the reason mulder is very suave and cool during the first episode and then never again is because he spent 3 years alone in a basement thinking of dope shit to say to impress girls. “nobody down here but the fbi’s most unwanted” “that’s why they put the i in fbi” “something cosmic” like COME ON!! bro’s been practicing those lines he made flash cards he rehearsed them in the mirror. problem is he got too excited and used them all within the first like 2 weeks so by the fifth episodes he’s like.
