CANADA V5N 3X5 Cast of Characters (alphabetically by actor's name) =================================================== Agent Dana Katherine Scully (Gillian Anderson -- pronounced [JILL-ee-an]) Dr. Dana Scully plays the skeptic, insisting that everything has a logical scientific explanation, although her exposure to the X-Files certainly has given her cause to question her own beliefs. She was assigned to work with Agent Mulder to keep an eye on him and determine if his activities are worth the time he spends working on them. She was recruited out of medical school and saw the FBI as a place to distinguish herself. Agent Fox "Spooky" Mulder (David Duchovny -- pronounced [doo-KUV-nee]) Agent Fox Mulder is one of the FBI's greatest detectives with his photographic memory and his background as a psychologist which has helped him to profile many serial killers. His interest in the paranormal made him dig into the X-Files and also gave some higher officials in the bureau cause to believe him eccentric, reinforcing the nickname "Spooky" which he received in the academy. His fascination with extraterrestial life began in his childhood when his sister disappeared - Fox claims she was abducted by aliens. Other Important Players ======================= "Smoking Man" (William B. Davis) A quiet man of whom little is known, but he does seem to hold a position of power even though much of his job entails storing top secret items in the Pentagon. (Note: The name "Smoking Man" was taken from the credits following episode:"Tooms.") h)0*0*0*Ԍ"Deep Throat" (Jerry Hardin) This mysterious and influential man first appeared to warn Mulder about Ellens Air Force Base. He has provided Mulder with a lot of classified information, and in doing so, places his own life in danger. His reasons for helping Mulder are his own, but he claims that it is a form of penitence. (Note: The name "Deep Throat" was given to him by the writers and was first spoken aloud in "The Erlenmeyer Flask.") Special Agent Alex Krycek (Nicholas Lea) Krycek insinuates himself as Mulder's partner while Mulder and Scully are kept divided. While he appears to be a believer, his agenda definitely doesn't jive with Mulder's. Assistant Director Walter S. Skinner (Mitch Pileggi) One of the heads of the FBI who seems to be under orders to eliminate the X-Files division and is searching for a way to hinder Mulder's efforts at every turn. "Mr. X" (Steven Williams) An acquaintance of Deep Throat who also has given Mulder secret information to further his investigations. However, unlike Deep Throat,this information seems to be given reluctantly. (Note: The name "Mr. X" was given by the writers.)

He stumbled upon these files, dealing with unexplained phenomena, during his first three years with the Bureau, as a crack analyst in the Bureau's behavioral sciences department. [Chris Carter, _Starlog #201_, April 1994] His fascination with the paranormal stems from a childhood incident -- his sister Samantha disappeared from their home in Chilmark, Mass. (pop. 650) when he was 12 and she was 8. Mulder claims she was abducted by aliens; during regressions he recalled hearing his sister's cries for help, and a bright light which kept him paralyzed and told him that his sister would be all right. [Conduit] This memory differs from a dream Mulder experienced one night [Little Green Men]. Mulder's early meteoric rise at the Bureau enabled him to make high-placed friends in Congress -- one of them being SETI proponent and influential senator Richard Matheson [Little Green Men]. These contacts had kept him from retribution from higher-ups, although they assigned him a partner, with the tacit idea of discrediting what he does so that he can be dismissed. However, Mulder picked up a somewhat vacillating ally in a mysterious covert individual known as Deep Throat. [Deep Throat, Fallen Angel, Eve, Young at Heart, E.B.E., Erlenmeyer Flask]. Deep Throat was killed by an equally mysterious covert opponent (Crew Cut Man) during an attempt to rescue Mulder. Mulder confirmed his burial at Arlington "through eight-power binoculars from a thousand yards away." [Little Green Men]. But he has acquired a second "deep information" associate, someone who calls himself Mr. X. [Sleepless] This mysterious man has been less than helpful to Mulder than his dead colleague. Mulder has also been told by an unknown individual that he has "a friend in the FBI" [The Host]. This friend was discovered to be Assistant Director Skinner [One Breath]. At the end of Season 1, the X Files division was shuth)0*0*0*Ԍdown and Mulder was reassignedto wiretap surveillance [Little Green Men, The Host]. He also reluctantly acquired a new partner, Special Agent Alex Krycek [Sleepless, Duane Barry, Ascension], a younger agent who purported to be a believer, not only in Mulder's ideas but in Mulder himself. But Mulder's days in this mind-numbing duty were numbered. Assistant Director Skinner obliquely acknowledged that the X Files bureau served a valuable purpose in dealing successfully with the Bureau's oddball cases [The Host] and was bringing to light information that other covert parties would prefer to keep buried [Ascension]. Following the disappearance of Mulder's former partner Dana Scully, Skinner officially reopened the X Files [Ascension]. Mulder is known around the Bureau by the nickname of "Spooky" [Pilot, Young at Heart] because of his interest in paranormal phenomena. "He is considered a loose cannon, a person who is maybe wasting time and money, and also his expertise, on an area the Bureau thinks has very little value." [Carter, Starlog] Due to an incident on one of his first Bureau assignments (a fellow agent was killed) [Young at Heart], he eschews following investigations "by the book," opting instead for his own instincts and methods. He keeps notes for his field reports in a handwritten journal [Born Again]. We believe Mulder doesn't "have a life," as we have seen nothing of his off-duty activities. However, some of this may stem from a relationship he had at Oxford ten years ago with a woman who is now with Scotland Yard (Phoebe Green [Fire]). He apparently was in love with her but she not with him. With the dissolution of the X Files division, however, Mulder may have been trying to revive his social life; an answering machine message berated him for missing a lunch date [Little Green Men]. Mulder has a fear of fire [Fire], which may have been conquered during his rescue of the children of British MP Sir Malcolm Marsden (who also happened to be Phoebe's latest fling). He is also a fan of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). [Space] He has a habit of unshelling shelled sunflower seeds, and making droll comments which X-Philes have come to note as "Mulderisms." Mulder enjoys wearing wild ties to work, and seems to be a New York Knicks fan. He appears to had a fondness for classic rock [minor references, Beyond the Sea, Gender Bender] and classic science fiction movies [Tooms, Erlenmeyer Flask], and iced tea seems to be his nonalcoholic beverage of choice [Tooms]. There are "hints" that Mulder has an interest in pornography -- in one episode, we see Mulder looking at the centerfold of some "men's magazine" talking about how the woman claims she was abducted by aliens; in another episode Scully remarks that she hadn't seen Mulder that excited since she caught him going through the Adult Video News; a third episodeh)0*0*0*Ԍmentions a subscription to Celebrity Skin. As a psychologist, he favors using hypnotic regression as a psychological healing tool, and hates the unnecessary use of medication [Born Again]. /Deep Background - Dana Scully/ Dana Katherine Scully is a medical doctor with an undergraduate degree in physics from the University of Maryland [Jersey Devil]. She was recruited for the FBI right out of medical school, and had been teaching at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Va. She was assigned by Section Chief Scott Blevins to be Mulder's partner in order to keep an eye on him and determine whether he is perhaps too obsessed with the X files. Scully is skeptical of anything paranormal, believing that everything has a logical, scientifically-quantified explanation. Though in most of the cases she and Mulder have been on she has not witnessed any overt paranormal activities, she has had brushes with unexplainable phenomena that may have her start questioning her beliefs [Beyond the Sea; Lazarus; Born Again; Erlenmeyer Flask]. At the end of Season 1, the X Files division was shut down and Scully was reassigned, returning to the FBI academy at Quantico, Va. to isntruct new agents on the bascis of forensic medicine [Little Green Men]. However, Mulder has called upon her expertise in violent crime cases to which he has been assigned [The Host, Blood]. Scully was abducted by escaped mental patient Duane Barry and disappeared [Ascension]. After a three-minth absence, she showed up at a Georgetown hospital in a coma {One Breath]. She revived and recovered, and is back as Mulder's partner. Scully is a middle child; she has one older and one younger brother [Born Again], and an older sister, Melissa [One Breath]. Her father died early in 1994; they were apparently close at one time (she called him Ahab; he called her Starbuck), but her family disapproved of her joining the Bureau. [Beyond the Sea] She had a yearlong relationship with an instructor at the Academy, Jack Willis, with whom she shared the same birthdate (Feb. 23). [Lazarus] She is just as much a workaholic as Mulder, and is currently not seeing anyone [Jersey Devil]. Scully drinks her coffee with cream, no sugar [E.B.E.]. She was raised as a Catholic [Miracle Man]. She wears a necklace bearing a small cross, which was left behind in the car in which she was abducted [Ascension] and was returned to her by Mulder [One Breath]. /FBI Superiors/ Section Chief Scott Blevins (Charles Cioffi) is with the Violent Crimes Section of the Bureau. [Pilot] Blevins assigned Scully to be Mulder's partner, and her field reports are sent to his office. [early episodes] h)0*0*0*ԌSection Chief Joseph McGrath (Frederick Coffin) is with the Office of Professional Responsibility [Fallen Angel] and seemed determined to have Mulder fired and the X Files shut down. Assistant Director Walter S. Skinner (Mitch Pileggi) is one of the Bureau higher-ups reading Scully's reports. He warned both Scully and Mulder that their unorthodox methods of investiation may have dire consequences [Tooms], and followed through by shutting down the X Files division at an order from the highest levels of government [Erlenmeyer Flask]. He has since had second throughts and has reopened the X Files [Ascension], and overtly showed his support for Mulder and the X files [One Breath]. /Recurring Characters/ [Season 1] "Deep Throat" (Jerry Hardin) is a mysterious individual believed to be some sort of higher-up government official. Mulder contacted him via a blue light shining from his apartment window; DT called Mulder and signaled him with a series of clicks [E.B.E.]. The method of choosing a meeting place was not determined. He appears to have been exterminated in the episode "The Erlenmeyer Flask." Speculation on Deep Throat is contained in Internal Affairs X-File Inquiry #875110-6249 [aka the Deep Throat FAQ, posted by Special Agent Jeff Gostin]. [Season 1 and 2] "Cigarette Smoking Man" (William B. Davis) is another mysterious individual who, like Deep Throat, appears to be a higher-up government official with some power. Assistant Director Skinner seemed to be deferring to his opinion early in our notice of him [Tooms] but Skinner ordered him out of his office during a discussion with Mulder after the agent had abandoned his assignment to investigate possible alien contact in Puerto Rico [Little Green Men]. CSM also kept a silent watch on the proceedings in Blevins's and Skinner's offices and buried vital evidence in a secret Pentagon storage room [Pilot, Erlenmeyer Flask]. He also used Special Agent Alex Krycek to keep an eye on Mulder and any of Mulder's investigations [Sleepless, Duane Barry, Ascension]. Mulder pulled a gun on him and threatened him with death in his studio apartment (at 900 W. Georgia St.) [One Breath]. [Season 2] "Special Agent Alex Krycek" (Nicholas Lea) moved into the role of Mulder's partner with the unexplained murders of former Vietnam veterans [Sleepless]. We discovered, however, that Krycek had a hidden agenda, as a lackey for Cigarette Smoking Man: keep an eye on Mulder and keep him from finding out information that would bring certain covert activities to light [Sleepless, Ascension]. With the disappearance of Dana Scully and the reopening of the X Files, Krycek himself has disappeared [Ascension].h)0*0*0*Ԍ [Season 2] "Mr. X" (Steven Williams), an acquaintance of Deep Throat, is even more mysterious than his predecessor. Mr. X's information is even more reluctantly shared. Mulder at this point apparently cannot contact Mr. X, although he attempted to by taping an X to his front window and shining a light through it [One Breath]. /The Romance Aspect/ There will be *no romance* between Fox Mulder and Dana Scully. Everyone readily admits that there is some attraction, a "sexual tension," between the characters. However, neither series creator Chris Carter, nor actors David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, nor most X-Philes, want a full-blown romance to develop.Carter "firmly believes that a series can be 'ruined'if the characters cross the boundaries of sexual tension." [Starlog #201, April 1994] Anderson [Starlog Platinum #2] says, "I don't want that to happen, David doesn't want that to happen, [Chris Carter] I don't think wants that to happen. The show's not about intimacy between us; it would be a huge mistake to make it about that. Both of our characters are single-minded about our work and respectful enough not to complicate it in any way. We [eventually] warm up to each other, and there are times when there's more sexual tension than others, but it's not going to be a romantic relationship." Duchovny's viewpoint [Starlog #202, May 1994]: "Having a friendship and a professional working relationship with a woman is much more interesting....It's very easy to just jump into bed. That doesn't take much imagination." So: don't even think about it! /The Pregnancy/ Although actress Gillian Anderson was pregnant, her condition was not reflected in the show's scripts. Contrary to published rumors, the character of Dana Scully will *not* be pregnant -- by aliens, Elvis :-), or otherwise. Anderson appeared in the first six episodes of the season and was written purposely out of the seventh. She returned in the eighth episode, "One Breath.". The production company filmed "creatively" to disguise the pregnancy,. Anderson gave birth to a daughter, Piper, on Sept. 25.
