Redux I and Redux II inherit their own problems. Kinda boring episode but the second episode in my opinion was really terrible, but I hope next episodes in season 5 are getting better. In contrast, Redux I lacks the same sense of intimacy or energy. The episode slows down considerably, allowing the audience's scepticism to kick into gear. Instead, the show indulges in Chris Carter's purplest prose, as Mulder and Scully go on and on and on about the emotional consequences of their pursuit of the truth. Kritschgau sits opposite Mulder and tells him that this is all a plot to justify defence budgets, there are any number of counter-arguments that Mulder and Scully could make.
While they may not know that the Alien Bounty Hunter is alien in origin, the fact that he can change his face and dissolves into a pile of toxic green sludge suggests that this whole secret plot to rule the world might have more to it than the number of zeroes appearing in the Defence Department budget. Really not my favorite episode a lot better than Part II.
