The X-Files 11x05 Ghouli
Heh, is that the ship I've only just seen on Supernatural?
What, people having sort of shared hallucinations, seeing each other as monsters?
Looks like 11x04 was an outlier with doing nothing with the "the truth is out there".
Wow, are we finally seeing Scully's apartment?
Or not! Hey, I had a sort of dream like that once. Freaky stuff!
Hey, Louis Ferreira in the credits.
So is Scully having visions again? And if so, are they sent by William again?
Ooh, CSM in the credits. Which makes me think William does have something to do with this.
"He believed those visions were messages sent." Interesting!
What's with the focus on the car's computer screen and the tablet? Advertisement or plot point?
Oh, a panicked guy had called 911. William? Does he live there? Was the house we've seen his home?
Hey, that man Scully sees in the distance looks like the doctor from Lost! The one from the Dharma videos. Gah, can't remember the character's name right now.
Haha, "Bob".
VAN DE KAMP! SENT VISIONS! Deffo William, though I can't make sense of Jackson. If it's William, why would he use a different name? Unless the adoptive parents changed his name, which is a weird idea to me because 1. I never considered the possibility and 2. he's had that name for a year already! And why would he date 2 girls at the same time, that dirtbag? If Jackson is a relative, why would he also have supernatural powers?
Ha, that is the van de Kamp house! Hey, but the girlfriends didn't recognize it, so they haven't been there before. Which makes sense, because you'd probably want to hide the fact that you have 2 girlfriends at once from your parents.
I hope they didn't just kill off William's adoptive parents, so he's free to live with Mulder and Scully!
Okay, no mention of another kid living in that household. Maybe these van de Kamps were William's aunt, uncle & cousin.
Scully is looking through their family photos. Looking for William?
It is the Lost doctor!! Wow, I have good eyes sometimes!
"The future belongs to those who prepare for it today." Yeah, so about that vaccine...
Why is Scully cutting of a bit of Jackson's hair? Don't you need the roots to get DNA?
Hey, Scully's confession to the body is great, but I think she's suffering for no reason. As if they'd kill off William before we really got to meet him!
WTF, he's alive! Okay, maybe that is William.
"Don't give up on the bigger picture." Oh, is Dharma Doc a good one?
And we cut from that guy to apparently William's diary and something about dreams (Jesus Christ, who writes so much text all in caps?! What a pain in the ass to read.). Is our Dharma Doc a doctor here too and helped William with dream stuff?
A card of a Doctor Scholz. Oh, is that our Dharma Doc?
Hey, Mulder was right, these guys are DOD. Is William a hacker?
"Mulder, how ist it possible the only updates I've received about what you're doing come through complaints by other agencies in the government?" Haha, poor Skinner.
Ugh, CSM back in Skinner's office!
Or is our Dharma Doc the Dr. Matsumoto that Skinner's talking about? Although it would be a stupid idea to publish books with your picture on them, if you're trying to hide.
Finally we're back on the topic of the vaccine! The way Scully is talking about it makes it sound like William is the key to the vaccine in general, not just for Mulder's. What, has that been her interpretation all along? Is that why she's apparently not prepared the vaccine yet?
Oh, William can make people also see things that aren't visions! So he can't actually come back to life. But why would he make his girlfriends see each other as Ghouli? Doesn't he have control over his power?
Oh, so that's what he looks like! Finally we get a clear view of him. He looks like a little wanker, but that might just be colored by my opinion of him having 2 simultaneous girlfriends.
Maybe I shouldn't constantly pause to type up my questions - here's already the answer to why he made his girlfriends see the Ghouli.
For someone whose beloved parents were just murdered, William seems pretty calm and collected. Ugh, why can't TV and movies sometimes not show appropriate emotional impact when killing off smaller characters?!
Ah, so that's the storytelling reason for William having 2 girlfriends, so one of them would rat him out.
He apologizes to Sarah, but not for having another girlfriend. What a douche.
Like a proper noob, DOD guy 1 takes out his gun and holds it in a way that it's pointing at DOD guy 2. They're so gonna shoot each other. Sure, William is gonna make them see each other as him, but they could even shoot each other without William helping along.
Of course that wasn't Scully.
If Mulder and Scully know that Jackson is there and that he can make people see things, why didn't they think that the woman who's running away could be William?
And if William knew that Scully is is birth mother, why did he run away?
A windmill - if that isn't a sign from William.
Huh, not William, but the doc. Ohhhh, now I get it! That is indeed not Dr. Matsumoto. It's William using the face of the guy from his book! Ah, and there he even says that he's not Matsumoto.
But why is he travelling around the country/hiding? Isn't there a vaccine to develope?! Or did he not see how Scully saw the vision, does he not know that here he has someone trustworthy with the knowledge to make that vaccine?
Oh, I thought those were lyrics, but then Mulder says it's a Malcolm X quote.
Do security camera really have audio?
I wonder if Mulder and Scully took a copy of that tape with them.
