Episode Quotes

Pam: Don't you see? We're all in hell.
Pam: I'm the only one who knows it.

Fox Mulder: I know, I missed the meeting.
Dana Scully: No, you didn't *miss* the meeting; you're extraordinarily *late* for the meeting. It's still going on.
Fox Mulder: What are you doing down here?
Fox Mulder: We took a short break and I came looking for you. What are *you* doing down here, Mulder?
Fox Mulder: Having the best damn day of my life. Any moment I'm about to burst into song. Zip-a-dee-doo-dah. My water bed sprung a leak and shorted out my alarm clock; my cellphone got wet and crapped out on me; and the check I wrote my landlord to cover the damages is going to bounce unless I deposit my pay. Did you ever have one of those days, Scully?
Dana Scully: Since I've been working here? Yeah.

Fox Mulder: Cover for me, will you?
Dana Scully: When have I not?

Mistakes/Goofs

Goof (factual errors): Mulder's waterbed is shown with a leak spraying water in the air. This might happen if one or more people were lying on the bed or pressing down on the mattress, but the fountain continues to spray when he is out of the bed. Waterbed leaks don't spray so much as ooze. Furthermore, the amount of water lost to cause the degree of saturation on the carpet (not to mention leaking into the apartment below) would mean that the bed would have lost most or all of its water, leaving Mulder waking up lying on the bottom of the mattress box.
Goof (continuity error): In the episode "Monday", Mulder's Omega watch displays the time and the day of the week. In the episode "Arcadia" it displays the time and the date.
Goof (errors in geography): The episode takes place in Headquarters in Washington DC but in the scene when Mulder is walking to the bank, Los Angeles City Hall is clearly shown in the background

Trivia

Scully's comment, "when did you get a water bed?", refers back to an earlier episode in season 6 'Dreamland II', when Morris Fletcher bought himself a new water bed, thinking he would be living the rest of his life in Mulder's body and put it in Mulder's bedroom. Mulder has no memory of those events so has no idea where he got his water bed from!
Mulder is shown wearing an Omega watch.
