Episode Notes
 
In the episode, Scully check the license plate, CC1356 over the phone. CC1356, is actually a subtle reference to series creator/writer Chris Carter. CC stands for the initials of his name and 1356 is the day (13) and year (1956) he was born.
 
The house which appears at the beginning of the episode is the same house which was used in the series Millennium.
 
Mulder's informant, whose name is Deep Throat, is actually named after the mysterious informant during the Watergate Scandal.
 
 
Episode Quotes
 
Paul: Hi. Are you the F.B.I agents? I'm Paul Mossinger. I work for the local paper. You guys are looking into this Budahas thing?
Mulder: We're just looking around.
Paul: I got you. Right. A lot of people here are just looking around. Ufo nuts mostly, but it's not everyday we get F.B.I.
 
Man in Black: Please step out of the car.
Mulder: (turning to Scully) Do you think if we ignore them they'll go away?
Man in Black: Please step out of the car.
Mulder: Guess not.
 
Scully: Just because I can't explain it, doesn't mean I'm gonna believe they were UFOs.
Mulder: Unidentified Flying Objects, I think that fits the description pretty well. Tell me I'm crazy.
Scully: Mulder, you're crazy.
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
When both, Mulder and Scully are being driven off the road by the National Security agents, the persons in the car can be clearly seen as the stunt doubles.
 
The Colonel that Scully and Mulder confronted at his home didn't have his rank on his shirt, although he was in the Air Force.
 
When one of the Men in Black removes the magazine from Scully's gun, there is only one round in it. A trained agent like Scully wouldn't only have one round in the magazine.
