i cannot believe magic mushrooms got into mainstream tv! the whole episode was basically an advert for the shrooms and indeed they give good experiences and knowledge about oneself, universe and "god" than what human kind does in this realm engaging in constant hate and wars, and being fed by media about stupid things that basically waste time.
although these experiences could be tough and not be taken lightly or with mixture of alcohol and other substances.

mineistaken, they haven't went anywhere, their minds or souls got connected or it all happened in Mulder's mind, each interpreted things their own way, but we'll never know if that guy on life support felt or experienced anything at the same time, most likely he didn't feel anything, just like agent Einstein didn't recollect a memory popping into Mulder's trip with a whip to remind him why he was there right before a psychedelic trip kicked in in full force.

i am assuming their souls (whatever that may be) i'm leaning towards psyche/consciousness though, somehow got connected, otherwise that guy on life support would have never said anything about babylon hotel. although it may be possible Mulder just picked up that guys energies/frequencies and basically read his mind, thoughts or memory and it came out as visual interaction in the trip.

good episode, but felt it kind of being rushed in the second half before the ending dialog.


dina mo you are right, if i watched the episode before i would have just said to watch it again in response to your question and we would still have ended up in this derailed thread of mess somehow.
placebo was the least important thing in the episode lol
i wonder what those pills were, but think somewhere at the end Mulder mentioned being on shrooms, so it could have been grinded shrooms or psilocybin extract, or could've it been something else?
