Mulder and Scully Watch The X-Files Revival Trailer

Summary:

Title says it all.

Notes:

This silly little piece will not make much sense unless you know the show really well along with all its in-jokes. Let's see if you can spot the Madeleine Partous reference.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

MULDER & SCULLY chill on a couch, drinking beer and munching popcorn.

MULDER: Ominous music, check.
SCULLY: Ominous objects in space, check.  

“It will probably start on a Friday”

SCULLY: Crap, I have Zumba classes on Fridays. 
MULDER: Can't you reschedule? 
SCULLY: For the End of The World? Possibly. Juan is pretty strict about attendance, though. 
MULDER: Tell him the survival of fitness clothing is at stake.
SCULLY (shrugging): I could try. He does love his neon leggings.

MULDER: Did they just say 'well-oiled'?
SCULLY: They sure did. 
MULDER: I have a bad feeling about this.
SCULLY: Fear you're gonna end up stuck under some chicken wire again?
MULDER: Or having to undergo alien acupuncture again, yep. 
SCULLY: You did say it did wonder for your back. 
MULDER: After a fashion. I'm still unsure what it did for my crotch. 
SCULLY: And that's a ten foot pole I am so not going near. 
MULDER: You used to, Honey Bunch.
SCULLY: Shut up, Mulder.

SCULLY: Oh look, alien technology and more edematous folks.
MULDER: You know Scully, you're gonna have to learn to pronounce it right this time around. 
SCULLY: Bite me, Mulder. 

MULDER: Hey, look, that's me, with cool shades. Yeah man.
SCULLY: ... and rocking an 'Occupy Wall Street' look, I see.
MULDER: We Are Legion, Scully.
SCULLY: So are they, it seems. Oh, there’s Tad. Hi Tad (waves).
MULDER: Followed by a phallic symbol, smooth, Chris, smooth. 
SCULLY: You're just jealous, Poopy Head. 
MULDER: Nah, he ain't soulmate material. I'm not worried. 
SCULLY: Say that to the Shippers. 
MULDER: Let them read fic. Ah, behold The Creepy Old Man. Can't have a good X-File without one. 
SCULLY (yawning): So you've seen something and you're close. What else is new?
MULDER: Apparently, we get to ride in a Limo.
SCULLY: I guess that’s an upgrade from the ice pods they like to stick me in.

MULDER: Hey, that’s our old basement office. 
SCULLY: And it looks like you no longer have a desk. (elbows him) Karma’s a bitch, Mulder.

MULDER: Wait, did I just...
SCULLY: ... ripped your fave poster with your boot? Yes, you did.
MULDER (outraged): Arrest this man! He's obviously a Bounty Hunter! I would never do such a thing!!!

SCULLY: Hold on. WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO MY HAIR???
MULDER: I hear it's the latest style on Zeta Reticula. 
SCULLY (glaring): Someone will pay for this.
MULDER: Dear 1013, I hope you guys won't need the use of your left shoulder in the foreseeable future...
SCULLY: Nope, I'm aiming lower this time.
MULDER: Ouch. Hey, at least I've got my suit back. Lookin’ good FBI. 

SCULLY: Let's hope they gave me some killer heels to make up for this... oooh, well, hello Assistant Director Skinner, you bearded marvel you. 
MULDER: I just got very turned on. 
SCULLY (dreamily): I bet his beard isn't scratchy. 
MULDER: We're gonna have to flip a coin...
SCULLY: I'll take heads.
MULDER: I bet you do. OW! 

SCULLY: Serves you right. (squints) What exactly are you doing to my shoulders?
MULDER: Erm... checking for alien implants?
SCULLY: In my shoulders. 
MULDER: Those aliens are getting crafty, Scully. 
SCULLY: Riiiight.

MULDER: Your car is filthy, G-woman. 
SCULLY: It's not dirt, Mulder, it's obvious the windows are steamed up. Me and A.D. Skinner must have been having a Titanic moment. 
MULDER: Or maybe I was. 
SCULLY: Wasn’t yours in a Lariat rental with Frohike?  
MULDER: I’m not even going to dignify this with an answer.

MULDER:Aw, look, we still have our flashlights.
SCULLY: Good, the darkness will hide my hair. Uh-oh, last time I saw that look on your face you were in a padded cell. 
MULDER: But, but, Scully, listen: “I know what I'm doing”. 
SCULLY: Oh, brother. I have a nine-year list worth of evidence to the contrary. Shall I read it to you? I’ve made bullet points.
MULDER: Maybe I’ve learnt from my mistakes.
SCULLY: Sure, and aliens just came to Earth to steal the Cronut recipe.
MULDER: Fine, whatever.

MULDER: Oh, hi Dad.
SCULLY: Wasn't he blown to smithereens by a missile?
MULDER: Evil never dies, Scully.
SCULLY: Just like this franchise. 
MULDER: Come on, don't tell me you're not excited.
SCULLY (pouting): Does it have to start on a Friday? 
MULDER: Look, if it makes you feel better, I'll get us a sleeping bag. 
SCULLY:  Do you think Skinner knows the Lyrics for “Joy to The World”?
MULDER: I like the way you think. 
SCULLY: I know. 

Notes:

I was drugged.
