The X-Files episode is a fan favorite, with lots of riffs on the antiquated game style consisting of "navigating through an Instagram feed" and brief full motion video transitions, as well as the show and its characters. But this episode is mainly remembered for its unexpected sudden ending.
Quotes
Ryon: "We're gonna solve some crimes. I dunno, I mean, nothing in the X-Files could be considered a crime, specifically. You know, like alien invasion's not really a crime. Mulder was like the FBI equivalent of the guy in Office Space with the red stapler. Like, they don't know why he's employed there. He just has like an office in the basement and they just pay him. Can you imagine Mulder's annual performance review?"
Felicia: "No, there would be no performance review."
Ryon: "'Let's see how your goals lined up with your achievements, Fox. I'm thinking we need a little improvement here in the crime solving.'"
Felicia: "He got a degree in murder boards. You know, just doing string, string to string, string to string."
Ryon: "That is an art form. The local Michael's, like constantly out of twine. Like, 'Sorry, the FBI just bought us out of twine this week.'"
Ryon: "There's been a crime at the wooden pallet warehouse."
