- Arthur Dales: Don't sneer at the mysteries of the deep, young lady. The bottom of the ocean is as deep and dark as the imagination.
- Arthur Dales: Did you tell her what I told you?
- Mulder: Yes, but she's... she's not the type that's easily persuaded.
- Arthur Dales: Is that so?
- Scully: What he means is I don't hear a story about a sea monster and automatically assume it's the Lord's gospel truth.
- Arthur Dales: Why did you bring her here?
- Mulder: She knows your reputation, your early work on the X-Files and she has a knack for getting to the bottom of things.
- Angela Villareal: [rushing to the bathroom, pushing Mulder and Scully aside] Super tanker, coming through!
- Walter Suarez: Angela, you can't go in there!
- Angela Villareal: [slowly, irritated, enunciating her predicament very carefully] My bladder is pressing against your unborn child, Walter. He's going to have a head like a tortilla.
- Walter Suarez: This thing is in the plumbing.
- Angela Villareal: The volume alone could push it right back out to sea.
- Mulder: [regarding Dales's missing neighbors] She's missing, too?
- Arthur Dales: Ahuh. I got on the horn to the local constabulary but they're about as helpful as a fart in a windstorm.
- Walter Suarez: Well, maybe it'll flow just flow back out.
- George Vincent: Or maybe it'll come up through the can and grab you by the nugs.
- Mulder: Someone's alrady got him by the nugs.
