by writing " Here be monsters."
323
00:25:36,947 --> 00:25:39,313
Oh, I got a map of New York City
just like that.
324
00:25:39,382 --> 00:25:42,840
-[Sonic Beeping increases]
- What was that ?
325
00:25:42,919 --> 00:25:44,978
It ain't no bass.
326
00:25:45,055 --> 00:25:46,989
[ Beeping Continues ]
327
00:25:47,057 --> 00:25:49,150
What is that ?
328
00:25:51,161 --> 00:25:55,063
- What is that, Mulder ?
- [ Beeping increases ]
329
00:25:55,165 --> 00:25:58,532
- There be monsters, Scully.
- It looks like it's coming
straight at us.
330
00:25:58,602 --> 00:26:02,060
- Yep, that's what it looks like.

00:26:11,414 --> 00:26:14,941
Mayday ! Mayday !
Does anybody read me ?
333
00:26:16,987 --> 00:26:19,979
This is a distress call
from the Patricia Rae.
334
00:26:20,056 --> 00:26:24,516
PA7A3A27.
I'm on a signal--
335
00:26:24,594 --> 00:26:27,825
[Crashing Continues]
336
00:26:30,767 --> 00:26:34,168
- Mayday ! Mayday !
- Scully, let's get outta here !
337
00:27:06,870 --> 00:27:09,703
There goes
our $500 deposit.
338
00:27:13,443 --> 00:27:16,776
- [ Sighs ] I say we swim to shore.
- Swim ?
339
00:27:16,846 --> 00:27:19,747
Yeah. The shore can't be
too far from here.
340
00:27:19,816 --> 00:27:21,750
In which direction ?
341
00:27:30,193 --> 00:27:34,755
Yeah. And, you know,
livin' in the city, you forget
that night is actually so, uh,
342
00:27:34,831 --> 00:27:37,095
dark.
343
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,192
Living in the city
you forget a lot of things.
344
00:27:40,303 --> 00:27:45,366
You know, there you’re always thinking
about being mugged or hit by a car.
345
00:27:45,442 --> 00:27:49,572
It's not until you get back to nature
until you realize that everything
is out to get you.
346
00:27:50,814 --> 00:27:53,647
That's what my father
always taught me--
347
00:27:53,717 --> 00:27:59,622
to respect nature, 'cause
it has no respect for you.
348
00:28:02,926 --> 00:28:05,622

[Scully Panting]
351
00:28:26,950 --> 00:28:30,386
That was him, Scully.
That was Big Blue.
352
00:28:32,022 --> 00:28:34,490
So what if it was ?
353
00:28:36,526 --> 00:28:41,429
- Mulder, what are we doing here ?
- What do you mean,
"what are we doing here ?"
354
00:28:41,531 --> 00:28:43,522
What are you hoping
to accomplish ?
355
00:28:45,502 --> 00:28:49,529
[ Sighs ] Scully, so many of the
things we investigate are so intangible.
356
00:28:49,639 --> 00:28:54,667
But this creature exists within the
specific earthly confines of this lake,
357
00:28:54,744 --> 00:28:57,781
- and I want to find it.
- What for ?
358
00:28:57,914 --> 00:29:01,680
You're a scientist.
Why do you ask that question ?
It would be a miraculous discovery.
359
00:29:01,751 --> 00:29:05,050
It could revolutionize
evolutionary biological thinking.
360
00:29:05,121 --> 00:29:09,455
- Is that really the reason why ?
- [ Sighs ]
361
00:29:09,559 --> 00:29:13,017
You know when you showed me those
pictures that the photographer took ?
362
00:29:13,129 --> 00:29:15,427
You wanna know
what I really saw in them ?
363
00:29:15,498 --> 00:29:17,966
- A tooth ?
- No. You.
364
00:29:18,034 --> 00:29:22,130
That man is your future--
Listening only to himself,
365
00:29:22,205 --> 00:29:27,302
hoping to catch a glimpse of the truth
for who knows what reason.
366
00:29:27,377 --> 00:29:30,175
Well, I did read in his journals
that he was hoping to live off
the copyright fees...
367
00:29:30,246 --> 00:29:32,180
from a genuine Big Blue photo.
368
00:29:35,151 --> 00:29:38,177
Well, as dumb as it sounds,
at least it's a legitimate reason.
369
00:29:38,254 --> 00:29:40,313
You don't think
my reasons are legitimate ?
370
00:29:41,591 --> 00:29:44,025
Mulder, sometimes
I just can't figure them out.
371
00:29:46,362 --> 00:29:48,990
[Soft Splashing]
372
00:29:55,572 --> 00:29:57,836
Mulder.

[Quacking]
374

[ Laughs ]
375
00:30:12,589 --> 00:30:16,150
- [ Quacking Continues ]
- I'm still tempted to fire.
376
00:30:22,832 --> 00:30:26,165
Hey, Scully, do you think
you could ever cannibalize someone.
377
00:30:26,236 --> 00:30:29,000
I mean, if you really had to.
378
00:30:29,072 --> 00:30:31,836
Well, as much as the very idea
is abhorrent to me,
379
00:30:31,908 --> 00:30:37,244
I suppose under certain conditions
a living entity is practically
conditioned...
380
00:30:37,313 --> 00:30:42,910
to perform whatever extreme measures
are necessary to ensure its survival.
381
00:30:42,986 --> 00:30:46,046
I suppose I'm no different.
382
00:30:46,122 --> 00:30:48,352
You've lost some weight
recently, haven’t you ?
383
00:30:48,458 --> 00:30:50,585
Yeah. Actually, I have.
Thanks for--
384
00:30:53,363 --> 00:30:56,298
[ Chuckling ] But it is amazing
what some animals will do...
385
00:30:56,366 --> 00:30:59,563
to guarantee the continuation
of a species, isn't it ?
386
00:30:59,636 --> 00:31:02,935
I mean, a creature of this size
must have adapted its behavior
over the years...
387
00:31:03,006 --> 00:31:06,772
to minimize its chances of being seen
by its only predator-- us.
388
00:31:06,843 --> 00:31:11,576
Its coming closer to shore
for its prey must be an act
of desperation on its part.
389
00:31:11,648 --> 00:31:13,843
Poor Queequeg.
390
00:31:18,154 --> 00:31:20,122
Why did you name
the dog "Queequeg" ?
391
00:31:20,190 --> 00:31:23,853
It was the name of the harpoonist
in Moby Dick.
392
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:28,363
My father used to read to me from
Moby Dick when I was a little girl.
393
00:31:28,464 --> 00:31:31,194
I called him 'Ahab, "and
he called me "Starbuck. "
394
00:31:31,267 --> 00:31:33,963
So I named my dog Queequeg.
395
00:31:35,939 --> 00:31:38,407
That's funny.
I just realized something.
396
00:31:38,474 --> 00:31:41,568
- It's a bizarre name for a dog, huh ?
- No.
397
00:31:41,644 --> 00:31:44,306
How much you're
like Ahab.
398
00:31:44,380 --> 00:31:50,012
You’re so consumed by your
personal vengeance against life,
399
00:31:50,086 --> 00:31:53,681
whether it be its inherent
cruelties or its mysteries,
400
00:31:53,756 --> 00:31:59,490
that everything takes on
a warped significance to fit
your megalomaniacal cosmology.
401
00:31:59,562 --> 00:32:01,962
Scully,
are you coming on to me ?
402
00:32:02,031 --> 00:32:07,833
It’s just--
The truth or a white whale--
what difference does it make ?
403
00:32:07,904 --> 00:32:11,203
Both obsessions are
impossible to capture,
404
00:32:11,274 --> 00:32:13,265
and trying to do so
will only leave you dead...
405
00:32:13,343 --> 00:32:16,278
along with everyone else
you bring with you.
406
00:32:16,346 --> 00:32:18,337
You know, Mulder,
you are Ahab.
407
00:32:20,817 --> 00:32:24,253
You know, it's interesting
you should say that, because
I've always wanted a peg leg.
408
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,948
It's a boyhood thing
I never grew out of.
409
00:32:27,023 --> 00:32:29,992
No, I'm not being flippant. I mean,
I've given this a lot of thought.
410
00:32:30,059 --> 00:32:32,527
If you have a peg leg
or hooks for hands,
411
00:32:32,629 --> 00:32:34,927
you know, maybe it's enough
to simply carry on living--
412
00:32:34,998 --> 00:32:37,592
you know, bravely facing life
with your disability.
413
00:32:37,667 --> 00:32:41,194
It's heroic just to survive.
But without these things,
you're actually expected...
414
00:32:41,271 --> 00:32:45,207
to make something of your life-- achieve
something, earn a raise, wear a necktie.
415
00:32:45,275 --> 00:32:48,540
So-So-So, if anything,
I'm actually the antithesis of Ahab,
416
00:32:48,611 --> 00:32:52,604
because if I did have a peg leg
I'd quite possibly be more happy
and more content...
417
00:32:52,682 --> 00:32:56,118
and not feel the need to chase after
these creatures of the unknown.
418
00:32:56,185 --> 00:32:59,848
- And that's not flippant ?
- [ Laughing ] No.
419
00:32:59,922 --> 00:33:03,187
Flippant is my favorite line
from Moby Dick:
420
00:33:03,293 --> 00:33:06,421
" Hell is an idea first born on
an undigested apple dumpling."
421
00:33:06,529 --> 00:33:08,463
Yeah.
422
00:33:08,598 --> 00:33:10,862
[Splashing]
423
00:33:19,942 --> 00:33:22,968
[Splashing Resumes,
Louder]
424
00:33:23,046 --> 00:33:25,480
- What was that ?
- I don't know, but it ain't no duck.
425
00:33:27,884 --> 00:33:31,183
[Splashing Continues]
426
00:33:41,197 --> 00:33:43,131
[ Panting ]
427
00:33:47,003 --> 00:33:49,494
I thought I heard voices.
What are you two doing out here ?
428
00:33:49,605 --> 00:33:53,041
- Dr. Faraday ?
- Hope I'm not interrupting anything.
429
00:33:53,142 --> 00:33:56,839
No. No. We, uh--
we had a little trouble with our boat.
430
00:33:56,913 --> 00:33:59,746
- Actually, it sank.
- How'd that happen ?
431
00:33:59,816 --> 00:34:02,785
It was my fault.
[ Sighs ]
432
00:34:02,852 --> 00:34:06,219
We would have been out here all night if
you hadn't answered our distress call.
433
00:34:06,289 --> 00:34:08,917
Oh, I didn't. I was walking by.
I heard you talking.
434
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,521
- Walking by ?
- Yeah.
435
00:34:12,595 --> 00:34:15,792
Yeah, the shore is just
a stone's throw from here.
436
00:34:17,734 --> 00:34:20,532
[ Chuckling ]
Come on. I'll take you back.
437
00:34:42,825 --> 00:34:46,261
It was just out of fuel.
I think the sheriff will
be along in a couple minutes.
438
00:34:46,329 --> 00:34:48,854
I'd drive you myself,
but I've got work to do.
439
00:34:48,931 --> 00:34:53,095
What exactly is it that you’re
doing out here, Dr. Faraday ?
It's well after midnight.
440
00:34:53,202 --> 00:34:55,693
Well, night is rhinus venisefula's
most active period,
441
00:34:55,805 --> 00:34:58,273
and this is
its primary breeding ground,
442
00:34:58,374 --> 00:35:00,308
or at least it used to be.
443
00:35:00,376 --> 00:35:03,573
Thousands of eggs used
to cling to these reeds--
444
00:35:03,646 --> 00:35:06,547
beautiful jelly clusters.
445
00:35:06,616 --> 00:35:11,076
Now one must turn over many a leaf
in order to find potential offspring.
446
00:35:11,154 --> 00:35:13,645
- What's in the sack ?
- Adult frogs.
447
00:35:13,723 --> 00:35:16,692
I've been breeding them in captivity
and releasing them into the wild.
448
00:35:18,127 --> 00:35:20,721
[Scully]
This is Striker’s Cove ?
449
00:35:20,797 --> 00:35:22,992
- Mm-hmm.
- The frogs--
450
00:35:23,065 --> 00:35:26,592
- I beg your pardon ?
- The unexplained depletion of
frogs originates from this cove.
451
00:35:26,702 --> 00:35:30,297
- It's the food chain.
- What about it ?
452
00:35:30,406 --> 00:35:32,806
The food chain. If you alter
one life-form in an ecosystem,
453
00:35:32,875 --> 00:35:36,606
the rest is necessarily affected,
either by an increase or decrease.
454
00:35:36,679 --> 00:35:39,910
So, if an aquatic dinosaur's
diet consisted primarily of frogs,
455
00:35:39,982 --> 00:35:44,248
then if those frogs became scarce,
it would have to turn
to an alternative food source.
456
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,845
- Humans.
- Agent Mulder,
457
00:35:46,923 --> 00:35:51,690
you are taking my legitimate research
and basic biological principle...
458
00:35:51,761 --> 00:35:54,161
and stretching them both
way out of proportion...
459
00:35:54,230 --> 00:35:57,825
in an effort to give
some kind of validity
to an entirely ludicrous theory.
460
00:35:57,934 --> 00:36:00,402
There is no prehistoric
lake monster.
461
00:36:00,503 --> 00:36:04,564
This creature lives here in this cove.
That explains the disappearance
of these frogs,
462
00:36:04,674 --> 00:36:07,609
for which you have no explanation,
Doctor, ludicrous or not,
463
00:36:07,677 --> 00:36:10,043
- as well as the recent human attacks.
- That's crazy!
464
00:36:10,112 --> 00:36:13,673
If something was living in these waters,
you don't think I would've seen it ?
465
00:36:13,749 --> 00:36:15,876
I’ve been conducting research
here for three years.
466
00:36:15,952 --> 00:36:19,786
I'm talking about a prehistoric animal
that's gone unnoticed for virtually
thousands of years.
467
00:36:19,856 --> 00:36:21,983
If it knows how to do anything,
it knows how to hide.
468
00:36:22,058 --> 00:36:25,858
They say the Loch Ness Monster
doesn't live in the water,
it lives in the surrounding cliffs.
469
00:36:25,928 --> 00:36:31,560
Maybe Big Blue has an inland habitat,
somewhere in the rocks
or in this dense forest here.
470
00:36:31,667 --> 00:36:34,135
I have no time
for these absurdities.
471
00:36:36,105 --> 00:36:40,235
If you’ll excuse me,
I have some amphibians to release.
472
00:36:43,479 --> 00:36:45,413
Well, Captain, what now ?
473
00:36:45,481 --> 00:36:49,144
- [ Sighs ]
-[Sheriff]
Agent Scully! Agent Mulder!
474
00:36:49,218 --> 00:36:51,652
There's been another death,
475
00:36:51,721 --> 00:36:56,090
and this time it does appear to
be some kind of animal attack--
bit a fisherman's arm clean off.
476
00:36:56,158 --> 00:36:59,184
- Where did this happen ?
- Other side of the lake,
couple hours ago.
477
00:36:59,262 --> 00:37:01,753
My department has the cooperation
of the state police,
478
00:37:01,831 --> 00:37:04,698
plus the full use of all the Wildlife
Fish and Game Department vessels.
479
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,927
I got a full-scale
water search already underway.
480
00:37:07,036 --> 00:37:10,130
No, we need those men here,
searching this cove and these woods.
481
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:14,073
But I got 30 boats on the water already.
If we’re gonna kill this thing--
482
00:37:14,143 --> 00:37:17,408
We gotta sweep this cove.
It's here at Striker's Cove.
483
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:21,280
The boats are searching
the area of the latest attack,
and I'm not gonna move them.
484
00:37:21,350 --> 00:37:24,183
Now, if you wanna waste your time
conducting a search of these woods,
485
00:37:24,253 --> 00:37:26,847
you go right ahead--
I got me a lake monster to catch.

Sheriff,
488
00:37:32,128 --> 00:37:34,562
Agent Mulder and I would appreciate it
if you could spare us...
489
00:37:34,630 --> 00:37:37,064
two or three of your men
to assist us here.
490
00:37:37,133 --> 00:37:40,660
[ Sighs ]
All right. I'll send 'em on back.
491
00:37:43,873 --> 00:37:46,000
Thanks.

[Distant Rustling,

00:37:48,210 --> 00:37:53,238
- What was that ?
- Dr. Faraday.

[Screaming]
496
00:38:09,098 --> 00:38:12,727
- What happened ?
- My leg-- something grabbed my leg.
497
00:38:12,802 --> 00:38:15,327
- Did you see it ?
- No. [Grunts]
498
00:38:15,404 --> 00:38:19,864
It came from behind me.
Before I knew it, it had me--
shaking me back and forth.
499
00:38:19,942 --> 00:38:22,740
- Then it just let go.
- Give me your belt.
500
00:38:25,147 --> 00:38:28,548
- I didn't want to believe you.
- I think you nicked an artery.
501
00:38:28,618 --> 00:38:31,052
We've gotta get him to a hospital.
He's losing blood.
502
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,884
- Where'd it go ?
- I didn't see it.
I didn't see it. [ Groans ]
503
00:38:33,956 --> 00:38:37,790
I think I heard-- It went through
those reeds. [ Groans ]
504
00:38:37,860 --> 00:38:40,693
- Mulder, help is coming.
- You take care of him, Scully.
505
00:38:40,763 --> 00:38:42,697

All right, then. Go ahead.
519
00:40:54,964 --> 00:40:56,989
How's Dr. Faraday ?
520
00:40:58,567 --> 00:41:01,263
He'll be fine.
521
00:41:01,337 --> 00:41:03,498
- How are you ?
- I'm fine.
522
00:41:05,674 --> 00:41:08,643
Well, you slew
the big white whale, Ahab.
523
00:41:08,744 --> 00:41:12,874
- Yeah, but I still don't have
that peg leg. [ Laughs ]
- How can you be disappointed ?
524
00:41:12,948 --> 00:41:16,349
That alligator would have gone
through the local population
if you hadn't killed it.
525
00:41:16,418 --> 00:41:18,716
I know.
526
00:41:18,788 --> 00:41:22,349
I guess I just wanted
Big Blue to be real.
527
00:41:22,424 --> 00:41:25,393
I guess I see hope
in such a possibility.
528
00:41:25,461 --> 00:41:30,990
Well, there's still hope. That's why
these myths and stories have endured.
