the universe is not so badly designed

“ The truth I’ve been searching for…that truth is in you. ”

“There’s a sequence after Mulder arrives back in his apartment to confirm Kurtzweil’s existence and friendship with his father where Scully comes in and says, ‘I’ve quit, I’m leaving. I’m going off to so and so, I don’t want to stay because I know you’ll talk me out of it. So I gotta leave now, bye.’ So she runs out. Mulder persues her down the hallway, has already confessed to her in the room that now is the worst time of all. ‘We’re really on to something here. I need you. I need you, I need you.’ That’s the theme of the movie, Mulder needs Scully. Never before has he come to that understanding quite so strongly as he does in this story. So, she’s running because she’s afraid that he’s gonna talk her out of it. So the best thing she can do is just hit the elevator button and go, go, go. She never makes it. This was her first mistake. And Mulder also knows that that’s where she’s headed, is out the door. So, he’s gotta tell her why it is that she’s so important to him. And tell her once and for all that in fact, the whole time that they’ve been together, that the two of them have been together, that she has made him better. She has made him feel not like an outcast, not like discarded FBI trash, but actually somebody that’s worthy of her friendship. That, as he says, she’s made him a whole person.”  — Rob Bowman, The X-Files: Fight the Future commentary
