going to tell me that a dog did this. MULDER: A bad dog. SCULLY: Yeah. OFFICER JEFFREY CAHN: I'm not really sure. The man it was shipped to's name is Detweiler. Dr. Ian Detweiler. Calls himself a "cryptozoologist." MULDER: Cryptozoologist? OFFICER JEFFREY CAHN: Yeah they deal with animals thought to be extinct. MULDER: Animals that aren't supposed to exist like Sasquatch and the Ogopogo and the Abominable Snowman and - SCULLY: Don't mind him. He'll go on forever. SCULLY: How is it that you know so much about her but you don't know what she looks like? MULDER: I never actually met her. SCULLY: Yet you assume that she's going to help us? MULDER: No, actually, it's not an assumption. She is the one who told me about his case. SCULLY: Oh, so you two are chummy? MULDER: Well, I've read her books. SCULLY: Ah. The Wolf Inside... Dogs Don't Lie... Better Than Human... Better Than Human? MULDER: She's not a real people person. KARIN BERQUIST: Canids' intelligence is far superior to ours if that's what you want to know. SCULLY: Intelligence enough to murder? KARIN BERQUIST: Murder takes no intelligence. It's a human behaviorism. SCULLY: Don't underestimate a woman. They can be tricksters, too.
