That was my favorite moment too, I think. Although it did make me

He probably thought it was a simple case of a woman (possibly with the help of
her husband) self-inducing a third-trimester abortion to avoid giving birth to
a slightly deformed child. A crime, but not a case for the FBI, let alone an X
File.

I thought the song was the best part :) The episode was ok, but pretty boring
until the end.

I do like scary well written demon/good/evil stuff. I just didn't think
this was scary - nor did it paint the demon as evil, nor were Mulder's
responses to Wayne responses to an evil demon.

I think it's more a case of Spender being a total and complete smeg-headed
asshole who only took over the X-Files because Daddy let him have the
project. Let's face it, Ferret Face is there only to keep Mulder out.
Mulder is the agent best qualified to handle the X-Files, along with
Scully, and since they didn't want either one of them on the job, they
gave it to Spender as a filler. He's probably got instructions *not to
investigate anything X-File-related. If he wasn't Smokey's son, they'd
have probably moth-balled him somewhere useless where he couldn't do any
damag, like transcibing wire-tap tapes or something...
Sittin' around the office with his supercilious thumb up his butt,
whining to Daddy about bad Mr. Mulder, and polishing his pictures of
Janet Reno and Bill Clinton, no doubt.
One of the best series so far imho
The actor in the latest episode is a great character who did all the
"Evil Dead" movies. As soon as you saw him you knew he was the villain.
So what have we got? Four episodes so far, all what we might call
"funny." A nice show with a few twists, but not exactly what we expect.
I wonder if this is just Carter preparing to exit? And, like a previous
poster, I hate this stupid concept about the XFiles without Mulder and
Scully. They have Frazier out of work on NBC and the ratings have
dropped drastically.
We all know that the second time the pair took off on their own and
disobeyed orders they would be fired. Hell, they fire them in Burger
King for less. It is a stupid plot line and Carter should get off it. I
sometimes think he has actually set out to piss everyone off. If he was
looking for a way to chase away fans, he could not have done it any
better.

I guess he just sitting around in his office sucking up to his superiors,
plotting evil things with his dad and saving the bureau money. BTW Where
the hell is fowley? Getting crap injected into her lips? They did assign
both of them to the X-File not just Weasel Boy.

I wouldn't call it a waste of an hour as I still enjoy trying to
puzzle everything out ahead of time (I avoid spoilers.) I'm still in
the process of reading the posts for TOE but I must say I was very
disappointed. This was not a well written ep.
Let's start with Bruce Campbell's character... *why does he want to
have a "normal" child? He's a demon, right? Why would a demon want to
have a non-demon child? Why would a demon do the nine-to-five grind
for two families in the hopes of getting a normal child? If we'd been
given even half a reason, I wouldn't belabor this point.
Next, what's with the sets of twos? Two wives, two babies, two past
aquitals of murder charges. I don't understand the significance of two
here.
Next, how does wife #1 know that the baby in the fireplace was wrapped
in her nightgown? The investigators would have or could have found
scraps of material but how identifiable would if be as a nightgown?
Did they *show it to wife #1 for her to identify?
Next, how did Wayne end up with the "Indigo Montoya" slashes on his
cheeks? It's a small thing but it's bugging me.
Finally, *what's with the backyard full of normal baby skeletons? How
many were there? How long had they been there? Gestation takes the
better part of a year and women have just so many child-bearing years.
The one skeleton that we were shown looked pretty clean. How long does
it take for the flesh to rot completely from the bone in an
unprotected grave like that?
The only thing I found redeeming in this ep was, sadly, at the
begining, Mulder holding the taped together shreads from Spender's
circular file.
Now for my complaints... would someone just please kill Spender? I'll
leave this one at that.
Next, let's can the Scully constantly covering up for Mulder bit,
'kay? How many more times must we listen to her saying "You're in big
trouble, Mulder."
Next, Mulder not a psychologist... yeah, right. CC? Go rewatch the
pilot, 'kay?
And finally, I think Mulder should drive the car from Night Rider...

No, I meant Skinner. Krycek is meant for Mulder, but Skinner has always
wanted his ass.
Hey, it's not me who has the ass obsession, it's Skinner. And I just
mentioned Krycek in that other thread because he's the only person
"shagging" Mulder's anything. :Ş

I've been watching for about four years now. Thank you for asking this
question. I thought I was going nuts when Mulder said that. I looked at my
wife and said, "since when". Did he get stripped of his degree in psych
when he go booted from the x-files?
I kind of enjoyed last night in a sort of TZ/Night Stalker vein (sp?), but
there were just ENTIRELY too many faux pas to truly enjoy it (unless you
took the Baywatch tack and LOOKED fot things to nit...)

Sigh... Alas, you are correct, sir. But I think we could find some
selfless volunteers to remedy that situation. Hmmm? (She said, ducking
quickly out of the way of the charging hordes!!) Even if he is looking

~~Annette~~
Sorry to disappoint you here. Mulder may have a degree from Oxford in
psychology, but: 1) it's only a BA. 2) he's not a licenced psychologist,
and therefore that does not make him a psychologist. Just because he's
got a degree, doesn't make him one. He is, however, a criminal profiler,
and he should have been able to use that training.
So yeah, while I kinda agree that that line shouldn't have been used, it's
not because Mulder is not a psychologist. It's because he's got
sufficient other knowledge to use to answer Scully's question.
