I think it’s from Firewalker? Mulder was very concerned about whether she was ready to be back at work in that one as it was right after the abduction arc

I thought that was probably the case because it felt like such a natural moment between them

Poor Gillian having to work when she was that heavily pregnant, can’t believe she only got one week off in total

Really? I thought she had way more time off considering a lot of the episodes in the beginning of S2 were recorded in advance. That’s brutal if she only got a week off.

I mean I’m assuming it would only have been one week as she only skipped the one episode from season 2, and my understanding is that episodes took about 7 days to film? She was at least mostly lying down or sitting in the boat in One Breath, but then Scully was right back to active duty in the episodes after that

Yes but if you look at the date her daughter was born, it would mean she had way more time off - maybe four weeks. When did Scully come back in S2?

One Breath and Firewalker both aired in November, so I guess that means she was back for filming in October in order to get those episodes out on time? Piper was born in September, and then there was still the six episodes that they filmed at the beginning of season 2 before her time off with the episode 3

Well the way I interpreted it, her daughter was born between The Host and Blood. Scully was abducted in Duane Barry which I assumed was already filmed, meaning Gillian had all that time until One Breath off.

I don’t really know, I never heard about them filming any of season 2 out of order though, the story I always heard was that Gillian only had the one episode off with 3. With the list of the episodes air dates, it doesn’t look like she would have had any extra weeks off when it’s such a tight filming schedule as it is, and they have to film quite a few weeks in advance of their air dates I believe
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_X-...on_2)#Episodes When you look at the episode air dates all one after the other without a break, it just doesn’t seem like it would have been possible for her to get four weeks off in that time __________________

I just thought all those episodes were filmed before she had her baby that’s why.

She was still pregnant during the filming of Ascension from what I remember, I think they talked in the commentary about it being difficult to film Scully in the trunk of the car when she was abducted? I guess she didn’t have to film many scenes in that one at least, but geez it just seems so inhumane that she didn’t get a few months off to spend with her newborn. The filming schedule for The X-Files was crazy with 25 episodes, it doesn’t look like they even had much of a Xmas break compared to shows today taking well over a month off
