Let me back off from all this slamming. Too little attention was paid to this one. Rule 1 disobeyed. Mr. Amann aspires to structure. Structure requires the characters to do things, to struggle against obstacles, to learn what is going, to take consequent action.
Structure is a beginning, a middle and an end.
Rush had this. Mulder's quantum leaps were not overly quantum. Scully's analyses were not too evasive. Rule 2 obeyed. Well, the wonderbra'ed speed babe might have been 18, I suppose, maybe, barely, which passes the important legal threshold.
