7x08 The Amazing Maleeni

Wish I could have seen their faces when they realized Mulder foiled their final act.

This episode >>>> "Now you see me..."

This is a pretty fun episode... although that ending. Yet again our pseudo-stalwart protagonists of sorts are portrayed as corrupt. This show loves to break the golden rule: Always follow the rules of your world.

Really liked this episode about two magicians who team up to rob a bank and frame an old enemy, baffling and impressing Mulder and Scully. It's not about anything alien or supernatural. It's just a caper of sorts. Mulder the super sleuth, who often nails the details a little too easily, figures out what's going on.

You kinda wonder why they haven't done a magic episode early on. I remember a show that aired on FOX network where a masked magician reveals a lot of secrets behind some famous magic tricks. I forget the name of that one.
