Dr Pugovel: "They're called smart metals. The idea is to one day build things that are indestructible. Cars, equipment, built of alloys with molecular memory. If damaged, they'd rebuild into their original forms."
Doggett: "All by themselves? That's amazing!"
Dr Pugovel: "And right now, all a metallurgist's pipe dream. But beside the point of your visit, I would imagine."
Doggett: "Hey, it's Agent Doggett. I'm at Chamber Technologies."
Scully: "Did you find Dr Clifton?"
Doggett: "He's no longer with the company. But his successor says his work here was entirely conceptual. Everything's done on computers."
Scully: "What kind of conceptual work?"
Doggett: "Thing called smart metals. It's pretty incredible ? metal alloys designed to rebuild themselves."
Scully: "I wonder. As it happens Ray Pearce's illness is pretty incredible, too. I've reviewed Ray's medical records from the VA. What his wife was calling Gulf War Syndrome is nothing of the kind. His entire cellular makeup was affected by exposure to some non-identifiable contaminant ? a metal."
Doggett: "What are you saying? Ray Pearce has become some kind of metal man? Because that only happens in the movies, Agent Scully."
Scully: "Does it, Agent Doggett?"
Doggett: "Tell you what. I'll press this guy here a little more on the issue."
Scully: "Well, maybe there's a reason why he's not being perfectly forthcoming."
Scully: "Agent Doggett, the man that we're speaking about withstood impact from a speeding car, and two shotgun blasts at short range. Even if we can find him, who's to say we can stop him?"
Doggett: "All by themselves? That's amazing!"

Was David Duchovny was behind the directing/writing for that episode?
Regardless, all episodes he writes and directs were pure gold

Damn. That's one of the seasons I'm missing.
PS. If anyone wants to give up seasons 4, 7 and 8 of The X-Files, let me know.
