Fisher would be on maternity leave for seven weeks -- hopefully enough time for Blevins to find her an office of her own. The office was clean except for a big inter-office envelope on the desk. Sitting behind the borrowed desk, Scully was surprised the envelope was for her -- she only found out about this office assignment this morning. She spilled the envelope's contents, several audio cassettes, on the desk before pulling out an accompanying note. She still didn't know how but she knew who -- Mulder. S.- Spoke with D. Morris. Still not cooperating, probably never will. I mailed Ruby my card with my home number if she wants to talk. Thought you'd be interested in these. You have my number if you want to talk. M. Scully looked at the tapes -- F. Mulder, Hypnotic Regression Therapy. Maybe this would help her understand why he kept walking into that room. x-x-x In "Office Politics" I had Scully spending her first few months going from spare empty office to spare empty office before "Ghost in the Machine". A big thank you to the fabulous Shari who is too wonderful for words. Thank you also to the RetroX Team -- you folks are making this so much fun! Feedback is prettier than Kevin's sketch of Ruby -- Maureen_B_Ocks@yahoo.com
