It would seem that Cancer Man is Fox Mulder's Father...

All the evidence in the episode points to this conclusion...

So, what do you people think???

By accusing his mother of lying about "choosing" between him and his
sister, Mulder showed that another person had the "decision." And when
we watched the beginning of the episode, we see Cancer man in the
hallway telling Fox, "you little spy." And even later... we see Cancer
man holding Fox's sister...

So, in my opinion, Mulder is the son of Cancer man...

I think you guys should stop posting in all caps and using triple
quotation marks so that I can tell Scully Lover from all the other
boring trolls.

Another possiblity is....Cancer Man is SAMATHA'S father....and that is
why she is taken...and why he has sort of (in a very odd government
sorta way) watched out for Mulder so many time. Just my .02 cents.

You read my mind stranger! I totally agree with you!

The Cigarette Smoking man had an affair with Mulder's mother. Samantha
was the outcome of the union.

CSM wanted to protect Samantha from the "experiments" being performed or
from the likelyhood that she will be a victim just like Scully was. So,
he had his daughter abucted or taken away for protection. (Obviously the
"Mulder's mother had to choose between fox and samantha" kinda get
thrown here)

Why wouldn't it be plausible that he would want to protect that his
child?

So, that flashback scene was the scene of confrontation between CSM,
Mulder's DAD, and mom as to whose child Samantha was. CSM being the
father could be justified by the several flashbacks of CSM's and
Samantha's embrace.

No one wanted Fox to know of his mother's betrayal...hence the
abuduction...little did anyone know that it would turn him into the
man/boy he is.

.....any takers?

Of course, all of those flashbacks could have been induced by that drug
that was administered to Mulder by Dr. Goldstein(sp?).

Wouldn't it make more sense, that the reason CSM wathes what Fox is up to
is because he IS Fox's father? And if he wasn't Fox's father, what would
Mrs. Mulder have to hide from Fox???

what EVIDENCE? Mulder's flashback may or may NOT be "real," and even
then they're open for interpretation. There's no inescapable conclusion.

0.02 cents is very worthless indeed. It's 2/10000 of a dollar. Surely you
meant $ .02, or two cents.

Yes it does seem that way but then that would be way too Luke
Skywalkerish so I hope it's not. I'm hoping for something more unique
(ok, read original).

Ah, but you're forgetting - the Luke Skywalker thing is based on ancient
archetypes. The whole unknown father/evil within/redemption/resurrection
stuff has been along much longer than Shakespeare, Sophocles and the
authors of the bible. George Lucas is merely the latest in a string of
good storytellers to tap into our collective subconscious with those
themes.

I, for one, am content to sit back and enjoy the roller coaster 1013 and
Co have been running, and I feel that if anyone can make this story
compelling, it'll be CC. Of course, if he makes it suck, I will be
unhappy.

The cigarette smoking man is the father of Mulder's sister.
By the way, he no longer has cancer.

The Smoking Man is for sure Fox's dad or at least in control of his
destiny. Also, I don't think it's too obvious to some who watch, so it
is a very likely conclusion on our part.

So . . . now if someone's real father isn't his real father we trace the
origins back to STAR WARS? Ugh. Give me a break! You might want to
check out Sophocles' OEDIPUS THE KING (or OEDIPUS REX).
