It started by telling us the previous season was all just Scully's premonitions. It was a weak plot escape that was disturbing at first. So Mulder has to rush off to find cigarette smoking man (CSM) and prevent him from doing what Scully portends. Therein we find that SCM's plan to kill of humanity has begun and some of his former partners are out to stop him. Meanwhile Scully's son holds the key as an alien-human hybrid. And while we assumed Mulder was the father it turns out CSM is the dad.
A lot of twists but the tension was maintained throughout most of the episode. And it's set up that this plot line will be put on the shelf as the dynamic duo go back to the usual X-fare while waiting for further developments on this episode's theme. Can't they just do an entire season of this plot line, which is of main interest to most of the fans?
