Mulder: I'm not a doctor Scully, but you've got to be pushing pretty hard to mistake a beer belly for a bald head – not to mention door number three. [He indicates operating room number as he exits. Scully follows and they watch monitor in another OR.] Mulder: It's amazing that no one saw him in time to stop him. Scully: Maybe they were all possessed. Mulder: I don't think it's just a simple possession, Scully. I think it's more like sorcery or black magic or something like that. |
Yup that's Mulder for you. Skip right to the black magic theory. We wouldn't want to muck up a perfectly good case by ruling out incompetence or drug use first.
Mulder wastes no time coming up with a possession theory. In fact he even goes so far as to suggest it to the suspect while questioning him. Could he be more leading? Why didn't he just fill out the statement for the man while he was at it.
Mulder seems to be having a problem keeping his attention on Scully at the hospital while she is going over the doctor's medical records. He nearly tripped over his feet ogling not one but two women.
Okay while checking out the crime scene Mulder sees five marks on the "new state of the art floor." So Mulder takes an object and uses the blood on the floor to connect the dots. When he's done it forms the shape of a pentagram. Those marks could have just as easily connected to form a pentagon. But that wouldn't have fit in with his theory.
I have only one word for the next item: Ewwwww! Now it looked as though Nurse Waite vomited pins. Now I don't know about you but I wouldn't have picked any of them up without gloves as Mulder did.
Hanging around all those plastic surgeons has had a bad effect on Mulder. He's been spending an inordinate amount of time looking in the mirror.
Here's a question for Ol' Spooky: How exactly can you tell if a pentagram is inverted. If you move over a little bit it's right-side up again.
When Mulder leaves and Scully has to ask as he's walking away it's a ditch. This one is accompanied by an over the shoulder order of "Don't let them operate on her. Hold them off until you hear from me!" Oh yeah that's real plausible.
Far be it for me to question overmuch but exactly on what basis did he kick in Nurse Waite's door? I sure as hell didn't see a warrant. Which would, as on the oh so many occasions when Mulder forgets the line between what he does for a living and criminal activity, make what he did yet another crime committed. In this case the crime was breaking and entering.
Borrowing without asking is called stealing. Which is how Mulder obtained both the calendar and the book he retrieved from Nurse Waite's house.
