ONLY A MENTALLY RETARDED JANITOR AND A DEAD SCIENTIST CAN HELP MULDER AND SCULLY SOLVE A SERIES OF MURDERS IN A RESEARCH FACILITY.

A research scientist is trapped in a wind tunnel and sucked into a giant experimental turbine, the first of two bizarre murders whose only link is either a mentally handicapped man or a dead one. Alerted by handwriting analysis and research into the victims' backgrounds, Mulder and Scully discover an old secret that links twins separated at an early age, genetic mutation and the possible survival of a mind after the death of the body. When the last surviving researcher is caught in a fatal trap, Mulder and Scully must act on their instincts to call back the mind of a dead man in his living brother.

Mulder: "You've got a brother, don't you, Scully?"

Scully: "Yeah, I have an older one and a younger one."

Mulder: "Have you ever thought about calling one of them all day and then the phone rings and it's one of them?"

Scully: "Does this pitch somehow end in a way for me to lower my long distance charges?"

Mulder: "I believe in psychic connections. Closest of all between family members."

Scully: "OK, but in this case one family member has closer ties to a frozen fudgesicle than he does to his own brother."

Mulder: "There is definitely something unexplainable here, Scully, but not unidentifiable."
