This is the hoax into which you've been drawn. 190 00:17:29,749 --> 00:17:32,650 The roots go back 50 years to the end of World War II. 191 00:17:32,718 --> 00:17:35,551 Playing on a national appetite for bogus revelation 192 00:17:35,655 --> 00:17:38,749 and a public newly fearful of the atom bomb, 193 00:17:38,858 --> 00:17:44,228 the US military command fanned the flames of what were called "flying saucer' stories. 194 00:17:44,330 --> 00:17:46,764 There are truths which can kill a nation. 195 00:17:46,866 --> 00:17:50,734 The military needed something to deflect attention away from its arms strategy: 196 00:17:50,836 --> 00:17:54,772 global domination through the capability of total enemy annihilation. 197 00:17:54,874 --> 00:17:57,570 The nuclear card was fine if we alone could play it, 198 00:17:57,677 --> 00:18:01,238 but the generals knew they could not win a public-relations war. 199 00:18:01,714 --> 00:18:06,083 Those photos from Hiroshima were not faces Americans wanted to see in a mirror. 200 00:18:06,185 --> 00:18:08,881 Oppenheimer knew it, but we silenced him. 201 00:18:08,955 --> 00:18:13,756 When the Russians developed the bomb, the fear in the military was for armistice. 202 00:18:14,860 --> 00:18:17,795 The business of America isn't business, it's war. 203 00:18:17,897 --> 00:18:20,957 Since Antietam nothing has driven the economy faster. 204 00:18:21,067 --> 00:18:23,399 We needed a reason to keep spending money. 205 00:18:23,469 --> 00:18:26,700 If there wasn't a war, we called it war anyway. 206 00:18:26,772 --> 00:18:30,139 The Cold War was essentially a 50-year public-relations battle, 207 00:18:30,242 --> 00:18:33,803 a pitched game of chicken against an enemy we only called names. 208 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,077 The Communists called us a few names, too. 209 00:18:36,148 --> 00:18:38,639 "We will bury you", Khrushchev said. 210 00:18:38,751 --> 00:18:43,154 The public believed it. After what McCarthy had done, they ate it with a big spoon. 211 00:18:43,255 --> 00:18:46,281 We squared off a few times, in Cuba, Korea and Vietnam. 212 00:18:46,392 --> 00:18:51,227 - Nobody dropped the bomb. Nobody dared. - What has this to do with flying saucers? 213 00:18:51,297 --> 00:18:55,097 The US military saw a good thing in '47 when the Roswell story broke. 214 00:18:55,167 --> 00:18:59,331 The more we denied it, the more people believed it was true. Aliens had landed: 215 00:18:59,438 --> 00:19:03,932 a made-to-order cover story for generals looking to develop the national war chest. 216 00:19:04,010 --> 00:19:09,107 They opened investigations called Grudge, Twinkle, Project "Blue Book", Majestic 12. 217 00:19:09,181 --> 00:19:11,411 They brought in professors, congressmen, 218 00:19:11,484 --> 00:19:16,478 fed them enough bogus facts, fuzzy photos and eyewitnesses that they believed it, too. 219 00:19:16,589 --> 00:19:19,524 They'd even hooked Doug MacArthur, for God's sake. 220 00:19:19,625 --> 00:19:22,287 I can't tell you how fortuitous the timing was. 221 00:19:22,361 --> 00:19:26,457 You know when the first supersonic flight was? 1947. 222 00:19:26,532 --> 00:19:30,298 Soon every experimental aircraft being flown was a UFO sighting. 223 00:19:30,369 --> 00:19:33,463 When the abduction stories started up, it was too perfect. 224 00:19:33,539 --> 00:19:37,976 We'd almost gotten caught in Korea, a misstep. China and the Soviets knew it. 225 00:19:38,044 --> 00:19:39,875 The UN got heated up. 226 00:19:39,979 --> 00:19:43,972 Germ warfare. We were accused of using it on the Koreans. 227 00:19:47,953 --> 00:19:51,445 It was developmental, nothing like what we and the Russians have now. 228 00:19:51,524 --> 00:19:55,984 The bio-weapons used in the Gulf War were so ingenious as to be almost undetectable. 229 00:19:56,062 --> 00:20:00,658 - Developed right in this very building. - And these abductions, they've been lies? 230 00:20:00,733 --> 00:20:05,227 Not lies, exactly. But citizens taken unsuspecting and tested. 231 00:20:05,337 --> 00:20:09,205 A classified military project above top-secret and still ongoing. 232 00:20:09,308 --> 00:20:13,210 You've heard the recent denials about Roswell by the military and the CIA? 233 00:20:13,312 --> 00:20:16,748 What's been the effect? Even wilder and more widespread belief. 234 00:20:16,849 --> 00:20:19,909 The American appetite for bogus revelation. 235 00:20:20,019 --> 00:20:23,978 But I've seen aliens. I've witnessed these things. 236 00:20:24,056 --> 00:20:26,991 You've seen what they wanted you to see. 237 00:20:32,665 --> 00:20:37,227 The line between science and science fiction doesn't exist. This is about control, 238 00:20:37,336 --> 00:20:41,033 of the very elements of life - DNA. Yours, mine, everyone's. 239 00:20:41,107 --> 00:20:42,574 Then why a hoax? 240 00:20:42,675 --> 00:20:46,008 Why create hard evidence, an alien body that could be disproved? 241 00:20:46,078 --> 00:20:48,740 The body you found was so good, so believable, 242 00:20:48,848 --> 00:20:52,579 that only a scientific examination would have proven the fraud. 243 00:20:52,685 --> 00:20:55,176 Scully would have known. 244 00:20:55,254 --> 00:21:00,248 The hoax was planned so that Agent Scully wouldn't be alive to do an examination. 245 00:21:01,260 --> 00:21:05,219 You went along with all this. You let them do this to Scully. 246 00:21:06,532 --> 00:21:09,592 I paid the price, Agent Mulder. 247 00:21:09,702 --> 00:21:13,263 When my son came back sick from the Gulf War, that was my retribution. 248 00:21:13,372 --> 00:21:16,205 I'm helping you now, but not unselfishly. 249 00:21:16,275 --> 00:21:19,301 Do you believe there's a cure for him in here, too? 250 00:21:19,411 --> 00:21:21,936 I have to think there is. 251 00:21:43,569 --> 00:21:46,902 Michael Kritschgau, may we talk to you? 252 00:21:46,972 --> 00:21:49,907 - What about? - DOD is detaining you for questioning. 253 00:21:49,975 --> 00:21:52,637 Would you come with us, Mr Kritschgau? 254 00:21:53,078 --> 00:21:55,638 Sir? 255 00:22:21,307 --> 00:22:25,869 I was told that you needed to see me. That there was some urgency. 256 00:22:27,646 --> 00:22:31,138 - It seems I've been left out of the loop. - Left out? 257 00:22:33,052 --> 00:22:36,453 You were watching Mulder. You had a man on him. 258 00:22:37,690 --> 00:22:40,625 No one bothered to inform me of this. 259 00:22:42,127 --> 00:22:44,459 I know nothing about a man. 260 00:22:44,530 --> 00:22:47,829 I will not be cut out like this! 261 00:22:47,900 --> 00:22:50,528 You need my expertise. 262 00:22:53,839 --> 00:22:55,898 Is this being run from DOD? 263 00:22:56,008 --> 00:22:59,000 If it is, I'm unaware of it. 264 00:23:01,046 --> 00:23:04,345 I've always kept Mulder in check. 265 00:23:04,416 --> 00:23:07,351 I put this whole thing together.

Without his partner, we may have underestimated his fragility. 270 00:23:24,403 --> 00:23:27,065 I've never underestimated Mulder. 271 00:23:30,175 --> 00:23:32,735 I still don't. 272 00:23:47,192 --> 00:23:49,592 As you'd asked, I've tested some of the cellular material 273 00:23:49,695 --> 00:23:52,687 found in the ice-core sample. 274 00:23:52,765 --> 00:23:56,257 Because we couldn't identify it as either plant or animal, 275 00:23:56,368 --> 00:23:59,360 only as some kind of chimeric hybrid, 276 00:23:59,438 --> 00:24:03,238 I put some of the cells in media containing foetal bovine serum. 277 00:24:03,309 --> 00:24:05,038 The cells began to divide. 278 00:24:05,611 --> 00:24:07,909 Then they were animal cells that you found. 279 00:24:08,213 --> 00:24:13,276 - They are not classifiable. - You said there was mitotic cell division. 280 00:24:13,385 --> 00:24:16,286 When the cells began to divide they didn't just multiply. 281 00:24:16,388 --> 00:24:21,451 They began to go through the stages of morula, blastula, gastrula. 282 00:24:22,461 --> 00:24:25,988 - They began somatic development? - The beginning of a life form. 283 00:24:32,338 --> 00:24:36,104 Growing into what...
