"This book contains the exact details of our last case!"
"Wait a minute," Betty finally cuts in, stopping anything that either Stacy or Dana Scully would have said, "This is positively ridiculous! I mean, I figure that this all in fun, but I figure that the Candid Camera bit has about played itself out. So I've just got to say Bravo, well done."
Stacy, seeing the confused look on both Scully's and Mulder's faces, makes a laughing noise and waves her hand at the book that's in Mulder's hand.
"That's just a novelization of the movie," she says chuckling, "Don't tell me that you actually think that you really are FBI agents and all that?" Scully is about to say something when she hears screams and shouts of shock come from outside make this already confusing situation even worse.
They all rush outside and see a small crowd of people (who'd been on their rushed way to a more secure location just in case that large dragon in the sky decides to return) who are point up....at the Sun. That is, what should be that familiar yellow white star that has been the Earth's companion ever since the beginning of the Solar System. But instead of that bright, familiar star.....
"That's....a blue giant I think," Dana Scully says in a small, abstracted voice.
Betty, who'd had to catch her balance on the truck she'd driven over her (that in other universes had been wrecked in a flipover), just nods silently in agreement, shellshocked.
To say that everyone is confused and frightened (stuff like that just doesn't HAPPEN) is an understatement. There is even more to it, however.
Trying to approach a deputy who's trying very hard to keep order in an already explosive situation, the put upon woman tells Scully in no uncertain terms to buzz off.
"My God!" the woman deputy cries in exasperation, "After all that's happened here, we have you Hollywood jerks trying to pull a publicity stunt, NOW?!"
