THE X-FILES

 


Season Nine

Nothing Important Happened Today (Part 1)

Forty-eight hours after the resolution of Season 8, a surveillance tape threatens to derail Doggett's investigation of Kirsch. A new assistant director turns up in the form of the oily Brad Follmer, a former lover of Reyes', and proceeds to confuse matters wherever he can. Mulder's flat has been totally emptied and Fox himself has vanished without trace. It seems he's decided he must vanish for the safety of Scully and her baby, who may or may not be entirely normal. (The new series starts with a noticeable rearrangement of the title music, rearranged title images, including a new ID card for Scully, and with the new team all established as regular cast, along with Skinner.)

Nothing Important Happened Today (Part 2)

Questions are raised about Scully's baby. Questions are raised about Kirsch's loyalties. As political infighting muddies the FBI waters, the newly revealed super-soldiers fight to uncover or destroy the evidence. But it's hard to work out who is doing what for which reasons.

(Cast as before)

Dæmonicus

Doggett and Reyes discover a link between a psychiatric patient and a double murderer. It seems the patient shares some kind of link that enables him to know what is happening. Scully starts her new post at FBI forensic training in Virginia. Doggett refuses to believe in the sense of horror that Reyes felt at the scene of the first deaths.

4-D

Agent Reyes suspects that a killer who has critically wounded Doggett, and permanently paralysed him, may have entered the world from a parallel dimension. Erwin Lukesh appears to have the ability to move between two dimensions, and in one he is conducting a murder spree in which he has already claimed the life of Monica Reyes. In solving the problem, the surviving Reyes discovers she has one to many Doggetts, but her moral dilemma about how to get "her" Doggett back is short lived.

Trust No 1

A contact comes forward, offering the names of the super soldiers, but he will only speak to Mulder. Scully is the only person in touch with him - via anonymous email addresses and only accessing them in anonymous internet cafes. He is lonely, missing Dana and William, and longs to come home. The contact is a super soldier himself, intent on Mulder's destruction, but there is a way to destroy super soldiers. Dana and Fox's love for one another is now no longer an unspoken secret.

Lord of the Flies

Dylan, a high school teenager, is at the centre of some strange events concerning insects.

Hellbound

The body of a man is found skinned alive and Reyes finds she is investigating a string of skinning murders dating back forty years. It goes deeper than that, however, and dates back to a mining prospector who was murdered - skinned - and his murderers went unpunished. He has been exacting revenge upon them over the years, so that each time their souls are reborn he tracks them down to kill them again.

Provenance (Part 1 of 2)

When rubbings from the spaceship resurface, the FBI hides its investigation from the X-Files and Scully, the one person who is familiar with the significance of the symbols.

Audrey Pauley

After a car accident, Reyes wakes up in a netherworld  between life and death. She finds others there in the same predicament, and also Audrey, who can bridge the gap between this and the real world. There, Doggett is determined not to let Reyes go, especially as he now realises he loves her.

Underneath

Improbable

Mr Burt, a man who can see the odds in any bet, and see the future in any event, is following May Wayne, a serial killer. In a series of murders, Reyes calculates that the killer is fixated on numerology numbers, using these to calculate his next victim. Little does she realise that she and Scully are intended victims. Being trapped with him and Mr Burt in an underground garage brings it home to them.

His father tries to protect him by hiding him in a mountain home, but Doggett and Reyes, following Agent Harrison's hunch managed to get themselves trapped there..

Jump The Shark

Reyes and Doggett turn to the Lone Gunmen for help and are led on a quest to find their old friend Yves Adele Harlow. The Lone Gunmen may be heroes of truth and justice, but good guys don't always win, and these guys are now broke. Could this be their final curtain (and another nail in the X-Files coffin)? They seemed doomed to undergo one of the worst fates imaginable to any set of beloved heroes - that of a pointless and totally manufactured termination in an ailing series not long from its own termination.

William

The agents capture a badly scarred man trying to break into their offices. Although his identity is a mystery, all evidence points to his being Mulder. But after an attack on baby William Scully, the ghost of the long-dead Agent Spender arises - Mulder's half-brother. William maybe safer away from his mother entirely.

Release

An FBI cadet's uncanny intuition helps shed light on the murder of Doggett's son. With amazing precision, Cadet Hayes is able to pinpoint the way in which various murder victims met their ends. Doubt follows, though, when the suspect AD Brad Follmer points the finger of guilt at Hayes. One way or another, Doggett is determined to find release at last for him and his ex-wife, and lay their son to rest.

Sunshine Days

A man who lives in a house which is rumoured to be an exact replica of that of a famous television series is linked to a series of suspicious deaths. Only people who break into the house at certain times of the day seem to see that, though, while to others it is a perfectly normal residence. Oliver, the house owner, is a Brady Bunch fan with a highly dangerous power, and Scully is fixated on the idea of providing definitive proof of an X-File and benefiting the world. But maybe John Doggett is at last getting the hang of this job.

The Truth

After breaking into a Marine installation, Mulder is captured while "killing" Knowle Rohrer. He is placed on trial in a military court which (finally) manages to explain the facts behind the whole alien invasion conspiracy, but the facts are clearly balanced against the truth. When the fixed trial is over, Scully, Skinner, Doggett and Reyes break Mulder out and he and Scully head towards a final acceptance of the truth, and the limited number of years in which they will be able to enjoy their relationship together...
