1
00:00:01,420 --> 00:00:02,790
I know you think I'm crazy.

2
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:04,460
But it's not me.

3
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:06,360
It's the world.

4
00:00:06,990 --> 00:00:08,530
The world's gone mad.

5
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:10,820
Because...

6
00:00:10,860 --> 00:00:12,790
because Martians have invaded, but...

7
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,170
nobody seems to care!

8
00:00:16,210 --> 00:00:18,010
Take it easy, mister.

9
00:00:18,830 --> 00:00:20,340
Have a cup of joe.

10
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:25,290
I can't take it easy.

11
00:00:25,910 --> 00:00:27,600
I just saw one outside.

12
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:29,670
So, tell me,

13
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:31,940
what do these Martians look like?

14
00:00:32,130 --> 00:00:35,210
They... have giant heads

15
00:00:35,250 --> 00:00:37,000
and multiple appendages.

16
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:38,360
Yikes.

17
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,670
And they're,
here to eat us or something?

18
00:00:40,710 --> 00:00:44,010
No. They have a ray of some kind...

19
00:00:44,410 --> 00:00:45,680
that makes us...

20
00:00:46,450 --> 00:00:47,680
forget.

21
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:49,150
Forget what?

22
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,280
- There! I just saw one.
- Where?

23
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,350
Outside through that window.
I just saw one of 'em.

24
00:00:54,390 --> 00:00:56,760
Hey, mister.

25
00:00:56,790 --> 00:01:00,130
That ain't a window. That's a mirror.

26
00:01:20,750 --> 00:01:22,280
What is this,

27
00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:24,880
some kind of sick joke, Buddy?

28
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:29,290
It's no joke.

29
00:01:32,090 --> 00:01:34,590
And my name's not Buddy.

30
00:01:34,630 --> 00:01:37,060
Wait, what?!

32
00:02:19,410 --> 00:02:20,770
Hello.

33
00:02:20,810 --> 00:02:22,780
Mulder, it's me.
Where have you been?

34
00:02:22,810 --> 00:02:24,440
I've been trying your cell all day.

35
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:25,910
I was out squatchin'.

36
00:02:25,950 --> 00:02:27,310
- What?
- Bigfoot hunting.

37
00:02:27,350 --> 00:02:28,980
I had my phone turned off.

38
00:02:29,020 --> 00:02:30,480
Did you have any luck?

39
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,120
No, but that's not really the point.

40
00:02:33,150 --> 00:02:36,320
I just had to get away from
the madness for a little while.

41
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,460
It seems this past year
all I've done is watch the news

42
00:02:39,490 --> 00:02:41,730
and worry that the country's gone insane.

43
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,160
I had to get out to nature.

44
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:45,776
You know, where it's simple
and uncomplicated,

45
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,730
where it's just you and the elements.

46
00:02:48,190 --> 00:02:50,840
And possibly
a cryptozoological, simianlike,

47
00:02:50,870 --> 00:02:53,150
hairy humanoid with enormous feet.

48
00:02:53,180 --> 00:02:55,440
I think you just like
saying "squatchin'."

49
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,210
We still on for dinner tomorrow night?

50
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,680
Yeah, I'll see you then.

51
00:02:58,950 --> 00:03:00,750
Hey, Scully,
I ever tell you about the time

52
00:03:00,780 --> 00:03:02,580
I found a Sasquatch footprint in the mud?

53
00:03:02,610 --> 00:03:04,850
- Yeah, you did. I...
- It was 35 years ago, about.

54
00:03:04,890 --> 00:03:06,736
- Mulder, I've heard this before.
- On the banks

55
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,166
- of the mighty Mogoagogo River.
- Mulder, you already told me.

56
00:03:09,190 --> 00:03:10,766
- I got to go, got to go, Mulder.
- In beautiful British Columbia.

57
00:03:10,790 --> 00:03:13,690
Scully? Scully?

58
00:03:48,430 --> 00:03:50,030
Mulder.

59
00:03:50,060 --> 00:03:51,430
It's me.

60
00:03:51,470 --> 00:03:53,100
Now, II know you're surprised to see me.

61
00:03:53,130 --> 00:03:55,100
I thought we were all done after...

62
00:03:55,140 --> 00:03:56,700
you know, that last case.

63
00:03:57,410 --> 00:03:59,440
I've stumbled on the conspiracy to...

64
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,420
to end all conspiracies.

65
00:04:03,750 --> 00:04:05,070
Who are you?

66
00:04:07,550 --> 00:04:09,510
So they have already gotten to you.

67
00:04:10,350 --> 00:04:13,250
How did you know how
to contact me? To meet me here?

68
00:04:13,290 --> 00:04:15,720
I... It had to be someplace safe.

69
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:16,970
They...

70
00:04:17,660 --> 00:04:20,590
they'd kill us if they had the chance.

71
00:04:20,630 --> 00:04:21,990
And who are "they"?

72
00:04:22,030 --> 00:04:24,310
They are why you don't remember.

73
00:04:24,550 --> 00:04:27,130
Why aren't people getting probed
by aliens anymore?

74
00:04:27,170 --> 00:04:29,340
You used to know,
but they made you forget...

75
00:04:29,370 --> 00:04:32,000
so that you wouldn't remember me.

76
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:33,840
Look, what is this all about?

77
00:04:33,980 --> 00:04:36,780
My God. Look, there's no way
for me to make you understand

78
00:04:36,810 --> 00:04:38,840
without me seeming like a crazed madman.

79
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,850
It's a little late for that.

80
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,620
I think your ride is here.

81
00:04:47,790 --> 00:04:49,520
The first Twilight Zone episode

82
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,306
you ever saw... it was
"The Lost Martian," right?

83
00:04:51,330 --> 00:04:53,330
You remember that?

84
00:04:53,890 --> 00:04:55,160
And if I do?

85
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,630
That Twilight Zone episode...

86
00:04:58,060 --> 00:04:59,670
doesn't exist.

87
00:04:59,700 --> 00:05:01,700
It never did.

88
00:05:06,140 --> 00:05:07,810
Were you followed?

89
00:05:08,810 --> 00:05:10,440
Who is that?

90
00:05:12,910 --> 00:05:14,710
It would be a hell of a twist

91
00:05:14,750 --> 00:05:16,650
if it were Rod Serling.

92
00:05:26,390 --> 00:05:28,710
Submitted for your approval.

93
00:05:31,170 --> 00:05:34,000
No, it's not in here, either.

94
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:35,630
Mulder, what I don't understand

95
00:05:35,670 --> 00:05:38,070
is how this guy knew

96
00:05:38,110 --> 00:05:39,670
about your secret rendezvous signal.

97
00:05:39,710 --> 00:05:41,150
Who cares about any of that, Scully?

98
00:05:41,180 --> 00:05:42,910
I can't find "The Lost Martian."

99
00:05:42,940 --> 00:05:45,300
WhWhen he said that that episode

100
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:46,586
of The Twilight Zone didn't exist,

101
00:05:46,610 --> 00:05:49,280
that's when I knew he was
a crazy person. It's a classic.

102
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:50,680
So I came home, and I checked

103
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,550
my box DVD set, and it wasn't on there.

104
00:05:52,590 --> 00:05:54,460
I checked all my episode guidebooks.

105
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:55,420
No mention of it.

106
00:05:55,460 --> 00:05:57,860
I searched online. Nothing.

107
00:05:57,890 --> 00:05:59,890
So now I'm going through
my tapes because I'm sure

108
00:05:59,930 --> 00:06:01,530
I recorded it at some point.

109
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,000
Well, maybe it's one
of those other shows, like...

110
00:06:04,030 --> 00:06:05,730
Outer Limits or...

111
00:06:05,770 --> 00:06:07,606
Confuse The Twilight Zone
with The Outer Limits?

112
00:06:07,630 --> 00:06:09,840
Do you even know me?!

113
00:06:09,870 --> 00:06:12,840
Can we talk about this
over dinner, please?

114
00:06:12,870 --> 00:06:15,040
II'm not gonna be able to eat
until I find this.

115
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,550
Ever again.

116
00:06:17,140 --> 00:06:19,410
It can't be that good of an episode.

117
00:06:19,450 --> 00:06:21,910
Itlt'sit's not
about the episode, Scully.

118
00:06:21,950 --> 00:06:23,350
It's about my memory

119
00:06:23,380 --> 00:06:25,600
of seeing my first Twilight Zone.

120
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,520
It changed me.

121
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:28,850
You don't forget that.

122
00:06:28,890 --> 00:06:30,460
I was eight years old.

123
00:06:30,490 --> 00:06:32,220
My parents let me stay up till midnight

124
00:06:32,260 --> 00:06:34,760
because that was back
in the day when it only aired,

125
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,400
you know, late at night
on some local channel.

126
00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:39,450
Wait, what?!

127
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,300
And my name's not Buddy.

128
00:06:43,340 --> 00:06:45,740
- Now I get it.
- Wait, what?!

129
00:06:46,910 --> 00:06:48,430
I remember it all so clearly,

130
00:06:49,050 --> 00:06:50,580
as if it just happened.

131
00:06:58,510 --> 00:07:00,190
He stand you up again?

132
00:07:04,310 --> 00:07:07,730
Are you that guy
that met with Mulder last night?

133
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,400
What gave it away, Skulls?

134
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:12,460
He mentioned

135
00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:13,670
the forehead sweat.

136
00:07:14,030 --> 00:07:15,730
I need you to help me find someone.

137
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:17,600
Who?

138
00:07:18,030 --> 00:07:19,410
Me.

139
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,340
They...

140
00:07:21,380 --> 00:07:23,810
they're trying to erase me!

141
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,140
Skulls, look, I can prove it.

142
00:07:25,180 --> 00:07:26,960
Hey, I'm armed.

143
00:07:27,550 --> 00:07:29,550
Just...

144
00:07:37,060 --> 00:07:38,130
Wh...

145
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,160
WhWhere did you find this?

146
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,900
My fingerprints are on that box.

147
00:07:46,330 --> 00:07:47,900
Just prove that I'm real!

148
00:07:50,670 --> 00:07:51,930
WWait!

149
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,810
Who...

150
00:08:08,870 --> 00:08:10,506
Let me... LLet me,
let me get this straight.

151
00:08:10,530 --> 00:08:13,690
WhWhen it cools, it forms
into three different layers,

152
00:08:13,740 --> 00:08:16,770
with three different textures,
all from the same mix?

153
00:08:16,810 --> 00:08:18,970
How has this never been an XFile?

154
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,640
II have such wonderful memories
associated with it.

155
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,980
I remember my mom making it.

156
00:08:25,010 --> 00:08:28,180
I remember family vacations
over the summer holidays,

157
00:08:28,210 --> 00:08:30,920
and Fourth of July, fireworks,

158
00:08:30,950 --> 00:08:33,590
America, God, love.

159
00:08:33,620 --> 00:08:35,590
That's some JellO.

160
00:08:35,620 --> 00:08:37,220
I mean, just the cherry flavor.

161
00:08:37,260 --> 00:08:39,330
The lemonlime tasted
like leprechaun taint.

162
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,400
But II have literally been
looking for this for decades.

163
00:08:42,430 --> 00:08:45,700
But every time I look
for GoopO ABC, everyone says,

164
00:08:45,730 --> 00:08:48,570
"No, you must be thinking
about JellO 123."

165
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,040
It's the Mandela Effect.

166
00:08:50,070 --> 00:08:51,940
- What do you mean?
- When someone has

167
00:08:51,970 --> 00:08:53,870
a memory of something that's not shared

168
00:08:53,910 --> 00:08:56,510
by the majority or the factual record.

169
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,086
For instance, there are
some people that have a memory

170
00:08:59,110 --> 00:09:02,750
of seeing a movie called
Shazaam, starring Sinbad

171
00:09:02,780 --> 00:09:05,550
as an irrepressible genie, even
after it's pointed out to them

172
00:09:05,590 --> 00:09:07,950
that they're probably thinking
of a movie called Kazaam,

173
00:09:07,990 --> 00:09:10,060
starring Shaquille O'Neal
as an irrepressible genie,

174
00:09:10,090 --> 00:09:13,760
especially 'cause a movie
called Shazaam was never made.

175
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,660
But what if I don't remember
either movie?

176
00:09:15,700 --> 00:09:18,340
- You win!
- But, Mulder,

177
00:09:18,370 --> 00:09:20,270
isn't your false Twilight Zone memory

178
00:09:20,300 --> 00:09:21,630
also a Mandela Effect?

179
00:09:21,670 --> 00:09:24,600
No, because my false memory is real.

180
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,240
But, again, how does this... mystery guy,

181
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,110
whose fingerprints came up with nothing,

182
00:09:31,150 --> 00:09:33,150
how does he even know about these,

183
00:09:33,180 --> 00:09:34,326
these secret memories of ours?

184
00:09:34,350 --> 00:09:35,980
You can ask him yourself tonight.

185
00:09:36,020 --> 00:09:37,980
I already taped an "X"
to the window this morning.

186
00:09:38,020 --> 00:09:40,050
But that's your secret rendezvous signal.

187
00:09:40,550 --> 00:09:42,820
I don't want to intrude.

188
00:09:43,430 --> 00:09:45,760
He clearly wants you involved, Scully.

189
00:09:46,430 --> 00:09:48,430
Come on, it'll be like a date.

190
00:09:55,060 --> 00:09:56,570
Well, this is romantic.

191
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:57,970
Isn't it?

192
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:19,860
So, who are you?

193
00:10:19,890 --> 00:10:21,460
I think my name is Reggie.

194
00:10:22,010 --> 00:10:23,960
Reggie something.

195
00:10:24,550 --> 00:10:28,870
Well, Mr. Something, you want to
tell us what this is all about?

196
00:10:29,350 --> 00:10:32,310
Like all
lifequestioning revelations,

197
00:10:32,340 --> 00:10:34,010
it came to me while I was moving.

198
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,440
Not myself, but my mother.

199
00:10:36,470 --> 00:10:38,720
And when unpacking her stuff,
I came across a bunch

200
00:10:38,740 --> 00:10:40,110
of old things of mine she kept.

201
00:10:40,980 --> 00:10:43,540
Remembering my mom reading
Dr. Wuzzle books to me

202
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,650
is one of the fondest memories I have.

203
00:10:47,070 --> 00:10:50,020
But... when I looked more
closely at the book's cover,

204
00:10:50,060 --> 00:10:51,806
well, that's when the
woozlewozzleblooberblubs

205
00:10:51,830 --> 00:10:52,930
really hit the fan.

206
00:10:52,970 --> 00:10:53,930
Wait, what?

207
00:10:53,970 --> 00:10:55,820
Because Dr. Wuzzle's name
was spelled different

208
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,030
than how I remembered... not with two Ss,

209
00:10:58,070 --> 00:10:59,370
but with two Zs.

210
00:11:01,500 --> 00:11:03,000
What's happening?!

211
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,510
- It's the Mandela Effect.
- The what effect?

212
00:11:06,540 --> 00:11:08,670
The Mandela Effect.
When someone has a memory

213
00:11:08,710 --> 00:11:12,080
that doesn't coincide with
everybody else's or the facts.

214
00:11:12,110 --> 00:11:14,050
So named because
some people have a memory

215
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,420
of hearing that Nelson Mandela
died in the '80s

216
00:11:16,450 --> 00:11:19,690
while imprisoned, when, in fact,
he died a free man in 2013.

217
00:11:20,230 --> 00:11:22,860
No. It's called the Mengele Effect

218
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:24,690
because people have a memory

219
00:11:24,730 --> 00:11:28,590
of Josef Mengele getting
apprehended in Ohio in 1970.

220
00:11:28,630 --> 00:11:30,100
So, it's the Mengele Effect.

221
00:11:30,490 --> 00:11:32,100
The Mandela Effect has been

222
00:11:32,130 --> 00:11:33,680
an Internet meme for almost a decade.

223
00:11:33,700 --> 00:11:35,170
It's always been called that.

224
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,670
See, you're having a Mengele
Effect about the Mandela Effect.

225
00:11:39,070 --> 00:11:41,070
I should know because
of how I found out about it.

226
00:11:41,110 --> 00:11:42,940
My search led me to a...

227
00:11:43,670 --> 00:11:46,550
historical repository
of vintage Americana.

228
00:11:52,390 --> 00:11:56,890
Excuse me... do you have
any old Dr. Wuzzle books?

229
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,690
That's something somebody might
actually want, so, no.

230
00:11:59,730 --> 00:12:03,430
I do have something over
in the political shame section

231
00:12:03,460 --> 00:12:05,200
that might interest you.

232
00:12:10,170 --> 00:12:16,480
It's a cartoon that
Dr. Wuzzle drew back in 1940.

233
00:12:18,750 --> 00:12:20,380
Damn it, it's still wrong!

234
00:12:20,420 --> 00:12:23,150
Easy, easy! If you're gonna
break something,

235
00:12:23,180 --> 00:12:25,050
use the Evel Knievel doll.

236
00:12:25,090 --> 00:12:26,750
It'll make it more authentic.

237
00:12:27,550 --> 00:12:28,550
What? No.

238
00:12:28,590 --> 00:12:30,180
I'm sorry. Itit...

239
00:12:31,050 --> 00:12:34,560
I remember his name being
spelled in a different way.

240
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,630
Boy. Sounds like somebody's suffering

241
00:12:37,670 --> 00:12:40,400
from the Mengele Effect.

242
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,270
See? It's called the Mengele Effect.

243
00:12:43,300 --> 00:12:44,600
That doesn't prove anything.

244
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,740
D... Just trust me, okay?

245
00:12:46,770 --> 00:12:49,340
I've done a lot of research
into this since then.

246
00:12:49,380 --> 00:12:52,950
And the shop owner himself was
a bit of an expert on the topic.

247
00:12:52,980 --> 00:12:55,510
It all started a couple
years ago... people coming in

248
00:12:55,550 --> 00:12:57,450
looking for some fondlyremembered item

249
00:12:57,490 --> 00:12:59,920
from their past, and I'd show it to them,

250
00:12:59,950 --> 00:13:01,820
but there's always something
just a little off.

251
00:13:01,860 --> 00:13:03,590
And they'd be like, "No",

252
00:13:03,620 --> 00:13:06,130
I remember the logo being racist
in a different way."

253
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,336
It's like everybody's recall was
just a little out of whack.

254
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:09,650
Yeah, yeah.

255
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:13,100
And I think the government
knows about it.

256
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,000
Whatwhat do you mean?

257
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,410
Come on, the government always
knows more than they let on.

258
00:13:17,450 --> 00:13:19,710
For instance, do you think
that the government

259
00:13:19,740 --> 00:13:22,510
didn't know, when this
was being sold back in the '70s,

260
00:13:22,540 --> 00:13:24,380
that it wasn't full of carcinogens?

261
00:13:24,410 --> 00:13:28,440
They know the truth
about the... Mengele Effect.

262
00:13:29,220 --> 00:13:31,220
That's when I launched
my own investigation

263
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:32,350
into the phenomenon.

264
00:13:32,390 --> 00:13:33,820
The Mengele Effect is being

265
00:13:33,860 --> 00:13:36,060
intentionally orchestrated by someone.

266
00:13:36,090 --> 00:13:38,320
Who? And to what end?

267
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,130
For the simple reasons that Orwell said.

268
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,660
"He who controls the past
controls the future."

269
00:13:42,700 --> 00:13:46,830
The ability to manipulate memory
creates unlimited power...

270
00:13:46,870 --> 00:13:49,030
political, economical, cultural.

271
00:13:49,070 --> 00:13:51,900
It runs the gamut from Holocaust denial

272
00:13:51,940 --> 00:13:53,570
to corporate product recognition.

273
00:13:53,610 --> 00:13:55,740
There are companies who are
willing to pay anything,

274
00:13:55,780 --> 00:13:57,810
do anything, to have people forget

275
00:13:57,850 --> 00:14:01,700
that their products explode on
impact or suddenly catch fire.

276
00:14:01,740 --> 00:14:03,520
Companies like G...

277
00:14:03,550 --> 00:14:07,130
spending billions in profit
to repress these memories.

278
00:14:07,660 --> 00:14:09,186
Thethe only thing
I haven't been able to do is

279
00:14:09,210 --> 00:14:11,220
to figure out how they're doing it.

280
00:14:11,260 --> 00:14:12,700
They can't.

281
00:14:13,090 --> 00:14:15,220
II'm sorry, but this is ridiculous.

282
00:14:15,260 --> 00:14:17,040
I mean, the Mandela Effect is simp...

283
00:14:17,180 --> 00:14:18,630
It's the Mengele Effect, guys.

284
00:14:18,660 --> 00:14:20,076
It's the Mengele Effect. Just say it.

285
00:14:20,100 --> 00:14:23,770
Is simply people misremembering stuff.

286
00:14:23,810 --> 00:14:29,740
But maybe... this is actually
evidence of a parallel universe.

287
00:14:29,780 --> 00:14:31,440
- Wait, what?!
- Wait, what?!

288
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,839
So maybe ththese differences

289
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,210
in collective memories
are actually evidence of

290
00:14:35,250 --> 00:14:38,380
of our universe somehow becoming
intertwined with another,

291
00:14:38,420 --> 00:14:40,950
if not identical,
then very similar, universe.

292
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,330
So people's memories are correct.

293
00:14:42,370 --> 00:14:43,770
They're just remembering something

294
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,176
that happened in another dimension.

295
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:46,600
Hence, the discrepancies.

296
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:47,910
That's science, Scully.

297
00:14:47,940 --> 00:14:51,830
- Theoretical science, at best, Mulder.
- Yeah.

298
00:14:51,870 --> 00:14:54,010
We're not gonna do
this parallel universe,

299
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,480
scifi gobbledygook, nerd boy, okay?

300
00:14:56,500 --> 00:14:57,660
So just, please, drop it.

301
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,550
Because that crap gives me a headache.

302
00:14:59,580 --> 00:15:00,300
It's a lot better

303
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,520
than some evil entity
zapping people's brains

304
00:15:03,550 --> 00:15:04,620
with a hypnoray gun?

305
00:15:04,730 --> 00:15:06,310
I never mentioned a hypnoray gun...

306
00:15:06,340 --> 00:15:08,089
Guys...

307
00:15:08,090 --> 00:15:11,730
it's faulty memory because Occam's razor.

308
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,430
That's "Ozzie's razor," not Occam's.

309
00:15:13,470 --> 00:15:15,530
It's always been Ozzie's razor.

310
00:15:15,570 --> 00:15:17,500
Maybe in a parallel universe it is,

311
00:15:17,540 --> 00:15:19,400
but in still yet another universe,

312
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,610
it's perhaps known as "Occam's ax."

313
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,360
It's not parallel universes!

314
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:25,230
Now, look,

315
00:15:25,260 --> 00:15:28,610
since I'm the only one with any
proof of this insidious plot...

316
00:15:28,650 --> 00:15:30,780
What proof?
You've yet to offer any proof.

317
00:15:30,820 --> 00:15:33,850
Proof is in the fact that once I
uncovered what they were up to,

318
00:15:33,890 --> 00:15:36,050
they turned the Mengele Effect on me.

319
00:15:36,090 --> 00:15:38,390
Just, look.

320
00:15:39,810 --> 00:15:42,090
It's my high school yearbook
my mom kept, right?

321
00:15:42,130 --> 00:15:47,380
There is not a single picture
of me in here... anywhere.

322
00:15:47,500 --> 00:15:50,320
There's not any inscriptions
from my classmates here.

323
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,730
No "Have a great summer,"
"You were funny in math class."

324
00:15:52,770 --> 00:15:55,810
Nothing. It's like I never
even went to this school.

325
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,980
Maybe you did,
but in a parallel universe.

326
00:15:58,020 --> 00:16:00,380
Exactly... Knock that off.

327
00:16:00,410 --> 00:16:03,420
Reggie, none of us
remember our high school years

328
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:04,620
with much accuracy.

329
00:16:04,650 --> 00:16:09,250
Skulls, I wish this was about
my own psychological issues.

330
00:16:09,290 --> 00:16:12,490
That way, the memorabilia
shop owner would still be alive.

331
00:16:12,530 --> 00:16:14,830
When I went back to tell him
about the conspiracy

332
00:16:14,860 --> 00:16:17,660
to manipulate memory, and to see
if he had those little...

333
00:16:17,700 --> 00:16:19,500
Do you guys remember the little candies

334
00:16:19,530 --> 00:16:21,430
that were shaped like watermelon slices,

335
00:16:21,470 --> 00:16:23,400
but they taste like coconut?

336
00:16:23,810 --> 00:16:26,970
When I went back, they had silenced him.

337
00:16:33,310 --> 00:16:35,310
They had impaled him with a lawn dart.

338
00:16:38,530 --> 00:16:39,950
I'm sorry, but

339
00:16:39,990 --> 00:16:41,950
what's a lawn dart?

340
00:16:41,990 --> 00:16:44,760
It's this kid's game,
where you would try

341
00:16:44,790 --> 00:16:47,160
to throw these minimetallic
javelins into the air

342
00:16:47,190 --> 00:16:49,430
onto these rings that you put on a lawn.

343
00:16:49,460 --> 00:16:51,760
And they sold these to kids?

344
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,770
We were made of sterner stuff
back then, Scully.

345
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,530
Well, it just sounds like
an accidental death to me.

346
00:16:57,570 --> 00:17:01,010
No! No, that's what
they want you to believe!

347
00:17:04,850 --> 00:17:06,640
Sounds like your ride's here.

348
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,650
- You're not...
- She thinks I'm just some kind of

349
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,460
conspiracy nut. Well, you know what?

350
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,140
A conspiracy nut is right twice a day.

351
00:17:13,180 --> 00:17:14,690
No, that's a broken clock.

352
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,320
Okay, it still applies because

353
00:17:16,360 --> 00:17:18,036
they want you to think
all conspiracies are nutty,

354
00:17:18,060 --> 00:17:20,720
so you will ignore the ones
that are true.

355
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,660
Reggie, take it from a fellow nut, okay?

356
00:17:23,700 --> 00:17:26,500
At some point, you're gonna have
to explain who "they" are.

357
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,380
You keep on referring to this
omnipresent, mysterious "they"

358
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,500
to give intentionality to random events,

359
00:17:32,540 --> 00:17:34,710
or external explanations
for psychological ones.

360
00:17:34,740 --> 00:17:36,340
But there's no "they" there.

361
00:17:36,380 --> 00:17:38,510
Who is "they"?

362
00:17:41,300 --> 00:17:42,810
This guy!

363
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,120
He is They!

364
00:17:52,890 --> 00:17:54,460
This is the story
of a man named They.

365
00:17:54,490 --> 00:17:56,660
Dr. Thaddeus Q. They, a neuroscientist

366
00:17:56,690 --> 00:18:00,200
who has discovered a way to
manipulate collective memory.

367
00:18:00,330 --> 00:18:03,360
Most people have never heard
of him, or rather, they have,

368
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,720
but he has manipulated their
memories to make them forget

369
00:18:05,740 --> 00:18:06,840
that they ever have.

370
00:18:07,260 --> 00:18:08,500
While working on NASA's

371
00:18:08,530 --> 00:18:10,810
top secret Operation Soy Bomb,

372
00:18:10,940 --> 00:18:14,210
involving future, oneway space
flights beyond our realm,

373
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,680
Dr. They devised a technique
to change specific memories,

374
00:18:17,710 --> 00:18:20,410
which would allow astronauts
to complete their mission

375
00:18:20,450 --> 00:18:23,600
without being weighed down by
thoughts of life back on Earth.

376
00:18:23,630 --> 00:18:25,400
However, Dr. They was fired

377
00:18:25,460 --> 00:18:26,930
for also making the astronauts think

378
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,050
that they were chimpanzees.

379
00:18:30,030 --> 00:18:31,930
He perfected his research
while at the U.S.

380
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,500
university hospital in Grenada,

381
00:18:33,540 --> 00:18:35,270
and now applies his method for a number

382
00:18:35,310 --> 00:18:37,540
of unknown, mysterious clients.

383
00:18:37,570 --> 00:18:39,770
His memory manipulations
have run the gamut

384
00:18:39,810 --> 00:18:41,280
from Holocaust denial

385
00:18:41,310 --> 00:18:42,780
to corporate product recognition

386
00:18:42,810 --> 00:18:44,690
to making people forget he, himself,

387
00:18:44,700 --> 00:18:46,660
once starred as an irrepressible genie

388
00:18:46,700 --> 00:18:48,680
in a movie called KaBlaam!

389
00:18:48,820 --> 00:18:50,420
Dr. They has not been heard of

390
00:18:50,450 --> 00:18:52,360
for many years, but rumors swirled

391
00:18:52,420 --> 00:18:54,720
that he was at the last
presidential inauguration,

392
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,530
where, amongst the hundreds
of millions who attended,

393
00:18:57,660 --> 00:19:00,900
he was seen occupying the last
remaining seat available.

394
00:19:00,930 --> 00:19:03,630
And as to his motivations
for being there,

395
00:19:03,670 --> 00:19:07,870
and what exactly he is up to
now, we have no way of knowing.

396
00:19:07,900 --> 00:19:09,900
Or perhaps we once did,

397
00:19:09,940 --> 00:19:12,290
but have since been made to forget.

398
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,279
What the hell was that?

399
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:17,710
That video was...

400
00:19:17,750 --> 00:19:19,210
unbelievable.

401
00:19:19,250 --> 00:19:21,220
You want to hear unbelievable,

402
00:19:21,260 --> 00:19:22,780
check out some of these comments.

403
00:19:22,820 --> 00:19:25,650
"I think the editing
could have been tighter."

404
00:19:25,690 --> 00:19:27,290
This jerk just says, "Meh."

405
00:19:28,540 --> 00:19:30,420
When I stumbled
across this on the Darknet,

406
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,460
I tried to confirm
as much of it as I could,

407
00:19:32,500 --> 00:19:35,000
but I was only able to verify
the most important part...

408
00:19:35,030 --> 00:19:36,330
the Grenada thing.

409
00:19:36,370 --> 00:19:38,430
That was the most important part?

410
00:19:38,470 --> 00:19:41,900
Tell me, Little Miss Skeptic,
why did we invade Grenada?

411
00:19:41,940 --> 00:19:44,940
When was that again?

412
00:19:44,970 --> 00:19:46,850
There was a Marxist overthrow
of the government,

413
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,980
and Reagan was concerned
about some U.S. students

414
00:19:49,010 --> 00:19:50,480
at a university hospital.

415
00:19:50,510 --> 00:19:52,300
Okay, now you're just...

416
00:19:52,340 --> 00:19:53,830
- What?
- You're just embarrassing

417
00:19:53,850 --> 00:19:55,150
yourself at this point.

418
00:19:55,180 --> 00:19:57,920
Those were the official reasons,

419
00:19:57,950 --> 00:20:00,620
but no one really remembers the reasons,

420
00:20:00,660 --> 00:20:03,390
not even me, and I was there!

421
00:20:05,530 --> 00:20:07,600
And I found this amongst my mom's stuff.

422
00:20:07,630 --> 00:20:09,960
I wrote it when I was
in Grenada, when I was 18,

423
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,190
to be read when I turned 50.

424
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:18,970
"To myself at age 50.

425
00:20:19,010 --> 00:20:20,660
Always remember..."

426
00:20:21,700 --> 00:20:24,040
And the rest of the letter's redacted.

427
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,550
Who redacted it?

428
00:20:25,830 --> 00:20:27,520
I think I did when I wrote it.

429
00:20:27,550 --> 00:20:30,180
It was meant as kind of a joke,
but... I mean, that kind

430
00:20:30,220 --> 00:20:31,826
of stuff was funny
to me when I was a kid.

431
00:20:31,850 --> 00:20:33,320
Okay, what does this prove?

432
00:20:33,360 --> 00:20:35,510
You're missing the most important part.

433
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,660
A Grenada UFO stamp.

434
00:20:40,700 --> 00:20:42,560
- Yeah.
- What's that?

435
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,800
The Prime Minister of Grenada
once advocated in front

436
00:20:44,830 --> 00:20:47,670
of the U.N. for the creation
of a department of UFO research.

437
00:20:47,700 --> 00:20:50,370
Hehe issued these stamps
to raise money for that effort.

438
00:20:50,410 --> 00:20:53,140
After he was deposed,
he confessed that a UFO

439
00:20:53,180 --> 00:20:55,000
had crashed off their coast,
and a dead alien

440
00:20:55,020 --> 00:20:56,840
had been recovered from the waters.

441
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,200
Correct, except for one detail.

442
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,280
The alien wasn't dead!

443
00:21:04,020 --> 00:21:06,340
Now, I was a med student
at that hospital.

444
00:21:06,500 --> 00:21:08,496
That's where they brought in
the semiconscious alien,

445
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,890
and Dr. They was in charge
of trying to save it.

446
00:21:11,930 --> 00:21:14,159
Apparently the alien
had been sent to Earth

447
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,830
to warn us about the holes
in the ozone layer.

448
00:21:16,870 --> 00:21:19,730
One of his people
would return in 35 years to see

449
00:21:19,770 --> 00:21:22,600
if we had managed to avoid
environmental catastrophe.

450
00:21:36,790 --> 00:21:39,640
Now, I only caught glimpses
of their conversation.

451
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,560
The two of them talked
alien telepathically.

452
00:21:42,590 --> 00:21:45,110
I will telepathically
transfer to you

453
00:21:45,120 --> 00:21:48,600
all our knowledge
of what you call "the brain."

454
00:21:48,630 --> 00:21:51,070
But that's when
the invasion occurred

455
00:21:51,100 --> 00:21:52,740
and the men
from the government showed up.

456
00:21:52,770 --> 00:21:54,130
Wait, what?

457
00:22:05,180 --> 00:22:07,410
I don't know if I repressed the memory

458
00:22:07,450 --> 00:22:09,930
or Dr. They erased my mind, but...

459
00:22:10,350 --> 00:22:11,940
seeing that stamp,

460
00:22:12,360 --> 00:22:14,390
it all came flooding back to me.

461
00:22:14,420 --> 00:22:17,060
Now we're dealing
with recovered memories?

462
00:22:17,090 --> 00:22:20,530
II'm sorry. I'm out.

463
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,300
Reggie, what you

464
00:22:23,330 --> 00:22:25,910
told us is theoretically possible.

465
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,670
But more likely
in another universe.

466
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,170
The one thing I didn't forget

467
00:22:34,210 --> 00:22:36,140
was the telepathic screams of that alien.

468
00:22:36,180 --> 00:22:39,110
No, wait, what are you...? Hey..

469
00:22:39,150 --> 00:22:41,150
No...

470
00:22:41,180 --> 00:22:42,920
I wanted to know where the men

471
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,150
from the government took him.

472
00:22:45,190 --> 00:22:47,590
That's when I dropped out of med school,

473
00:22:47,620 --> 00:22:49,350
joined the FBI.

474
00:22:50,350 --> 00:22:52,160
And that's how I started the XFiles.

475
00:22:55,230 --> 00:22:56,860
That's right.

476
00:22:56,900 --> 00:22:58,470
We used to be partners!

477
00:23:23,130 --> 00:23:24,060
Yeah. Mulder.

478
00:23:24,100 --> 00:23:25,860
- Foxy.
- Hey, Reggie. What's up?

479
00:23:25,940 --> 00:23:28,370
Got this really cool poster
for the office, man.

480
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,580
I think you're gonna flip
over it.

481
00:23:32,690 --> 00:23:35,470
Sorry, nobody down here
but the FBI's

482
00:23:35,510 --> 00:23:37,140
most unwanted.

483
00:23:39,940 --> 00:23:41,680
Move along, sugar boobs.

484
00:23:41,710 --> 00:23:44,750
This is the XFiles. No women allowed.

485
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:57,130
That guy is so creepy.

486
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,560
Changes world history.

487
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,700
And then Columbus
never discovers America.

488
00:24:02,740 --> 00:24:05,470
Man never lands on the moon.

489
00:24:05,510 --> 00:24:08,040
The U.S. never invades Grenada.

490
00:24:08,070 --> 00:24:09,570
Wait, wait, wait, wait.

491
00:24:09,610 --> 00:24:11,420
What's this about Grenada?

492
00:24:14,350 --> 00:24:16,150
Guys, if this turns out to be
killer cats,

493
00:24:16,180 --> 00:24:18,050
I'm gonna be very disappointed.

494
00:24:18,850 --> 00:24:21,320
She's their mother.

495
00:24:21,350 --> 00:24:23,550
Wait, if she's their mother,
how can she be their...

496
00:24:25,970 --> 00:24:27,160
Boy.

497
00:24:44,110 --> 00:24:46,180
All those memories...

498
00:24:46,210 --> 00:24:49,620
You guys mean to tell me
you don't remember any of that?

499
00:24:50,370 --> 00:24:51,830
Not even...

500
00:24:52,290 --> 00:24:54,380
our last case together?

501
00:24:56,670 --> 00:24:58,660
This is the Mengele Effect in action.

502
00:24:58,690 --> 00:25:01,090
Dr. They is using it against us
because he knows

503
00:25:01,130 --> 00:25:03,430
that we are the only team
capable of stopping him.

504
00:25:03,460 --> 00:25:06,190
There is no Dr. They.

505
00:25:06,220 --> 00:25:07,700
Really?

506
00:25:07,730 --> 00:25:09,640
Well, tell that to his henchmen.

507
00:25:12,210 --> 00:25:14,210
And he sent more of them.

508
00:25:26,050 --> 00:25:29,220
What are you doing here?

509
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,260
You don't know?

510
00:25:34,210 --> 00:25:36,880
The legend that I've heard so much about

511
00:25:36,900 --> 00:25:38,430
would have already figured out
who this guy was

512
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:39,546
that you've been talking to,

513
00:25:39,570 --> 00:25:42,550
and why we were asked
to find out why you are.

514
00:25:43,070 --> 00:25:45,240
But I guess that's how things go:

515
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,300
You start out a rebel,

516
00:25:47,340 --> 00:25:49,510
but then you get fat.

517
00:25:49,540 --> 00:25:51,510
And the next thing you know...

518
00:25:51,540 --> 00:25:52,980
you're deep state.

519
00:25:53,410 --> 00:25:54,810
Sad.

520
00:26:00,550 --> 00:26:02,320
Do you know who I am?

521
00:26:02,360 --> 00:26:04,230
I'm Fox Mulder.

522
00:26:04,270 --> 00:26:06,670
I was fighting the power
and breaking conspiracies

523
00:26:06,700 --> 00:26:09,860
before you saw your first
chemtrail, you punks.

524
00:26:09,900 --> 00:26:12,840
I'm Fox freaking Mulder, you punks!

525
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,500
I'm Fox Mulder!

526
00:26:14,530 --> 00:26:16,100
Fox Mulder!

527
00:26:16,140 --> 00:26:18,040
So this moron's father

528
00:26:18,070 --> 00:26:19,500
is somehow connected there.

529
00:26:19,540 --> 00:26:20,940
Reggie...

530
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,780
To Bob Dylan,
whose '98 Grammy performance

531
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,696
is remembered by millions
because a half naked man

532
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,750
with the words "soy bomb"
written on his chest

533
00:26:31,780 --> 00:26:34,390
jumped onstage and started
dancing like a spaz.

534
00:26:34,420 --> 00:26:36,690
But no official video
of the incident exists.

535
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,260
Did it even happen?

536
00:26:38,290 --> 00:26:40,720
Seven years later, the band Eels
releases a song,

537
00:26:40,780 --> 00:26:41,936
"Whatever Happened to Soy Bomb?"

538
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:43,420
A coded message?

539
00:26:43,450 --> 00:26:45,200
Especially because the band's
lead singer,

540
00:26:45,230 --> 00:26:47,070
the son of Hugh Everett III,
who originated

541
00:26:47,110 --> 00:26:49,180
the manyworlds interpretation
of quantum physics...

542
00:26:49,210 --> 00:26:51,280
and I'm right back
to parallel universes again.

543
00:26:52,980 --> 00:26:54,940
It's true, Scully, I've lost the plot.

544
00:26:54,970 --> 00:26:56,540
I can't find the hidden connections

545
00:26:56,580 --> 00:26:57,700
between things anymore.

546
00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,040
The world has become too crazy

547
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:00,920
for even my conspiratorial powers.

548
00:27:00,980 --> 00:27:02,596
Maybe you've just lost your taste for it,

549
00:27:02,620 --> 00:27:04,920
especially
after all this "birther" stuff.

550
00:27:05,590 --> 00:27:07,130
Maybe.

551
00:27:08,820 --> 00:27:11,090
Maybe it's just realizing the absurdity

552
00:27:11,120 --> 00:27:13,390
of an evil doctor named They.

553
00:27:17,940 --> 00:27:19,800
Mulder.

554
00:27:21,270 --> 00:27:24,440
When? Where?

555
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:29,840
Who was that?

556
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,440
Dr. They.

557
00:27:54,070 --> 00:27:56,470
Dr. They, I presume?

558
00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,800
Kids today don't even know
what this means.

559
00:28:01,410 --> 00:28:02,470
Why should they?

560
00:28:02,510 --> 00:28:04,640
I mean, when's the last time
someone admitted

561
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,480
doing something they were ashamed of?

562
00:28:07,510 --> 00:28:09,750
Even if caught on tape doing it,
they just say,

563
00:28:09,780 --> 00:28:12,420
"Well, that was taken out of context."

564
00:28:12,460 --> 00:28:14,720
Yes, but why are you shaming me?

565
00:28:15,610 --> 00:28:18,520
Someone who's spent his life
seeking the truth

566
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,060
behind every great conspiracy,

567
00:28:21,090 --> 00:28:24,260
and you're only now finding out about me?

568
00:28:26,330 --> 00:28:27,930
Perhaps it just goes to show

569
00:28:27,970 --> 00:28:29,700
how good you are at hiding
in the shadows.

570
00:28:29,740 --> 00:28:32,300
Who's hiding? I'm in the phone book.

571
00:28:32,340 --> 00:28:34,550
But nobody knows what's
a phone book anymore.

572
00:28:35,300 --> 00:28:37,340
I have to admit,
what little I know of you

573
00:28:37,380 --> 00:28:39,410
I got from a rather dubious online video.

574
00:28:39,450 --> 00:28:42,010
Did you like that? I made it.

575
00:28:42,050 --> 00:28:46,080
"Phony fake news."

576
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,550
It's a presentation of real facts,

577
00:28:48,590 --> 00:28:51,760
but in a way that assures
no one will believe any of it.

578
00:28:51,790 --> 00:28:52,890
To what end?

579
00:28:52,930 --> 00:28:55,530
The bitter end.

580
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,590
Which is why, when I became aware

581
00:28:57,630 --> 00:29:00,430
that you were finally aware of me,

582
00:29:00,470 --> 00:29:03,330
I felt a professional courtesy
to meet with you

583
00:29:03,370 --> 00:29:05,900
and to tell you this in person...

584
00:29:06,630 --> 00:29:08,110
you're dead.

585
00:29:09,780 --> 00:29:11,540
That came out wrong.

586
00:29:11,580 --> 00:29:13,380
I'm sorry.

587
00:29:13,410 --> 00:29:14,610
I didn't mean to scare you.

588
00:29:14,650 --> 00:29:16,050
I meant your time,

589
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,350
Agent Mulder, youryour time has passed.

590
00:29:20,020 --> 00:29:23,450
Okay. So, what is, or what was my time?

591
00:29:23,490 --> 00:29:26,220
Well, it's a time when
people of power thought

592
00:29:26,260 --> 00:29:29,460
that they could keep their secrets secret

593
00:29:29,500 --> 00:29:33,400
and were willing to do anything
to keep it that way.

594
00:29:33,430 --> 00:29:35,630
Those days are passed. Gone.

595
00:29:35,670 --> 00:29:38,570
We're now living in a postcoverup,

596
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,900
postconspiracy age.

597
00:29:40,940 --> 00:29:43,210
NNo doubt, the kids will come up with

598
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,440
some catchphrase for it.

599
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,310
"Poco" or something. They'll say, like,

600
00:29:48,350 --> 00:29:50,910
"That's so poco."

601
00:29:50,950 --> 00:29:53,050
It'll make you wish you really were dead.

602
00:29:53,420 --> 00:29:56,150
As long as the truth gets out...

603
00:29:56,190 --> 00:29:59,560
They don't really care
whether the truth gets out,

604
00:29:59,590 --> 00:30:01,430
because the public no longer knows

605
00:30:01,460 --> 00:30:03,270
what's meant by "the truth."

606
00:30:04,530 --> 00:30:06,060
- What do you mean?
- Well, I mean,

607
00:30:06,100 --> 00:30:07,770
no one can tell the difference anymore

608
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,189
between what's real and what's fake.

609
00:30:10,190 --> 00:30:13,660
There's still an objective
truth, an objective reality.

610
00:30:13,700 --> 00:30:15,490
So what?

611
00:30:15,930 --> 00:30:18,570
I mean, you take this Mandela Effect.

612
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,840
Well, in the old days,
I would never have come out

613
00:30:21,870 --> 00:30:24,260
and admitted to you that, yes,

614
00:30:24,300 --> 00:30:26,770
I can change
people's collective memories.

615
00:30:26,810 --> 00:30:29,490
And that would have meant
that I could control the past.

616
00:30:29,530 --> 00:30:32,210
And if that's true...
well, as Orson Welles once said,

617
00:30:32,250 --> 00:30:35,350
"He who controls the past,
controls the future."

618
00:30:35,380 --> 00:30:37,280
It was George Orwell that said that.

619
00:30:38,050 --> 00:30:39,550
Well, for now maybe.

620
00:30:39,590 --> 00:30:43,290
Anyway, the point is,
I can tell you all of this,

621
00:30:43,330 --> 00:30:46,499
right out in the open,
because it doesn't matter

622
00:30:46,500 --> 00:30:47,460
who knows about it.

623
00:30:47,500 --> 00:30:50,520
They won't know whether
to believe it or not.

624
00:30:50,730 --> 00:30:53,200
To be honest, I'm not believing
any of this.

625
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,020
Well, believe what you want to believe...

626
00:30:55,060 --> 00:30:57,200
that's what everybody does
nowadays anyway.

627
00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,070
You're only proving my point, you twit.

628
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,770
But, full disclosure, you're right.

629
00:31:04,780 --> 00:31:06,910
I can't control people's minds.

630
00:31:06,950 --> 00:31:09,550
Although it turns out
you don't really have to.

631
00:31:09,590 --> 00:31:12,490
All you need is some people
to think it's possible.

632
00:31:13,050 --> 00:31:16,220
And then you've sown the seeds
of uncertainty.

633
00:31:16,260 --> 00:31:19,230
All you really need is a laptop.

634
00:31:19,260 --> 00:31:21,390
So that's what this has all been about?

635
00:31:21,430 --> 00:31:23,000
The spread of online disinformation?

636
00:31:23,030 --> 00:31:24,470
Maybe.

637
00:31:25,030 --> 00:31:27,400
You know, our current president once said

638
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,400
something truly profound.

639
00:31:29,790 --> 00:31:33,170
He said, "Nobody knows for sure."

640
00:31:34,460 --> 00:31:35,840
What was he referring to?

641
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,810
What does it matter?

642
00:32:05,980 --> 00:32:07,640
Mulder!

643
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,980
How the hell did you get in here?

644
00:32:10,010 --> 00:32:13,150
Foxy, what did you find out from They?

645
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,690
I'm not exactly sure what
to think about any of it.

646
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,520
God. What did They do to you?

647
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,260
Look, that's exactly what
they want you to think

648
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:22,300
about everything.

649
00:32:22,380 --> 00:32:24,340
First thing I need to do is
find out who you are.

650
00:32:24,380 --> 00:32:27,390
His name is Reginald Murgatroid.

651
00:32:29,010 --> 00:32:31,430
Using your yearbook,

652
00:32:31,470 --> 00:32:34,540
I tracked down your
high school transcripts.

653
00:32:34,570 --> 00:32:36,870
You only spent a few weeks
there, and you didn't graduate.

654
00:32:36,910 --> 00:32:40,140
But after completing your GEDs,
you enlisted in the army

655
00:32:40,180 --> 00:32:43,910
and participated in the invasion
of Grenada,

656
00:32:43,950 --> 00:32:48,620
where one of the resistance
soldiers/construction workers

657
00:32:48,650 --> 00:32:50,550
hit you on the head with a shovel.

658
00:32:50,590 --> 00:32:52,650
You received medical assistance

659
00:32:52,690 --> 00:32:54,790
at the U.S. university hospital there.

660
00:32:54,830 --> 00:32:56,230
After your stint in the military,

661
00:32:56,260 --> 00:33:00,230
you engaged in a series
of bureaucratic jobs

662
00:33:00,260 --> 00:33:02,420
in various federal agencies.

663
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,930
Starting with the U.S. Postal Service.

664
00:33:08,490 --> 00:33:10,580
Then, the Internal Revenue Service.

665
00:33:13,860 --> 00:33:15,760
The Security and Exchange Commission.

666
00:33:18,330 --> 00:33:20,250
And the Department of Justice,
specifically

667
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:21,950
in the Witness Protection Agency.

668
00:33:21,980 --> 00:33:24,580
All right, Anthony
"The Meat Grinder" Mortillaro,

669
00:33:24,610 --> 00:33:26,360
onetime hit man for the mob,

670
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,460
you are now Tony Jones,
real estate agent.

671
00:33:29,490 --> 00:33:32,630
But after 9/11,
you joined the CIA.

672
00:33:35,030 --> 00:33:36,500
Hey.

673
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,380
And then onto the Pentagon,
with the Department of Defense.

674
00:33:41,420 --> 00:33:43,800
Boom goes the dynamite!

675
00:33:45,270 --> 00:33:46,180
Wait.

676
00:33:46,210 --> 00:33:47,780
Was that a wedding cake?

677
00:33:47,810 --> 00:33:49,810
Damn it! Not again.

678
00:33:51,050 --> 00:33:52,819
Well, time for lunch.

679
00:33:52,820 --> 00:33:54,550
But your longest stint

680
00:33:54,590 --> 00:33:57,350
was at the NSA,
the National Security Agency.

681
00:33:57,390 --> 00:33:58,660
So you actually voted for him?

682
00:33:58,700 --> 00:34:00,930
Yeah.
He's going to drain the swamp.

683
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,500
Get all those Goldman Sachs
people out of the White House.

684
00:34:03,530 --> 00:34:05,970
Hey, Scully, did I ever
tell you about the time

685
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,300
I found a Sasquatch footprint in the mud?

686
00:34:08,340 --> 00:34:10,840
Yeah, you did.
I've heard this before.

687
00:34:10,870 --> 00:34:12,940
It was 35 years ago, about,

688
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,116
- on the banks...
- It was on the banks

689
00:34:14,140 --> 00:34:16,910
- of the mighty Mogoagogo River.
- Of the Mogoagogo River.

690
00:34:16,950 --> 00:34:18,410
Until about a year ago,

691
00:34:18,450 --> 00:34:21,410
when you were committed
to a mental institution

692
00:34:21,450 --> 00:34:23,180
because you'd had a nervous breakdown.

693
00:34:23,220 --> 00:34:26,170
Wait... what?

694
00:34:27,010 --> 00:34:28,690
Or perhaps

695
00:34:28,720 --> 00:34:31,760
it's merely the culmination
of disillusionment of a man

696
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:35,330
who simply wanted to spend his
life in service of the country

697
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,660
that he loved, but began
to feel tormented by the idea

698
00:34:37,700 --> 00:34:39,760
that he was betraying its very ideals.

699
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,600
And so, using information,
apparently gathered

700
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,840
through illegal, warrantless wiretaps,

701
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,200
you escaped into a fantasy
where you imagined

702
00:34:48,220 --> 00:34:49,486
that you joined a team that still did

703
00:34:49,510 --> 00:34:53,080
fight for truth and justice.

704
00:34:56,790 --> 00:34:57,880
Or...

705
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,960
I'm from a parallel universe,
and I jumped dimensions...

706
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:02,420
no, that's stupid.

707
00:35:02,460 --> 00:35:03,720
Right? Sorry.

708
00:35:09,230 --> 00:35:10,700
Well...

709
00:35:10,730 --> 00:35:12,800
looks like my ride is here.

710
00:35:13,940 --> 00:35:15,540
Hey, guys.

711
00:35:15,570 --> 00:35:17,700
You remember what I said last time

712
00:35:17,740 --> 00:35:19,810
about if you wanted me
to come along peacefully?

713
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,540
Aw, Mr. Murgatroid, it demeans all of us.

714
00:35:23,580 --> 00:35:27,180
No. No, it gives us
a touch of classicism.

715
00:35:29,190 --> 00:35:30,750
So you remember how,

716
00:35:30,790 --> 00:35:32,640
crazy people used to be portrayed

717
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,090
as thinking they were Napoleon?

718
00:35:35,390 --> 00:35:36,890
When did that stop?

719
00:35:36,930 --> 00:35:39,190
Maybe it's another Mengele Effect, right?

720
00:35:39,230 --> 00:35:41,230
Well, take care, guys.

721
00:35:41,260 --> 00:35:42,760
Stay sane.

722
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,420
And, um, good luck
with the rest of your cases.

723
00:35:49,370 --> 00:35:50,540
Reggie.

724
00:35:52,770 --> 00:35:56,980
Our last case together, what happened?

725
00:36:02,180 --> 00:36:04,280
We found the truth that's out there.

726
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,990
I'd suddenly recalled the Alien
at Grenada's declaration,

727
00:36:08,020 --> 00:36:10,760
that one of his kind would
return to Earth 35 years later.

728
00:36:10,790 --> 00:36:14,130
Foxy's crazy intuition of the
uncanny led him to figure out

729
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,130
the location of the visitation.

730
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:17,830
Scully drove.

731
00:36:17,870 --> 00:36:19,100
There it is!

732
00:36:27,740 --> 00:36:30,240
Is that what I think it is?

733
00:36:33,490 --> 00:36:35,660
It's the gold record.

734
00:36:36,650 --> 00:36:37,820
Yup.

735
00:36:37,850 --> 00:36:39,220
It's the Voyager.

736
00:36:39,250 --> 00:36:41,120
What's left of it.

737
00:36:54,500 --> 00:36:57,900
Greetings, Earthlings.

738
00:37:25,570 --> 00:37:29,070
I come before you as a representative

739
00:37:29,100 --> 00:37:32,200
of the Intergalactic Union
of Sentient Beings

740
00:37:32,300 --> 00:37:35,180
from All Known Universes and Beyond.

741
00:37:35,210 --> 00:37:37,280
We have been observing your species

742
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,110
for many, what you call, "years."

743
00:37:40,150 --> 00:37:42,120
Our study is now complete.

744
00:37:42,150 --> 00:37:45,720
We no longer wish to have
any further contact with you.

745
00:37:45,750 --> 00:37:48,760
We have returned your music sampler

746
00:37:48,790 --> 00:37:52,290
but will no longer tolerate any
further efforts on your part

747
00:37:52,330 --> 00:37:54,630
to venture beyond your realm.

748
00:37:54,660 --> 00:37:56,430
We are building a wall.

749
00:37:56,670 --> 00:38:01,500
It will be a beautiful, albeit
invisible, electromagnetic wall

750
00:38:01,540 --> 00:38:04,300
that will subatomically incinerate

751
00:38:04,340 --> 00:38:08,240
any probes you attempt to send
beyond your solar system.

752
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,310
You're free
to explore Uranus all you want.

753
00:38:11,350 --> 00:38:13,080
But we can't allow your kind

754
00:38:13,110 --> 00:38:15,980
to infiltrate the rest of the cosmos.

755
00:38:16,020 --> 00:38:18,750
You're not sending us your best people.

756
00:38:18,790 --> 00:38:20,150
You're bringing drugs.

757
00:38:20,190 --> 00:38:21,850
You're bringing crime.

758
00:38:21,890 --> 00:38:23,690
You're rapists.

759
00:38:23,730 --> 00:38:27,360
And some, I assume, are good people,

760
00:38:27,970 --> 00:38:29,960
but we have no choice.

761
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:31,260
Believe me.

762
00:38:31,300 --> 00:38:32,800
For although the rest of the galaxies

763
00:38:32,830 --> 00:38:35,770
all have their share
of these same problems,

764
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,600
we fear you could infect us
with the one trait

765
00:38:38,620 --> 00:38:40,610
that is unique to Earthlings.

766
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,180
You lie.

767
00:38:43,310 --> 00:38:45,660
To show there are no hard feelings,

768
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,990
we've compiled a compendium
of answers to any questions

769
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,010
you might still have regarding...

770
00:38:51,150 --> 00:38:53,250
anything.

771
00:39:02,740 --> 00:39:06,800
Good luck, and good riddance.

772
00:39:25,690 --> 00:39:29,320
Bing, bing, bong, bong, bing.

773
00:39:43,410 --> 00:39:45,570
So that's the truth?

774
00:39:45,610 --> 00:39:50,840
We're not alone in the universe,
but nobody likes us?

775
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:52,420
It's okay, Mulder.

776
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,620
- There'll always be more XFiles.
- No.

777
00:39:56,130 --> 00:40:00,090
They gave us
all the answers to everything.

778
00:40:00,660 --> 00:40:02,520
Even Sasquatch.

779
00:40:03,430 --> 00:40:06,290
No! It's not true!

780
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,360
It can't be.

781
00:40:12,870 --> 00:40:14,870
It's time to face the facts, guys.

782
00:40:16,370 --> 00:40:18,610
This is the end of the XFiles.

783
00:40:19,650 --> 00:40:22,240
But maybe the point
wasn't to find the truth,

784
00:40:23,420 --> 00:40:24,920
but to find each other.

785
00:40:25,490 --> 00:40:28,040
For no matter where we go in our lives,

786
00:40:28,490 --> 00:40:31,020
we will always have the memories
of our time together,

787
00:40:31,050 --> 00:40:32,820
and no one can take those away

788
00:40:32,850 --> 00:40:34,820
or alter them in such a way
to make us doubt

789
00:40:34,850 --> 00:40:36,450
that they actually happened.

790
00:40:36,490 --> 00:40:37,540
Reggie.

791
00:40:38,430 --> 00:40:39,630
I've always...

792
00:40:39,650 --> 00:40:41,100
Shh.

793
00:40:41,860 --> 00:40:43,500
I know.

794
00:40:43,530 --> 00:40:45,430
I know.

795
00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:59,580
And as we now know,

796
00:40:59,940 --> 00:41:02,010
they lived happily ever after.

797
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:09,590
We'll be sure to come visit you, Reggie.

798
00:41:09,620 --> 00:41:11,020
No, you won't.

799
00:41:29,710 --> 00:41:31,720
Where the hell are they taking Reggie?

800
00:41:34,620 --> 00:41:36,190
Wait, what?

801
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,620
I see you found your lost episode.

802
00:41:44,660 --> 00:41:46,730
Turns out it wasn't
a Twilight Zone after all.

803
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,160
It was a knockoff show
called The Dusky Realm.

804
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:56,800
Which is now lost for the ages.

805
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,140
Couldn't find anything
to set it in, so I used your...

806
00:42:02,180 --> 00:42:04,910
Bigfoot impression as a mold.

807
00:42:11,180 --> 00:42:13,090
No, wait, you first.

808
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:14,790
