Time passes in moments.

Moments which, rushing past,
define the path of a life,

just as surely as they lead towards its end.

How rarely do we stop to examine that path.

To see the reasons why all things happen.

To consider whether the path
we take in life is our own making,

or simply one into which
we drift with eyes closed.

But what if we could stop?

Pause to take stock of each
precious moment before it passes.

Might we then see the endless forks
in the road that have shaped a life,

and, seeing those choices,
choose another path?

I got the lab to rush the results of...

I got the lab to rush the results
of the Szezesny autopsy, if you're interested.

- I heard you, Scully.
- And Szezesny did indeed drown.

But not as the result of the inhalation of
ectoplasm, as you so vehemently suggested.

What else could she have drowned in?

Margarita mix. Up-chucked with
about 40 ounces of Corcovado Gold tequila,

which, as it turns out, she and her friends
rapidly consumed in the woods

while re-enacting The Blair Witch Project.

I think that demands
deeper investigation, don't you?

No, I don't.

Well, it doesn't matter.
We got bigger fish to fry.

Have a seat, Scully. Check this out.
Is that beautiful or what?

- Crop circles, Mulder?
- Computer-generated crop circles.

It's a fractal image predicted by a computer

using data of every known occurrence
of the phenomena over the past 40 years.

What most people don't realize
is that since 1991,

there's been a dramatic increase
in the size and complexity of circle design.

That's when the Mandelbrot set appeared
in England - geometrically perfect rings

appearing almost impossibly overnight
in a field near Cambridge.

But that was merely a prelude
of what was to come.

Three years later, in 1994, even more
complex formations occurred simultaneously

on opposite ends of the English countryside
with the Mandelbrot set still at its center.

Then, in 1997, even more
complex formations occurred...

And I'm not wearing any pants right now.

- Hm?
- You're not listening.

I am.

I guess I just don't see the point.

The point is that a computer
programme has shown us

that these are not just random
coincidental occurrences.

And that programme has predicted
that in just48 hours

even more complex formations
will be laid down near Avebury.

48 hours, Scully, but I wouldn't mind
gettin' there earlier, if you don't mind.

- Getting where?
- England. I got two tickets on a 5.30 flight.

I have to go to the hospital and finish the
paperwork on that autopsy you had me do.

And, to be honest, it's Saturday and
I wouldn't mind, I don't know, taking a bath.

- What the hell does that mean?
- I'm not interested in tracking down

some sneaky farmers who happened
to ace geometry in high school.

And besides, I mean, what could you
possibly get out of this? Or learn?

I mean, it's not even remotely FBI-related.

I'll just cancel your ticket.

Thanks for lunch.

Mulder... Look, we're always running.

We're always chasing the next big thing.
Why don't you ever just stay still?

I wouldn't know what I'd be missing.

My name is Dana Scully and I was told
I could pick up a postmortem folder

for a Miss Szezesny here. It's for the FBI.

Let's see. Oh.

Just sign here, please?

Thank you.

Hi, um, I was given the wrong test results.

This x-ray marked D Waterston
was in the envelope marked Szezesny.

- I was expecting autopsy results.
- Oh, I'm sorry.

They must have gotten switched.

- Sorry for the inconvenience.
- Thank you.

Is the, urn... is the D Waterston that was
on the x-ray, is that a Dr Daniel Waterston?

Waterston, Waterston... Yes, it is. Admitted
yesterday. Coronary Care Unit, room 306.

Thank you.

I'm sorry. I don't know what else to say.

Everything appears to be as it should
under the circumstances, so don't worry.

If you'd like, I can show you
the hospital cafeteria.

I guess... yeah, OK.

Are there phones down there too?
I need to make some phone calls.

Excuse me.

- Can I help you with something?
- Um, I'm sorry. I'm Dr Scully.

- I was just in the hospital and...
- Can we step into the hallway?

Yeah.

I'm Dr Waterston's cardiologist, Paul Kopekin.
Did you say your name was Scully?

- Uh, yes. Dana Scully.
- Dr Waterston's mentioned you.

- I'm sorry. You must be mistaken.
- You were a student of his, right?

He has a heart condition?

Dr Waterston came in yesterday
with severe chest pains.

And he ordered us to do
an echo cardiogram and a biopsy

because he'd had symptoms of an
upper-respiratory infection the week before.

- Fortunately, it was the right call.
- Then it's serious.

But treatable. I have to
wake him up soon, if you'd care to...

- No, that's all right. But thanks for your time.
- He must have been a wonderful teacher.

I've been following his work on
constrictive pericarditis for years now.

Yes.

He's a remarkable man.

- Hello?
- You came to see him.

- I'm sorry, who is this?
- Margaret Waterston.

Maggie. Is everything all right?

That depends, doesn't it?

- I'm sorry?
- Whatever.

Dr Kopekin told my father you were here,
and now he wants to see you.

- About what?
- Look, he asked me to call, so I'm calling.

I don't know, Maggie.
I don't know if I've got time.

Don't know if you have the time.

Can you hang on?
I have another call coming through.

Listen, it's your choice. But if you come,
it doesn't mean I accept you being in his life.

Hello?

- I'll never see you again.
- Hello?

- You're breaking my heart.
- Hey, you're there?

- Hey.
- Aren't you supposed to be on a plane?

- I got a 5.30 flight, remember?
- Right. I guess I lost track of time.

Listen, the reason I called...
Am I catching you at a bad time?

No, I just walked in. Why?

There's this group in DC
that is researching crop circles,

and they've got a different set
of coordinates from the one I got.

- Mulder, I'm not going.
- I gotta ask you a favour.

One of them lives near the hospital,

and they've got these sensitive photos
and data they won't fax to me.

So I was just wondering if you would
just maybe go over there and get it.

Speak to me, Scully.

- I'm out for the evening, Mulder.
- Why didn't you say so in the first place?

Look, why don't you leave that address
on my answering machine and I'll try for you.

I'm sorry. I have the wrong room.

It's OK.

Hi.

So, I have to lock eyes with the devil
for you to grace me with your presence?

Surely not the devil.

How are you feeling, Daniel?

It's a real drag when the body
doesn't wanna play any more.

You're lucky you called that diagnosis.

Luck has nothing to do with it.
It's what doctors do every day.

- You may have forgotten that.
- Daniel...

So, how did you happen
to be here in Washington?

That's a long story.

- How's the FBI?
- Is that why you wanted to see me?

To remind me once again
what a bad choice I made?

Believe me, my motivation
is far more selfish than that.

- You scare me, Daniel.
- I know.

I scare you.

Because I represent that which is ingrained
not only in your mind but in your heart.

That which you secretly long for.

- You never accepted my reason for leaving.
- It wasn't a reason. It was an excuse.

But you understood why.

I can't believe the FBI is a passion.
Not like medicine.

I'm sorry I came.

I just wanted to make sure you were OK.

I know how difficult it must have been
for you, just walking through that door.

But you wouldn't have come
if you didn't want to.

That says something, doesn't it?

- Scully.
- I was about to leave you a message.

Listen, I got that address
that I wanted you to go to for me.

It's a woman you'll be dealing with. She's
with the American Taoist Healing Center.

And she researches crop circles?

Don't roll your eyes, Scully.

Mulder, you want me to...

Scully?

Scully, are you there?

Hi, I...You were...

- At the hospital today.
- Right. That's strange.

Um, I'm Agent Scully.
I'm here on behalf of my partner.

- About my research?
- For the FBI, as odd as that may sound.

I'm Colleen Azar. Would you like to come in?

No, thank you. I'm...
I think I need some fresh air.

- Are you all right?
- Yes. I mean, yes. I'm just a little shaken.

A near car accident, I think.
It's nothing, really.

- A car accident isn't nothing.
- I'm sorry?

They're often the end results
of us not paying attention to something.

Look, I don't mean to be rude,
but I really don't have much time.

Sure. I'll go get my papers.

You think what we do
is a little ridiculous, don't you?

Uh, to be honest, I don't know
exactly what it is that you do.

But you've already
formed a judgment about it.

I really should be going.

There is a greater intelligence in all things.

Accidents or near accidents

often remind us that we need to keep
our mind open to the lessons it gives.

You may wanna slow down.

Hello?

- Ah, Hurricane Scully has arrived.
- I was summoned.

Would you please tell the doc here
why he should listen to me?

We've already agreed to doses of digoxin
far beyond what I'd normally recommend.

I guarantee you, Doctor,
you're doing it right.

I can't be responsible for drugs
that might exacerbate your illness.

There hasn't been a double-blind
analysis of prednisone's effect.

Prednisone? That won't complicate cardiac
arrhythmia. Not if it's just a short burst.

There. An informed opinion.

You come off so rational.
But maybe you know less than you think.

She's been through some difficult times.

And she's very angry.

How did she even find out?

There are things you don't know.
Things I'm not proud of.

- What things?
- I screwed up, Dana.

Things got bad at home after...

- Bad how?
- I haven't been completely honest with you.

It was hard for me...

when you walked away.

I shut down from my family.

Needless to say,
it was very difficult for Barbara.

You divorced?

Only after an interminable period
of discomfort for us both.

Where did you go?

Here. Washington.

- When?
- Almost ten years ago.

Daniel.

You didn't move here for me?

- I didn't mean for it to happen this way.
- Oh, God.

- You've come at such a strange time.
- I know, I know. You have a life.

I don't know what I have.

I mean...

Your x-rays were in the wrong envelope. I
only knew you were here because of a mix-up.

It's just...

What do you want, Dana?

I want everything I should want
at this time of my life.

Maybe I want the life I didn't choose.

Nurse!

We have a code in here!

Nurse!

He's in V-fib. Get his head.

- 200 joules. All clear?
- Clear.

- No pulse, no resp.
- 300 joules.

- Clear!
- Clear.

- No pulse, no resp.
- Epinephrine, one milligram IV push.

- Now! Who's paying attention!
- Ready.

- Clear!
- Clear.

We have a pulse.

OK.

Thank you.

- Hi. Can I help you?
- Um, I'm looking for Colleen.

- You wanna come in?
- I just need to speak with her, that's all.

- I have to go.
- Call me if anything interesting happens.

I'm surprised to see you again.

I'm sorry that I was rude before.
I'm a medical doctor and a scientist.

And you're right,
I don't know what it is that you do.

But there was something you said
I wanted to ask about.

About slowing down?

Would you like to sit down?

Please.

I have a friend who's ill.

And I had a strange feeling today,
just a short while ago actually,

that he may be dying from a more
serious condition than anyone realizes.

You sense something.

Holistic practitioners believe,
as do many Eastern religions,

that living beings exist beyond
the physical dimensions of time and space.

That we're composed of layers
of energy and consciousness.

You've probably
heard it referred to as an aura.

Mm... yes.

Witness this energy field, and truths come out
that have little to do with scientific proof,

and much to do with faith.

What are you saying that I saw?

Pain. And where there's pain,
there's a need for healing.

- Physically, mentally or spiritually.
- But he has a heart condition.

When we hold on to shame, and guilt,
and fear, it creates imbalance.

It makes us forget who we are.

This is difficult for you to accept.

Would you like to have some tea?

Have you ever had moments
when everything gets incredibly clear?

When time seems to expand?

Yes.

That's so strange.

You may be more open
to things than you think.

It's just a matter of what you do with it.

I used to be a physicist.

I was successful in my field,
working 80-odd hours a week...

I thought I was happy. Truth is,
I was cut off from the world and from myself.

I was literally dying inside.

I was in a relationship with Carol,
who you met.

But I was so afraid of what the world and my
family and my fellow scientists would think

that I told no one.

Then, two years ago,
I was diagnosed with breast cancer.

I'm sorry.

Don't be. It's the cancer that got my attention.

It got me off
the self-destructive path I was on.

I realized I was in a field
that had little meaning for me.

It's what's allowed me to be happy
for what feels like the first time in my life.

But how?

I was introduced to a healer, who
helped me see the disease for what it was.

It wasn't until I began releasing shame
that my cancer went into remission.

You still aren't sure.

You came here looking for answers and
you want something to take back with you.

Everything happens for a reason.

- Are you happy?
- I'm sorry?

I... I was just going up to see your father.

- You can't. He's in a coma.
- Since when?

Since about two minutes after
you supposedly saved his life.

Do you have any idea the hell
you've created in our lives?

Maggie, to be honest, I left
so there wouldn't be hell in your lives.

Don't try to be reasonable with me.
I am so sick of being reasonable.

You moved on, but we've had
to live with what you left behind.

What I try to do is clear the body's
energy channels, what we call chakras,

which can become barriers to a doctor's
ability to effectively heal the patient.

When these channels are working improperly,
from poor physical or emotional health,

the block creates conditions for disease.

If I can unblock the energy, then I can
prevent the onset or escalation of an illness.

What's going on here?

Dr Scully, who do you think you are?

We have nothing but
Dr Waterston's welfare in mind here.

- You're not his doctor.
- I understand that.

What's taking place here
is an alternative approach.

What's taking place here is a waste of time.

Dr Waterston would be
the first to agree with me.

- Have you considered that?
- I just wanted to help him.

- It seemed like nothing else was working.
- With respect, that is not for you to assess.

That is for me or
Dr Waterston's family to decide.

Then let 'em continue.

If it isn't hurting him,
we should at least be open to it.

I'm afraid there's
nothing more I can do at this time.

This man, quite frankly, is ready to move on.
But something seems to be holding him back.

Unfinished business is binding him to
this plane. Something he needs to release...

before he can let go.

Speak to me.

- Hello.
- It's Maggie.

I need you to come to the hospital now.

Maggie, what...

Daniel?

You think I'd give up so easily?

You were slipping away.

No one thought you'd come out of this.

- I'm still in shock.
- Imagine my shock

when my doctor told me
of the voodoo ritual you arranged last night.

- I was afraid it didn't work.
- Of course it didn't work.

Don't be absurd.
Where did you get this crap?

Daniel, that crap may have just saved
your life, whether you are open to it or not.

That doesn't matter.
I don't want to talk about that.

Look at me.

I'm gonna get well.

And we need to talk about
what happens next for us.

I spoke at length to Maggie.

It's time that you took responsibility
for the hurt you caused in your family.

It's no accident that you got sick, Daniel.

You've been running
from the truth for ten years.

Dana, it was only to be with you.

You were all I lived for.

Maybe the reason you're alive now
is to make up for that.

To make it up to Maggie.

That's Maggie talking, not you.

No.

I'm not the same person, Daniel.

I wouldn't have known that
if I hadn't seen you again.

Excuse me!

Hey.

- Mulder?
- I was just looking for you.

But you're supposed to be in England.

- I'm back.
- What happened?

Nothing. There was no event,
no crop circles. Big waste of time.

Maybe sometimes
nothing happens for a reason, Mulder.

- What is that supposed to mean?
- Nothing.

Come on, I'll make you some tea.

- I just find it hard to believe.
- What part?

The part where I go away for two days
and your whole life changes.

I didn't say my whole life changed.

You speaking to God in a Buddhist temple,
God speaking back...

And I didn't say that God spoke back.
I said that I had some kind of a vision.

Well, for you that's like saying
you're having David Crosby's baby.

What is it?

I once considered
spending my whole life with this man.

What I would have missed.

Who knows? How many different lives would
we be leading if we made different choices?

We... we don't know.

What if there was only one choice?

All the other ones were wrong,

and there were signs
along the way to pay attention to.

Then all the choices would
then lead to this very moment.

One wrong turn and
we wouldn't be sitting here together.

Well, that says a lot.

It says a lot, a lot, a lot. Probably more than
we should be getting into at this late hour.

I made this!
