* Mulder and Scully having an impromptu slow-dance at the very end of the "The Post-Modern Prometheus". That the episode itself was something of a CMOA for the season or series which earned it seven Emmy nominations and a parade of rave reviews enhances the good feeling. David Duchovny would go on to say that whatever came after, for him, that one moment would always remain his favorite.
* "The Unnatural" is just one long CMOH.
* Scully's passionate speech to Mulder in the first season episode "E.B.E." is so unexpected coming from her but also completely natural after all they've been through together.
{{quote| "I have never met anyone [[Agent Mulder|so passionate and dedicated to a belief]] as you. It's so intense that sometimes it's blinding. But there are others who are watching you, who know what I know, and... *[[Beat]]* Whereas I can respect and admire your passion, they will use it against you. Mulder, the truth ''is'' out there. But so are lies." }}
** And the best part of it? The next scene reveals that Mulder has agreed with her in his own [[Tsundere]] way. It also marks the point where Scully becomes the only person Mulder trusts (and vice versa).
* "Folie a Deux", and Mulder telling Scully she's his "one in five billion".
Line 10:
** This gets an adorable [[Call Back]] when Scully amends the song for her baby: "William was a bullfrog..."
* From "End Game":
{{quote| '''Mulder''': I'm sorry, I, uh... I couldn't let you risk your life on this.<br />
'''Scully''': Did you find what you were looking for?<br />
'''Mulder''': No. But I found something I thought I'd lost. (looks at her, then takes her hand) Faith to keep looking. }}
* From the second film, there's Skinner hugging Mulder to keep him warm.
* The seventh season episode "Requim" has the totally adorable cuddling scene.
* The ending of "Beyond The Sea".
{{quote| '''Mulder''': Dana... after all you’ve seen, after all the evidence…why can’t you believe?<br />
'''Scully''': I’m afraid. I’m afraid to believe.<br />
'''Mulder''': You couldn’t face that fear? Even if it meant never knowing what your father wanted to tell you?<br />
'''Scully''': But I do know.<br />
'''Mulder''': How?<br />
(''[[Beat]]'')<br />
'''Scully''': He was my father. }}
* Mulder's speech to Scully in the hallway of his apartment building in "Fight the Future."
Line 27:
* The "touchstone" speech from "The Sixth Extinction: Amor Fati."
