But you are all making me want to see it again.

One main objection I had was Scully's attitude in the beginning. It didn't sound right for her to gripe about being on an ordinary stakeout. It's usually Mulder who complains when he's not challenged enough and wants to do more X-Filey things. Scully is always the trooper who does her assignment without objection. So I thought that seemed off.

The phone calls were ok bu I couldn't help comparing them to the great WOTC calls. Maybe I shouldn't compare them to the number one 'M&S phone calls' episode. Too much for other eps to live up to!

It was interesting how Mulder was in this nice neighborhood while Scully was in sleaze town and the nice area ended up being the evil place. A bit like Arcadia in that respect.

Yes it does seem like we are being led down a certain path with Mulders life, but even as far ahead of you as we are with Serason 8 I'm still not sure what's up yet! I hope CC knows what he's doing. And even as the fencesitters/noromos that we are, I guess we want Mulder and Scully to be happy in whatever form that may take.

all things definately did seem like Scully was taking stock in her life and had perhaps made some important, monumental decisions about it. I was frankly surprised that GA was allowed to write an episode that might be so life altering for Scully. CC and FS seem like only they are allowed to write anything that will effect the myth arc. I look forward to hearing more of your comments on it. I did a test post on this board and it seems to be ok. Is it working for you?
