What Did Scully Whisper to Mulder on The X-Files?
The X-Files just added another mystery to the pile. In Nothing Lasts Forever, the penultimate episode of The X-Files season 11, Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) had a deeply personal conversation about where they stand, mainly in each others lives.
At one point Scully leans in and whispers in Mulders ear. I dont know if any God is listening, but I am standing right here, Mulder told Scully. And I am listening. Right beside you, all ears.
Thats my choice. Then she whispered in his ear, pulled away and said, Thats not my four-year-old self looking for a miracle, she said. Thats my leap of faith forward. And Id like to do it together. What did Scully whisper?.
Thats between Mulder and Scully, episode writer Karen Nielsen told The Hollywood Reporter.
Having those private moments, its important for any couple. Fox is calling the Wednesday, March 21 episode the season finale, but Anderson has made it clear she wont be back.
Series creator Chris Carter has said he wouldnt continue the show without her, then hedged on those statements. Whatever happens, The X-Files as fans know it currently likely wont be back anytime soon.
And that means theres no chance of finding out what Scully whispered…even if she comes back to the show. Itll always be between Mulder and Scully, Nielsen said. Its not for anyone else.
That was their moment. Take a peak at The X-Files season finale trailer above. When E! News visited the set of The X-Files in November 2017 we asked the dynamic duo if this would be a satisfying ending.
Well, weve been asked that every year for the past 20 years as well, Duchovny said. Um, I havent read number 10, but Im going to say yes, Anderson said. And what would be their ideal ending?.
I havent thought about it. But it will involve the blobfish, Anderson joked about a prop from episode seven. There may be three of us. Scandalous, Duchovny said. The X-Files season finale airs Wednesday, March 21 at 8 p.m.
