When is the “Real” Anniversary of Mulder and Scully’s Partnership?
In The X-Files, March 6th marks the anniversary of when Dana Scully became partners with Fox Mulder. 
While you can anticipate many commemorative tweets, you might notice a discrepancy when it comes to the year. Is it the 30th or 31st anniversary?
Find out in the following exploration 🔎
[As always, because of Tumblr’s photo limit on posts, this thread looks a lot better on Twitter]
The Pilot episode of "The X-Files" aired on September 10th, 1993 on the FOX Network, but it took a long time to get there.
Chris Carter first conceptualized the idea for the show in March 1992, and he began working on the first draft in September 1992 (Lowry, 16). The FOX Network ordered a script by November 1992 (Lowry, 13). The first draft of the script was submitted in December of that year. Further revisions – from which the shooting script was compiled – were made in March of 1993.
Principal photography took place over fourteen days in March 1993 (Lovece, 47). Post-production work on the episode was finished by May 1993, with the final version of the episode being assembled only three hours before its preview screening for FOX executives (Edwards, 37). With that, "The X-Files" was slated to join the 1993-1994 FOX Network lineup.
While many television shows are flexible with timelines, "The X-Files" tends to generally reflect real-world time. So with most production occurring in 1993, what's the problem?
According to research done by avid fans at Eat the Corn, Chris Carter set the "Pilot" in March 1992 to honor when he first conceived of the idea. A small ode to the birth of "The X-Files."
While a small detail, the 1992 v. 1993 debate has plagued fans every March for decades.
While the timestamps in the "Pilot" indicate 1992, there's a plethora of in-show, direct references to support that it's canon Mulder and Scully started working together in 1993.
In honor of Mulder and Scully, let me present you with the facts so you can make an informed decision
To begin, here is a screenshot from the "Pilot" that indicates 1992. Mulder and Scully met the day before they begin investigating the case, so they were partnered together and first introduced on March 6th.
Tumblr media
While "Deep Throat" (1x02) doesn't reference a date, a timestamp in "Squeeze" (1x03) indicates 1993. You can also see/hear references to 1993 in "The Jersey Devil" (1x05), Shadows (1x06), "Ghost in the Machine" (1x07), "Ice" (1x08), "Eve" (1x11), and "Lazarus" (1x15).
Tumblr media
This is a trend "The X-Files" typically follows. The first half of the series is generally set in the fall while the latter half is set in the spring, mirroring the traditional television schedule (barring finale/premiere two-parters and post-production changes in episode order).
Based on "The X-Files"’s tendency to reflect the year a given episode is airing, it can be presumed the "Pilot" is included in that (barring Carter's self-referential Easter egg).
While I recognize the hypocrisy of saying "don't believe this timestamp" by providing evidence of other timestamps, I hope to demonstrate that if you believe it's 1992 solely because it was shown in canon, there is an overwhelming amount of similar evidence to prove the contrary.
Additionally, if they met in 1992, that means there is a whole year of their partnership we never see.
Many of the lines in season one were written to highlight the newness of their relationship and would sound awkward coming from partners of over a year.
In seasons one and two, there aren't many allusions to the "Pilot" or Scully being assigned to The X-Files. However, as I'll demonstrate below, there are several references made in every season for the rest of the show's run that solidify 1993 as the correct date.
Keep in mind that "The X-Files" generally uses the year of the episode's airing as the in-show date, so while many of my examples will only have a Month/Day reference, we can assume from the airing year.
Syzygy (3x13)
Written By: Chris Carter
Airing Date: January 26th, 1996
SCULLY: Look, we’ve been working together for, what, two years now? We have different opinions, but I didn’t expect you to ditch me.
Evidence: Presuming the three-year mark is March 1996, this indicates 1993
Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man
Written By: Glen Morgan
Airing Date: November 17th, 1996
While watching CSM's history, we see the moments leading up to his appearance in the "Pilot" wherein the 1992 appears on screen once more.
Evidence: 1992 Timestamp
This moment of Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man is the piece of evidence (often the only) that pro-1992 fans use to justify the 1992 date. 
It could be said that, while writing his connections to the "Pilot", Glen Morgan rewatched the episode and used 1992 to keep continuity.

Tunguska (4x08) and Terma (4x09) - Same Dialogue
Written By: Frank Spotnitz and Chris Carter
Airing Date: November 24th and December 1st, 1996
SCULLY: I left behind a career in medicine to become an FBI agent four years ago because I believed in this country.

Tempus Fugit (4x17)
Written By: Frank Spotnitz and Chris Carter
Airing Date: March 16th, 1997
SCULLY: Mulder... you have never remembered my birthday in the four years I've known you.
MULDER: [...] It's every four years, it's like dog years that way.
Evidence: 1993
It is valid to point out that this one could be discounted being that we know Scully's birthday is in February and they met in March -- meaning that they would've only been together for three of her birthdays. 
However, her line is very explicitly "four years I've known you"
Tumblr media
Elegy (4x22)
Written by: John Shiban
Aired: May 4th, 1997
MULDER: What is that look, Scully?
SCULLY: I would have thought that after three years you'd know exactly what that look was

Evidence: 1993
Fight the Future (1998)
Written by: Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz
Released: June 19th, 1998
MULDER: Five years together, Scully. How many times I been wrong?
Evidence: 1993
Tumblr media
Tithonous (6x10)
Written by: Vince Gilligan
Aired: January 24th, 1999
We can see Scully’s career timeline on screen, but I, personally, cannot discern the date. Maybe it says 1992, maybe it says 1993, maybe it gives me cataracts.
Evidence: ???
Tumblr media
Field Trip (6x21)

Teleplay by: Vince Gilligan and Chris Carter

GARRY SHANDLING AS MULDER: You know, seven long years I've been waiting for just the right moment, Scully.
Evidence: 1993
Fight Club (7x20)
Written by: Chris Carter
Aired: May 7th, 2000
MULDER: No, the interesting thing about these agents is they had worked together for seven years previously without any incident.
SCULLY: Seven years?
MULDER: Yeah, but they are not ... romantically involved if that's what you're thinking.
Evidence: 1993
A tounge-in-cheek reference to Mulder and Scully’s relationship taking a sexual turn a few episodes prior.
Je Souhaite (7x21)

SCULLY: You know, Mulder, in the seven years that we've been working together I have seen some amazing things, but this?
Evidence: 1993

Written by: Chris Carter
Aired: May 21st, 2000
Multiple direct references to the pilot
MALE VOICE: (on phone) My name is Billy Miles. I don't know if you remember me.
MULDER: Oregon, seven years ago.
-----
SCULLY: I watched Agent Mulder paint that there seven years ago.
------
MULDER: Seven years ago you came to Agent Scully and I for help.
Evidence: 1993
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Per Manum (8x13)
Written by: Frank Spotnitz and Chris Carter
Aired: February 18th, 2001
DUFFY HASKELL: I contacted you about my wife About eight years ago because she was an alien abductee.
SCULLY: That was before my time here.
This episode is one of those “back from break” episodes that takes place in Fall of the previous year, so the “present day” parts of this episode occurs in 2000 -- meaning the eight year anniversary hasn’t happened yet. It more than implies 1992 would be “before her time.”
Evidence: 1993
DeadAlive (8x15)
Written by: Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz
Aired: April 1st, 2001
DOGGETT: What?
SCULLY: I heard the same speech come out of my mouth seven years ago.

Written by: Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz
Aired: April 8th, 2001
Multiple references
KERSH: From this report, you and Agent Scully have had more arrests on percentage than she and Mulder over seven years.
-----
MULDER: Truth is, this is a bullet that was fired about eight years ago.
Evidence:  Mulder went missing in 2000, so for Kersh’s statement to be correct, they had to have worked together from 1993-2000. 1993 is further backed up by Mulder’s line.
Dæmonicus (9x03)
Written by: Frank Spotnitz
Aired: December 2nd, 2001
SCULLY: Dr. Dana Scully. I have just been assigned to the Academy as a forensic investigator. For the past eight years I was part of a unit known as the X-Files.
Evidence: 1993
Sunshine Days (9x18)
Written by: Vince Gilligan
Aired: May 12th, 2002
SCULLY: It very well could. I mean, I've... I've been working this unit for nine years now. I-I've investigated nearly 200 paranormal cases. We are due for some incontrovertible proof. I want vindication, for ... for Mulder and ... for all of us.
Evidence: 1993. This was the 200th episode of the show, meaning we’ve watched nearly every case they ever worked together.
The Truth (9x19/20)
Written by: Chris Carter
Aired: May 19th, 2022
Several references
SCULLY: My name is Dana Katherine Scully. I was assigned nine years ago to the X-Files to spy on Agent Mulder whose methods the FBI distrusted.
------
MULDER: Because this is greater than you or me. This is about everything we worked for for nine years.
------
KALLENBRUNNER: She gave up the miracle child? The proof of everything that she and Mulder claim that they've risked their lives for over the last nine years - she just sent it off to some strangers?
------
REYES: You don't care what these people have sacrificed over the last nine years - what's been lost to their cause.
------
MULDER: I'd like to congratulate you on succeeding where so many before you have failed. A bullet between the eyes would have been preferable to this charade. But I've learned to pretend over the past nine years - to pretend that my victories mattered only to realize that no one was keeping score.
Evidence: 1993
My Struggle (10x01)
Written by: Chris Carter
Aired: January 24th, 2016
MULDER: In 1993, the FBI sought to impugn my work, bringing in a scientist and medical doctor to debunk it, which only deepened my obsession for the better part of a decade, during which time that agent, Dana Scully, had her own faith tested.
Evidence: Can’t lay it out much more than that. 1993.
Tumblr media
Babylon (10x05)
Written by: Chris Carter
Aired: February 15th, 2016
SCULLY: Nobody but the FBI's Most Unwanted. I've been waiting twenty-three years to say that.
Evidence: Direct reference to the “Pilot.” 1993.
To sum it up, there are 23 episodes (over 1/10th of the series) that reference 1993 as being the year Mulder and Scully met, 4 episodes (technically 3 since it’s a repeated line in Tunguska/Terma) that indicate 1992, 2 that imply 1994, and 1 that I can’t read.
It is worth noting that many television pilots end up looking different than the rest of the show (I mean... we don’t even get the classic X-Files theme in the Pilot, and Scully’s hair isn’t quite the red we’ve all come to know and love). Pilots are the ‘pitch’ in the hopes they’ll be approved for more, and sometimes the network exectutives say “okay, but change xyz,” resulting in actor changes, character alterations, and pivoting directions. One could say the Pilot date shouldn’t be taken at face value for this reason.
Also worth noting, 1992 isn’t treated like an accident. Like many other shows, The X-Files has made alterations to certain details they wanted to change before the DVD releases. One such example is that Gillian Anderson’s wrist tattoo was accidentally left in during a scene that aired, but you can see it has been edited out on subsequent releases because Scully doesn’t have a wrist tattoo. This proves that they want the show to be as accurate as possible when they release it. Since they haven’t changed the 1992, it serves to illustrate that it is likley a meaningful Easter Egg for Chris Carter, and not a true canoncial fact he sticks by seeing as many of the above references to 1993 were made by Chris himself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Despite my 1993 propoganda, I know damn well we will all see a bunch of “Happy 31st Anniversary” posts here in a few days. I’ve been on those X-Files Facebook fanpages enough to know that if you post “Happy 30th Anniversary,” an angry, self-righteous bro will post a screenshot of the timestamp and say “Actually, it was 1992.” The X-Files’ popularity made it a hit with general audiences who see 1992 on screen and take it for what it is, and The X-Files’ appeal to cult fandoms inspired anal-retentive fans like myself to look deeper and find the 1993 written in the margins (over-and-over). 
Above all else, I encourage everyone to celebrate it however they want, at the end of the day, I think it’s beautiful that a thirty year old show is still being celebrated by its fans and recognized as an important piece of pop culture and television history. 
I will end this thread with one final quote from Scully: “The truth is out there... but so are lies.”

Do you have a list of your favorite season 1-3 episodes? I want to get into the first few seasons but I need something to latch onto
oh hell yeah!!! I love seasons 1-3 and as much as I love Cas I never skip over them when I rewatch. There are some real gems of episodes, awesome characters, cool monsters, and Essential Character Building and Family Drama that lets you get into the meat of the dumbass Winchesters
alright these are my picks with reasoning:
Season 1: 
1x01: Pilot - you gotta watch it. Fanfuckingtastic episode all around. ESSENTIAL
1x03: Dead in the Water - honestly i love this ep bc it shows Dean with kids and lets him talk about his trauma. sue me. not essential-essential
1x05: Bloody Mary - Awesome ep, cool monster. Sam backstory. 
1x06: Skin - fucking awesome episode!!! cool monster, good music
1x10: Scarecrow - Awsome!! fun lines, brother drama, cool monster, character entry
1x11: Faith - I know this is three in a row but these are amazing. Faith is your start into Really Hating John Winchester and is just... heartbreaking and good 
1x17: Hell House - not essential essential, it’s the ep that introduces the Ghost Facers and I love them and the monster concept
1x18: Something Wicked - Another Hate John Winchester his sons’ sakes heartbreaking good ep. Yes I know and yes i love it 
1x20-1x22 - These eps are just kind of essential for the Winchester Family Drama and also the Overarching plot. They’re pretty solid episodes too, and I do love the big bad
Season 2: 
2x01: In My Time Of Dying - you will need to watch this ep after the finale of the first season and you will not regret it. it will rip your heart out a little but what doesn’t in this show
2x02: Everybody Loves A Clown - Introduces you to Ellen and Jo and Ash!!!! Essential character growth/progression/tension! creepy ass monster. Dean looking hot in a carnie get-up
2x03: Bloodlust - introduces you to Gordon Walker. God i hate the guy but he is a really cool character
2x05: Simon Said - Introduces you to a fun-ass character and some essential Big Plot stuff. it’s funny and a little shocking
2x08: Crossroad Blues - introduces the Art of the Deal. talks about Robert Johnson which I’m a slut for.
2x10: Hunted - A great round of brother drama along with Big Plot. This ep just has a great rhythm and is really engaging no matter what you look for
2x12: Nightshifter - awesome episode, great musical cues, I believe it introduces you to the love of my life Victor Henrikson. Amazing minor character which Dean adores which I adore. pump it in my veins classic spn 
2x15: Tall Tales - Introduces you to another fun-ass character and has a ton of Suffering Bobby fathering his Bitchy Boys which is hilarious
2x17: Heart - a famous ep for a reason. a great MOTW story and some heartbreak thrown in 
2x18: Hollywood Babylon - a funny MOTW on a horror movie set. an even funnier ep if you know before hand that everything the Network Executive says in this ep is something the Network told SPN writers about SPN. not essential essential
2x19: Folsom Prison Blues - Another just fantastic episode. It’s got Dean inexplicably looking great in an orange jumpsuit and it’s just good.
2x20: What is and What Should Never Be - GOD I HAVE WATCHED THIS EP SO MANY TIMES. it breaks my fucking heart but it’s soooo good
2x21-2x22: Essential end of the season episodes you need for the plot, they also bang really hard. 
Season 3: 
3x01: The Magnificent Seven - it’s got cool demons, it’s got you finding stuff out and brother drama because of that, it’s good
3x03: Bad Day at Black Rock - Introduces you to Bela! who i think is pretty sick. also a funny ep
3x07: Fresh Blood - the follow up to Gordon Walker. A good ep, lots of tension, it’s classic spn to me 
3x08: A Supernatural Christmas - the epitome of classic spn. a funny MOTW ep wrapped up in Christmas wrapped up in sadness
3x10: Dream A Little Dream of Me - you need to watch this episode for Dean’s character development. I don’t know how many times I’ve watched it but due to mental illness gee it might be my most watched. GOOD EP
3x11: Mystery Spot - a CLASSIC spn episode you say? a funny MOTW ep wrapped up in Groundhog Day wrapped up in sadness
3x12: Jus in Bello - I LOVE THIS EPISODE. walking legend victor henrikson (having a little bi moment with dean), ruby, awesome stakes, shock and awe and fun and sadness
3x13: Ghostfacers - remember how I said I love Ghostfacers?? shows how much the winchesters would cuss if they weren’t on the CW/WB. essential viewing for the line :
Tumblr media
3x15: Time is on My Side - gives you essential character info about Bela which i AM STILL MAD ABOUT bc Sam and Dean never find out and really amps up the suspense in a way I love
3x16: In My Time of Dying - this is a good episode. this episode will punch you in the gut. yes i’m sorry yes you must go through it welcome
(^^ in case you didn’t know, season 3 only has 16 episodes because there was a writers’ strike around this time and they couldn’t finish the season without writers!! which led to them finishing the season early and then bringing Cas in because they didn’t know what else to do! talk about divine intervention, hell yes to unions)

Throughout the first half of season one, we can see a great deal of how Martin Whitly’s actions affected his wife and son, both of whom are still actively struggling with the guilt of having been in some way intimate with such a man. Ainsley, in contrast, seems relatively unaffected by the situation and even describes herself as “lucky” in comparison to her brother- she is at least five years younger than Malcolm and seems to remember little of her father, giving her a significant emotional disconnection from his crimes. In direct contrast to her brother, she can hold down a steady job, engage in close relationships, and doesn’t appear to be in any kind of therapy. Unlike her mother, she isn’t even shown to be self-medicating in any way - she simply does not seem to need such coping methods. 
This relative stability is a gift, one for which Jessica explicitly gives herself credit: “Do you sleep at night? ...When you close your eyes, do you find peace? That peace is because of the choices I made. You can thank me any time you like.”  (1x03)
And it’s a gift which, arguably, Ainsley squanders over the course of the first half of season 1. 
“I don’t remember my dad. I was forbidden.” In the first ten episodes of Prodigal Son, we get to see some of the time immediately before and after Martin’s arrest, all from either Malcolm’s or Jessica’s point of view. We see nothing at all of Ainsley, except for a brief shot of her being held by her mother during Martin’s arrest. Given that Ainsley was only five years old at the time, this is admittedly unsurprising. Her memories of that time, so far as we know, are limited to Malcolm’s reassurances (“I was only five when Dad was arrested, I don’t really remember it. But I remember you. Telling me everything was going to be okay when you knew it wasn’t.”, 1x01). 
But she would certainly remember what happened afterwards, in the twenty years between Martin’s arrest and the first episode of Prodigal Son. We do not know exactly how Malcolm and Ainsley grew up following Martin’s arrest, but we can make certain deductions. 
Malcolm, as the person who discovered Martin’s true identity, as the one who was clearly and obviously traumatised by the discovery, would likely have been the focus of Jessica’s attention - in the same way that any child in crisis would be. Jessica’s active concern for Malcolm continues into the present day, clearly signposted in the first episode: Malcolm: “I assume you don’t break into Ainsley’s place like this.” Jessica: “God, no! She’s perfect. You’re my only concern.”
Additionally, we know that Martin Whitly, perfectly understandably, becomes something of a ghost in his former home. All reminders of him are packed away - there are no photos of him, his private study in the basement is walled up and forgotten, leading Malcolm to hide certain reminders of happier times in a shoebox under his bed. We don’t know exactly how Jessica navigates this particular transition from well-to-do nuclear family to tabloid fodder - how she told Ainsley the truth about her father or, quite frankly, if she ever did explicitly. Did Martin become something which simply was not spoken of in polite company, or indeed any company at all? 
Ainsley’s choice of words in 1x03 (“I was forbidden”) suggests a harsher line than simple silence, potentially indicating that questions about Martin were not only frowned upon but actively discouraged. Martin Whitly, loving father, was gone for good; the Surgeon was all that remained, and the Surgeon was not to be discussed. As early as 1x03, Ainsley even says that she has no idea what being back in contact with Martin will do to her brother’s mental health because she has no knowledge of who or what Martin Whitly really is. 
Just like Malcolm and Jessica, Ainsley seems to be struggling with having a connection to a monster. Regardless of the fact that she doesn’t remember having a familial relationship with Martin, he is her biological father - and if her mother and brother can’t give her the answers that she needs about him, she’s going to go straight to the source instead. 
“Martin Whitly is your biggest fan.” Ainsley’s decision to meet with Martin in episode four is prompted, I would argue, by a combination of curiosity and, let’s be fair, the sort of spite that springs up when a controlling parent tells you not to do something - after all, she only goes to visit Martin after both her mother and her brother have done the same thing, all while maintaining that nobody should ever go and speak to the Surgeon. But I find it very interesting that she only makes the decision to visit him after her mother lets slip a brand new piece of information: 
Ainsley: Thanks to both of you, he doesn’t even know I exist.  Jessica: He knows all about you. He watches you every day. He daughter, the ace reporter. Martin Whitly is your biggest fan. 
This information, it should be noted, is only news to Ainsley. We, the audience, see Martin watching one of Ainsley’s broadcasts in 1x02; in episode 1x03, he asks Malcolm to “Please tell your sister that her diction is impeccable!” and, in the same episode, he compliments Jessica on her excellent childrearing (“You did well, Jessica. I am so proud of him, and of Ainsley, and of you, for raising our beautiful children.”). 
And, from my perspective, this information is also profoundly creepy. A convicted serial killer obsessively watches all of a homicide journalist’s broadcasts? That’s a two-parter of Criminal Minds right there. 
But to Ainsley it’s a link, a connection, to a part of her life which she has never really been allowed to engage with. The trauma of Martin Whitly is written large on her mother and brother, but her trauma is second-hand and reactionary, which is admittedly a great improvement on the alternative, but would Ainsley see it that way? All children want to do is feel like they belong, and being the one left out - even the one left out of trauma - is never pleasant. 
Now, through an offhand comment from her mother, Ainsley knows that her father is interested in her, and in her work - in direct contrast to her mother, who supports her work idly, never really watching her reports (“Not with the sound on!”, 1x01), who finally starts to tell her something real about her father and his opinion of her and then immediately tries to shut the conversation down (“Can we please talk about something else?”, 1x04).
And so Ainsley heads off to see her father for the first time in twenty years. 
“You made him out to be just a monster.” We, the audience, had a full two weeks to wait between seeing Ainsley in Martin’s cell and hearing anything of the conversation that they shared, which was genuinely one of the most infuriating cliff-hangers I’ve seen for a while. 
The meeting with Martin undoubtedly rattles Ainsley, albeit not in the way she expected. As Jessica points out, Ainsley went to that cell to meet a monster, and instead found a seemingly loving father (1x06). A man who regretted his absences in his daughter’s life and had filled the gaps with daydreams of “birthdays, piano recitals, dancing with [her] at the debutante ball” (1x06), daydreams in which, judging by the fantasies shared with Ainsley, he plays the starring role of Devoted Father. This conversation could have been repeated between any father-daughter duo separated in television plotlines around the world - the cause of that separation is so overlooked by Martin’s little fantasy to be actually hilarious. 
And, by this point in the series, we’ve seen both Malcolm and Jessica be taken in by Martin’s acts, not to mention all the people that Martin had fooled during his days as an active serial killer, so it’s hardly surprising that Ainsley is at least a little taken in as well. The split between Martin-the-father and Martin-the-serial-killer is also one that has preoccupied Jessica and Malcolm throughout the twenty-years and it’s one that Ainsley, through her lack of memories about Martin, has been spared up until the moment she comes face to face with him, and asks him the “most important question”: ” “Was it real? … Did you love us or was it just some psychopathic act?”
The surviving members of the Whitly family may never really know the answer to that question - and it’s a question which has no easy answers. Which would truly be worse - being an unwilling cover story for a monster, or genuinely being loved by a monster? 
But, for Ainsley, the question is no longer about what her relationship with Martin was; it’s about what it could be - or, more precisely, about what it could do for her.   
“Ambition is not a dirty word.”  The decision to interview Martin is one which, full disclosure, makes perfect sense from a professional point of view; an interview with a notorious serial killer, particularly one who had never spoken publicly about his crimes before, would be a feather in the cap of any crime journalist. She is also arguably the best choice to conduct such an interview from a creepy mercenary perspective - her familial relationship to the Surgeon gives the interview a sensationalist angle which would be impossible for any other network to easily duplicate - and, unlike the rest of her family, Ainsley has not yet been traumatised by Martin Whitly. 
Of course, it's the ‘yet' in that last sentence that has Jessica and Malcolm so worried about Ainsley - her visiting Martin might be less immediately damaging that Malcolm or Jessica coming face to face with their own personal demon, but it's still very unlikely to be healthy. 
Interestingly, Malcolm's concerns about the interview seem to be extremely focused on Ainsley's immediate personal safety ("You’re putting yourself in his cross hairs"), and his reaction on learning that she's already seen Martin is to ask if she is okay. Jessica, as the only member of the family who really remembers the immediate media aftermath of Martin's arrest, becomes far more focused on the potential PR concerns: 
Jessica: Ainsley, if you do not have a plan to make him look bad, he will look good. Tell me you understand. Ainsley: Mother, these are the questions I sent. Not the questions I’m going to ask.  Jessica: Alright. I see what you’re doing.  Ainsley: Good. Can you stop worrying?  Jessica: I am far more worried now.  Ainsley: What? Why?  Jessica: Thinking you are more clever than Martin Whitley, that’s the worst mistake you can make. He’ll exploit that. He’ll find a way to come off sympathetic and you will be sitting there like-  Ainsley: Like what?  Jessica: His accomplice. 
Jessica, as we learn later in the season, was herself questioned by the police about her role in Martin's crimes, and I am sure that the media speculation around the Wife of the Surgeon would have been horrific and heartbreaking. She clearly does not want Ainsley to put herself through the same thing - and she certainly does not want Martin to have any opportunity to manipulate the wider population, as he has so easily manipulated his own family in the past. 
This is not to say that Jessica has no concern for Ainsley's safety - her immediate reaction to the potential interview is to get the entire thing blacklisted by the network itself. It's only when Ainsley reveals a willingness to outplay her mother at that particular chess game that she relents - not to give her blessing, but to step back and allow Ainsley the dignity of her own choices. 
And, potentially, Ainsley does take some of her mother's fears seriously - she insists on keeping Martin in his restraints during the interview, despite technical concerns from Jin the Cameraman, and she makes sure that the red safety line on the cell floor is in shot. She even refuses Hair and Makeup the chance to make Martin look anymore physically presentable before the interview begins.  
The interview itself, however, does not go exactly as Ainsley had clearly wanted it to - first, Martin neatly sidesteps her attempts to throw past crimes in his face, then her brother interrupts with police business, then her cameraman gets stabbed. All in all, hardly a good day at the office.
The interplay between Martin and Ainsley hashes out the timeless question of what really makes a person - Ainsley focuses on the lives her took, complete with grisly details ("Billy Franklin, age 23. Aced his LSATs, wanted to become a civil rights lawyer. You removed his heart to see how long he could live without it. He died a gruesome, agonising death. My question is why?", 1x07), Martin fights backs with the lives he saved ("How about Corey Goldstein, age 10? A brutal car accident left him with a surely fatal aortic rupture. Until he landed in my OR, where I saved his life.") and the medical procedures he developed ("Did you know they named a medical procedure after me? ...I’ve heard a rumour that doctors still call it the Whitley, in hospitals all around the world", 1x07). 
It's a far more complicated portrayal of evil that Ainsley had prepared for - she has no good response prepared for the accusation that Martin did some good in the world, unlike her pithy retorts about particular victims and what Martin did to them. We don't get the chance to see if Ainsley would have been able to retake control of the interview, given Malcolm's interruption, as his arrival gives Ainsley a very different line of attack - the only line of attack, it must be said, that ever seems to really rattle Martin. Ainsley is the only character in the first part of season 1 to really get under Martin's skin - but she can only do it by using her own brother as bait: 
Ainsley: So. I mentioned a number of your victims earlier, but I’d like to discuss one more. Malcolm. Malcolm Whitly.  Martin: I’m not sure I understand Ainsley: You claim to care about your son, but what you did twenty years ago harmed him irreparably.  Martin: Well, that’s not true.  Ainsley: Isn’t it? He’s been diagnosed with complex PTSD, generalised anxiety disorder, night terrors. Dr Whitley, do you know what happens to the human body when it withstands that much stress for that long a period of time?  Martin: I’m not sure that’s relevant-  Ainsley: He was fired from the only job he was ever good at. He hasn’t been in a stable relationship for years. And the ten years he went without seeing you were by far the happiest, healthiest of his life.  Martin: Well, that’s absolutely not- Ainsley: What does that say about you, except for you’re an absolutely terrible father?  Martin: I’m not.  Ainsley: He just wanted to love you. And you caused him so much pain.  Martin: Stop it.  Ainsley: What kind of a father does that?  Martin: Stop it! I was a good father, damn it! 
This interaction goes on to form a crucial part of the interview - Martin's loss of control is featured in the introduction to the actual broadcast (as seen in 1x10) - and it was not at all discussed with Malcolm beforehand. We, the audience, are not entirely clear on how much information Martin had about his son's condition prior to Ainsley’s disclosure- he would have known some things, noticed symptoms such as the hand tremor, but that is still potentially miles away from Malcolm's having his mental health history spelt out like that in front of Martin and, potentially, in front of everyone who watched Ainsley's interview. 
It's a successful and potentially satisfying manipulation of Martin, to be sure, but it's also a heart-wrenching violation of Malcolm, and Ainsley never seems to notice. 
In a matter of hours, Ainsley double-downs on the notion of violating the privacy of others when she films Martin perform surgery on Jin the Cameraman, stabbed in the patient-uprising which Martin himself engineered. We never get to see Malcolm's reaction to his violation - he doesn't seem to challenge Ainsley on it directly in any way - but Jin does (1x08). Jin, when he wakes in the hospital to find that Ainsley filmed the surgery and didn't tell him about it, has a very simple and understandably reaction. 
Jin: What is this? You filmed my surgery? Ainsley: I was going to tell you. I just- I- I- I got so caught up in the adrenaline and it was so compelling- Jin: Oh, was it? Was it compelling when I almost died?  Ainsley: We went there to get a great story and we got one. I was doing my job!  Jin: I understand. This is who you are. I just don’t think that’s the kind of person that I want to be with. 
And Ainsley doesn’t try to apologise to her boyfriend, or try to explain herself any further - she leaves Jin in the hospital, taking the interview footage with her instead. 
“I’m telling my story!” The interview, despite the various dramas around it all, is eventually broadcast. Thanks to Jessica’s well-thrown shoe (seriously), we never get to see the interview in its entirety (which is a great shame, seeing as we only see Ainsley get a few minutes of usable footage in 1x07), but we do get to see the introduction: “Dr Martin Whitley murdered 23 people as the Surgeon, making him one of the world’s most deadly serial killers. I’m Ainsley Whitley for American Direct News and the Surgeon is my father.” 
The clips that we see include Martin's lose of control at being called a terrible father, which strongly implies that at least some of the section concerning Malcolm was kept in; we have no idea if the footage of Jin was used, although I'm assuming that he would have had to give permission for his own surgery to be shown on national television and, given his reaction in the hospital to the footage, I'm equally comfortable assuming that he would not have given such permission. 
While Malcolm tries to watch the interview, possibly to support his sister, possibly to torture himself futher, Jessica is adament that she will not. Her initial plan seems to have been to pretend that it never happened; she only speaks to Ainsley about it when Ainsley pushes past her joking “no comment” to challenge Jessica on her perceived lack of support for her daughter's professional accomplishment. 
This pushes Jessica to have perhaps the most genuine and honest conversation with her daughter about Martin and their past which they had ever had (1x10):  Jessica: Your father destroyed us. Your brother and me. You put him on television and let him talk about it. You have gone and soaked yourself in blood. The press devoured us twenty years ago, and now they are at it again.
This information is given calmly, perhaps even dispassionately: for Jessica, the destruction of herself and her son is a simple matter of fact. Not to be spoken of, of course, but ever-present and utterly undeniable. She does not even become angry until Ainsley accuses her of "playing the victim": "I am not a victim! But there are victims. Real ones. How do you think those twenty-three families feel when they see you on television? And why is the story never about them?"
The story is not about them, of course, because for Ainsley, the story is currently about her. Ainsley's newfound 'ownership' over the Surgeon story is clearly spelled out in the interview's introduction ("the Surgeon is my father"), her reaction to the paparazzi outside her mother's home ("Any breaking news about my family is mine to report") and, finally, in her retort to Jessica's challenges over the entire interview: "I'm telling my story!"
But, as we've discussed earlier, Ainsley doesn't actually have a story with the Surgeon. In the real-crime biography of Martin Whitley, she's a footnote at best. Jessica, who married a monster, Malcolm, who unveiled a monster, the twenty-three or more people who died at the Surgeon's hands, the hundreds of people, including Jin, who had their lives saved by the Surgeon, they all have a story with the Surgeon. Ainsley simply does not. And in her attempts to create one during the first half of season 1, she only really gets anywhere when she uses the stories of others - her casual retelling of the horrific things the victims went through, her reveal of Malcolm's mental health diagnoses, her filming Jin's surgery.
Ainsley’s lack of personal connection to the Surgeon was her greatest asset in a very broken family at the beginning of the series; her attempt to create such a narrative when none organically existed has been the cause of pain for plenty of people other than herself. 
All that remains to be seen is how this narrative - either genuine or manufactured - continues to develop in the second half of season 1.

hello! idk if this is a dumb question but i've grown quite fond of the buzzfeed unsolved boys just from seeing your posts lol and wanted to ask - where should i start with their series? which episodes would you recommend?
Oh I got you, boo.
Okay So The Basics:
There’s two main shows of Buzzfeed Unsolved: 1) Supernatural and 2) True Crime. They’re idependent of each other so whichever floats your boat is a good place to start. Each episode is also self-contained so watching them in order isn’t required.
There’s also adjacent Buzzfeed shows and new shows on the boys’ own network Watcher (discussed at the end).
On the Boys: The presenter is Ryan and he’s all about them conspiracies and aliens and the tall boy is Shane who is all about skepticism and logic (but has massive chaotic energy). Fans who lean towards the former’s way of thinking are “Boogaras” and those who lean towards the laters’ are “Shaniacs”.
The Watching:
As stated above, order-shmorder. However, they’re all wholesome and good so like, watching them all won’t hurt. Have you got time? Do you need a giggle? Get thee that playlist and go forth!
Supernatural - episode list with links
Ryan: This week on Buzzfeed Unsolved we investigate this location as part of our ongoing investigation into the question: are ghosts real?Shane: *shakes head*
Sometimes they do on-location shoots where they investigate supposed paranormal events. The juxtaposition of Ryan being scared of everything (so precious, so pure) vs. Shane going “eh, just the wind” is hilarious. Also Ryan is scared of demons and therefore allows only one (1) demon investigation per season.
Top Eps, as Voted by Fans:
#1 - 1x03 - 3 Horrifying Cases of Ghosts and Demons - (”Rock n’ roll, buckaroo!”) - Their first on-location shoot, and the third (the Sallie House) is *chef’s kiss* because Ryan looses it entirely over flickering flashlights. Also a personal fave.
#2 - 3x04 - The Demonic Goatman’s Bridge (“We’re here for the cult stuff.” ; “I stole your bridge, Goatman!“ ; “Don’t try it, demon!“ *with a holy-water pistol*)
#3 - 2x09 - The Haunted Quarters of the Dauphine Orleans House (“I’m bad at feeling. I wanna be swept up in this. I really wanna believe in something outside the norm of, you know, physics.”)
Other Good Ones (Recommended on their Vibe):
1x06 - The Spirits of the Whaley House (“You can feel the history coming from the walls in here.” “Yeah, isn’t that wonderful?” “Not when the history fights back!)
1x07 - The Haunted Decks of the Queen Mary (“Are you scared right now?” “Yeah, are you not fucking scared right now?” “*irritated* Are you just afraid of anything that’s old?”) - The boys stay overnight on a haunted ship. Ryan’s origin story as a Believer is revealed (and mocked).
2x01 - The Ghosts and Demns of Bobby Mackey’s (“Hey there demons, it’s me, ya boy.” ; “Why do you always have to insult the ghost of the place we’re at?”)
2x02 - Bigfoot: The Convincing Evidence (“”That’s a guy I wanna share a cold one with.“ Is what Bigfoot would say. About me.”) - The boys go into the woods and try to crack a cold one with the ‘Foot.
2x04 - The Haunted Halls of the Waverly Hills Hospital (“Hey ghouls! The boys are here!”)
4x01 - The Seach for the Mysterious Mothman - Road trip!
5x05 - The Haunted Town of Tombstone - Cowboys!
5x08 - The Demonic Curse of Annabelle the Doll - In which we see Shane’s instant reaction to “don’t touch it” being…touch it.
6x02 - The Haunting Shadows of the St. Augustine Lighthouse
True Crime - episode list with links
Top Eps, as Voted by Fans:
#4 - 1x12 - The Strange Disappearance of DB Cooper - The best spit-take!
#5 - 3x01 - The Grisly Murders of Jack the Ripper - On location!
Other Good Ones (Recommended on the Crime)
1x05 - The Strange Deaths of the 9 Hikers of Dyatlov Pass
1x02 - The Horrifying Unsolved Slaughter at Hinterkaifeck Farm
2x01 - The Terrifying Axeman of New Orleans - Jazz for your life!
2x04 - The Tragic Murder Of JonBenét Ramsey (”I’ve connected the two dots.” “You didn’t connect shit.” “I’ve connected them.”)
2x05 - The Odd Vanishing of Amelia Earhart - It was crabs!
2x06 - The Creepy Murder in Room 1046
2x07 - The Strange Drowning of Natalie Wood
3x04 - The Enigmatic Death of the Isdal Woman
4x02 - The Bizarre Collar Bomb Robbery
4x08 - The Treacherous Treasure Hunt of Forrest Fenn - On location hunting for treasure.
5x01 - The Eerie Case of the Watcher - Where they just drag the suspect all episode.
5x02 - The Unusual Australian Shark Arm Murders
Note: Yeah…I’ve not put in lots of alien ones because they’re not my jam too much. Still hilarious episodes, though. Check them out if they’re your jam.
Post-Mortems - Q&A shows for each episode and much more.
The Hot Daga - Part of the Post-Mortems. Shane, much to Ryan’s horror, started writing little funny cartoons at the end, spiraling into a saga abut sentient hot dogs and their friends. Thus was The Hot Daga created. It had songs. It was awesome.
Seasons 1 & 2
Season 3
Season 4
Season 5
Unsolved Almost 70th Episode - Celebration, banter, shenanigans, and retrospectives.
Unsolved Adjacent
Ruining History - Shane recounting tales from history with hilarious annimations and props.
Watcher’s Puppet History - As above, but now with a puppet! (I would die for The Professor.) And Broadway-worthy songs! My favourite is ep 2, Stealing the World’s Most Expensive Necklace. The guest’s energy is just perfect.
