FBI doesn't need a link.
- Fixed
"of a Rockville, Maryland, clinic" misplaced comma

"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.

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

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)[reply]
