What an exciting episode. Mulder rekindles a relationship with an old flame he once went to college with at Oxford. In fact, we learn a lot about Mulder in this episode, including that he’s got a phobia of fire and that he has a photographic memory (two traits that are never brought up in theContinue reading “01 x 12: Fire”

01 x 11: Eve
*All prices mentioned are in 2021 values We begin the episode in a quant neighborhood in Greenwich Connecticut on 11/7/1993. A little girl stops a couple and shows them that her father is dead. He’s found in their backyard on their swing set completely drained of blood. This episode later reveals that his own youngContinue reading “01 x 11: Eve”
01 x 10: Fallen Angel
This episode as far as expenses are concerned is slightly above average this season at a budget of approximately $8,152.15 in today’s money. Some money was completely wasted due to onAgent Mulder’s negligence and carelessness. His most costly error in this episode was delaying his and agent Scully’s return flight to DC for a hearing at the Office ofContinue reading “01 x 10: Fallen Angel”
01 x 09: Space
Thank goodness for Scully and Mulder and their investigative prowess in this episode as they prevent a catastrophic failure from taking place on a harrowing NASA funded space adventure. Short of becoming astronauts themselves and flying off into space, these agents performed admirably in one of the greatest and memorable X-Files adventures yet! More importantly, they stuckContinue reading “01 x 09: Space”
01 x 08: Ice
So this episode is the second most expensive to date as far as we are concerned with Mulder and Scully’s expenses. Was this case worth the expense? Not really, especially when you consider their actions nearly led to a worldwide pandemic way worse than COVID. The episode opens with a video clip from 11/05/1993 (aContinue reading “01 x 08: Ice”
01 x 07: Ghost in the Machine
So… this episode takes place in and around DC. And because of that, it’s not a super extravagant case. BUT, that doesn’t mean Mulder and Scully didn’t waste taxpayer money. The annoying thing with this case is that Mulder and Scully drive lot of short distance trips. I put quite a bit of effort toContinue reading “01 x 07: Ghost in the Machine”
01 x 06: Shadows
One To-day is worth two to-morrows. This is something the writers of “shadows” want us to know, but it’s also something that has nothing to do with this episode. It also relates to the fact that this episode has plot holes and a timeline that doesn’t make sense. Why do I bring this up? Well,Continue reading “01 x 06: Shadows”
01X05: Jersey Devil
I hate this episode. Though something tells me when I get to season 8 and 9 I’ll look back wanting episodes of this caliber. But of the classic episodes this is one of the worst. The episode starts off in New Jersey in 1947 with a family on a road trip singing “Bingo was hisContinue reading “01X05: Jersey Devil”
01 x 04: Conduit
Right off the bat with this case we see that Mulder has spent no time wasting money. He has sent a form 302 to Blevins which is apparently a form where you request money or a budget for a case. To the best of my knowledge there isn’t really a form like this, but itContinue reading “01 x 04: Conduit”
01 x 03 SQUEEZE
1X03 Squeeze This episode takes place between 7/22/1993 and 7/25/1993 Now on this assignment it doesn’t appear Dana and Fox are extravagant in their spending habits. However, and I will address these specific issues when I come to them, their reporting is most likely inaccurate in this case. At one point, Fox makes a 46Continue reading “01 x 03 SQUEEZE”
