GMH. Mulder's lying in bed. He can hear multiple voices overlapping one another in the hallway. In a second or two, one voice above all the others comes through loud and clear. "Please. I need to see him. I'm begging you, please," Scully tells the doctor. Scully walks in Mulder's room and stands over his bed. She looks rough, yo. "Mulder, it's me. I know that you can hear me. If you can just give me some sign." Mulder doesn't give her a sign. Even though a few minutes ago he could turn his head and watch the Jugs walk out the door. "I want you to know where I've been ... what I found. I think that, if you know, that you could find a way to hold on. I need you to hold on. I found a key ... the key ... to every question that has ever been asked. It's a puzzle ... but the pieces are there for us to put together and I know that they can save you if you can just hold on." Scully holds his hand and cries. "Mulder ... please. Hold on." Mulder can read her mind, yo. Inside Scully's head: "I love you, Mulder. I can't live without you. Why can't anything go right for us? When are we gonna cut through all this crap and get it on? I think an African shaman healed my reproductive organs. So, we should talk about that later. Maybe over a candlelit dinner and some red wine. Oh, Diana and her jugs better not have been hanging around here the entire time I was gone."

I find the difference between Diana's bedside conversation and Scully's really interesting. Mulder could read both their minds and their feelings. Diana is only interested in her own agenda and wants Mulder to give up. She has also betrayed him, probably over a very long period of time. She does tell Mulder outright that she loves him, but it's selfish and manipulative. Scully is purely unselfish and no amount of dishonesty can be found in her. She wants Mulder to hold on because she has found the truth that they've been searching for. Scully does indeed love Mulder, but she doesn't have to say it. Moving on...

Ivory Coast. Amina arrives at the beach with the police. They find CDB's dead body. Amina looks out to the water and the spacecraft is gone. Dun dun DUN!
