1X14 - Lazarus

Summary


Is this why people think Dana Scully is such a fascinating (and conflicted) person? She's so straight and narrow and Catholic and yet has this hidden urge to be a "bad girl"? (Hell, don't they all?) She likes to date father-figures? To be honest, if Mulder and Phoebe Green appeared to be an unlikely pairing, this one was even more so. What did they see in one another? There didn't seem to be any spark or attraction between them that would have made a torrid love affair believable. Anyway, the reason for all this back story — the "body jumping soul" — was quite Star Trek-y... and I for one never thought that it worked that well even back then.

Best or Worst Moment


I liked Mulder's "attentiveness" throughout this episode. As I've hinted at in my stories, he always manages to show his concern for and/or interest in Scully without any overt possessiveness or jealousy. There's something pure and elemental about that.

Original Rating: * *
