Lyda quotes from The X-Files

I think maybe the ghosts have been playing tricks on you.

Scully

I don't believe in ghosts.

Then what are you doing here?

Scully

It's my partner.

He believes in ghosts?

Scully

Yeah.

Oh, you poor child. You must have an awful small life. Spending your Christmas Eve with him... Running around chasing things you don't even believe in.

Scully

Don't come any closer.

(coming closer) I can see it in your face... The fear... The conflicted yearnings... A subconscious desire to find fulfillment through another. Intimacy through co-dependency.

Scully

What?

Maybe you repress the truth about why you're really here pretending it's out of duty or loyalty-- unable to admit your dirty little secret. Your only joy in life is proving him wrong.

Scully

You don't know me.

I hope you're not expecting any great advantages to all this.

Mulder

To all what?

I'm assuming you came here with similar misconceptions.

Mulder

We came here looking for you.

Oh, yeah? You didn't come here to be together for eternity?

Mulder

(chuckling) No.

Because you're filled with despair and woeful Christmas melancholy?

Mulder

Why?

(sighing) Maybe it was your partner then.

Mulder

(folding his arms) What about her?

You knew this house was haunted.

Mulder

Yeah.

Maybe you two should have discussed your real feelings before you came out here. I'm speaking from experience.

I don't show my hole to just anyone.

Mulder

(grimaces, looks away) Why are you showing it to me?

The bodies under the floor - maybe that was just some kind of Jungian symbolism. Or maybe... there's a secret lovers' pact.

Mulder

(sighs; smiles) We're not lovers.

And this isn't a pure science. But you're both so attractive and there'll be a lot of time to work that out.
