Don’t forget she’s a medical doctor who’s awesome at anything remotely medicine related! Er, even if it’s what she didn’t study.

Didn’t know that and didn’t mean to sound insensitive, but I do think his “condition” was used to some advantage in this and other shows.

My favorite Expert!Scully moments: recognizing the Navajo code in “Anasazi”, identifying the P-51 Mustang sunken fighter plane in “Piper Maru”, driving a boat in “Quagmire” and delivering a child in “Agua Mala”. She’s so awesome.

Seasons four and five really were the high point of the show, before it got completely lost in its own mythology and forgot that the best episodes were mostly monster-of-the-week ones. People talk about Doug Hutchison putting in the best MOTW performances as Eugene Tooms, but I think Pruitt Vince as Jerry Schnauz overshadows him, both in terms of writing and Vince’s performance.

It’s not my absolute favorite episode of the show, but I’d only put it behind “Kaddish,” “Agua Mala,” and the two Universal horror movie send ups.

“Hogan’s Heroes” would be my guess.

One of my fave eps…shows Scully getting creeped out by the lobotomies like a “normal” person would react (similar to how she reacts to Pfaster).
