Summary: Mimi Rogers and Chris Carter discuss Diana Fowley for the Season 5 DVD set.

Mimi Rogers: "When I came on the show, I remember it was the very - it was the last episode that was shot in Canada, and it was the season finale, and I think Chris had told me it was a character they wanted to have recur."

Chris Carter: "Mimi Rogers was David Duchovny's idea, and it was a great idea, and also I think that the reason Mimi Rogers did it was because of David Duchovny - they had worked together previously. She had the physical stature, bearing, (??) that we needed for the character - she was ultimately going to be a villain. And she was believable as a former love interest of Mulder's."

Mimi: "When David and Chris called me, they told me about the character, you know, they said she was a character out of Mulder's past and that she was another FBI agent and that, you know, it was going to be a very femme fatale-ish role, you know, it had elements of not knowing which way she was going to go. So I found that very appealing."

[CUT TO MULDER AND DIANA IN THE END]

Mulder: "I've done okay without you."

Diana: "Hey. I'm on your side."
