At the end of 10.05 (Babylon) as Mulder and Scully walk, holding hands and discussing the will of God, they're walking perfectly in-step but leading with the opposite legs.
I'm having a lot of feelings about that.

Mulder and Scully *making everyone die with The Implications*: "For better or for worse"
Mr. O'Malley *a coward*: "Well that's besides the point"

"The implication is he's talking about the paranormal"
Ok whatever he could've had a UFO or Flukey or Mr Stretchy-Boy-Tooms on the top for that moment but he didn't; Dr Dana Scully and her perfect manicure was visible right as he said "personal obsession".

Like having the photograph of him and Scully be on the top of the pile when Mulder says "...the FBI closed the X-Files and our investigations ceased. But my personal obsession did not." is diabolical actually.

I'm starting to re-watch Season 10 (of The X-Files) from the beginning and I'm already noticing so many more shippy things than I saw the first time.

@xfdpodcast.bsky.social 'I Want To Believe' that in Chris Carter's director's cut the dog Doesn't Get Hurt Actually, and Skinner takes him home and they're Best Friends.

@xfdpodcast.bsky.social query! Have you guys done a countdown of favourite experimental episodes? I'd be keen to hear your takes.

Loved this episode! It would've fitted my commute perfectly except there was a traffic accident and I had to Sit With My Thoughts for a full half hour just working through a full essay response about how I would knit this episode into the universe.
