) and having a fling! I read somewhere that was because Chris Carter didn’t like the idea of Scully having a sex scene on camera?

But wasn‘t scully somehow mentally influenced by the guy and hence got a tattoo?

Hmm I dunno now actually, it’s been a while

I just remember that the guy was hearing the voice from Jodie Foster that was influencing him, but then in the end Mulder says that the concentrations of what they found shouldn’t have been enough to change his behaviour all that much. I think that Scully was still herself though, just bored with her life and acting a bit out of character from how we typically see her?

As far as I remember they started hallucinating because of the ink and she got the tattoo because she wanted it...

I’m not sure the ink affected Scully.

or when he killed himself, the tattoo spirit (?) died too so it didn’t affect Scully in the future.

What's your favorite monster of the week episode? (the scary ones).

I always loved 'irresistible'....Donnie Pfaster is so scary. Same is true for Tooms. ANd then there will always be 'home'.

**Arrakis** · 12-02-2018, 11:05 AM

I didn't really like home, but the other two were great. I also liked the one with the man-sized Flatworm (The Host).

For scary ones I like Squeeze, Darkness Falls, The Host, Irresistible, Pusher, Home, Folie à Deux, Field Trip, and Roadrunners

**Arrakis** · 12-02-2018, 03:45 PM

I really liked darkness falls and folie a deux as well.

Irresistible is so creepy to me I can only watch it maybe once a year cause I used to work and be around guys like Pfaster and the actor played the creep so well!
