I hadn't realized she kissed him when I saw the episode! That little kiss on the chest when she's lying her head down... And when he closes his eyes and smells her hair.... WHY ARE THEY PERFECT.

[@rochey1010]

Mulder is known for the self deprecating and sarcastic humour. This is a very intense situation and he can see Scully's pain so he tried to lighten it with his comments and it just shows how perfect they are because that's exactly what Scully needed in that moment.

[@eunoil160]

No on-screen couple can ever surpass the romance of these two! They never needed words, kisses... Not the mere physical attraction, but true epic love...

[@xfilesfan01]

This scene is absolutely beautiful. I get emotional when Scully's tears stream down her face and when she reaches over to stroke Mulder's hair. She is so very much in love with Mulder, and he's in love with her. No words were needed; everything was spoken through actions, and I love Doggett for allowing them their privacy here.

[@trustno1xfiles494]

[@micaelamontenegro5350]

+Trustno1 Xfiles Yes. really Mulder tells her I LOVE YOU.

[@defencebangladesh4068]

[@rochey1010]

What's interesting is that Robert Patrick said himself that Doggett has feelings for Scully, and he plays that subtly in his scenes with her, even here when he interrupts and let's Scully have privacy with Mulder. It's this moment he realizes that there's no way Scully can return them, and there is simply no comparison with Mulder. You can see his quiet hurt, yet he still helps her and Mulder, which credit to Doggett for that strength of character. But don't feel bad for Doggett because he gets over his feelings for Scully and starts liking Reyes. Think of them as the beta couple to Mulder/Scully's alpha one.

[@xville82]

I LOVE the way he looks at her. Apparently, Mulder DOES gaze at Scully ;)

[@medi176]

[@tiffanycarter5432]

It was kind of a running joke from the first movie where they'd started debating if she'd scared him with a practical joke she'd pulled.

[@Mia_M]

You can tell how much Mulder truly loves Scully because in the moments when she needs it, he provides a laugh for her. He did in this episode and in The Truth. He just wants to make her smile and worry at the same time.

[@andreitavillanueva5213]

la amaba mucho

[@mira394]

When Mulder said "Who are you?" to Scully she looked so depressed it killed me but when Mulder smiled it just made everything better

[@moviesbooks8665]

She's just so emotional, and it really hits you, and her, that she loves him so much that it's not just him there in the hospital bed, but part of her as well, and it's so heartbreaking and sweet, because if Mulder has the choice, opportunity, or even the slimmest possibility, he'll always come back. Come back to Scully.

[@rochey1010]

and i know how to make this more traumatic for you. Here goes; This is the first time Scully has touched Mulder in so long. She's searched and searched, found him, buried, him and then he resurrected again. Imagine the reunion with knowing Scully threw dirt on his coffin and watched it go into the ground. Imagine Scully realizing she would never see him look at her like that and touch her so tenderly...And then he comes back, and she gets to see him gaze at her, and touch her again. If it's at all possible Scully falls in love all over again right here with Mulder. As for Mulder he was mother fucking abducted by aliens and in a nightmarish torture scenario screaming out for Scully. Imagine the despair and hopelessness that he won't see her again. Get to look at and touch her in the way only he can. That they had a complete relationship before he was taken and not knowing she's carrying his baby from that love...and then he opens his eyes and she's there. He can see her and touch her and smell her( guh he presses his face into her hair at the end). If it's at all possible Mulder also falls in love all over again with Scully. Did that work? LOL Also Doggett sees this, the depth of that love, that devotion and connection. It's only a few seconds and he sees just why Scully was resolute in bringing Mulder back to her. He sees a love he can only hope to find himself. His quiet hurt, disappointment and gentle respect at the end shows not only his realization that Scully is incapable of returning his hidden feelings but just what's missing in his own life.

GA is a heartbreaker when she cries, I think it's cause Scully is always going to be a bit restrained, even when emotional, it just seems so much sadder with the quiet held back crying.

[@BatmanFanGirl]

Yeah it was interesting in the show how traditional emotional values were switched for Mulder and Scully. Mulder cried all the time so when he cried I was like oh okay. But when she cried I was like oh man this is really sad because she held her emotions in so much more.

[@BABYCOOKIE918]

[@Jennafu832]

I think it took me a minute to realize Mulder was kidding... It sort of ruined it for those who were waiting on the edge of our seats for Mulder to wake up. For those few months before DD came back to the show, I was agonizing over his abduction in much the same way as Scully. CC probably thought that line suited Mulder well (and it did), but it sure as hell scared the living crap out of the rest of us. I know it was only for a split second, but that's all the time it took for me to go balistic.

[@gkgyver]

This is why I love the show so much. Scenes like these could so easily be corny or over the top. But they just aren't.

[@RachelParker-1977]

0:47 That's something that my late husband would've asked me. He enjoyed teasing me. These two are the best actors.

[@bigficfan]

I cried *so* hard during this episode when Scully first arrived at the hospital and stepped in the room finding Mulder hooked on life support. When she laid her hand on his chest to feel him breathing and that it was truly him and not a dream... With that gorgeous music playing in the background, I remember cring like a baby. I still get emotional every time I see it. It was such a powerful scene and if you weren't sure if these two loved eachother before, you sure as hell knew after that scene.

[@Jennafu832]

How many people here actually watched this episode when it aired? I remember sitting in front of my parents' tv in their bedroom (they were watching a football game in the living room, so I had to watch X-Files in the privacy of my parents' room). When Mulder said, "Who are you?", I think I may have whispered, "No..." All this time! No Mulder for almost an entire season, then FINALLY, Mulder comes back and he doesn't even remember who Scully is?!?! In that moment, I wanted to kill Chris Carter.

[@Jennafu832]

Both mothers had to sacrifice their *sons for the greater good. Mary had to sacrifice Jesus in order for God's plan of grace to work. Scully didn't get to see William grow up, but she actually sacrificed him as an infant so that he would not be in continued danger. The Bible has many examples of mothers/fathers sacrificing their infants/children for the greater good: Abraham and Isaac, Yocheved and Moses, Soloman's story about a baby with a mother who willingly gave him up, Hannah and Samuel...

[@veronica4382]

Love this scene

[@Jennafu832]

Has anyone noticed how this story relates to the Gospel of Jesus? Jesus was born of a woman whose pregnancy was miraculous, as was Scully's. Both Jesus and Mulder came back to life/rose again, one after 3 days and the other after 3 months. Both William and Jesus were born in a less-than-traditional setting. Mulder found William by following a light. The wisemen found Jesus by following a star. Both babies' lives were in danger. Both mothers had to sacrifice their babies for the greater good.

[@cprw10]

@@architectofdreams73 I think was because of William's absence, Mulder kind of reverted to his "darkness" (Samantha missing mode) that Scully once mentioned like that was his "darkness" that she was afraid that Mulder revert to it. They both dealt their pain of not having William with them in different ways, sometimes when couples lose a child (child's death, kidnap or simply bc it's no longer with them) they divorce or leave their partner, not because they no longer love their couple (bc Scully and Mulder still love each other) but because been with them is a more painful reminder of the child they no longer have with them.. But now by the end of 11th season she is really pregnant of Mulder and everything points out that they'll be back together as a couple. *Although I honestly like to take the end of season 8 as the canonical end of the series, the series ending with them together as a couple with baby William. They as a happy family. And William being Mulder and Scully's biological son,* NOT that crap that crap that CC created more than 10 years after about William not being Mulder's biological son but being The smoke man's son; such a disgusting decision. *Sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language.*

Doggett resisted the attempt to save Mulder until Skinner forced the issue and he did it because he was keen on Scully. Mulder being back would have messed up any chance he might have had with her. NEVER forgave him for that, scumbag move. Thank God, Skinner did the right thing.

I think it was always very clear that Doggett had feelings for Scully, but he was never a threat to Mulder with regard to Scully's love for him. Personally, I love to imagine the story from Doggett's perspective. Here he is, this lonely guy, a skeptic, and he can't understand why Scully, also once a skeptic, comes to believe in Mulder. By the end, he gets it.
