The X-Files Revival #4

The X-Files Revival #4

Hi everybody, Mary here.

So, here's the fourth review for the X-Files Revival ! I can't even believe that we're already two-thirds of the way through the revival ! It's gonna end so soon and aaaaargh I don't know what I'll do after that.

(Probably start working on my actual lesbian stories, but that's another story, hahaha...)

Anyways, without any further ado, here's the review ! Enjoy !

Home Again

Sad points : they didn't actually solve the case (but do they ever do this ?), Scully's mom is dead, Scully is lost, Mulder is trying to help her as much as he can.

Good points : the parallel between the "band-aid man" and William. Scully believes that she's responsible for leaving her son behind, and she feels very guilty, and (while I hope that these events will bring her back closer to Mulder and they'll end up as a happy family raising their son the way he should have been raised since the beginning).

The thing about their son is that these homeless people are treated like trash, abandonned in places in which they don't want to be, and they are usually forgotten about and never remembered since they were placed in this place.

And Scully feels like she treated her son like trash, abandoning him in a place where he didn't want to be, instead of recieving the care he deserved. She and Mulder are trying to talk about these feelings of creating something, being responsible for it (just like Scully's mother tried to reminder her while calling Charlie, "the son who ran away" but that she still considered her responsibility and she wanted him to know he'll be okay). And now, just like Scully's mother and her son William, Scully wants her own son, also called William, to be okay, even if he can't hear her.

The thing was, Scully's mother thought she would never hear from Charlie again, and when she does, she can finally find peace again. Scully also needs to know her son will be okay, even if he can't see or hear her.

The irony lies in the title of the episode, "Home Again". In the beginning of the episode, Scully begs her mother "not to go home yet". And when she does, it's the end of the story. And she also wants to go home, with her son, and Mulder probably.

And then, finally she will find peace and be home. (Also the parallel about Scully being in the coma herself and then being rescued by Mulder was super cute.)

Anyways, I think that now, Scully wants her son more than ever before, and with the help of Mulder, they'll maybe start looking for him... and in the end, find him ? Being chased by aliens and the government ? The truth will emerge after years of it being buried in lies ?

(Argh if it doesn't happen I will kill a b*tch, seriously.)

Anyways, that's it for this episode ! I really hope you enjoyed it and I'll see you next week for the next review of this amazing revival !

And as usual, our last word : KIDNEYS !!!
