Pusher - S3-E17

Corrected entry: When Modell "talks" Burst to death, the cops in the room stop Mulder and Scully from disconnecting the call. You would think that two FBI Agents would hold rank over local PD Officers on any case.

Correction: They are his men, it only makes sense that they would listen to him instead of 2 Feds.

The Walk - S3-E7

Corrected entry: When Lt. Col. Stans tries to kill himself by submerging himself in boiling water using the hydrotherapy tub, he sets the gauge to 200 (where it stays). The water boils as planned, but water doesn't boil that low. This takes place in Maryland; assuming an elevation of 3,360 feet, water shouldn't boil until 206°. (00:01:25)

Correction: That's not the water boiling, it's the massaging jets of the hydrotherapy tub (like a Jacuzzi or hot tub).

Bishop73

Correction: Agent Mulder's brief mention of his condition reveals nothing of its severity. Colourblind people can become FBI agents if they can pass the Farnsworth D15 test.

Paper Clip (3) - S3-E2

Visible crew/equipment: When Mulder and Scully enter the abandoned mine through a doorway, the viewer can see at right in the distance a number of people sitting on a wall, and one crouching in front of the wall with what looks like a dog. They are sitting still, but there is still movement there. (00:16:00)
