Rhythm is a recurring theme. Beyond the music these include: 1) opening scene, sound of water dripping from faucet starts before video starts and continues on 2) the slide projector changing slides 3) at the hospital the nurse that hands Skully the medical file is tapping her pencil 4) the cord on her blinds is tapping the wall 5) the heart monitor in Dr Waterson's room 6) Skully's turn signal when she's talking to Mulder on her cell phone 7) The Apothecary sign squeaking more
Crew or equipment visible: When Scully is reanimating her friend in the hospital, when the camera rotates and the scene becomes visible from behind Scully, you can see a hand of a crew member. more
Scully: Time passes in moments... moments which, rushing past, define the path of a life, just as surely as they lead towards its end. How rarely do we stop to examine that path, to see the reasons why all things happen, to consider whether the path we take in life is our own making... more

All things is a very good episode even if it is not so much an X-File. While it is not necessarily my usual choice of entertainment (ie a little too new age-ish) I still enjoy learning about Scully in this episode. They way I see it there's some kind of guardian angel that is causing seemingly random events so that Scully can learn a lesson and realize what she is supposed to be doing with her life. I love that part where the ponytailed girl turns into Mulder and he's wearing the Stone Henge Rocks cap. What a nerd. This also serves as a confirmation for Scully that she is doing the right thing with her life since she is led back to Mulder at the end. Another high point for this episode is the awesome "The Sky is Broken" by Moby. I love that song and I love the scenes where they play it and show Scully walking in slow motion down the street with the flowers dangling at her side. I give this episode an 8/10.
