Hospital. Apparently, Grayson's electricity malfunction in the basement makes the whole city flicker. Scully's sitting in Shia's room and looks up at the lights flickering. She then sees that some of the lights in the name of the children's center go out, leaving only a few lit that actually spell [Shia]. Scully gives a sort of half-smile, chuckle. Some kind of reaction. Or maybe she just stares blankly at it because she's bored. I can't remember.

Basement of Poorly Organized Crime. Henry gets off the hook and helps Shia's Mom out of the cage. Mulder and the cops show up, finally.

Mulder sees Cutrona's dead body in a laundry cart with his arm sticking out, showing a medical ID bracelet stating that he's got B- blood. Ahhhhhhh! An anvil just dropped from the ceiling and nearly killed me!

Hospital. Shia's liver transplant went through smoothly, and apparently Mulder and Scully are still in Chicago. Why? They seriously waited around for Shia's surgery? Whatever. Mulder asks Scully about the odds for Cutrona being a perfect match. "A thousand-to-one? A million-to-one?" Scully thinks for a minute. "Well, those sound like my chances for getting pregnant. Maybe everything does happen for a reason... whether we see it or not. Like maybe you and me having an AlienMiracleBaby." Henry joins Shia and his mom in the hospital room and they play with Shia's basketball contraption. Mulder and Scully smile, as they look in on the picture of one happy family. Or, a building super and a couple residents.

I bet you all forgot about that "epiphery" I wanted to have! I figured the "Goldberg Variation" thing out. Henry's contraptions are Rube Goldberg devices. Well, that wasn't so much an "epiphery" as it was me reading the back story of the episode in my Offical Guide to The X-Files Volume 6.
