The Lone Gunmen, a spin-off of the popular series The X-Files, is a television show that aired on the Fox network, featuring the characters of the same name. The show first aired in March 2001 and, despite good reviews, was canceled due to a drop in ratings. The last episode aired in June 2001.

The debut of the show in March 2001, began with Byers' father faking his death to uncover a conspiracy to hijack an airliner. The Lone Gunmen try to get to the truth of his supposed death and uncover the conspiracy.

One retrospectively relevant aspect of this pilot episode is that the airliner has been hijacked (via remote control of the plane's autopilot) and, by the end, both Byers and his father have boarded the plane to try to stop the hijacking. Through the aid of the other Gunmen, they are able to regain control of the plane and just miss crashing into the World Trade Center with the airliner. This, of course, was before the actual September 11 attacks against the World Trade Center later that year. Similar to theories posited about the events of 9/11, the episode's plot indicates that the hijacking was committed as an act of voracity by a greedy American arms manufacturer to ultimately increase its weapons sales by invoking U.S. retaliation against a scapegoated anti-American extremist dictator.

The Lone Gunmen | Season 1, Episode 1


Sort:  

The plot was taken from a Tom Clancy(Steve Pieczenik/CIA) novel I heard someone one of the actors tell in an interview.

Actually one of the main actors of the show was approached by 3 CIA agents who told him that they were a big fan of his role in the X-Files and loved how his character was named Langley (named after the location of the CIA headquarters). They they went on to tell him he should get his X-Files crew back together and make a spin-off series, and then continued to tell him a possible plot for an episode. He then took this plot and new show idea to X-Files creator Chris Carter who agreed to create the swin-off series which became the Lone Gunmen, and the plot that was told to them by the 3 CIA agents became the plot of the pilot episode I mentioned above.

And that plot was previously published in a Tom Clancy book, which are written by CIA agents or hired assets. Steve Pieczenik said he wrote large parts of many of the Clancy Books, Tom Clancy was just a author brand by the CIA. So we agree, it came from the CIA.
Dean Haglund aka Langley spoke about it in an interview. Not that that means it is absolute proof, but that it is the official version about where the plot originated.
"Plane flown into capitol building is a main plot point of Tom Clancy's "Debt of Honor" (1994, novel)"
