Release Reviews

I love Doggett as a character and like Mulder's Samantha, Luke has always haunted John with that same guilt.

The cadet is seriously creepy and wonderfully acted. Probably psychic, he seems to have a gift with violent death, seeing things and making the kind of deductive leaps that made Mulder famous as a profiler. The FBI's screening process must be pretty flimsy that he was able to get into the academy.

I must admit I am very disappointed about Brad. I always liked him and there are times he's helped with no agenda and to find out he's dirty, I had hoped he would be more like Skinner, a potential ally. He did Doggett a favour killing his son's killer but has probably destroyed his career and will face criminal charges. He shot an unarmed man in the street in front of witnesses, there's no getting away from that. Suggests how desperate Brad was that he'd be so stupid about it, there's a dozen better ways he could have done it and gotten away with it. I hope he's not out of the series, I really do like him.

A fascinating case, such a simple explanation for a child's death: wrong place, wrong time.

When whatching this episode you instantly know from the beginning it's going to be another classic story. Very carefully the plot ties into the other episode which dealt with the death of Agent John Doggett's son. I like the fact they they took three different episodes and moulded them into this one story. This is a mind bender story where you really need the back up eps to understand this one. Acted brilliantly by all parties and the story written stupendously. Episodes like this, that challange your thinking and intellect are why this one in particular is definatly worth watching. As well as a bit of insight into the Doggett/Reyes relationship!

This was a very touching episode. Its very sad that Doggett lost his son but finally he gets the release that he deserved the truth about his sons death. I absolutly loved this episode, also in this episode Brad gets into deep crap when it is revealed that he has ben taking bribes. The endig of this episode where Doggett and his ex-wife throw their sons ashes in the sea almost made me cry. Only three episodes left of the X Files. Really enjoyed the storyline. Agent Doggett really is a great charator. This episode was very well writeen and is amoung my favourites of season 9.
