My Rating: 6/10

This just doesn't excite me. Granted, there are some good special effects such as the blood in the bathtub, and sundry items flying around but that's about it.

This episode is ranked as the 14th worst on the GEOS X-Files Episode Guide.

Notable Quotable:
Mulder: "I would never lie. I willfully participated in a campaign of misinformation."

Mulder: "Do you know how difficult it is to fake your own death? Only one man has pulled it off, Elvis."


Mulder: "Hey, Scully. Do you believe in the afterlife?"
Scully: "I`d settle for a life in this one."


Mulder: "You don`t see too many bosses graves without people dancing on it."
