Summary: Investigating X-files is hazardous work, as Dana Scully can
attest. She has lost her sister, three months of her life, and finally
her dog. But her partner has an idea to fix the last one...

Disclaimer: The X-files and its characters are the property of Chris
Carter and 1013 Productions. No infringement of copyright is intended.

The following skit is suitable for use at a fan convention, and may be
used freely for that purpose as long as I am credited with writing it.
(The summary can be read by the MC as an intro over the theme music.)

                                *  *  *

(SCULLY enters from the wings, holding a long leash [preferably the
retractable kind used in "Big Blue"] attached to SOMETHING offstage.
MULDER approaches from the other side of the stage.)

MULDER: Hey, partner! How's the new pet coming along?

SCULLY: Really, Mulder! When I asked you to replace Queequeg, this
        WASN'T what I had in mind!

MULDER: You have to admit, he's kind of cute.

SCULLY: He's ENORMOUS, and he's eating me out of house an home!

MULDER: But he's so cuddly!

SCULLY: (wryly) Yeah, right. He keeps trying to climb into my lap, and
        he slobbers all over me.

MULDER: It's just his way of showing affection. Just show him who's
        boss, and I'm sure he'll behave.

SCULLY: Well... <pauses, considering>

MULDER: Anyway, I can't take him back, so I guess you're stuck with him
        for the time being.

SCULLY: <sigh> I guess I can find SOME use for him. <looks offstage and
        tugs leash> Heel, Frohike!

FROHIKE <crawling on stage on all fours (wearing a collar [spiked?], and
        panting like a dog) goes over to SCULLY.>

MULDER: At least he's housebroken. <pause> I think.

AUDIENCE <wild applause (optional)>
