This episode was priceless! If ever I could relate to anything, it's when a machine or computer takes over and you, a human being, has to follow its lead. How many times have those user names and password prompt indicated that what I typed what invalid? How many times have I tried to select one item choice, and the website selected something totally different? The waiting on hold for a robot to argue with, the excessive menus in which we have to select from, it all makes you want to scream! There wasn't much dialog between Mulder and Scully, but this was one of the most witty and clever episodes ever. And the ending was perfect, two humans holding hands.
Wow what an outstanding episode! Everything was perfect... the cinematography, directing, editing, SFX, and the acting! Those machines deserve Oscar's lol. What was even more impressive, was how little dialogue was in this episode, yet still so much suspense! Mulder & Scully as usual were on point and the humor in this episode was perfect! Loved it! Perfect 10/10!
Is more like Black Mirror episode rather from X-files.
That probably why for X-files fans it might be not so interesting but by itself it fantastic. Writers did good job on showing us how fragile current tech ecosystem and how much should be improved before technology could be used without struggle. Even story-line of episode has some issues anyway it looks like something that might happen in real life.

Yes it's different, not the usual X-Files episode. I grew up with the 90's X-Files.
Be open-minded. Don't discard the episode just because it's different.
Even with the lack of dialogue it's hilarious and really gives you something to think about. This is our future with everything getting more and more robotized.
The moral of the episode: Be a good person and perhaps our future robots, AI:s, Androids, Synths, Cyborgs or whatever we´ll call them, will be good to us.

The only negative responses here were "its Black Mirror!" "its not the XFiles!". Thats because nothing about the actual content of the episode is bad.
