Christmas Question 5
"X-Files" - "How the Ghosts Stole Christmas" I - Upstairs in the house, a door creaked open to reveal a room with lights on. Mulder challenged Scully to say she wasn't afraid and she conceded, "All right. I'm afraid. But it's ________ fear."
The correct answer is 'an irrational'
Scully had just finished a long rant in which she rationalized to Mulder all the reasons why they shouldn't be afraid: "These are tricks that the mind plays. They are ingrained clichés from a thousand different horror films. When we hear a sound, we get a chill. We see a shadow and we allow ourselves to imagine something that an otherwise rational person would discount out of hand. The whole... Mulder...? The whole idea of a benevolent entity fits perfectly with what I'm saying. That a spirit would materialize or return for no other purpose than to show itself is silly and ridiculous. I mean, what it really shows is how silly and ridiculous we have become in believing such things. I mean, that- that we can ignore all natural laws about the corporeal body- that- that we witness these spirits clad in their own shabby outfits with the same old haircuts and hairstyles never aging, never- Never in search of more comfortable surroundings. It actually ends up saying more about the living than it does about the dead. I mean, Mulder, it doesn't take an advanced degree in psychology to understand the unconscious yearnings that these imaginings satisfy. You know, the longing for immortality, the hope that there is something beyond this mortal coil, that we might never be long without our loved ones. I mean, these are powerful, powerful desires. I mean, they're the very essence of what make us human. The very essence of Christmas, actually." When it came down to it, though, even Scully could get spooked.
