Mulder's Come-On Lines to Scully
Special thanks to Lance Martin for the category suggestion
E.B.E. - "I think it's remotely plausible that someone might think you’re hot." - to Scully, referring to the Lone Gunmen's earlier comments.
Tooms - "If there’s an ice tea in that bag, could be love." - in response to Scully's "I wouldn’t put myself on the line for anybody but you."
War of the Coprophages - "Scully... what are you wearing?" - on the phone , after Scully's diatribe on the probability of alien intelligent life.
Piper Maru - "I just got very turned on" - after Scully rattles off the make of the downed plane.
Quagmire - "Scully, are you coming on to me?" - on the rock, after Scully compares him to Ahab.
Home - (suggestively) "Do we?" - in response to Scully's assertion that we all have an instinct to propagate.
Small Potatoes - "Birds do it, bees do it, even educated MD's do it" - after discovering that all of the babies had the same father.
Small Potatoes - "Hey Scully, should we be picking out china patterns or what?" - after Scully correctly guesses Mulder's theory.
Schizogeny - "Hey, Scully, is this demonstration of boyish agility turning you on at all?" - while climbing a tree.
Chinga - "Marry Me" - on the phone after Scully rattles off signs of witchcraft/magic.
Arcadia - "Let's get it on, honey" - undercover as a married couple
Arcadia - "You want to make that honeymoon video now?" - undercover as a married couple, as Scully videotapes the house's interior
Arcadia - "Come on, Laura, you know... we're married now" - undercover as a married couple, as he reclines on the bed
Laura's note -- I refuse to include Mulder's "I love you" in "Triangle" on this list -- as I think it was heartfelt and not a come-on line; and I waver on the "iced tea" comment from "Tooms". For "Triangle" and other "romantic" moments, check out that list on the Hugs & Kisses list on the Lists & Statistics page.
