Season 6

6x04 Dreamland

Mulder and Scully are driving to Area 51. Right when they get there, lots of cars block their path. In one of the cars is Morris Fletcher. The men make Mulder and Scully get out of their car. Mulder tries to get the men to admit that they are hiding something. Even Scully mentions something about UFOs. Then a large spacecraft flies overhead. Scully looks on in amazement and Mulder takes her hand. As the ship passes by, there is a rippling effect. Suddenly Mulder is standing where Morris Fletcher was and he is where Mulder was. Fletcher looks like he was expecting it or just wasn't surprised at what happened. Mulder, however, is surprised. He doesn't let it known to the other men, though. Mulder explores area 51 and Fletcher's office. He finds out that Fletcher is married and has two children, Terrence(Terry) and Chris(short for Christina?). He goes 'home' and sees that Fletcher's wife is in bed. he decides to sleep on the couch and watch some porno. Meanwhile Scully is back at the FBI. Kersh asks them about what they did in Nevada. Fletcher(as Mulder) says something in a suck-up/teacher's pet kinda way, something that Mulder would never do. Scully is a little surprised and tells him that was a good save. He says that they should always follow the book, another thing Mulder never does. The real Mulder awakes to a woman pushing down the foot stool part of the recliner. She says(and I'm not quoting),"Is our marriage so bad that you can't even sleep in the same bed as me?!" She looks at what Mulder has been watching, "What if Terry or Chris walked out here and saw there father watching this stuff!" Mulder is in shock and doesn't know what to say. He apologizes and then goes to work. There, he learns about the spacecraft. He sees a lizard has been mutated by the ship. Its head is stuck in a rock. He asks,"So, how do you get the head out of the rock? How do you reverse it?" A man shrugs, "Who says we can?" Later, Mulder with Fletcher's friends goes to a gas station and buys sunflower seeds. He gets $0.11 in change but tells the man to keep it. All of a sudden, there is a strange sound and the ship passes overhead. After its gone, Mulder turns and sees the man is in the floor. Fletcher's friends run in and, when seeing the man, they sake their heads. they usher Mulder out and, even though he protests saying they have to help the man, the other men there burn the building. Mulder contacts Scully and tries to tell her what happened. She just thinks it's one of Mulder's sources. I don't remember why but Scully goes back to Nevada. Kersh calls her and tells her that if she wants to come back, she better do what he says. Scully contacts Mulder, thinking its Fletcher. He takes a devise as proof to her to a store. He was setup and is arrested. When Fletcher comes in, Mulder screams at him. He yells toward Scully as he's being dragged away, "Is this me, Scully? Would I do this?" Something makes Scully sees something she hadn't seen before. Episode Name Meaning: Nickname for Area 51, a military base thought for years to hold alien secrets Aired: 11/29/98

6x05 Dreamland II

Mulder, still in Fletcher's body is put in a kind of prison. There is an old Indian woman who was put in beside him. She an a military pilot switched bodies. Mulder is taken to see the man-in-charge(name forgotten) who asks why Mulder didn't tell them that the flight data recorder(the devise)was a fake. Mulder, confused, plays along, saying he didn't think he could trust them. Back in D.C., Scully is put on suspension for two weeks. Fletcher, still as Mulder, offers dinner at 'his' apartment. Scully accepts and arrives at a very un-Mulder-like apartment. Fletcher even cleaned out a room for a bedroom. He bought a waterbed and asks Scully to try it out. They're on the bed drinking champagne or wine when Scully asks, "You know what would be fun?" and pulls out her handcuffs(hmmm.....this doesn't sound too good!) Fletcher handcuffs himself to the bad and turns to see Scully pointing a gun in his face. "Baby?", he says. "Baby me again and you'll be peeing through a cathrater(spelling?)." She tells him he's not Mulder and asks how to change them back. Fletcher admits they switched but says he doesn't know how to change back and if he did he wouldn't. The phone rings and it is the man Mulder was going to meet. Back in Rachel, Nevada, Mulder tells Fletcher's wife, Joann, that he's not her husband and there are men outside watching him. After she refuses to believe him, Mulder says they should go out. They go to the same bar, Fletcher and Scully go to. The man-in-charge is the one who contacted Mulder. He has the real flight data recorder. Fletcher sees Joann but then sees his 'friends'. He goes to the bathroom. Mulder went outside after seeing Fletcher's friends and talks to Scully. He goes back in to the bar, into the bathroom, where he sees Fletcher. The older man, the one-in-charge, also goes to the bathroom, carring the paper bag containing the flight data recorder. The three make a plan to get the data recorder out. The man-in-charge walks back out of the bathroom and tells Fletcher's friends that Fletcher is under suspension. They walk out and see Mulder carring a paper bag. His 'friends' ask him what's in the bag. He says beer and it really is beer. Fletcher has the real one. Scully gets it looked at by The LoneGunMen. Mulder meets Scully the next night and she tells him that there's no reverse. Mulder sadly gives her some sunflower seeds. Fletcher tries to reassure Scully that she'll get to like him whil she's driving back to D.C. She reminds him she has a gun. All of a sudden, Scully stops. She sees the store that had been burned down(forgot to mention that Scully not only saw the store burned down, she picked up the dime and penny Mulder left that had been molded together) back again. The man that had died is once again alive. At the same time, three teens reach a white mailbox near Area 51. Two are kissing when the ripple effect happens again. The two that were kissing are stuck to each other. The boy runs for help and runs into Fletcher's friend. He goes and sees and the teens are fine. Mulder returns 'home' and sees 'his' stuff thrown all over the front porch. SWcully and Fletcher arrive. Joann calls Scully a home-wrecker. While Mulder and Scully talk, Fletcher is able to convince Joann that he is her husband. Suddenly, Fletcher's friend arrives telling them he can swith them back by putting them in the exact place it happened. When they get there, Mulder explains that it will be like the last couple days never happened. Fletcher says, "Well, in that case," he turns to Scully, "It's been nice working with you Dana." He slaps her butt! The ripple effect happens again and it's like the beginning. Mulder, himself again, and Scully leave. Back in D.C., Scully sits in her office and pulls the combined dime-and-penny coin from her pocket, while Mulder steps into his apartment and checks the number on the door.
