MY REVIEW:  Being the sequel to the classic Irrisistable from season 2, this episode had a lot to live up to.   The change between the sobbing Scully five years ago to the fighting, self confident Scully we see now was clearly evident.  As for shippiness, you could see concern in Mulder's expressions, but Irrisistable was much higher on the shippiness scale.  The story was laid out in an intriguing fashion and the slo-mo ending with Mark Snow's spooky music and no audio was very intense.  I'm a ham for dramaticism and I don't think I blinked once during those ending scenes.  While it's hard to return previous characters like in the Pusher/Kitsunegari episodes, this one ended on a good note with me.  I'd give this episode three and a half stars, but I believe it could have used a little more shippyness.
