Were you able to spot them all?
Wednesday nights episode particularly played with real-life history, but cleverly filtered it all through the shows conspiratorial lens.
Lets count down the best Easter eggs.
Havent we seen Reggie already?
First, lets get a pre-Easter egg (an Ash Wednesday egg?)
out of the way.
It wasnt Fox, Dana, or even Doggett (where the heck is Doggett?
), but Reggie!
Does this mean that Reggies rant about being forgotten in The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat is true?
What other explanation could there be for his ID being on file?

Maybe he never had one.
Of course, Morgan didnt pick the stinkers.
(And was already calling his FBI partner Foxy.)
Fun fact: Unusual Suspects was written by the now-legendary Vince Gilligan ofBreaking Badfame.

Small PotatoesThis Easter egg is one of the best inX-Fileshistory because it works onsomany levels.
But instead of just being a sideline player as he is in the other clips, Reggie shoots him.
Thats the writer being shot by his own delusional creation!
ButThe Outer Limitstotally is.)

Is this a reference to an episode thats deconstructing the show itself?
