Big Ship


How'd he know exactly where to find her? Did he have blue prints?

I thought the same thing.

I thought the Well-Manicured Man, gave him Scully's location in Antarctica, along with a vaccine to combat the virus that has infected her. He seems to spend a good time searching for her before actually finding her.🐭

He didn't. He was given coordinates to the ship's location but not to Scully exactly. He got VERY lucky, which is no different than most movies. Heroes usually get very lucky like this and we are meant to suspend our disbelief on the improbability. Which, let's be fair, is pretty easy here. We know he went to save her and he was going to do that no matter what, so what if he lucked into finding her in the ship.

Okay so Muldur goes to the coordinates he is given by Mr. Syndicate and he discovers the coordinates lead him to the middle of nowhere, Antarctica. Nothing around but snow and mountains.

There's nothing there but he sees a slight rise, so he gets out of the vehicle and runs up the hill, lo and behold he sees not only a small base with vehicles and people around, but he sees the Cigarette Smoking Man then knowing that what Mr. Syndicate told him was true.

So Muldur head out to the base, after CSM leaves with the other guy, and falls into a Crevasse.

Now in reality, Muldur falling into this crevasse would have spelled the end of his life as he would have been trapped for the rest of his life with no one ever finding him. I mean what are the chances he'd fall near the UFO ventilation area, but he does. So he sees a small hole in the floor of the crevasse and jumps in--something that would take me a while to even consider doing, because after all, what if this hole leads to nothing but a really tight hole that I'd get stuck in.

The only thing worse than getting stuck in a crevasse is getting stuck in a really small hole. But somehow, the hole turns out to be the UFO ventilation system so Muldur gets into the ship.

Getting to the point, Muldur explores a bit, pulls out his binoculars and finds Scully's pod. Inside the pod is Scully's clothing and her cross, he knows for sure she is in here. He goes to the nearest pod chamber area, looks around a bit, and finds her. Injects the serum and voila, the aliens have no hold on her anymore, leave her body, and start firing up UFO systems to get off this planet.

Muldur takes Scully up and out of the UFO, but can't get away fast enough, so they start going up along with the ship, when suddenly they slide down over the edge into the snow. Scully doesn't look as the ship leaves the area, but Muldur sees the whole thing. The confirmation he had been looking for regarding Alien visitation, spacecraft, and them being on the Earth the whole time is there.

Yes, the movie went from ridiculous to super-ridiculous at this point. He'd never find anything in Antarctica except frostbite and death. And I totally agree with you about falling into the crevasse - he'd be a done deal - he'd never get out, and even if he was miraculously able to locate Scully, wake her from the frozen sleep, drag her out and revive her, she would never be able to move - hell, she'd be lucky not to die of hypothermia if she wasn't already dead from her cells having been frozen - and if he had to carry her he'd never get away from the aliens. I mean, come on! Do these filmmakers know how hard it would be to clamber on ice? Forget how hard, try how impossible! This movie was total nonsense - the second one was better, and didn't it play out as if this one never happened? Wasn't Mulder still wondering what happened to his sister in the sequel?
