Back to normal with this episode if normal can be a word associated with the X-Files. As Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) investigate the case of eugenics after an employee at a research facility kills himself after being subjected to sounds no one else hears. Mulder manages to sneak out the phone of Doctor Sanjay (Christopher Logan) and Scully warns him about how that's illegal following a court ruling. He tells her that Sanjay was a victim not a suspect and she says he committed suicide. He meets with Gupta (Vik Sahay) and Scully says that Gupta also means 'protector.' Yes but firstly and foremostly it's still a name. He takes Mulder to the loo where he proceeds to attempt to undo his pants!! ha. Steady on that's not what he's there for. Mulder tells him Sanjay's dead. But he didn't get in touch with him even after he left messages.
The Department of Defence is involved and anything at the facility is classified. As they investigate Sanjay's apartment; fter Scully carries out an autopsy on him and finds he wrote 'Founders Mutation' on his hand. The founder being the name Dr Goldman (Doug Savant) is referred to as. Mulder also notices that when the letter opener was inserted into his ear by Sanjay he took a 60 degree turn once inside. At his apartment they set off a silent alarm and Mulder is subjected to the same sounds as Sanjay and Scully notices he was in agony. They sit in front of Skinner (Mitch Pileggi) as he tells them the files are classified and they can't have access to them cos of their status just to appease the DOD agent there and after he leaves Mulder tells Skinner he managed to copy some of them, as Skinner welcomes them back.
They are able to speak with Goldman as Scully asks Sister Mary (Christine Willes) at the hospital where she works if she can arrange a meeting and Agnes (Kacey Rohl) tells them she doesn't want to stay here and there's something wrong with her baby, At the foundation, Goldman shows them around and the children he's treating or rather researching and conducting experiments on. They also find that his wife, Jackie (Rebecca Wisocky) is locked up accused of killing their baby son. Paying a visit to her they find that her daughter Molly fell in the pool and survived but she didn't kill their son. She let him out.
Mulder finds that the video footage from the facility shows a janitor working in the office when Sanjay was subjected to those sounds and he was the killer. Finding him at a farm, Kyle (Johnathan Whitesell) is Molly's brother and he attempts to attack Mulder again with the sounds, as the birds gather again. Mulder having earlier explained that the birds were subjected to auditory sounds not audible by the human ear and so the worms would've felt the vibrations too causing an abundance of birds to gather. They take Kyle to Goldman who shows them Molly, but she's not his sister who is in another room. Kyle finds her and they escape after they both attack and kill Goldman until his eyes popped out rendering Mulder and Scully helpless. Mulder's line of not being able to unsee his eyes popping out.
The episode appeared to be more of a connection or a way to bring up William. As Scully asks Mulder if he ever thinks about him and whether he thinks that's what happened to her fifteen years ago. So we get flashes of what their lives would've been like with William growing up, such as Scully taking him to school and Mulder watching films with him and building rockets. With William calling out to them at night and Mulder finding he's abducted by aliens or something else with bright lights.
These eps need to pick up some speed and action for me, they're a little too dialogue infused. Waiting for the next Werepire ep!! Okay the Were Monster.
