6X12: ONE SON

< PREVIOUS


Scully opens a locker to find a dull gray dress. She's disgusted and hangs it back up as Mulder enters. Scully is pissed that they've burned her Armani suit. Mulder quips that "gray is the new black." Scully is upset. "Mulder, this stinks, and not just because I think that woman is a... well, I think you know what I think that woman is." Mulder gets that sarcastic expression, but he's also slightly amused. "No. Actually, you hide your feelings very well." Scully thinks that Spender calling the CDC is BS and this is just a "hi-tech government kidnapping." Mulder called Skinner and confirmed that Spender did call the CDC. "But she wasn't sick, Mulder. I mean, the remarkable thing is she was well. She could wiggle her toes and she even danced a jig." Mulder asks Scully to explain why Cassandra wanted to be killed. Scully thinks it's because Cassandra is sick of the tests, she just wants it to be over and "they've" taken her so the tests can continue. Mulder says the tests won't continue and that Cassandra knows what she is. She knows it's dangerous for her to be alive. Scully: "You don't mean that 'Southern Oracle' crap?" Mulder: "I think she's the one, Scully."

Syndicate Office in NYC. Alex "One-Armed Leather Sex Machine" Krycek is giving CSM and his cronies the 411 on the Cassandra situation. He recovered all the medical files he could could get his hands, I mean hand, on. The doctors who examined her said that she might be the culmination "of 25 years of this group's finest efforts." Rocko, or Third Elder, guesses that's why the rebels attacked. That they were trying to kill her. Krycek points out that they killed everyone but Cassandra, when they could've easily fried that crazy freakshow to a crisp. Krycek says that they did it to keep her alive, to prevent them from killing her. Doug, or First Elder, asks what the rebels want. Rocko says they want to destroy the Syndicate because they know once the (other) aliens learn about Cassandra, colonization will start. The Fourth Elder, let's call him Heffer, says they must destroy Cassandra. CSM pipes up to nay Cassandra's destruction and to just let colonization begin. "Save ourselves." Heffer comments that Bill Mulder was against this whole thing. CSM says that Bill Mulder sacrificed Samantha because he knew this day would come. "What choice have we... If you want to see your families survive? If we want to see those we sacrificed returned to us?"

Chris Carter: *exhales* Ok, I think I've got an idea. *passes*

Frank Spotnitz: *exhales* What's that? *passes*

Chris Carter: *exhales* Why don't we bring back that crazy Cassandra and she can be the first successful alien/human hybrid? *passes*


Frank Spotnitz: *exhales* Ok. But what about the Samantha clones and the Kurt Crawfords? Weren't they hybrids? *passes*

Chris Carter: *exhales* Um... let's just say they were unsuccessful. *passes*

Frank Spotnitz: *exhales* Well, what's Cassandra gonna do this time around? *passes*

Chris Carter: *exhales* She can be returned from the tests and then she can do... something. I don't know. *passes*

Frank Spotnitz: *exhales* Why don't we bring the faceless rebels back, too? *passes*

Chris Carter: *exhales* That's a great idea. I think we're onto something. The rebels can burn up some project doctors but Cassandra is found unharmed. Then we'll somehow get Mulder and Scully to find out about her relation to Cancer Man. Oh! Mulder can find out that his father and CSM were working on secret government projects. *passes*

Frank Spotnitz: *exhales* Yeah, but that's something Mulder already knows. *passes*


Chris Carter: *exhales* Who's even gonna remember that? *passes*
