The episode was simultaneously ponderous and comically accelerated. The former
because it was laced with Chris Carter's most heavy-handedly portentous
dialogue, and with lots of doom and gloom from Our Heroes that seemed largely
unearned. (The last time 
we saw Mulder and Scully, they were happily rowing into the sunset. Quick, hit
reset!) The latter because the story seemed to pack an entire season's worth
of psychological movement into a single hour: Mulder intrigued, Scully
skeptical; Mulder 
passionate, Scully annoyed and worried; Mulder suddenly concluding that
everything they know is wrong, Scully mournfully concluding he's off his
rocker; Mulder chastened by the vicious opposition of the conspirators, Scully
finally convinced the fight is 
worth the risk; both members of the duo recommitted to the X-Files!

My first post to this group was about 20 years ago. I haven't posted anything
to any part of Usenet for several years, but I felt a strange obligation to at
least acknowledge "Season 10."
