Abduction

From the Pilot to Tempus Fugit we have witnessed repeated abduction scenarios. Some are suggested to be the source of aliens, others suggest government involvement. So it is highly probable that there is some sort of partnership between extra-terrestrials and the U.S government. To find who abducted whom we must examine each individual abduction event.

• The abduction and experimentation of the class of '89 (see Pilot) seem to be the work of Japenese scientists (see Nisei/731). They use Billy Miles to gather others for the tests. However, the tests don't work and they use Billy to clean up after them. The corpse found in the grave looks very like the failed hybrids in "Anasazi". BUT...the nine minutes that Mulder and Scully 'lost' seems beyond the abilities of the conspiracy as we've seen and strongly suggests a genuine alien abduction.

• In 'Conduit' Ruby was abducted, it seems, by genuine aliens, since no medical experimentation has been attempted on her, and prolonged zero-g conditions may be beyond the abilities of the conspiracy or the Japanese scientists.

• 'Fallen Angel' introduces Max Fenig to us as an abductee. It seems Max has already been abducted (by the Japanese scientists) and become subject to some sort of implantation. Max's abduction is perhaps the more complicated of the rest but here's my theory: The invisible alien showed here is similar to the returned zoo animals in Fearful Symmetry and they seem to have been taken by the grey aliens, so maybe what we're seeing here is an invisible grey alien. The spaceship it was in was sent to abduct Max but it crashed so another spaceship came to retrieve the pilot and Max. What we see here, with the military and the aliens , is probably another battle between the grey aliens and the shapeshifter/conspiracy.

• Duane Barry, like Max Fenig, is known as a 'repeater'. However Duane seems almost definetely to have been abducted and experimented upon by the government. He has been taken by an advanced USAF (United States Air Force) craft and perhaps the staff were disguised as the grey aliens to make the story seem ridiculous.

• SCULLY was definetely abducted by the govt. as well. The second UFO that so frightens Barry is actually a helicopter so the first one probably was as well. The events in 731/Nisei also provide more evidence for this theory: The implant is Japenese make, Scully recognises Dr Zama from her abduction. Also in 'One Breath', Cancer Man admitted to abducting Scully. The abductors are using Scully's eggs to create the clones. When the implant is removed it seems to cause a side effect (cancer) or otherwise the cancer was caused by the radiation tests during her abduction.

• What has been described as one of the most complicated episodes yet one of the best is Jose Chung's "From Outer Space". Here the USAF disguise themselves as grey aliens and abduct citizens to experiment upon. The subject's memory is then erased. The pilot and his companion were in turn abducted by 'Lord Kinbote'. However, 'Lord Kinbote seems to be another creation from USAF to make sure witnesses' stories seem too bizarre ('Lord Kinbote' appears from the traingular UFO's flown by air force pilots seen in 'Deep Throat', indicating the govt.) Chrissy and her boyfriend were abducted by USAF as well and had their memories tampered with.

• In 'Tempus Fugit' Max returns only to be abducted again and killed. The grey aliens (who the govt. and the shapeshifters are at war against) abduct Max to retrieve their stolen energy source. This theory is backed up by the surprise on Max's potential assassin when the plane is intercepted and why the UFO was shot down.

• Could this all be a complete hoax? That it is what we are told in 'Redux' by a DoD employee, Michael Kritschgau and what Mulder, as we see in later episodes, firmly believed. What I will refer to as the "Kritschgau Theory" reveals to us that all the UFO sightings have really been secret experimental aircrafts. He goes on to explain that "the US military saw a good thing in '47 when the Roswell story broke. The more we denied it, the more people believed it was true. Aliens HAD landed! A made to order cover story for generals looking to develop the national war chest. They opened official investigations with names like Grudge, Twinkle, Project Blue Book, Majestic 12. They brought in college professors and congressmen, fed them enough bogus fact, enough fuzzy photos and eye-witness accounts that *they* belived it too." Another aspect of the Kritschgau Theory is that the alien abductions were also hoaxes involving the government. He says the alien abductions are a classified military project, above top secret, and still ongoing where citizens are taken unsuspecting and tested upon. The government denied that they were alien abductions and this caused even more wide spread belief that it was aliens, giving the government the perfect cover story for their abduction project. However I wouldn't go  as far  to believe  the Kritschgau theory, remember the tag line for this episode - "Believe the Lie"-? What I suspect is going on is this: I don't believe that Kritschgau is lieing to Mulder, I think that he has been fed lies by the conspiracy and he believed they were true, like he said Americans have an "appetite for bogus revelation" Also he explained that the abduction project was "above top secret", if it was this classified how did Kritschgau know about it? He doesn't even have access to Level 4, so he couldn't have been involved in it. I suspect some of what he has to say is true (I believe that there are government and alien abductions) except about the "no aliens" part. That is why they are "beautiful lies", remember  Deep Throat's words of wisdom: "a lie...is most convincingly hidden between two truths."As CSM tells Mulder "He's seen only scant pieces of the whole."

We get a glimpse of what really goes on behind the government abductions when Mulder sees those women in the DoD facility, looking very much like what Mulder imagined in Ascension and what Scully remembered during hypnoisis. It appears they are having their ova taken here. In 'Redux 2' we are shown that it really was the removal of Scully's implant that caused her cancer and now that she has had it reimplanted the impant has managed to control her cancer (this implant doesn't cure cancer for everyone, just Scully's cancer). Other proof that the government were responsible for giving her cancer are the tests Scully does that match her DNA with the ice core sample, which contains a chimeral hybrid which causes cells to divide and grow when placed with foetal material.
 
• In 'Emily' we find what exactly Scully's ova, taken during her abduction, was used for. It seems the conspiracy have created another hybrid, this time in the form of three year old Emily Sim. Emily has been brought into the world as an orphan whose surrogate mother is "Anna Fugazzi" (this is a fake record). She was adopted by Mr and Mrs Sim. Marshal Sim has allowed the pharmaceutical company, Prangen Industries, to conduct experiments on her in return for large amounts of money. Mrs Sim is later killed because she was against the experiments and her death was made to look like a suicide. Marshal Sim is also killed while being held in jail for the murder of his wife and his death also made to look like a suicide.

• In 'Patient X/Red and the Black' we are introduced to the multiple abductee Cassandra Spender. Cassandra believes that she was indeed abducted by aliens. This is only partly true though. She was definetly abducted, as she has the implant in her neck, by who though seems to be the question. She was probably abducted by the government and the shapeshifters together as the implant has been made by the government, yet she is called to the Ruskin Dam by the aliens (I think that maybe the rebel shapeshifters did this, or otherwise the colonising shapeshifters are advancing their plans without telling the consortium)      In 'The Red and the Black' Scully tells us through regression hypnosis  how Cassandra was once again abducted by a spaceship. Now I am quite sure that this is a spaceship belonging to the colonising shapeshifters as it attacked and killed the rebels just before it abducted Cassandra. I'm not sure whether this abduction was planned or whether they just thought 'well everyone's here, might as well abduct one of them' at the spur of the moment.

• Cassandra's son, Spender, also claims to have been abducted but I am inclined to agree with Spender's account that it was all a lie and that he had been greatly influenced by the stories told by his mother. Also, if he was abducted he would have been called to the Dam just like his mother as he would have had an implant like his mother. Since he didn't appear at the Dam, yes I even bothered to check, we can safely assume that he wasn't abducted.

• In these same episodes the Elders speak of Group Abductions, where abductees will be called together at sites and abducted. This is what we saw in Kazakhstan, Skyland mountain and the Ruskin Dam except no one was abducted, they were set on fire by the rebels. These can't be official group abductions, I suspect the rebels called them, as one of the Elders says that group abductions are 15 years down the road. According to Krycek these group abductions have to do with the beginning of colonisation. But this raises a number of questions: Why do these abductees have to be abducted again? What exactly does it have to do with colonisation? Why are these abductees so important? I have a theory, but it is a just a theory remember: These abductees are special in some way, maybe due to the experiments conducted upon them (perhaps they are immune to biological warfare or maybe the black oil), and the shapeshifters don't want them to die with the other humans when colonisation occurs and are therefore 'saving' them from "going the way of the dinosaur". They are saving them because these abductees are needed to be checked up on, to see if they are still immune, to see if their experiments are going alright so that soon they, the shapeshifters, will be able to put to use the methods they have used on abductees and use them on themselves so they will become the "master race". They also might need them if the abductees are the original models to the clones, in case the other clones go wrong and they need to use the original model to make new ones.

• The implant issue is also addressed in this two parter. Mulder confirms our belief that the implants are homing devices, used to track the government's test subjects or guide them to meeeting places for group abductions.

The genuine alien abductions are done by the grey aliens. The grey aliens seem to be peaceful as they always return the abductees and they don't put metal objects in them either or experient on them. The aliens seem to just want to see what kind of people us humans are and that's it. They have to watch out for the govt. though who want to kill them.
