Star Trek: TNG -Data: The Sons

MULDER : 
You know, when I, uh... 
I first came to work at the FBI, 
I worked at Violent Crimes, 
and I saw, I saw 
The Worst of Humanity
I saw monsters and I wondered 
how they became that way
how these men became so evil

I know there were psychological explanations-- 
Victims of their environment, 
Victims of their parents-- 

But the scientific explanations 
were never truly satisfying. 

And I began to think about Evil like, like a disease

You know, that it goes from 
man to man or age to age

Most of us walk around thinking 
we're incapable of any 
Acts of Evil and we are

You know, we can stifle 
that momentary urge 
to kill or to hurt. 

We have some kind of 
immunity to it. 

But I think it's possible 
that there's... 

An occurrence 
in somebody's life, 
a Tragedy or a Loss 
that leaves them vulnerable
hurts their 
Immunity to Evil, 
and all of a sudden 
at that point 
in their lives when 
they're weakened

They're open to Evil and
they can become Evil.

DOGGETT
If that were True, 
then what you're saying is... 

Is that this man 
we wheeled in here tonight 
is Infected with Evil, 
The Same Evil 
that killed My Son. 

You really believe that, Agent Mulder?

MULDER
Uh, I'm not really a good test 
for questions like that. 

I'll believe almost anything
you know, but the, uh... 

The pisser is,
You may never know

It may be like Agent Reyes says. 
It could be random and meaningless-- 
Who it Affects, Who it Goes to.


DOGGETT: 
What if it isn't?
