   "So, what do you want for Christmas this year,   
   Scully?"   
      
   "I don't know. I haven't really thought about it."   
      
   "Well, I have, and I'm thinkin' big screen TV."   
      
   "You're hardly even at your apartment anymore,   
   Mulder. Why do you need such a large television?"   
      
   "Okay then, how about a big screen TV for *your*   
   place?"   
      
   "My place? Now why would I need something like   
   that?"   
      
   "Because I'm there."   
      
   "Oh, I see."   
      
   "So, what do you think, Scully? Should we take   
   a technological leap and buy one of those new   
   flat panel TV's? A 37-inch one would look great   
   over there in front of that wall."   
      
   "You've got to be kidding. Those things can easily   
   run a few thousand dollars."   
      
   "I know they're expensive, but we can afford it,   
   and besides, I think we deserve to treat ourselves   
   this year."   
      
   "We have been working pretty hard lately."   
      
   "And just think how clear 'The Lazarus Bowl' would   
   look on the big screen, especially if it's high   
   definition TV."   
      
   "Mulder..."   
      
   "No, really, it'd be great."   
      
   "I still can't believe you bought that on DVD, or   
   even found a place that sold it, for that matter."   
      
   "Amazon.com, Scully. It has it all...unless of   
   course, you get it on eBay."   
      
   "Since when did you become such an expert online   
   shopper?"   
      
   "I've always been an expert. I just haven't   
   mentioned it to you before."   
      
   "So, what other secrets have you been keeping   
   from me, Mulder?"   
      
   "Umm...actually I already have your Christmas   
   present."   
      
   "You went through this whole spiel about big   
   screen TV's, and you already have my gift?"   
      
   "Yes."   
      
   "Well, I already have yours too."   
      
   "Now who's keeping secrets?"   
      
   "I'm not keeping secrets. I'm keeping you guessing."   
      
   "Ooo...you're good."   
      
   "I don't have to be."   
      
   "That's even better. What do you say we go hang up   
   some mistletoe and make out for awhile?"   
      
   "Who says we need mistletoe?"   
      
   "I like the way you think, Scully."   
      
   "I know."
