• FBI doesn't need a link.
  • Fixed
• "of a Rockville, Maryland, clinic" misplaced comma
  • Fixed
• "Mulder handcuffs him and places him at gunpoint" The part after this doesn't explain how the bounty hunter got out of his cuffs.
  • I'll rewatch the episode to be sure, but I think it doesn't actually show it. The bounty hunter is a shapeshifter after all, my assumption was that he could slip out of then; but I'll make sure of that now.
• "Spotnitz, who came up with the idea to bring back Samantha Mulder in the previous episode wrote this episode" sounds clunky, in "Colony" wrote this ep...?
  • Fixed
• "According to Spotnitz, he along with Chris Carter were" He, along with Chris Carter, were
  • Fixed
• Is "insanely ambitious" a quote? If so put it in quote marks, if not change the wording.
  • Fixed
• "the production crew asked for a higher budget to support the series" What was the result of this, you haven't told us much if we don't know what came about after this was asked.
  • I've removed that line for now - I don't have access to that commentary, and although I know the budget for the series went from $1 million for the pilot to around $2.5 million an episode later, I have no idea when or why it increased.
• "more of a "suspense thriller" than anything else" than any other genre sounds more professional.
  • Fixed
• "that it lead"... led, lead is for present tense.
  • Fixed
• "One hundred forty tons" and forty tons.
  • Fixed
• There is one dablink: gimlet.
  • Fixed
• Unlink United Kingdom.
  • Fixed
• Could the Reception section be expanded a little? There must be a few more reviews online.
  • Fixed as much as I could - finding reliable reviews for this is a bit tricky - for season one I had at least three per episode but one of those sources stopped at season one, leaving me with two at a time unless I find something here and there for different episodes. Unfortunately "End Game" doesn't seem to be one of those with extra material out there. :(
• Take care of the gap between recep and footnotes.
  • Fixed

Great work, as usual, Aranea Mortem ^{(talk to me)} 16:19, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for taking the time to review this. I think I've caught everything now, and I'll be putting on the episode again to double check that handcuff thing. GRAPPLE X 17:03, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
