As we delve deeper into the X-Files mythology, at last the backstory and motivations of Deep Throat are made clear. Even if the general conspiracy remains murky - either by design or because the writers have by this point still not come up with any answers themselves.
But that doesn't matter. What matters is that we have a reasonably engaging episode that finds Mulder and Scully playing Cloak & Dagger across America, The Lone Gunmen are introduced; and Jerry Hardin is, as usual excellent in all his typically cryptic scenes.
Daniel and I have a short, sweet discussion about all of this and we ponder whether or not "sweeps" are still or can ever be a thing in the modern age of streaming and binge watching TV that you have stocked up on your DVR.
Dig in.
