Oh dear, it seems Samantha Mulder also bleeds Baja (read:green goo) and isn’t Samantha Mulder at all. We will have to wait on that game of Stratego. :( 

In better news, Daddy Skinner and Daddy X trade head butts in the elevator — the closest you can *get* to smooching without using your lips!

It’s S2E17: End Game, and we encourage you to bring your parka and your little mittens.

Producer LaToya Ferguson gives this episode a scary ranking of 1.05/5 Orders From My Ophthamologist
