A woman comes to Scully asking for help, believing that her pregnancy had been altered by alien DNA, the case has a huge personal impact on Scully.
This feels like the first time that Agent Doggett has been caught up in The X Files mythology for some time, a story that's very close to Scully's heart, one that sees her pushed to extremes physically and mentally.
It's a very dark, twisted, almost morbid story, I can imagine that for any person with a bit of sensitivity, that this could have been something of an unconfirmed watch, for me it was one of the best episodes from series 8.
It serves to develop the story of Scully's pregnancy, and explores the complexities of her relationships with both Mulder and Doggett.
I thought Patrick was terrific once again, Anderson put in a first class performance, it was terrific seeing her back in the thick of the action.
9/10.
