Fox. Wake up! Fox!

- Samantha?
- Shh. They'll hear you.

She's my child!

Shh.

No!

That's my baby!

Get away!

I'm afraid, Fox. I'm afraid.

Hello?

- Scully.
- Mulder, what time is it?

I don't know.

It's almost 5 a.m. Is something wrong?

- I think so.
- Where are you?

I think I'm in a motel room
in Providence, but...

- Where?
- Rhode Island.

What are you doing there?

I don't know. There's...
There's blood all over me.

- Are you hurt, Mulder?
- I don't think so.

I don't think it's my blood.

Mulder?

Mulder?

Mulder?

Yeah?

You OK?

I can't get warm.

You're in shock.

Dry yourself off.

I'll get you a blanket.

- Do you feel sick?
- No.

Nauseous or dizzy?

No, but I woke up on the floor
with a pounding headache.

- Were you here alone?
- I think so.

I don't know.
I don't remember... anything.

Track my finger.

- Do you know what day it is?
- Uh...

- No, what day is it?
- It's Sunday.

- What's the last thing that you remember?
- I was... in my apartment.

I talked to you on the phone.

- That was Friday.
- I've been here since Friday?

I don't know, but you packed a bag.
There's a change of clothes in there.

Did you receive a blow to your head?

No. No.

- Did you take anything, Mulder?
- No. No.

- Are you sure you didn't out yourself?
- Yeah.

Where's your weapon?

I don't know.

Two rounds have been fired.

I don't remember that.

Mulder, I need to get you to a hospital.

You have to be examined by a neurologist.
You have had a serious cerebral event.

It could be a viral infection
or the early stages of encephalitis.

If there was a crime committed,
I need to know.

Mulder, the first thing you need to do
is to take care of yourself.

Mulder, listen to me.

We will figure this out,
but first we have to determine the cause.

You cannot take something like this lightly.

If this is an aneurysm,
it could drop you in a second.

- Are these your keys?
- No.

You checked in alone
around noon on Saturday.

The manager's got no record
of any phone calls

made from the room. No visitors.

- Then how did I get here?
- You drove.

He's got a license number
of a car registered.

Do you have those keys you found?

That's not my car.

There's blood
on the steering wheel, Mulder.

The car is registered to David Cassandra.
The address is here in Providence.

Who's Amy?

I'm gonna find out.
First I'm gonna check you out.

You have no business even walking around.

No. If I've shot someone, if my weapon's
been used in a crime, I need to know.

You are taking a big risk.
I feel strongly about this.

I know you do, but it's my risk.

- Can I help you?
- Are you Amy?

No, she's not here.

- Is this David Cassandra's house?
- This is David and Amy's house.

- And who are you?
- The housekeeper. Who are you?

We're with the FBI.

Is something the matter?

- Possibly. Is Amy or David reachable?
- They're out. I don't know where they are.

That, uh... painting behind you...

Do you think I could take a look at it?

Yeah.

- Who painted this?
- Amy

- Mulder, what's up?
- I know this house.

- How?
- I don't know. I've seen it before.

Does this house
have a special meaning to Amy or David?

It's her favourite subject.
It's the house she grew up in.

Actually, it's all she paints.

I've been to that house.

- When?
- I don't know, but I've been there.

Do you know anything else about it?

- It's out in Chepachet.
- Where's that?

It's about 20 miles from here on Route 8.

My parents had a summerhouse
out there when I was a kid.

If you've been here, Mulder,
I don't think it was recently.

The place looks abandoned
and completely overgrown.

Mulder?

Mulder?

Mulder, can you hear me?

Mulder?

Mulder?

How can you do this to our family?

You're a little spy.

No!

No!

Mulder?

Mulder, can you hear me?

- What happened?
- I don't know. It just hit me.

You grabbed your head
like you were in terrible pain.

You were completely non-responsive.

Do you remember any of that?

No.

- I remember what I saw.
- What do you mean?

I had a very vivid flashback
to my childhood... except I was there.

- Do you remember anything else?
- No, just that it was very real.

Your heart is racing.

What do you think it was?

It was some kind of seizure, some kind of
acute physiological disturbance.

I couldn't tell if you lost consciousness, but
it was definitely some kind of clonic event.

Kind of an electrical storm in the brain.

Brought on by what?

That's what a specialist
is gonna have to tell you.

I feel really good right now.

Mulder, you are not really good.

I think I've been here before.

What, in your childhood?

Maybe.

I don't think anybody has
lived here in a long time.

I'm gonna check upstairs.

Mulder.

There's a gunshot wound to her heart.

This must be Amy Cassandra,...

..and her husband.

They'd like to ask you some questions.
I told them about your condition.

You don't have to speak to them.

You mean not without my attorney present?

I refuse to believe you had any part in this.

I had their blood on my shirt.
I was missing for two days.

I have no recollection of my actions. There
were two rounds discharged from my gun.

I had the keys to this house,
the keys to their car.

Do the words "Orenthal James Simpson"
mean anything to you?

How're you feeling, Agent Mulder?

I'm a little confused.

Your partner says you're suffering
from some kind of seizure.

That you had one right here in the yard.

What brought you to this house?

I don't know. I, uh...

I think I came here as a kid.

You think?

My parents had a summerhouse
in Quonochontaug, so...

But you don't know anything
about David or Amy Cassandra?

I don't remember meeting them.

So, the first time you saw them...

..was when you walked into this house,

using their keys,
and you found them on the floor?

That's what I'm saying.

We got plenty of prints in that house,
some with blood on them.

We're gonna run those prints, Agent Mulder.

Is that the story you want to stick with?

For now.

Can you come to the station
and elaborate on that?

He's not going anywhere but to a hospital.

OK... but we're all
going down there together.

Agent Mulder, I'd like you to ride with us.

Mulder, I'd advise you
not to say anything more,...

..not until I take a look at those bodies
and the forensics reports.

Amy Anne Cassandra, Caucasian female.

Birth records indicate her age at 62 years.

The subject is 165 pounds,
67 inches in height.

Preliminary exam indicates cause of death
was a gunshot wound to the chest.

Powder burns at point of entry
four inches below the clavicle...

..indicate the shot was delivered
at point-blank range.

Beveling of the shoulder blade
is visible at the exit wound.

The surrounding tissue is jagged and torn.

- There are no other signs of trauma.
- Did you see this?

It looks like a pre-existing,
superficial puncture wound.

Do you mind?

- What are you looking for?
- I'm not sure.

Do you have a magnifying glass?

Thanks.

I want to make sure that
you do a craniotomy

and a histological examination.

- It's clear what killed these people.
- Yeah, but,...

..what I'm more interested in
right now is why they died.

What's that?

Have you jogged your memory at all?
You wanna change your story?

No. Why?

Because I have evidence here
that contradicts what you've told us.

I haven't really told you anything.

You said you haven't been
to that house since childhood,...

..that you didn't know
Amy or David Cassandra.

And what's in that bag
is evidence that I'm a liar?

I'd like to believe
this memory lapse was real...

..and you murdered these two people
in some fit of blind insanity.

- What's in the bag?
- It isn't your gun,...

..which, from forensics analysis,
seems to be the murder weapon,...

..judging from the slugs we pulled
and the execution-style point-blank range.

Is any of this coming back to you?

No.

- Can I see what's in the bag?
- Be my guest.

There are two blood types on that shirt.

One matching Amy Cassandra's,
one matching David Cassandra's.

Is that your shirt, Agent Mulder?

Yes.

Can you explain how the blood
of two people you claim not to know

got onto your shirt?

No.

What about the prints...

..in the house? Were they my prints?

You won't get a confession...

..because I can't answer your questions
because I don't remember.

You have the right to remain silent.
You give up the right to remain silent,...

..anything you say can and will be used
against you in a court of law.

You have the right to an attorney and have
an attorney present during questioning.

If you so desire and cannot afford one,...

..an attorney will be appointed for you
without charge before questioning.

Do you understand each of the rights
I have explained to you?

Mulder.

I'm gonna get you outta here.

You're a doctor, not a lawyer.

- Did you make a confession?
- No, only to my own ignorance.

Detective Curtis,
I need you to consider evidence...

..that I think casts doubt on Agent Mulder's
involvement in this crime.

- What kind of evidence?
- Medical evidence.

The toxicology report on Amy Cassandra...

..shows an anaesthetic
called ketamine in her system.

Ketamine? That's a veterinary drug, isn't it?

Yes, but when ingested by a person
it can cause hallucinations.

So?

So I went to the hospital
to go over Agent Mulder's blood work...

..and there are traces
of the same drug in his system.

- How would that get there?
- Probably injected.

There was a bruise from an injection
on Amy Cassandra's hip.

I think if you were examined again,
we would find the same puncture.

- Given by whom?
- I don't know,...

..but the presence of such a drug could
explain his memory loss or blackouts.

Given the weight
of all the other evidence,...

..I think that's all it explains.

Scully...

- You don't have to do this.
- Mulder, you have to help me out.

There is nothing here
that points to your guilt.

Unless somebody can show me

that you were holding the gun
that killed those people,...

..the rest of the narrative
is far too convenient and suspect.

The drug in your system
already suggests other explanations.

That I was partying
with a few senior citizens?

You're jailing an innocent man.

Well, this way he won't get lost
for two days

and do something else he won't remember.

Shot fired!

I'm a doctor!
Somebody call the paramedics!

He's dead.

I need to speak with Detective Curtis!

Did this officer have a history of depression
or mental illness?

He'd been remanded from his beat
assignment to a desk job a year ago.

His former partner had complained about
his tendency toward extreme irritability...

..and confabulation of the truth.

How do you mean?

He'd become something of a joke on the
force. One of those guys who believes in...

..extraterrestrials, stuff like that.

Do you see these photos?

- Yeah.
- Does this mean anything to you?

Should it?

I think it speaks
to a pronounced mental illness.

The compulsive and repetitive act

of removing his own image
from these photos...

..Ieads me to believe he not only believed
these stories but was traumatised by them.

You told me this was gonna help explain
something about your partner's crime.

What's that?

Amy Cassandra.

Both your officer and Amy Cassandra
had puncture wounds at the frontal lobe.

Amy Cassandra's was a deep puncture
through the cranium to the dura mater.

- My officer had the same thing?
- Yes.

I think your officer knew of Amy Cassandra,
and his suicide is linked to her death,...

..which leads me to believe
that we're not dealing with murder.

It's something else.
It's possibly even a suicide pact.

You're gonna have to prove that to me.

Not Samantha! Not Samantha!

No!

No, not my baby!

Guard!

Guard!

I need to talk to someone!

Guard!

According to the corrections officer,
he kept everybody awake last night.

He's demanding to talk to you.
He shut up about an hour ago.

Did he say about what?

I think your partner's memories
are coming back to him.

I need to talk to him alone,
if you don't mind.

- I heard you didn't get much sleep.
- I didn't kill those people.

I know that.

I think I've gathered enough evidence
of your innocence to get you out.

- From where?
- The forensics reports.

The, uh... The shirt you were wearing
did have the victims' blood on it,...

..but the blood splatter pattern
doesn't match the point-of-entry detail.

Detective Curtis has been able to put
together enough evidence...

..to make a press statement saying their
death was the result of a murder-suicide.

- But I was there.
- Yes.

And I still don't remember why.

I think I have an idea about that too.

Amy Cassandra believed
she was an alien abductee.

- And I contacted her?
- Yes. Apparently.

Amy had begun psychiatric treatment
that was effectively recovering her past.

The repetitive behaviour
exhibited in those paintings...

..was an expression of that treatment.

But why shoot herself and her husband?

I can't say definitively,
but judging from an identical suicide...

..of a police officer
receiving the same psychiatric care,...

..I believe the victims were suffering from
Waxman-Geschwind Syndrome,...

..the symptoms of which are
trance like states

leading to vivid dreams about the past.

Dreams that are more detailed
than the conscious mind can recall.

It's also called Dostoevsky's Syndrome
because the novelist suffered from it too.

What was I doing there
and why didn't I do anything to stop it?

I can't explain that.

I've arranged for your arraignment
in one hour.

By then Detective Curtis and I will have
enough forensics data for your release.

I still need to know why though.

This is the office of the psychologist
that treated Amy.

- Have you been here before?
- I don't know, but we found my car.

It's been here for a few days.

What's the psychologist's name?

Hello.

Dr Goldstein?

My name is Fox Mulder. Have we met?

I don't believe so.

My receptionist says you're from the FBI?

Yes, we're investigating
the deaths of Amy and David Cassandra.

Amy was a patient of yours?

Yes. Please, sit down.

I was very upset to learn about Amy.

A troubled woman who'd struggled through
an unfortunate period of darkness in her life.

Are you referring to her belief
that she was an abductee?

This term "alien abductee",

although I recognize
there is an associated syndrome...

..and a remarkable collection of shared
experiences for those who believe in it,...

..my treatment of Amy was an aggressive
method to access repressed memories.

How do you mean, "aggressive"?

My method of therapy simulates

an electrical impulse in the brain
using light and sound.

Did you use this treatment
on a police officer named Michael Fazekus?

Yes. Why?

He shot himself in the head last night.

Oh, my God.

Is this an accepted form
of medical treatment?

It's unconventional, but not invasive.

Are you familiar
with Waxman-Geschwind Syndrome?

Yes.

Did you know Amy Cassandra
suffered from it?

Waxman-Geschwind,
if you know anything about it,...

..is not necessarily a destructive condition.
Amy, after undergoing treatment,...

..had periods of extreme happiness
and creativity.

But you had no idea, you had no indication
she might have taken her own life?

No!

Of course not.

I have been in practice for over 40 years.

I have a very good ethical and professional
reputation, if you'd care to check.

That won't be necessary.

I know what you do.

I have been here before.
I met Dr Goldstein with Amy.

He's lying about more than that. I think
he administered ketamine to Amy and you.

I think that you were treated by him
and that your seizures are a result of that.

I think you're right.

Why would you do that? Why undergo
something as crazy and dangerous as this?

Mulder?

Mulder!

Mulder?

My baby!

Mulder?

I'm fine.

No. You do not belong at work. You need to
be somewhere where you can be monitored.

You are a danger to yourself
and a danger to me.

- Do you hear me?
- Gimme the car keys.

You're not doing anything
until these symptoms go away.

Scully, I don't want
these symptoms to go away.

Whatever's happening to me is allowing me
to go back into my unconscious.

The truth is in there
and I've gotten access to it.

What happened to my sister, the reason
she was taken, it's becoming clear to me.

- I need to know that. Give me the keys.
- To go where?

To my mother's in Greenwich.

OK. But I'm driving.

Fox!

I need to speak to you.

What's happened, Fox?

You've kept secrets from me.

- What's wrong with him?
- He's undergone a treatment.

He believes it's helped him
to remember things.

Remember what?

You said they took Samantha
because you had to make a choice.

But that's not how it happened.

It wasn't your choice to make.

What do you want to hear from me?

I wanna know what happened that night
and I need to speak to you privately.

You had a relationship with him.

- Who?
- You know who.

The man who worked with my father.

The man who forced you
to choose Samantha.

- No, Fox...
- Yes!

You betrayed my father, your husband.

Never!

How far back did it go?

How dare you!
How dare you come here and accuse me?

Who... is my father?

What do you want, to kill him again?

Just answer the question, Mom.
Just answer the question!

I am your mother, and I will not tolerate
any more of your questions!

You're bleeding, Fox.

What did you do to me?

- I told you...
- I asked you to treat me to recover my past.

- I did nothing wrong.
- You put a hole in my head.

- An electrical stimulation.
- You triggered my memory.

Yes, as you had hoped.

Now I want you to finish the job.

Let's do it.

I wanna remember.

You're a spy.

No! Fox?

Fox.

You're a spy.

- Where are they?
- Why?

Fox?

Not Samantha!

Fox!

Dr Charles Goldstein? You're under arrest.
Keep your hands where they are.

Bag those gloves as evidence.
Read him his rights.

Hands behind your back, please.

Where is he?

Mulder?

- Where's Mulder?
- He's not here.

Did you ask Dr Goldstein?

He wouldn't say one way or the other.

- Stop that car!
- Hey! Hold it!

Hold up! Hold up!

Open the back door.

What did you do to him?

I know he came back here.
This is the only place he would've gone.

Did you treat him?

Damn it! Answer me!

Yes.

- Where is he now?
- I don't know where he went.

What was the last thing he said?

He said he was going to
exorcise his demons.

- Agent Scully?
- Yeah.

Frank Imhof.

Hi. Is he in there?

Saw the light go on a couple minutes ago.
Gotta be somebody in there.

- We got here as soon as you called.
- All right.

The man in there is armed. He's a federal
officer in need of medical attention.

He is not himself.
Now I'm going in there.

If at any time he should flee that house,
you need to tell your officers not to shoot.

Mulder?

Leave me alone, Scully.

Mulder, it's me.

Scully, leave me alone.

Fox.

It's... all falling into place.

Put down the gun.

No, don't try to stop me.

Please, Mulder.

Wake up! Fox!

No! She's my baby!

I'm afraid, Fox. I'm afraid.

Get away!

Are you gonna shoot me?

Is that how much this means to you?

Mulder, listen to me. You have
been given a powerful hallucinogen.

You don't know that
these memories are yours.

This is not the way to the truth, Mulder.

- You've got to trust me.
- Shut up!

Put down the gun.

Let it go.

We've got shots fired! Move!

Cleared of any wrongdoing
in the deaths

of Amy and David Cassandra,...

..Agent Mulder still has no recollection
of the events that led to their deaths.

His seizures have subsided with no evidence
of permanent cerebral damage,...

..but I am concerned that this experience
will have a lasting effect.

Agent Mulder undertook this treatment
hoping to lay claim to his past,...

..that by retrieving memories lost to him,

he might finally understand
the path he's on.

If that knowledge remains elusive,

and if it's only by knowing
where he's been...

..that he can understand where he's going,
I fear Agent Mulder may lose his course,...

..and the truths he's seeking from his
childhood will continue to evade him,...

..driving him more dangerously forward
in impossible pursuit.

I made this!
