Great episode that answers many lingering questions.

Was great to see another side of CSM a man in light of mulders death he seemed to change his attitude towards mulder. He becomes somewhat of a father figure. He reveals many mysteries to mulder to gain his trust. But mulder refuses to submit and it seems CSM paid the price for his outreach with a sniper bullet. I think he survived and will pop up later in the season.

Would love to hear more about Rousch and how deep it runs with the syndicates plan and how many more fbi/Dod members it had in their payroll. Also who runs the company? I'm assuming it's the first elder who gave the order for CSM to be shot. Looking forward to see how the plan unfolds.

Scully can now attribute her cancer healing to either the trip or prayer. I think she'll go with the prayer reason as science and religion are the only lenses she can perceive the world through.

I'm surprised mulder took a wild guess on the FBI Rousch and was right :S. It seemed to have taken right off the hook. Not sure how mulder will casually bounce back though let's see.

Overall great episode that continues the main arc of the story.
