“This is too comfortable to be a mental institution. It’s not someone’s home. Ok, Mulder, I give. What’s the story here?”

“This is a lovely place.” Scully found herself complimenting the coffee shop, but the observation was genuine.

of her reverie.

“Oh, I’d like a latte please.” It was an easy choice that required little examination of the coffee shop’s menu. Her fingers fumbled with the clasp on her purse before withdrawing her wallet in search of cash. When she glanced up, the barista’s warm expression drew her in, »

Leave it to Mulder to abandon her in New York City after the conclusion of a case in favor of a lead on a UFO sighting. Despite his offer to accompany him on this sojourn into small town America, Scully declined the invitation and reserved comment on the likelihood of another fabricated account »
