Chinga

"I want to play."

"Let's have fun."



Scully w/Doll
On Sunday, February 8, 1998 the episode, "Chinga", aired. This episode is the tenth episode of the fifth season.

"Chinga" is a frightening episode beautifully written by Stephen King, where a talking doll forces people to harm themselves. This episode really brings out and stresses the playfullness between Agents Scully and Mulder which has always been evident throughout the past five years. It literally shows that they cannot live without each other's presence. The two agents truely love each other. What a new revival on the Hokey Pokey! "I'm on vacation."

Below, are a few quotes from the episode and the ratings submitted by XFEOS members. They are followed with the comments and opinions on "Chinga".


Mulder: "You didn't rent a convertable, did you?"
Scully: "Why?"
Mulder: "Are you aware of the statistics of decapitation?"

Scully

Scully: "No, I don't think it's witchcraft, Mulder, or sorcery. I've had a look around and I don't see any evidence of anything that warrants that kind of suspicion."
Mulder: "Well, maybe you don't know you're looking for?"
Scully: "Like evidence of conjury, or the black arts, or shamanism, divination, wicca, or any kind of pagan or neo-pagan practice. Charms, cards, familiars, bloodstones, or hex signs, or any of the ritual tableaux associated with the occult, santeria, voudoun, macumba, or any high or low magic?"
Mulder: "Scully?"
Scully: "Yes?"
Mulder: "Marry me."
Scully: "I was hoping for something a little more helpful."

Scully referring to lobster: "Oh my god! That looks like something out of Jules Verne. We're supposed to eat that?"

Scully to old sailor: "But you saw something in that grocery store, that little girl and her dolly."

Scully answers her phone.
Mulder: "Hey. I thought you weren't answering your cell phone."
Scully: "Then why'd you call?"
Mulder: "I, uh, I had a new thought about this case you're working on. There's a viral infection that's spread by simple touch..."
Scully: "Mulder, are there any references in occult literature to objects that have the power to direct human behavior?"
Mulder: "What types of objects?"
Scully: "Um, like a doll, for instance."
Mulder: "You mean, like Chuckie?"
Scully: "Yeah. Kinda like that."
Mulder w/Pencils
Mulder: "Yeah, the talking doll myth is well established in literature, especially in New England. The fetish or juju is belived to pass on magical powers, onto it's possessor. Some of the early witches were condemned for little more than proclaiming that these objects existed. The supposed witch having premonitory visions and things. Why do you ask?"
Scully: "I was just curious."
Mulder: "You didn't find a talking doll, did you, Scully?"
Scully: "No, no. Of course not."
Mulder: "I would suggest that you check the back of the doll for a plastic ring with a string on it. That would be my first..." There is a click as Scully hangs up. "Hello?"

Scully: "What about you? Did you get anything done while I was gone?"
Mulder: "Oh god. I mean it's amazing what I can accomplish without incessant meddling or questioning into everything I do." Pencils start to fall from the ceiling and Scully looks at them curiously. "There's got to be an explaination.
Scully: "Oh, I don't know. I think some things are better left unexplained."
