Episode Guide Season One
Every X-Files episode, from the pilot to the present, is rated on a one-to-five heart scale of shippiness. Eps are also rated on the one-to-five star rating system for overall quality.

The little above and beyond by some episodes in later seasons indicates that a castmember of "Space: Above and Beyond" was in the ep. A cringe indicates a particularly scary ep. strike indicates not a bad ep but an anti-Shippy ep.

FIRST SEASON

PILOT heartheartheartstarstarstarstar
The UST is so thick you could cut it with a scalpel. Famous Scully/underwear/motel room/blackout/candlelight /heart-to-heart talk scene (If you've no clue what I'm referring to, you have no business calling yourself a shipper).

DEEP THROAT star
Nothing, absofreakinglutely nothing.

SQUEEZE heartheart' src=starstarstar
A little MulderJealousy/protectiveness.

CONDUIT
Nothing.

THE JERSEY DEVIL heart
Scully goes out on a date with a very nice man and discovers -- He's BORING!

SHADOWS starstar
A great deal of witty repartee that some might construe as UST, but alas, is not.

GHOST IN THE MACHINE heartstar
Minimal UST.

ICE heartheartheartstarstarstarstar
Can you say "UST"? The claustrophobic nature of this ep accentuates the tension between Mulder and Scully.
S:Then why didn't you let Hodges examine you?
M: (whispered with great feeling, gazing deep into Scully's terrified eyes) I don't trust them! I want to trust you.
S: Well, they're not here right now.(they examine each other's necks.......)
It's rather amusing to note that Scully looks about ten years old in this ep.

SPACE
Not even worth the film stock it was printed on, there's so little to this one.

FALLEN ANGEL heart
Mild UST. "The enigmatic Dr. Scully" -- Max Fenig

EVE star
Entertaining ep, but nothing in the way of UST.

FIRE heartheartheartheartstarstarstar
Enough UST to kill a lesser shipper. Scully gets very jealous of Phoebe Green, Mulder's manipulative, bitchy, evil ex-girlfriend... AND gets to see ol' Spooky in nothing but BLACK SILK BOXERS (Okay, Verbal, stay out of the Muldergutter...).
M: I was only extending a professional courtesy.
S: Oh, is that what you were extending?

BEYOND THE SEA heartheartheartstarstarstarstarcringe
There's so much in this ep I can't list it all. Scully's father dies; Mulder caresses her cheek and calls her "Dana" for the first time, there's a lot of heart-to-heart talking in this one.
S: (to Luther Lee Boggs, voice shaking) If he dies because of what you've done, no one will be able to stop me from being the one to throw the switch and gas you out of this life for good you sonofabitch!!!!! (Can you say "love"?)

GENDERBENDER heartstarstar
A little UST, not much.

LAZARUS strikestriekstrike
AAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Please! Somebody erase the memory of this ep from my mind!!!!! The most PAINFUL moment in this entire episode is when Scully is trying to make Jack Willis remember a weekend they spent together in a cabin, snowed in. They ran out of firewood and he had to wrap her in a blanket..... The implications of THEM -- TOGETHER -- ALONE -- FOR A WEEKEND -- are terrifying. Whoever played Willis, he's ugly too. YIKES.

YOUNG AT HEART
Nothing.

E.B.E.
No data yet.

MIRACLE MAN
Nothing.

SHAPES
Nothing.

DARKNESS FALLS heartstarstar
All that great UST potential, and they didn't use it!

TOOMS heartheartstarstarstar
Famous iced tea/root beer conversation. Scully tries to call Mulder "Fox" but he won't let her.
S: (to M) You're the only one I'd put myself on the line for."

BORN AGAIN
Nothing.

ROLAND heart
M:Did you catch the bouquet?
S: (enigmatic smile) Maybe.

THE ERLENMEYER FLASK heartstarstarstar
Despite being nominated for an Edgar Award by the Mystery Writers of America, this ep isn't actually that good. Minimal UST levels.
