Mulder: [on phone] Well, she'll come, you know? It's just a matter of time. She'll show up-- I'm sure of that. Scully: [on phone] Yeah, well not before I die of malnutrition. [She picks up a slice of cold pizza, then drops it again, disgusted.] Mulder: [on phone] Hey, Scully, tough it out. Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Right? |
Right! That's some pep talk. And I'm sure it's real easy for him to say Mr. "No, no, no capers." "Talk to you later and keep warm." Puh-shaw!
On a unrelated note, I once knew a girl named Bethany who was a real piece of work. She was a nasty little snot of an eight-year-old who was rather adept at causing trouble yet making herself appear to be the victim in the teacher's eyes when you struck back. Needless to say as far as I'm concerned nothing good can come from anything called Bethany. Considering how the townsfolk seem to relate to one another (that whole side of town thing really frosted me) I can't say that this episode has done anything to make me rethink that.
Hmmmm. If you ask me, it seems that Mulder is finding his jaunt into the underbelly a bit more enjoyable than is warranted. I'm thinking that Mulder's reasons for his enjoyment have more to do with watching scantily dressed women (and thus lowering that month's porn bill) than the "ennobling aspects" of the work.
Upon getting a phone call from someone I assume to be Skinner, Mulder leaves the "room" in which he and Scully are conducting their stakeout without any explanation. Friggin' typical!
Tough it out huh? That's easy for him to say, the home-meal-fed Punk.
Mulder got his ass kicked by a girl again!
Constantly asking Skinner what he'd done to get the case, assuming of course that the assignment is a punishment for something he did. Even if it were a punishment it's probably not the wisest move he could make to continuously ask why.
