I see the Awesomeness.
Cut and send to YKTTW if there's anything worth having there.
Fight smart, not fair.
Looks like it needs some gestation in YKTTW.
Rhymes with "Protracted."
The only other example is from a single scene from CSI... And it was a short one, at that.
+1 for cutting and sending through YKTTW.
I will say that I think this concept has potential. And I sure do love the name.

If the name is reused, let's make sure it actually applies to Mulder, shall we? Because this trope is when The Scully has a "Mulder Moment."
^ This trope is when an Agent Scully-type character acts as an Agent Mulder. Or, in other words, a character who is not an Agent Mulder has an out-of-character moment where they behave contrary to their own established character archetype. As I see it, that's both a perfectly good trope and fitting to be called a Mulder Moment.
When an Agent Mulder character does something reminiscent of an Agent Mulder, then the character would not be having a Mulder Moment; the character would only be acting the same way an Agent Mulder always does.

no movement since start of June, requesting lock please
Was wandering randomly and landed on this page, which consists of nothing but a discussion of Mulder's personality traits and ONE maybe-kinda-tangentially-related example of a character who is normally all X suddenly being Y on one issue instead.
