3X20When Scully is interviewed by famous author, Jose Chung about a recent case involving alien abduction, she has to try to make sense of the incidents that happened for the new book he is writing.

The truth is, it's very hard to make any sense out of it at all. There's different versions of the same story, bizarre actions, weird stories that everyone keeps telling, aliens being abducted by aliens and at the end of it all, Jose Chung just thinks, what the hell was that all about? He doesn't know whether the case actually involved aliens or just government misinformation, or whether the whole thing is true anyway. Just watch and try to make sense of it all.

Rating: 8 out of 10
Yet again, Darin Morgan gives us another really funny, well scripted episode to watch. This time though, a lot of thinking is involved to try to make sense of what is going on which makes it all the more fun to watch. Again, he includes a lot of in-jokes making the whole thing better and the acting is great by all the guest stars and especially Gillian and David, who seems to enjoy comedic acting more than his serious roles.
Nitpicking
It's amazing that this complicated episode doesn't contain one minor problem. Darin must have worked for a long time on the script.
