From Quiz 2.8 "One Breath"

Melissa was a new-age free spirit, and she had brought a crystal to help Scully. She told Mulder that she was in contact with Scully's soul, and that "Dana was choosing whether to remain or move on". Melissa was portrayed by Melinda McGraw, who may be better known to "NCIS" fans as Diane Sterling, ex-wife of Gibbs and Fornell.

After the closure of the X-Files, Scully was teaching medical classes at the FBI while Mulder was assigned to a bank fraud investigation which he felt was just busy work since he already had enough evidence to close the case.

He was distracted however and didn't reply. When he got to his desk, he saw the picture of his sister Samantha face down on the desk with a "Post-It" note stuck to it.

From Quiz 2.20 "Humbug" III

Answer: nothing

When Scully opened the chest, the back door to the room opened as an exit from the museum, but there was nothing in the box itself. Apparently, Barnum really had such a set up. He had a sign pointing to what he called "The Egress". Visitors assumed it would be another interesting exhibit and went through the door, but were just led to an exit. They then had to pay another admittance fee to re-enter the museum. Perhaps if the visitors had been more thoughtful, they wouldn't have had to waste their money; "egress" is a path for going out! (Thanks to tvtome.com for that info.)
