Terma


(in Russian) I have escaped from the prison camp...

A bit of a letdown after Tunguska, but still legendary. Krycek speaking Russian automatically turns me on, don't know why. He's just so sexy. And full credit goes to Nick Lea for being able to still act when talking in a language not his own, that's gotta not be easy. Although there is one scene which all Rat'niks must hate, otherwise this is good. Mulder punching Krycek in the face and knocking him onto the truck - hmm! Poor Krycek decides that Mulder can't drive for shit, and rolls off the back. A good thing, too, because the brakes are killed and ol' Fox drives off the road.

Why doesn't Ratboy run away in the middle of the night, after the one armed guys catch him? Could have saved his left arm. Quite easily. But he seems to adjust to the prosthetic reasonably quickly, and didn't it look (shudder) realistic? Oh, yuck. Shiny, not-Alex, and FAKE!!!!

Nick, if you're reading, take your left arm, pick up your pistol, and pistol whip Chris Carter over the back of the head, please. He's lost his mind, I guess it's a little too late, but anyvague..

Good episode. I really enjoyed, except for the far-too realistic screams of Alex as they hack off his arm. Great acting, Nick Lea.

Well, Krycek can't put both his arms around Scully now, can he? Four and a half squeaks.
