* CourtroomEpisode{{Cliffhanger}}: Marita is silently stopped by Mulder from revealing all Super Soldiers' identities, to protect her from the government officials who would kill her if she did this. Unfortunately, this means that there is still no concrete evidence for any government conspiracy to clear Mulder's name. She leaves, and the final shot of the episode is Mulder's vacant stare into the distance, as if he's accepting his impending death.
* CourtroomEpisode: This entire episode revoles around Fox Mulder being held on trial due to him breaking and entering a top secret military base, as well as seemingly killing a military man.
