"all things" is the 17th episode of the seventh season of American science fiction television series The X-Files. It was written and directed by lead actress Gillian Anderson. The episode first aired in the United States and Canada on April 9, 2000 on the Fox Network, and subsequently aired in the United Kingdom and Ireland on Sky1. "The episode is a "Monster-of-the-Week" story, unconnected to the series' wider mythology. "all things" earned a Nielsen household rating of 7.5, being watched by 12.18 million people in its initial broadcast. The episode received mixed critical reception but was well received by fans.

The show centers on FBI special agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) who work on cases linked to the paranormal, called X-Files. In this episode, Scully is led by coincidences to a married man with whom she had an affair during medical school, and a look at the life she did not choose, forcing her to make choices about her future.

"all things" marked the first time series star Gillian Anderson had written an episode of The X-Files. Originally, Anderson's draft was fifteen pages too long and did not feature a fourth act, but after working with series creator Chris Carter and executive producer Frank Spotnitz, the script was finalized. The episode also marked the directing debut for Anderson. The cast and crew helped Anderson adjust to directing and were happy with the finished product. Anderson's directing style was later described as "right on the money". Furthermore, the episode has been analyzed for its themes of pragmatism and feminist philosophy.

George Harrison,MBE (25 February 1943 – 29 November 2001) was an English musician and singer-songwriter who achieved international fame as lead guitarist of The Beatles. Often referred to as "the quiet Beatle", Harrison became over time an admirer of Indian culture and mysticism, and introduced it to the other Beatles, as well as their Western audience. Following the band's break-up he was a successful solo artist, and later a founding member of the Traveling Wilburys. Harrison was also a session musician and a film and record producer. He is listed at number 11 in Rolling Stone magazine's list of "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time".

Although most of The Beatles' songs were written by Lennon and McCartney, Beatle albums generally included one or two of Harrison's own songs, from With The Beatles onwards. His later compositions with The Beatles include "Here Comes the Sun", "Something" and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps". By the time of the band's break-up, Harrison had accumulated a backlog of material, which he then released as the triple album All Things Must Pass in 1970, from which two hit singles originated: a double A-side single, "My Sweet Lord" backed with "Isn't It a Pity", and "What Is Life". In addition to his solo work, Harrison co-wrote two hits for former Beatle Ringo Starr, as well as songs for the Traveling Wilburys—the supergroup he formed in 1988 with Jeff Lynne, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and Roy Orbison.
