Dana Scully: a Fear of Death Rooted in Eternal Judgment

I think Scully's fear of death is rooted in a fear of judgment.

According to her faith, one either gets into Heaven or Hell (with a pit stop here or there to atone for their sins.) One would think that would be a comfort to the morally unbreakable Dana Scully.

But it isn't.

During her atheistic arc (Season 1 through early Season 2), Scully was determined to do her job and do it well. The paranoia of death didn't cling to her as it does in later seasons.... until Beyond the Sea. Her father's ghost visiting her right after his death and being channeled later through Luthor Lee Boggs, twice-- it takes its toll, unwinding the foundational principles of her life: that Death is final; and that there are no ghosts or psychics or even angels or demons, just sick men and women who abuse others through their superstitions. Scully chooses ignorance, reverting away from this new territory because "I'm afraid... I'm afraid to believe." The rest of Season 1, she didn't want to die, panicked in the face of it; but wasn't as paranoid as, again, later seasons.

Then One Breath happens: Scully experienced something she "couldn't find the words" to explain, even when facing death alongside Mulder in Dod Kalm. It's Scully who is fearless as their end approaches, reassuring Mulder he has nothing to fear based on that experience. Thus, One Breath began her agnostic arc-- where she believed, deep down, but was afraid to fully accept that belief (i.e., her shaken projections on Pfaster in Irresistible and her activated voodoo curse in Fresh Bones.) Death is a place of peace, hence why she denies it to Pfaster (we later learn in Orison.)

When we reach Season 3's Revelations, Scully's agnosticism turns to religious terror. "God is speaking, and no one is listening", she confesses to the priest-- what she means is, that God has been speaking to and judging me, and I've been failing. Thus, her paranoia of Death: not because of its finality (Season 1) or promise of peace (Season 2), but because it could find her at fault and deny her a blessed eternal life.

In Season 4, Scully doesn't want to "run back to God" in Gethsemane; but faces her fears once Death is inescapable in Redux II.

In Season 5, she battles with her religious fragility, struggling for peace after her daughter is stolen before her Christian burial (Emily) and after her spirit returns during a case with angels and demons. Scully may be more vulnerable to religious manipulation, but she is also more secure in her beliefs of a peaceful afterlife.

By Season 6, Scully continues to look upon Death as God's judgment: eternal reward or eternal torment. But then Tithonus happens: Fellig shakes Scully's convictions that eternity is a good thing, showing her the soul of an eternally tormented man... making her wonder if she is guaranteed a happy ending, after all.

This brings up to Season 7's Orison, where Scully stands in judgment of Pfaster and the "Reverend" Orison. When she murders Pfaster in cold blood, her doubts and criticisms rise up against her, brandishing her with the same immoral code-- thus, making her fear eternal condemnation from God: the end meted out to both convicts, or an immortal torment ala Alfred Fellig. This was an extremely crucial moment for her development as a character... and would have been given no resolution if not for Gillian's all things.

all things is the resolution to Scully's paranoia: "God talks back", she comes to terms with herself, and makes a final decision out of principle and not panic, out of assuredness and not anguish. Scully is secure; and she finds the stability to embrace her beliefs, religion, and faith as it should be: a source of rest, a refuge from fear.

Thanks for reading~

Enjoy!

Diana Fowley, the Four-Poster Bed Instigator (Perhaps)

I noticed something.

Mulder had a four-poster bed with space at the top for a mirror attachment in Dreamland II (screenshot courtesy of @amplifyme)--

--the season after Diana Fowley's introduction and during her "get between Mulder and Scully on CSM's orders" arc.

Diana was supposed to be alluring, captivating, and more sexually forward, yes (script here, thank you @x-files-scripts); but she was also undeniably more dominant: grabbing his hand in The End, insisting he listen to and follow her in The Beginning, and kissing him during his most vulnerable moment in One Son.

Not only that, but after she'd exited (briefly) from his life post One Son, she reappeared in time to feature in Amor Fati's sexual-turned-domestic fantasies.

And an interesting little thing happened: Mulder was not taken aback by her striking lingerie or sudden propositions (and it's very telling that Mulder was still wearing his handcuffs during the Diana Fowley seduction scene... very telling)--

--but was shocked, jarred even, when Diana told him it was time to settle down and have a family. Mulder's reaction leads us to conclude that Diana wanting kids came right out of leftfield for him.

Amor Fati explored her from Mulder's perspective: that she called the shots in their relationship, yes (Mulder did have children with her, for example), but also that he viewed her as the sexual instigator-- seducing instead of releasing him. It further solidifies the theory that she was the one who thought up that four-poster bed (more so, perhaps, than her "loser by choice" ex.)

This might also explain why Mulder continued using the four-poster waterbed (less hassle to use than replace)

only until it sprung a leak; then bought a normal bed that did not, indeed, have four posters.

It's very, very interesting that Mulder's bedroom was shown to have a four-poster bed during the Diana Fowley arc; that it stuck around only a few episodes after that; but was ultimately written out and replaced soon after her One Son exit-- all within one season.

Very interesting indeed.

(And if that be the case, the only time Diana Fowley was in his bedroom in Season 6 was after the bed had been replaced... which is also very, very interesting and very, very satisfying: a nice, subtle way of sticking it to her, even though that was likely just a writing coincidence.)
