ANGLE - MULDER
a profile show of him. He is a little bit paranoid as he flips on the light. He looks over to see a cleen apartement (very unlike his own). Mulder starst to take pictures down from the wall, the audience should be wondering what the heck it Mulder up to now?

Mulder, starring at the bare wall, holding a sledge hammer. Suddenly, he grabs it with both hands and attacks the wall, screaming, hitting the wall over and over again, causing a lot of damage.
TIME CUT TO:
INT. MULDER'S APT
ANGLE - MULDER'S PHONE
O.S. we hear a crash of plaster... the phone rings.
NEW ANGLE - THE HOLE IN MULDER'S WALL
Mulder's head suddenly pops up... very alert, and he has a goofy expression on his face and his hair is a mess... with bits of plaster in it. We hear from the other side of the wall (where Mulder is) the hammer falls to the ground with a CLANK. Mulder suddenly stars to CRAWL through the hole in the wall.
Mulder walks over to the phone and answers it.
MULDER
No, I'm just banging
something around.
FROHIKE
(filitered,covering mouthpiece
speaking to Langly & Byers)
He's banging someone.
LANGLY

MULDER

"who"? I'm banging
the wall.
FROHIKE

nice restaurant.
INT. MEAN'S RESTAURANT - EVENING
ANGLE - MULDER
sitting at a table, dressed nicely, playing with his silverware, his hari still has shavings of plaster in it, he hasn't noticed. He looks up to see:
MULDR'S POV
A young women, wearing heels she obviously can't walk in, she's very wobbly. She is wearing av ery skimpy black dress. Her hair is up in a very high ponytail and frizzed out, brown hair. She's got a tone of make up gooped on, she looks like a prostitute. As she approaches... Mulder's poor nose cringes, he smells magazines... Oh my God, he comes to the realization it is the woman from the ballet, but not the Arabian Dancer it's... it can't be... MAGAZINE GIRL # 2! Doo! Doo! She speaks... oh no...
MULDER
(in shock, he's scared)
Yes, and you are?
Now this is as long as Mulder can pay attention to her, from now on we hear MAGAZINE GIRL # 2 from Mulder's ears.
He has no idea what she's talking about.
MULDER
(confused)
Yes.
MAG GIRL # 2
(looks at him seductivly)
Ah, kwah mah dah...
MULDER
(fearful)
No...
(he shakes his head)
MAG GIRL # 2

Mulder and the Gunmen, they are finishing up taking down the wall between Mulder and Krycek's apartments.
Off the Gunmen's dumbfounded looks we
FADE OUT
TIME CUT TO:
4 AM
It's quiet, The Lone Gunmen have left. Mulder is sleeping, somewhere... we don't know where yet... CAMERA PANS around the apartment that Mulder made. It looks clean enough... descent. Mulder has rearranged all of the furniture, a pile of pictures (Krycek's) are piled up on a desk, the fish are on the kitchen table. As the camera reaches Krycek's door, it OPENS. Light from the hallway CREEPS in ...
ANGLE - KRYCEK
standing in the doorway... he's beat. It was a long drive back from Roswell. He steps in and slams the door. He's unaware of Mulder's work. He drops all his bags right where he stands. He starts walking toward his bedroom, drops his coat off on the way, leaving it on the floor. As he walks he steps on his shoes to take them off, and YAWNS. We follow him into the room, he takes off his shir, we see a nice shot of his bare back. He walks into the bathroom, we hear peeing, when he emerges, he's wearing dark red silk boxers, he starts to sprint, and leaps high into the air... to waht he thinks is his bed.
We hear him CRASH TO THE FLOOR with a big BANG!
Mulder... sleepily emerges from Krycek's bedroom.
MULDER
What wall?
KRYCEK
(angry)
The wall that's suppose
to be here!
MULDER
(innocently)
I remodeled.
KRYCEK
And how much will
this cost me?
MULDER
Nothing. (beat)
I did this myself.
KRYCEK
Where's my bed?
MULDER
In our bedroom.
MULDER
(walking into Krycek's room)
It's in here.
Krycek glares at him, picking up his phone and calls someone... he takes his gun from out of his desk and takes aim at Mulder.
Remember... it's 4am... We hear Marita in the background.
KRYCEK
Scully, I need to
speak to Marita, before I kill
Mulder!
SCULLY
Oh, Alex. Hi. Here's
Marita.
ANGLE - SCULLY
sitting on the couch all the lights are out, we hear a "horror" movie in the b.g. She hands the phone to Marita, who is still laughing at the movie.
MARITA
(laughing)
Hey hon'! Welcome back!
KRYCEK
(filtered)
I need somewhere to
stay before I kill Mulder.
MARITA
What'd he do
this time?
on the phone, turns to glare at Mulder, who is standing there like a scared little boy.
ANGLE - MARITA
Sitting there listening.
biting her hand trying not to laugh out loud, if it's not obvious by now, she and Marita are on caffine. Scully tries not to laugh.
SCULLY
(can't contain herself
anymore)
Sure!
KRYCEK
(filtered)
Wasn't I talking to
Marita?
MARITA
I'm still here.
CUT TO:
TIME LAPES TO 5:30 AM
Krycek arrives at Marita, Scully, and Skinner's apartment. He KNOCKS on their door. Marita answers and lets him in. Krycek HUGS her... finally normal people. The door shuts. From behind the door, we hear more sounds of the "horror" movei, a girl from the tv SCREAMS, Marita and Scully BURST OUT LAUGHING in hyperness...
