Here she comes. Let's go. Come on, man. Come on.
Shaineh Berkowitz
You gotta be kiddin'.
Izzy Berkowitz
What?
Shaineh Berkowitz
Don't "what" me, Izzy, or you ain't goin' to no comic book convention.
Izzy Berkowitz
I'm 18. I can go anywhere I want.
Shaineh Berkowitz
Yeah, but where you gonna live when you get back?
Izzy Berkowitz
Mom, we gotta get going.

You drive careful, booger. He's the only son I've got.

Okay, miss b.
Jerry Springer
[ TV: jerry Springer ] I'm about to introduce you to a woman... Who three years ago was delivered the surprise of her life. After nine months of what seemed like a normal pregnancy, doctors delivered to delores a very special child. A mother of two beautiful children, delores held in her arms a boy with fur like a dog... And a hairline like Eddie munster. She's here with us today with her real-live, but sleeping wolf baby. Why not just give him a razor and some shaving cream? He's gonna be shaving in a couple of years anyway.
Mother
Actually, he seems to be quite allergic to shaving cream.
Jerry Springer
[ Springer ] so they don't tease him?
Mother
No, he's quite popular.
Jerry Springer
Is dandruff a problem?
Mother
No, I wash his hair twice a day, and brush a hundred strokes at night.
Shaineh Berkowitz
I can't believe this.
Jerry Springer (television)
[ Springer ] good for you.
Jerry Springer
I think the question the audience really wants answered is--

Scene 02
Dana Scully
"dear special agent Mulder, I'm writing to you for help. "several years ago, I had an experience I could not explain. "I was lying in my bed when I felt a presence in the room. "though I was awake, I felt something had taken control over my body. "I don't remember much else, but I woke up three days later pregnant with my son, Izzy. "that was 18 years ago, but now it happened again. "I was in bed and could swear I heard Cher singing, "the one who was married to sonny. "then the room got all smoky... "and I saw some kind of monster. "he had a really gross face with lumps all over his head. "I was too scared to scream. "then I got all groggy and conked out for three days. "guess what happened when I woke up? "I got your name off the TV. "some lady on the jerry Springer show, who had a werewolf baby, "said you came to her house. "well, I got her story beat by a mile. So maybe you'll want to come see me too. Sincerely, Shaineh Berkowitz."
Fox Mulder
Scully, do you think it's too soon to get my own 1-900 number?
Scene 03
Scene 03
Shaineh Berkowitz
So, did you actually see that werewolf baby or was that just a story?
Fox Mulder
No, it had something called hypertrichosis lanuginosa. It's a rare hereditary condition most commonly found in some south American families.
Shaineh Berkowitz
Uh-huh. But he was all hairy and stuff?
Dana Scully
Uh, mrs. Berkowitz, you said that you also had a son?
Shaineh Berkowitz
Mm-hmm. Izzy. That's him there.
Dana Scully
And Izzy is the product... Of your union with some kind of intruder?
Shaineh Berkowitz
I don't know about no union, but I woke up in a condition.
Dana Scully
Did you report this to the police?
Shaineh Berkowitz
Of course I did.
Dana Scully
Was there an investigation?
Shaineh Berkowitz
Not really. Nobody here ever locks their doors. And it took me a month or two to figure out that I was pregnant.
Dana Scully
Now you're pregnant again?
Shaineh Berkowitz
Uh-huh. But as I told agent Mulder on the phone, that's what takes the cake.
Fox Mulder
Mrs. Berkowitz had a tubal ligation two years ago.
Shaineh Berkowitz
You can't plant a seed in a barren field. They were cooking something on the range. Took me two days of scrubbing to clean the skillet. I don't know how many of them there were. I only saw the one, but they ate almost a whole damn jar of peanut butter.
Dana Scully
You said you were gone for three days, but nobody missed you.
Shaineh Berkowitz
I know what you're thinkin'.
Dana Scully
Do you drink, mrs. Berkowitz?
Shaineh Berkowitz
No, but I'm not so sure my intruders, as you call them, didn't have a few. Somebody set a tumbler here and didn't use no coaster.
Fox Mulder
Hmm.
Shaineh Berkowitz
That's a family heirloom too.
Dana Scully
Is there no chance that your son could have put it there?
Shaineh Berkowitz
Izzy's got more brains than that. Not much more, but he values his life. That pigsty there is his room. You know what this thing is, don't you, agent Mulder?
Fox Mulder
Why do you say that?
Shaineh Berkowitz
'cause you're all quiet and stuff. And you know something you're not saying about alien abductions. They said on jerry Springer you're like an expert.
Fox Mulder
I don't think this has anything to do with alien abductions. I don't even know if I believe in that anymore.
Shaineh Berkowitz
Oh, come on. Really?
Dana Scully
Mrs. Berkowitz? You gave a description of the intruder. You said he had a gross face and lumps on his head?
Shaineh Berkowitz
And two mouths. I don't know if I mentioned that.
Dana Scully
Funny. Sounds just like this.
Shaineh Berkowitz
Oh, that. That's "the great Mutato." that's the comic book character my kid, Izzy, created.
[ door opening ]
Izzy Berkowitz
What's going on?
Shaineh Berkowitz
These are agents Mulder and Scully from the FBI
Izzy Berkowitz
The federal Bureau of investigation?
Dana Scully
We were wondering... How this suspect in your mother's case looks exactly like this?
Fox Mulder
The great Mutato.
Izzy Berkowitz
Because I've seen him too.
Dana Scully
You've seen the great Mutato?
Izzy Berkowitz
Yeah. A lot of people around here have.
Dana Scully
Has it crossed neither of your minds what you say you saw that night... Fits perfectly with this creature that your son created?
Shaineh Berkowitz
Yeah, but... That don't mean it didn't happen.
Scene 04
Scene 04
Izzy Berkowitz
Don't ask me why, but it works.
Dana Scully
Peanut butter sandwiches?
Fox Mulder
You think bologna would be more effective?
Dana Scully
Why are you humoring them, Mulder?
Fox Mulder
I'm not humoring them. This is a very serious crime.
Dana Scully
So is perjury. So is calling out FBI agents under false pretenses.
Fox Mulder
For the purpose of what?
Dana Scully
Isn't it obvious? I think what we're seeing here is an example... Of a culture for whom daytime talk shows and tabloid headlines... Have become a reality against which they measure their lives. A culture so obsessed by the media and a chance for self-dramatization... That they'll do anything to gain a spotlight.
Fox Mulder
I am alarmed that you would reduce these people to a cultural stereotype. Not everybody's dream is to get on jerry Springer.
Dana Scully
Psychologists often speak of the denial... Of an unthinkable evil or a misplacement of shared fears, anxieties taking the form of a hideous monster... For whom the most horrific human attributes can be ascribed. What we can't possibly imagine ourselves capable of... We can blame on the ogre, on the hunchback, on the lowly half-breed.
[ coughs ]
Dana Scully
Common sense alone will tell you that these legends, these unverified rumors, are ridiculous.
Fox Mulder
But, nonetheless, unverifiable, and, therefore, true in the sense that they're believed to be true.
Dana Scully
Is there anything that you don't believe in, Mulder?
[ moaning ]
Fox Mulder
Shh.
[ moaning ]
Dana Scully
What's that sound?
[ moaning continues ]
Izzy Berkowitz
It's the great Mutato. [ thunderclap ]
Dana Scully
Where'd it go?
Fox Mulder
I don't know. I lost it.
[ thunder rumbling ]
Fox Mulder
There! Up there!
Mr. Polidori
Turn that damn thing off! You're on my property!
Fox Mulder
We're with the FBI
Mr. Polidori
They're not!
Izzy Berkowitz
We were--
Dana Scully
We were chasing what they told us was a monster.
Mr. Polidori
Monster? What'd I tell you boys? There ain't no monster. I'll show you the monster you're looking for.
Scene 05
Scene 05
Dr. Polidori
Who sent you here?
Fox Mulder
Your father.
Dr. Polidori
My father is a simpleton farmer. He understands nothing of my scientific achievements.
Dana Scully
What achievements are those?
Dr. Polidori
What makes you thing you'd understand them any better?
Dana Scully
Well, I'm a scientist, for one.
Dr. Polidori
Then you probably know that once in a generation, perhaps once in a lifetime, a truth is uncovered... Which thrusts mankind into a shocking new consciousness, turning accepted notions of our very existence on their head. Consider relativity, double helix. And now the homeotic hox gene, for which I will undoubtedly... Have my place among the columbuses of science as a visionary leader of men. Yes?
Geek Lab Boy
What do you want me to do with these, dr. Pollidori? Never mind.
Fox Mulder
What is the homeotic hox gene?
Dr. Polidori
She's a scientist. Ask her.
Dana Scully
I, uh, I believe that it has something to do with, um... Growth and development.
Dr. Polidori
If you two will excuse me, I really don't have time for this. I have to travel tonight to the university of egostat... To deliver an international address.
Dana Scully
Sir, unless you want your scientific achievements... To end up as a footnote on the jerry Springer show, I suggest you make the time.
[ thunder rumbling ]
Dr. Polidori
Jerry Springer show? Witness the morphogenesis of drosophila. The fruit fly. [ thunderclap ] what you're watching has been going on for a millennia, since the cambrian period some 580 million short years ago... When drosophila was first born. Notice the elegant symmetry with which the pupae grows... Into a series of beautiful segments.
[ thunderclap ]
Dr. Polidori
What we have found-- what I have found... Is that these segments represent a linear model... For the genetic development of our friend the fly. Each gene is responsible... For the development of its corresponding segment. The legs, the mouth, the body, posterior and anterior. But which I, through my genius, can alter into a creation of my own. Behold... Proboscopedia.
Fox Mulder
This fly has legs--
Dana Scully
Growing out of his mouth.
Fox Mulder
Why would you do that?
Dr. Polidori
Because I can. [ thunderclap ]
Fox Mulder
Could that be done in humans?
Dr. Polidori
That would go against every scientific convention.
Fox Mulder
But could it be done?
Dr. Polidori
Theoretically.
[ thunderclap ]
Fox Mulder
Good night, dr. Frankenstein.
Dana Scully
Despite what you might think, Mulder, mutations like these are virtually impossible on humans.
Fox Mulder
That's not what I just heard.
Dana Scully
Even if they could, no scientist would even dare... To perform those kinds of experiments on a human.
Fox Mulder
Then why do them at all?
Dana Scully
To unlock the mysteries of genetics. To understand how it is that, even though we share the same genes, we develop arms instead of wings; we become humans instead of flies or monsters.
Fox Mulder
But, given the power, who could resist... The temptation to create life in his own image?
Dana Scully
We already have that ability. It's called procreation. And first thing tomorrow morning, I'm gonna verify the pregnancy of Shaineh Berkowitz.

When are you coming home again?
Dr. Polidori
Huh?
Elizabeth Polidori
When are you coming home again?
Dr. Polidori
What?
Elizabeth Polidori
We were gonna have that talk.
Dr. Polidori
Soon, soon. We'll have our talk soon.
Elizabeth Polidori
That's what you always say.
Dr. Polidori
Elizabeth, you know how I feel about children. They're mewling little monsters.
Elizabeth Polidori
But I want children.
Dr. Polidori
What happened to our dream... About getting out of this place, getting away from this hick town?
Elizabeth Polidori
I think that's your dream. Elizabeth,
Dr. Polidori
What do you want, a baby or a nobel prize? See you on thursday.

Izzy Berkowitz, get your butt front and center!
Izzy Berkowitz
What did I do?
Shaineh Berkowitz
All I can say is, I hope the answer to that question is "nothing."
Dana Scully
We have reason to believe that you or one of your friends... Recorded our conversation last night... And gave it to a newspaper reporter.
Izzy Berkowitz
Me?
Dana Scully
In order to promote your comic book monster that you created.
Fox Mulder
Do you own a tape recorder, Izzy?
Izzy Berkowitz
Um--
Shaineh Berkowitz
Christmas, 1993!

Dana Scully
Where are we going now?
Fox Mulder
Messenger this to the Bureau. I want to filter the tracks and separate out the voice, and then I want to see the professor.
Dana Scully
This is just a dopey hoax.
Fox Mulder
Something recorded its voice on this.
Dana Scully
Do you think dr. Pollidori had something to do with it?
Fox Mulder
When victor frankenstein asks himself, "whence did the principal of life proceed," and then, as the gratifying summit to his toils, creates a hideous phantasm of a man, he prefigures the postmodern prometheus, the genetic engineer whose power to reanimate matter, genes into life-- us-- is only as limited as his imagination is.
Dana Scully
I'm alarmed that you would reduce this man... To a literary stereotype, a "mad scientist."
Fox Mulder
Who else would go to such trouble to impregnate Shaineh Berkowitz?
[ car engine starts ]
Scene 11
Scene 11
Dana Scully
I'll have to admit, Mulder, everything looks in order. Mrs. Berkowitz had a tubal ligation in 1993... And two months ago, she had two pregnancy tests, both with positive results. What are you doing?
Fox Mulder
Mrs. Berkowitz said in her letter that... When she saw her intruder, there was a gaseous white cloud. Then when she woke up three days later, nobody knew that she'd been gone.

I'm accusing... That your wife may have been impregnated.
Dr. Polidori
Impregnated? By whom?
Fox Mulder
Oh, I think you know.
Dana Scully
Sir, with all due respect, I think this is all part of a hoax. A hoax?
Dr. Polidori
A hoax?
Dana Scully
A shameless publicity stunt.

That these people can be reduced to cultural stereotypes?

Shaineh Berkowitz
Don't even talk that way to me!
Dana Scully
I may have found something that says otherwise. The residue on the frying pan was an agricultural product... Used to anesthetize herds of animals.
Fox Mulder
Used by who?

Farmers, who have to register... With the f.d.a. To have it in their possession.

Elizabeth Polidori
That's him.
Shaineh Berkowitz
Yuck.
Dr. Polidori
That repulsive physiognomy is the vilest perversion of science.
Fox Mulder
Created by whom?
Dr. Polidori
A pale student of my most hallowed arts... Whose life was taken by that which he gave life; by his own horrible creation; by that monstrosity that you see before you.
Shaineh Berkowitz
Who's he talkin' about?
Dr. Polidori
My father.
[ gasps ]
The Great Mutato
No.
Shaineh Berkowitz
He can talk.
Dr. Polidori
Your ears deceive you. It's a trick! [ angry murmuring ]
The Great Mutato
I'm sorry, my voice is damaged by the gaseous chemicals, but I would like to explain myself. Despite my appearance, which you see is quite horrible to the human senses, I have never acted to harm another soul.
Dr. Polidori
These are fiendish lies!
Fox Mulder
Quiet.
The Great Mutato
Twenty-five years ago, my father, having only one son-- a spiteful, hateful man of science... Incapable of the deeper sentiments-- he came to realize that this son, had been conducting secret experiments, of which I was the most unfortunate product.
[ crowd gasps ]
The Great Mutato
A simple man, he rescued me and loved me... In spite of my deformity. But as time passed, I grew restless for friends of my own. Because I couldn't go to school or play sports... Or even show my face outside this farm, my father set out to learn his son's science... So that before he died he might create for me a mate.
Shaineh Berkowitz
Uh-oh.
The Great Mutato
Alas, my father was a simple man; his heart close to the soil he worked, the animals he tended. The experiments he attempted, too advanced; the science too complex for his understanding. The results of his experiments unsatisfactory.
[ clucking ]
[ bleating ]
Shaineh Berkowitz
I still-- you mean Izzy-- but who's the father?
[ oinking ]
The Great Mutato
Suffice to say, his experiments failed. My father is dead. I am alone and miserable. If one as deformed and horrible as myself would not deny herself to me, if this being you can create, I will take blame as a murderer.
Dr. Polidori
I don't know how to re-create you. You were a mistake.
The Great Mutato
What we did was wrong. But in our trespasses, we gave you a loving son. And in your homes... I went places I never dreamed of. With your books and your records... And your home media centers, I learned of the world. And of a mother's love that I'll never know. Cher loved that boy so much.
Izzy Berkowitz
Hey... He's no monster.
The Great Mutato
Arrest me then, as you will.

Dana Scully
There's not gonna be any bride, Mulder. Not in this story.
