SPOILERS: Semi-random thoughts on Biogenesis... SPOILERS AHEAD.... SPOILERS AHEAD.... SPOILERS AHEAD.... My TOP TWENTY semi-random thoughts on Biogenesis... 1. Diana needs to die. Right now. 2. Where the hell has Diana been, anyway? How come nobody was curious? 3. Anybody besides me think that Skinner tipped off Scully on purpose with his "slip" about her report? And was I imagining things, or did Skinner and TFW share a knowing glance after Scully stalked off? 4. When the African professor first arrived at A.U. and met Dr.-Barnes-pretending-to-be-the-other-professor, one of Dr. Barnes' first few lines is voiced-over (I missed it on the first viewing but caught it on a quick review of the beginning of the ep -- for some reason I was watching his mouth and realized it wasn't in synch with the words). Anybody know what he originally said? Closed captioning didn't help.... 5. I assume that I'm not imagining things here either, and Mulder really =knew= that Scully was there when he screamed her name while staring right into the camera. Do we think Scully will figure it out and start communicating with him telepathically? Hell, she believed the dream in "The Blessing Way," right? Why not this? 6. Speaking of TBW -- hooray for the return of Albert Hosteen! Let him live, let him live, let him live.... if somebody has to die, let it be Diana. Or did I mention that already? 7. Nobody thinks that Mulder really called Diana, right? If he were lying on a floor in agony, he'd call his disbelieving personal physician before he'd call anybody else, right? Even if he weren't in agony, he'd call his one in five billion first, right? And that little striptease was put there to spell it out for us, right? I'm not too pissed off about this whole TFW thing, right? BTW, when she took off her suit jacket, did anybody besides me think "My GOD would you look at the chest on that woman... can that be for real????" 8. I got a big grin out of the use of the FTF footage... :) 9. I =love= Livid!Scully. I will be hearing that beautifully-spoken "liar" in my head until the season 7 premiere. 10. And speaking of =that=, has a tentative season 7 start date been announced? Please tell me we don't have to wait 6 months again. At least last year we had the movie... 11. The end of the ep had me a bit confused. First Scully is brushing sandy water away from another piece of the artifact, and then we can see the whole top of a spaceship? 12. And what was she doing wearing a SUIT to the beach, for God's sakes? 13. With a long skirt? 14. And somebody please tell me that's she's got the Gunmen hacking into the hospital's computers and video cameras to keep an eye on Mulder while she's out of the country or otherwise unavailable. Now that she doesn't trust Skinner, =somebody's= got to be watching her partner... 15. After all this time, you mean to tell me that Mulder and Scully don't check their office for surveillance devices every five minutes? 16. What was the deal with that guy that Scully brought in to their office to show overheads to Mulder? Sorry, I don't recall his name off the top of my head, and the VCR is soooooo far away.... My first take on that scene was that Mulder had a split-second of indignation that Scully had brought in Somebody Else, but then he was OK with it. What did everybody else think? (And, hey, that was a nice variation on the slide projector theme. I guess more and more of Mulder really =is= rubbing off on Scully....) I was a bit confused; was he the "authority" that Skinner mentioned? 17. I gotta admit, more than once during this ep I was thinking "come ON, Scully, just for 30 seconds go with Mulder's idea... consider alternate possibilities... JEEEEEEZ!" 18. But not, for one second, do I really think Mulder called Fowley. Oooh, did I mention that already, too? Sorry. 19. At this moment, Fowley is still alive. I am one UNhappy camper. >:-P 20. I can't wait to read the fanfiction that is sure to come out of this ep... :) Anxiously awaiting all other thoughts, opinions, and reviews... and counting the days until the fall... :: sigh ::
