This
fantastic episode begins when Scully receives terrible news of her father's
death just seconds after she caught a vision of him sitting in a chair. This
leaves Scully vulnerable to what lies ahead in a reverse of roles where this
time, Mulder is the skeptic.
After Lucas Henry, a horrible serial killer, kidnaps again, a
skeptical Mulder and Scully go to visit Luther Lee Boggs who is being held on
death row after Mulder put him there. Boggs claims to have a pyshic connection
with Henry and claims he can locate the kidnapped teenagers. Mulder thinks he
just wants to be free in return for his ability.
After hours of pyshic 'transmissions' involving Boggs are located near
'an angel stone' and 'a waterfall...but not a waterfall...not water', M & S
leave but Scully hears a terrible sound. Boggs starts singing 'Beyond The Sea'
(the song played at Captain Scully's funeral) and when Scully turns she sees
another vision of her father. Is her mind playing tricks on her?
On the way home, Scully sees an angel stone and a neon light of a
waterfall and stops her car. Here she finds a site described exactly by Boggs,
the site where the kids were held. Scully is now convinced he has a power but
Mulder does not. Even so, they go back to the prison and now get information on
the teenager's present location. The two agents go to check it out but Mulder is
shot, just like Boggs predicted. Mulder is sent into hospital in critical
condition.
Later on, Boggs is able to find the teenagers with his pyshic power
but this is not enough as he is still sent to the gas chamber and is killed.
Whether he had a pyshic power or not we will never know but we are sure of one
thing, Scully CAN open her mind to extreme possibilities.
