THE MPEMBA EFFECT
MULDER
I recap: several young victims within the previous months, same area, mysterious deaths.
Their heart froze instantly and literally. Scully, your autopsies and investigations had confirmed that. No complete logical and scientific theories to support the facts.
Though, we have a serious lead, I hope we'd be able to find and stop somehow the murderer, a man with a psychic Mpemba Effect ability.
SCULLY
Another crazy case, another Mulder's theory: Hot water can freeze faster than cold water. Metaphorically or for real ? I doubt we'll know someday.
We succeeded, but on the field I feared the most for Mulder, his heart has nearly frozen. Sometimes he empathizes so much with the victims, his feelings warming up, making him highly vulnerable. Especially in this case. I had to be the one keeping cold.
M&S
It's always how we overcome tough cases: team job, perfect complementary skills, watching each other back.
All these years, each of us has been highly emotionally affected by investigations we came through.
We cannot keep our hearts into a stronghold, we are always potentially defenseless against all kinds of Mpemba Effects... Especially Mulder.
