My "nit-picks" are as numerically proceeds:
1) I gather Special Agent Dana Scully either possesses a key to Special Agent Fox Mulder's apartment or Special Agent Fox Mulder abides by the Seinfeld philosophy in that always keep your front door unlocked. Special Agent Dana Scully strolls right into Special Agent Fox Mulder's apartment in the movie as well.
2) Special Agent Dana Scully contacts an individual, whose name slips my mind, after that individual left her a message. I was observing this episode and performing other tasks simultaneously, and it is vague to me on whose answering machine the individual left his message. Getting back on track, Special Agent Fox Mulder answers the individual's cellular phone, converses with his partner briefly, and tears at a recently molded gargoyle to expose another victim. Consequently, William Patterson appears and behaves as if he has not a clue as to what he has been committing. Then, Special Agent Dana Scully streaks in and demands of her partner to yield his weapon. My "nit-pick" is this: How exactly did Special Agent Dana Scully reach that location so darn quickly? Not more than ten minutes had elapsed from the time the duo exchanged words and Special Agent Dana Scully arrived on the scene.

Just saw this last night , and I noticed that the guy who played the 'bad guy' FBI agent looked a lot like the Father from that 70's show. Were they played by the same actor.

Actually this would make sence as The guy who plays skinner (I dont know how to spell name and don't want to insult him buy spelling it horribly wrong) was on that 70's show in the most recent episode.

Yeah, that was Kurtwood Smith. He's a familiar character actor whom you see all over the place. He was on Voyager, for instance, and in Star Trek VI.

why does it make since that Kurtwood Smith guest stared on The X-Files just because the guy that played Skinner guest stared on that 70s Show?

I don't see what one has to do with the other???? :(

Getting back to D. Stuart's points:

1) Scully's let herself into Mulder's apartment on many occasions before now, so most likely she has a key.
2) During the telephone conversation Scully says "I'm going to be there in a few minutes and we're going to work this thing out together." Therefore it seems reasonable to conclude that she's not far away from Mostow's studio.
