"Thanks Zoe, thanks form my fish, too. I'll be back in a week and I'll drop
off your 5 dollars as soon as I get in... ok... two pinches of food...right...bye."
Mulder hung up the phone after arranging for his 6 year old neighbor to
feed his fish while he was in Chicago.

"You've GOT to be kidding me mom. NO WAY. I'm not going! How could you volunteer me for this? You didn't even ask!" Dana Scully was livid. He mother had told her that Charlie would be meeting them at a television studio because he got 4 tickets to Maury. Scully was less than shocked; she figured that her mother would drag her to one of those mindless time- wasters. What she ha not counted on was being part of the circus itself. The theme? "Guess who?" Yeah, reunions, first meetings and secret admirers. Scully was furious. What she really wanted to do was scream and throw a temper tantrum but she was surrounded by guests, make-p artists, and audience members, and she did not feel like making a fool of herself. "Although", she thought, "that's exactly what I'll be doing when I get out there." Finally she agreed to go, but only after being promised 4 lunches out, dinner, a new suede coat and shoes to match. Besides, all her co- workers would be at work when this aired...hopefully. She had found out that she would be one of the guests with a secret admirer. She was almost fully sure it was Pendrell come back from the dead...or Skinner. "Haha, Mulder would get a kick out of that." She thought. Mulder. She envied him sitting home with nothing to do. She longed for an hour long bath rather than an hour of humiliation on cable TV.
*** More to come, sorry about the short chapter. I'm having computer problems. Should I keep going? Or table it?? Lemme know!
