XFILE SEASON 9 TRIAL
X tells Mulder that his plans of putting the truth on trial are “futile,” but when Mulder remains adamant, X helps him by handing him a note that reads “Marita Covarrubias.” This is a sly callback to X’s death scene five years earlier, when he writes down Marita’s location in his own blood on the floor of Mulder’s apartment building. There’s others,” Krycek tells him mysteriously.Īs Mulder sits in a holding cell awaiting his trial, he’s visited by the ghost of X ( Steven Williams), his former government informant who died in Season 4. The one-armed villain met his fate in Season 8, but he returned in “The Truth” to help Mulder escape from super soldier Knowle Rohrer ( Adam Baldwin).

While roaming around the military base, Mulder gets his first glimpse of a ghost: it’s Alex Krycek ( Nicholas Lea)! Krycek, a foil of Mulder and Scully’s ever since Season 2, was someone who had no qualms about working with the good guys or the bad guys as long as it meant advancing in his own life and career. (Sadly, the show never picked up on this story thread in any of its future revivals.) That’s when he first learns the date of December 22, 2012, the same date the Mayan calendar ends. The actor was MIA for the entire Season 9 until he stepped foot into frame in the very first moment of “The Truth.” In a scene right out of an action movie, Mulder runs through a military base to try to find knowledge of an impending alien colonization threat.
