Reggie Purdue's wife died of cancer in 1987 but he preferred not to talk about her death with anyone, not even with Mulder after they met. On the day when Mulder first walked into Reggie's office, very soon after Mulder had left the FBI Academy, Reggie was annoyed by even looking at Mulder. Reggie soon realized, however, that Mulder was particularly astute and could think three jumps ahead of most other individuals. Reggie found Mulder's mental aptitude to be scary and heard many others comment on it, with the same or a similar reaction.

| - Reggie Purdue's wife died of cancer in 1987 but he preferred not to talk about her death with anyone, not even with Mulder after they met. On the day when Mulder first walked into Reggie's office, very soon after Mulder had left the FBI Academy, Reggie was annoyed by even looking at Mulder. Reggie soon realized, however, that Mulder was particularly astute and could think three jumps ahead of most other individuals. Reggie found Mulder's mental aptitude to be scary and heard many others comment on it, with the same or a similar reaction. Reggie hated Mulder's routine of chanting his first name and never gave much thought to renowned FBI gossip about Mulder or the fact that his nickname was "Spooky", figuring that it was merely about Mulder's general paranoia. On the other hand, Reggie was also aware that many people in the FBI had big plans for Mulder. For as long as Mulder knew him, Reggie was working on a mystery novel. He once promised to show the story to Mulder but never did. In 1993, Mulder remarked that he thought Reggie had been afraid that Mulder would not like the story; Mulder described himself as "probably the only guy in the Bureau he trusted enough to even ask."
