dead on the floor. A diary is then discovered among Schnauz's things, and it includes a list of the women he intended to save: Mary Lefante, Alice Brandt, and Agent Scully. Production The inspiration for "Unruhe" was a Time-Life book about serial killers that episode writer Vince Gilligan had read when he was a child; Gilligan, in particular, was struck by the story of Howard Unruh, who shot and killed 13 people (including three children) during a 12-minute walk through his neighborhood on September 6, 1949, in Camden, New Jersey. The episode was also inspired by Ted Serios, whose "thoughtography" is mentioned by Fox Mulder in the episode. Gilligan had written the role of Schnauz with Taylor Vince in mind when he saw him in the Adrian Lyne film Jacob's Ladder (1990). Vince had actually been offered a role on the show during its first season, but he declined at the time because it was "too small" a part. The idea to have Schnauz sit his victims in a dentist chair was added to the script due to widespread dental fear among the general American population. Most of the scenes featuring Schnauz on plasterer's stilts were shot using stuntmen. In the scene where Scully meets Schnauz, a cable was attached to Vince to keep him upright on the stilts; this cord was then edited out in post-production. Props master Ken Hawryliw was forced to create his own leucotome after failing to secure a real one from a hospital. The title of the episode, "Unruhe", is the German word for "unease" or "disquiet". When Scully talks in German to Schnauz, she says "Ich habe keine Unruhe" (literally "I have no unease"). The episode prominently features the drug scopolamine which can cause people to quickly become unconscious, and twilight sleep, which is a condition that can render people unconscious following great moments of pain.
