Doggett:
Were you aware Mulder carried a second weapon, a Walther PPK?

Skinner:
Yeah, in an ankle holster.

Doggett:
I found it hidden under his sink. The clip was three rounds shy.

Skinner:
What's this about?

Doggett:
Three shots were fired in a house where Mulder investigated a case last May. He never filed a report on the case or the discharge of his weapon. Do you know any reason why?

Skinner:
If Mulder did these things, he would've reported them.

Doggett:
Mulder submitted case reports, all right but they indicate he was here in Washington on days his cell phone records prove he was in Pennsylvania.

Skinner:
Are you calling Mulder a liar?

Doggett:
(pointing to computer screen) This is the muzzle of Mulder's pistol. You see that there?

Skinner:
It's blowback.

Doggett:
Macrospatter of dried blood in a semi-circular pattern, which indicates Mulder fired close-range at something or someone.

Skinner:
I've heard enough. (starts to leave)

Doggett:
Where are you going?

Skinner:
It's where you're going, Agent Doggett. You're trying to build a case that what? Mulder killed a man and then made himself disappear? That's not what happened. I told you before, he was abducted. I saw it!

Doggett:
Agent Mulder signed falsified case reports.

Skinner:
(angry) Oh, come on, John, this isn't about Mulder, it's about you! Your career. You give the FBI a narrative for Mulder's disappearance, you're off the X-Files and back on the fast-track to the directorship.

Doggett:
I'm just trying to find the truth.

Skinner:
You want the truth? Then ask Agent Scully!

Doggett:
I can't do that.

Skinner:
Why not?

Doggett:
Because she... (sighing) she signed those case reports, too.

Skinner:
(looks at the file; flatly) You take that story to OPR, the accusation alone could cost Scully her job.

Doggett:
I'm not taking it to OPR. I'm taking it to you.
