Why does Valentine's Day suck?? Because my beloved Jeffrey Spender was murdered by his father in his own office at The Federal Bureau of Investigation, and no one noticed. This is my tribute to Jeffrey Spender.

I didn't care much for Spender when he first came on because he was being a brown-nosing little weasel! But I look back now and realize that he didn't mean any harm. Sure, he said "No Agent Mulder, your days are numbered." but hey! He helped him in the end!

I can understand why people don't like Spender too much... but if you still don't have a heart for him after veiwing Two Fathers and One Son, you should read what I have to say. If you still don't feel like you like him... that's ok, at least you actually read what I had to say and actaully came to a page called "My Spender Tribute".

Reasons Why I Love Jeffrey Spender:

• Maybe it's just me, but I seem to like the people who start off bad, and still love them after they turn good.
  
• He only thinks he was doing a good job because the Cigarette-Smoking Man (his father... if we can call him that) brain washed him.
  
• Observe... in Two Fathers he didn't kill the alien... he wanted out... he wanted to live his own life!
  
• He cares so much for his mother. After Cassandra was taken in Patient X, poor Jeffrey was devistated. He only wanted his mother back. He didn't want his reputation given to him... he wanted to build one. Even Skinner liked him to an extent.
  
• In the episode Two Fathers, when Spender finally is reunited with his mother, he was so caring. He was protecting him. I known that some people out there didn't like the fact that he didn't want Mulder to talk to Cassandra. Do you really blame him?? If my mother was missing for a year, I wouldn't want some one to talk to her and push her in to answering odd questions.
  
• In the episode One Son, Spender helped Marita... to the best that he could... we don't know if she got out or not, or even if she is still alive, but at least he tried.
  
• Also in One Son, he gets the x-files back to Mulder and Scully. He admits to every wrong he has done. Then he goes to empty his desk out. But he nobely died for Mulder and Scully. Taken out by the hand of his own father :::sniff::: (which never airs anymore in my house ps and by the way.)
  
• Let's just face it.... he's just too darn cute and adorable!

Thank you very much for reading my rant.
