take Scully from Mulder and he becomes a total mess. Duchovney was phenomenal showing this side of Mulder's character in Season 2. Mulder doesn't sleep, is consumed and grieving with major stubble and a disheveled look. But it's so much more than appearance. he really captured a person who has lost his lodestone and is drowning in guilt and loss. IMO this is where you see just how much Mulder loves Scully and it's Samantha all over again. Jesus the abduction arc was so moving and really spun the show on it's head. What's interesting here though is that CSM really makes you believe his words and is why this show was one of the greatest on television because it was incredibly deep.
Mulder no es un desastre sin Scully .... Pero no estaría completo.
When Mulders voice cracks saying "why her?" ... all the feels! 😍
CSM always had perverse obsession with Scully because he wants to posses and destroy everything Mulder has and loves. I think Mulder was aware of his fixation on Scully, that's why his protection instincts go on red whenever CSM mentions Scully. In season 11, CSM obsession had gone so far that his goal was to kill both Mulder and Scully so he could possess their son. Because if he can't have Scully, then no one can. This particular scene in One Breath, gave the first climpse of his fixation on Scully. CSM always planned to get Mulder and Scully to conceive William so he could possess him as his.
CSM: "I'm in the game because I believe what I'm doing is right."
Mulder (with a gun in his face): Right? Who are you to decide what's right?
CSM: Who are you?
Smart writers.
Indeed.
David Duchovny is so underrated. There were a couple episodes in the X-Files where he gave performances I thought were a little "meh," but he ALWAYS brought his A-game in episodes like this, where they gave him juicy emotional stuff to work with. I also think he made a lot of subtle acting choices over the years that are easy to overlook if you're not watching closely.
His anger acting was always A grade, but it was his grief acting that improved massively over the years. Compare him crying to his dad in Endgame about losing Samantha to him hearing of his mothers death in Sein und Zeit/Closure, massive, massive improvement.
"No wife. No kids."
Hmm.
"Trust No One"
He has two kids mulder is one but it wasn't written at the time.
ok, that would explain why he doesnt kill the smoking guy ?
likes hes ovbiously is going to tell his son that he has had a wife and a son.
Mhhhh are Jeffrey and Fox familiar to you CSM?
How cool is CSM at the end? He deflects Mulder's comments, totally ignores the gun pointed at him and simply lights up another cigarette as if to say 'I win, you lose'...
He has nothing to loose.
One of the best scenes ever in a television drama!
CSM is Mulders father.
David and Gillian are phenomenal in this episode. Protective Mulder is the best! :)
Gillian didn't do anything in this one.
+007robotchicken I meant to say in this season (second season Gillian could have won an Emmy, I thought). My bad...I was up all night. Is this 'Ascension?'
One Breath.
To Mulder, the only one person who really matter in the world, is Scully. From the moment they met. Scully is his life, if you take her from him, he has not life anymore. That's why he is so protective, respectful and sweet with her, he doesn't want to lose her for any reason in the world. Like once he said to Scully "You are my one in five billion"
@@elisagiambartino3483 "That's why he is so protective, respectful and sweet with her" Estas romantizando el asunto. Si bien Scully es una pieza vital( persona) para Fox ... Este no es Dulce exactamente. Le tiene alta estima y consideración. Pero su atención en ella no es de Protector. O Receloso. Es más bien de Cuidado. Porque siempre ha dejado que ella tome decisiones difíciles en real peligro. Lo de Dulce ... Es más pobre todavía.
Mulder no es del tipo DULCE en general.
Fun fact: The original lease agreement for CSM's apartment had a "no smoking" clause. The apartment complex was then bought out by a private organization days after he moved in...
It was the "Syndicate" that purchased the complex.
"Who are you to decide who's right?"
"Who are you?"
The bane of humanity's existence.
I almost think CSM cares more for Mulder than Spender. Mulder had the guts to stand up to him and never back down in his beliefs. He kept searching for the truth. He could be ruthless in his approach, which I don't know if that could be attributed to his biological father or not. While I am no fan of CSM, I can appreciate fine acting. It sort of breaks the heart when you realize that Mulder is already in love at this point. He probably doesn't consciously realize it himself, but he knows that a huge part of himself is missing. Scully really is the one who pushes him to continue in his journey for the truth and supports and follows him no matter. I think her monologue in the last episode shows how much she believed in him.
CSM will never win any awards for father of the year because ultimately he's selfish and cares for no one but himself. All of his actions are self serving, and he doesn't care who gets hurt in the long run.
There was another great scene where Mulder held CSM at gunpoint, but I can't remember which episode.
Mulder: "You're gonna smoke that? Or you wanna smoke on this?" (pulls a gun on CSM)
CSM: "Are you giving me a choice?" =)
It was "Talita Cumi" the last episode of the 3rd season. In the scene at hospital corridor, where Mulder met CSM. Really great scene ;-)
Gold
@@lami7904 CSM just didn't give a fuck did he? The only people he feared or got him even remotely flustered were the Syndicate.
XD in at least one episode a season mulder has a gun at someone with that "You sick son of a bitch" and it's priceless
Excellent episode One Breath. Desperate Mulder and unfeeling arrogant Cancerman.
He's lucky that trigger wasn't sensitive.
First two seasons of X-Files are some of the best sci-fi writing ever. Morgan and Wong were awesome. Quality started slowly diminishing after they left.
Strongly disagree. Seasons 1 and 2 were okay but 4-6 were amazing.
@@fadedneverland6091 Everything after season 3 were "pop culture-for the masses" episodes. Not really hardcore sci-fi like the earlier stuff. But to each his own.
@@afrose71 This is true for the "mythology" part. However, there were excellent standalone episodes in seasons 4,5 and 6 as well.

Who are we to decide what's right?
No matter the choices or thoughts we make, according to our logic and reasoning, theres always a better way.
Thats why doing nothing is better than making 1000 choices everyday, for example.
First time I saw Mulder pointing at CSM with his Gun. The other two were on "One Son" and the other on "My Struggle"
gerardo lopez another is in the episode "Talitha Cumi".
One of the X Files best scenes.
I think Mulder felt bad for him when he told his life story and that is why he did not kill him.
No its because he didn't want CSM's respect, and he got it and that threw him off. Also, despite everything, he wanted the truth, about what happened to Scully, not to mention Samantha.
Yeah it's what George said, Mulder was taken aback by CSM's words. "I'm nothing like you" and to hear admiration from him is repulsive. Also CSM is playing with Mulder's head here, he's using reverse psychology and at this very moment Mulder is basically a wreck. Scully is dying and he's consumed with rage and guilt. He's desperate for a target for that pain and is on a vengeance mission. He's essentially defeated by CSM's words.
wow !! i love Mulder in this episode !!
amazing acting here! very profound scene.
i
Ah...family...
I have a hard time connecting this CSM who is sitting alone and watching TV with no family as the guy who covers up for the conspiracy to the CSM who is a power mad lunatic that wants to wipe out humanity simply because he can in "My Struggle III."
Also, calling it "My Struggle" is just tasteless and crass.
I look at it as the Smoking Man had survived death so many times and had been forsaken by anyone ever connected to him - all he has is power and cigarettes. He becomes a true monster by series end. I prefer his earlier season appearances when he was a quiet, shadowy figure with mysterious motivations and lots of nuance that showed different sides of his character.
He was burned to a crisp in season 9, we can just pretend the reboot was a clone or something.
*gasp* a very intense scene
Isn't that Mulder's..... Ya know...?
Csm the original illusive ma
Good choice. Awesome scene!
pissed much?
Yalniz son bolum de uzay gemisi geliyor dizi bitti hep benim kedim her pazar yukarda adam oturuyordu iki kisi misafir gelirdi benim kedi gelmezdi birde onu hatirlarim
