- The episode where Scully's cancer is diagnosed is a direct and shameless heartstring-twister from start to finish. It works.
- The scene in Redux II where Scully tries to get Mulder to pin the death of a man he killed on her - because she doesn't want him to go to prison, and she's going to die soon anyway. The look on Mulder's face is just heartbreaking.
- The Unnatural, baseball, fun loving aliens, the gospel and song and finally It's just blood .
- The last twenty minutes of "Emily."
- The ending of the episode "The Post-Modern Prometheus".
- The end of "Millennium"..
"The world didn't end..." |
- The final scene of "Existence".
- The episode "Trustno1", especially the e-mails between Mulder and Scully (poor Mulder just wants to come home) always make this troper tear up.
- And let's not forget the tear-jerking scenes from the "Within/Without" episodes, notably when Scully goes to Mulder's apartment, finds his shirt and falls asleep on his bed clutching it tightly.
- The episode "Roland" was heartrending, especially the end where Roland leaves his home and gives Tracy his jar with the stars.
- The end of "Closure," where Mulder finally comes to terms with Samantha's disappearance. The fact that this Moby song is playing in the background probably increases the sadness tenfold.
- Whenever Scully breaks up, chances are it's going to be a Tear Jerker. Just look at the ending of "Irresistible".
- The ending of "Release", with Doggett and his wife spreading their son's ashes into the ocean.
- Pretty much all of "Kaddish" especially the story behind the wedding ring.
- When Doggett's amnesia in "John Doe" gets broken by the memory of his murdered son. It's the only time we ever see him cry.
- The ending of "Hungry".
