Jessica and Dini travel back to May 18, 1997! Join us as we discuss our top 5 favorite moments from S4 EP24, Gethsemane. This episode was written by Chris Carter and directed by R.W. Goodwin. 

The discovery of a preserved extraterrestrial corpse in the Canadian mountains leads Mulder to believe it could be the ultimate proof of his life's work.

However, the narrative is flipped when a Department of Defense employee named Michael Kritschgau informs Mulder that the body—and the entire concept of aliens—is a massive government hoax designed to distract from terrestrial military conspiracies. The episode is framed by a dying Scully testifying before some FBI big wigs, where she ultimately announces that Mulder has taken his own life.
