Written by the show's regular writer Frank Spotnitz. The internal date puts the story at 2008, though this contrasts Spotnitz' statement that the series takes place between seasons 2 and 5. This also can't be true as Scully and Mulder are no longer FBI agents in 2008. Month and day listed are my own. |
(Assuming the 1991 date is actually 1981): 5/17/98 – 5/19/98 |
