Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the first name of forrester Moore who is assisting the agents on the case?

Answer: Larry

He introduces himself when meeting the agents. The role was played by Jason Beghe, David Duchovny's old buddy. The filming was extremely difficult, so Beghe and Duchovny tried keeping the mood light with their friendly demeanor and jokes.

2. What tree contained the ring with the green bugs?

Answer: Douglas fir

Doug Spinney says that after a particular Douglas fir was cut, men began dying. The forester collects a core sample from the stomp to discover the green bugs.

3. Who fixed the generator?

Answer: Humphries

Humphries fixed it while the agents were searching for loggers in the woods and then told everyone about it too.

4. What lumber company did the missing lumberjacks work for?

Answer: Schiff-Immergut

Steve Humphreys, the head of the company security, introduces himself upon arrival and mentions the company name.

5. Who was in charge of the lumberjack crew that went missing?

Answer: Perkins

This is stated in the opening scene where Perkins and Dyer are arguing about what should they all do next to save themselves. Despite being in charge, Perkins agrees to Dyer's proposal to split up and run off into the woods.

6. Who directed the episode?

Answer: Joe Napolitano

This was Joe Napolitano's second (after "The Jersey Devil") and final directing job for "The X-Files". Napolitano's conflict with the producers was the primary contributor to the split.

7. Which of these colors was NOT on the jacket Scully wore during the trip?

Answer: Yellow

There was no yellow color. While Mulder is wearing the same dark-green jacket with blue lining and removable hood he wore in "Ice", Scully's colorful outfit appeared only once in the entire show.

8. Concentration of what chemical was found in the survivors' lab test results?

Answer: Luciferin

The doctor tells Mulder that test results showed a concentration of luciferin which is found in fireflies. The luminescent bugs were primarily created through CGI, although the images were microscopic photos of mites.

9. In what forest does most of the episode take place?

Answer: Olympic National Forest

The episode takes place in Olympic National Forest in Washington. Similar to all other episodes of the first five seasons where some action takes place in a forest, "Darkness Falls" was filmed in Seymour National Reserve in British Columbia.

10. What is the name of Doug Spinney's fellow eco-terrorist?

Answer: Steven Teague

Mulder says his name when he shows the photo of Spinney and Teague to Scully during the debriefing in the office. Teague never actually appears in the episode. Other answer options are characters from other episodes.
