The season finale, part 1 of 2. To be continued in season 7.

Plotwise here's what I have for now. Mulder is admitted into a hospital in New Mexico with bizarre symptoms. These may stem from a strange artifact a doctor finds (this doctor believes in something called "Panspermia" which is the belief that life originated on Mars). A colleague of his has alterior motives with regards to the artifact.

The character of Albert Hosteen was last seen in "Paper Clip". Nice to see him back but don't get attached to him, he'll be killed off.

In news more disturbing to me than anything I've heard this year, I've been told that Skinner betrays Mulder and Scully :-( Maybe he's just ticked at his limited role this season and fighting back! Seriously

though, with Krycek's appearance (very small), I'm sure this ties in with the nanotechnology from "S.R. 819". While I can't speak for what the Big Boys have in store for him next season, I can assure you Skinner will not be killed off this season, just so you know.

Actor Bill Dow will be a familiar face, he's appeared as Dr. Charles Burks in "Leonard Betts", Dr. Newton in "War Of The Coprophages", Dr. Charles Burk in "The Calusari" and Dad in "Jersey Devil". That Dr. Charles Burk(s) must be an injoke of some sort!

Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear--not absence of fear. Except a
creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave; it is merely
a loose misapplication of the word. Consider the flea!--incomparably the
bravest of all the creatures of God, if ignorance of fear were courage.
Whether you are asleep or awake he will attack you, caring nothing for the fact
that in bulk and strength you are to him as are the massed armies of the earth
to a sucking child; he lives both day and night and all days and nights in the
very lap of peril and the immediate presence of death, and yet is no more
afraid than is the man who walks the streets of a city that was threatened by
an earthquake ten centuries before. When we speak of Clive, Nelson, and Putnam
as men who "didn't know what fear was," we ought always to add the flea--and
put him at the head of the procession.
Mark Twain, "Pudd'nhead Wilson's Calendar"
