Her mother makes a headstone after TWO EPISODES. Even if you stretch it the largest bounds of logical sense, that maybe it could have been MONTHS during those 2 episodes, it's still only MONTHS she's been missing, and she's already making a headstone.
So it seems Scully has been experimented on with alien DNA. So the people in charge left her at a hospital after they were finished... WITH EVIDENCE OF ALIEN DNA EXPERIMENTATION... No, that does not make sense. This organization was fanatical about not letting any of that kind of evidence get out into the public, and especially not to someone like Mulder (or the medical techs in the hospital) to figure out what's been done to her in regards to experimentation, DNA manipulation, and alien DNA mixing.
This organization knows she is going to die soon because of what they've done, so they RELEASE her back anyway, instead of killing her. And then later there is even more a lack of common sense when the smoking man supposedly kept her alive because he "liked her"
I didn't remember the writing of The X Files becoming so mixed. Or at least this early.
Although the setup to this storyline was faulty, the resulting execution works for the most part in this episode, as we see the jounrney and inner turmoil of Mulder. It wasn't enough in my view, we didn't get enough answers and he didn't go far enough, though he did go pretty far. Maybe it was the right decision in the end, as his inner emotional core might not be able to stomach or live with some of the things he might have done.
The episode works for the most part because of the depth presented and the dramatic events that unfold. Seeing Mulder's journey was riveting.
