A SERIAL KILLER WHO RIPS HIS VICTIMS' LIVERS OUT WITH HIS BARE HANDS ALERTS MULDER AND SCULLY TO A CRIME SPREE STRETCHING BACK TO THE TURN OF THE CENTURY.

Scully is called in on a locked-room murder mystery by an old FBI Academy classmate who resents Mulder's intrusion into his case, but Mulder's discovery of a strangely distorted fingerprint links the case to other similar cases dating back generations. Scully, working from a psychological profile of the killer, stakes out the crime scene and catches Eugene Victor Tooms crawling out of an air duct. A lie detector test seems to clear him, however, and Tooms is released -- despite Mulder's insistence that Tooms is a 100-year-old serial killer. Their research, plus an interview with a retired detective, convinces Mulder that Tooms is a mutant, a cannibal who can hibernate for 30 years at a time and distort his body to crawl through tiny spaces. Another murder is committed, again inside a locked and shuttered house, and this time Scully and Mulder go hunting Tooms. They find a deserted apartment building, a strange nest in the basement and a collection of trophies, but no Tooms. Scully, only half convinced, returns home unaware that Tooms has targeted her for his final victim, and Mulder must race to save his partner from being eaten alive.

 

NOTES

The first appearance of one of the all-time classic bad guys, Tooms. I haven't watched this one recently, but I do remember how creepy he was and the scene at the end where he's licking the paper sent chills up my spine.

 

QUOTES

Colton: "So how are you doing? Have you had any close encounters of the third kind?"

Scully: "Is that what everyone thinks I do?"

Colton: "No, of course not. But you do work with Spooky Mulder."

Scully: "Mulder's ideas maybe a bit out there but he is a great agent."

____________________________________________________________

Mulder: "Why would I make them so uncomfortable?"

Scully: "It probably has to do with your reputation."

Mulder: "Reputation? I have a reputation?"

Scully: "Mulder, look. Colton plays by the book and you don't. They feel your methods, your theories are..."

Mulder: "Spooky? Do you think I'm spooky?"

____________________________________________________________

Colton: "So Mulder, what do you think? Does this look like the work of little green men?"

Mulder: "Grey."

Colton: "Excuse me?"

Mulder: "Grey. You said green men. The Reticulan skin tone is actually grey. They're notorious for their extraction of terrestrial human livers. Due to iron depletion in the Reticulan galaxy."

Colton: "You can't be serious."

Mulder: "Do you have any idea what liver and onions go for on Reticula?"

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "Mulder, they don't want you involved. They don't want to hear your theories. That's why Blevins has you hidden away down here."

Mulder: "You're down here too..."

____________________________________________________________

(Scully has her gun drawn as Mulder jumps out)

Mulder: "You wouldn't shoot an unarmed man, would 'ya copper?"

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "Mulder, you are jeopardizing my stakeout."

Mulder (offering her his sunflower seeds) : "Seeds?"

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "Tom, I wanna thank you for letting me put in some time with the VCS, but I am officially assigned to the X-files."

Colton: "I'll see what I can do about that."

Scully: "Tom, I can look out for myself."

Colton: "You said Mulder was out there, that guy's insane."

____________________________________________________________

Colton: "Look Dana, whose side are you on?"

Scully: "The victim's."

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "Genetics might explain the patterns. It also might explain the sociopathic attitudes and behaviors. It begins with one family member, who raises an offspring, who raises the next child..."

Mulder: "So what's this, the anti-Waltons?"

____________________________________________________________

(referring to the microfiche reader)

Mulder: "You have any dramamine on you but any chance cos, these things make me seasick."

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "Oh, God, Mulder. It smells like... I think it's bile."

Mulder: "Is there any way I can get it off my fingers quickly without betraying my cool exterior?"

____________________________________________________________

Scully: "Is this what it takes to climb the ladder, Colton?"

Colton: "All the way to the top."

Scully: "Then I can't wait until you fall off and land on your ass."
