The X-Files - Orison by Rob Bowman, Chip Johannessen.
The X-Files - “Orison”
Written by Chip Johannessen
October 6, 1999 (DRAFT)
In this early draft before Donnie Pfaster was added, Scully’s day starts with a visit from a pair of Jehovah’s Witnesses...
Scully recalls the first time she felt touched by God...
Alternate ending:
The Millinium series finale aired on May 21, 1999. Like the Lone Gunmen, which was cancelled after one season, Millinium was allowed to finish its story on the X-Files with the episode titled "Millinium" that aired November 28, 1999. Millinium ran for 67 episodes. ("Good Bye To All That", Millinium, TV Event)
thoughts on Orison (7x07)
Written by Chip Johannessen Directed by Rob Bowman
Is this a jail church
I HATE that I think this prisoner guy is hot...HATE it
Glory! Amen!
You get holy water, you get holy water, you all get holy water!
He ain’t feeling the spirit
Where are they...is it a jail? Is it a factory?
Um
What...does he see in slow motion?
Oh fuck
Leave Scully alone, I swear to god
6:66 oh boy
I’m scared
Ahh it’s a prison
WAIT fuck this is the guy from Irresistible!!!
Oh god oh god oh god
He IS just plain evil and this is gonna be a good and possibly maddening episode
Y’all I’m gonna cry
He escaped at 6:06...shit
Supernatural stuff be happening around here….
Posthypnotic suggestion!
What’s up with that song
Oh god, this girl’s gonna be a victim
Uh the reverend
What the hell
That’s what I call, fucked up...he escaped with the girl and ran over the reverend
The song again...stop
Scully said “that’s nice” to the reverend
Stop harassing her with religion!
I swear to god Donnie
The reverend was once a murderer
Aww Scully’s story about the song and her Sunday school teacher
So Orison is the reverend
And he has 3 times the blood volume flowing through his brain
Did he accidentally open the gates of Hell? Gotta stay tuned to find out
Pleaseeee stop
Can he...put clothes on
Ugh, her nails and the flowing red hair
“Is your hair chemically treated” if I ever get asked that in real life, I’m RUNNING
Oh no, it’s a wig
This woman defended herself!
Don’t look any further...that’s the song
Mulder’s being way cooler with Scully’s religious connections in this than I anticipated
Kill him!
“Are you crying for your sins or for yourself”
Um HELLO?
I think I would have preferred if this didn’t go into literal monster territory
This is...weird
Still 12 minutes left...do not like where this is headed
Oh fucking SHIT
That would be Miss Dana Scully’s fucking bedroom
Oh god
Please be quiet, I’m praying
I SWEAR
Yes, go for the eyes!!
Oh my fucking god
GOOD GOD SHE SNAPPED
“Girlie girl” I literally never wanted to hear that again...so why did I
Mulder...Mulder please
And in her own goddamn apartment
I’ve never heard this song before this episode, but I certainly will never be able to hear it again after this
Gillian Anderson deserves like 43 different Emmys at this point
STOP STOP STOP
Yes ladies!!!
He’s the actual devil I’d say
Well….that was very...artful
Death! It’s what he deserves!!!!
Mulder didn’t even knock
Even if it was the devil, this man got what was coming to him...don’t worry about it Miss Dana Katherine Scully
Consensus: A great follow-up to Irresistible. I wasn’t aware such a thing existed, so this was a nice surprise.
4.5 out of 5 stars

Claire on set with Chip in West Point, VA. More set pics on Instagram here.
"Bring Hop.... He needs me" - Carrie obviously thinking about Quinn... finds Hop in the shower face down on the tiles... ahhhhh just kill me now show! And that's not even mentioning C tackling him so he doesn't get shot. Dying dying dead (me not Hop/Quinn bc Carrie loves him so)
OMG the whole Hop = Quinn thing was so deliciously trashy!
Thank you “Chocolate” Chip Johannessen! 😘
