1
00:00:28,572 --> 00:00:30,949
- Good evening, Father.
- Is she ready?
2
00:00:31,033 --> 00:00:32,910
Yes.
3
00:00:40,542 --> 00:00:43,462
Baptism is the rite of initiation.
4
00:00:45,047 --> 00:00:48,050
This holy water takes away original sin.
5
00:00:49,885 --> 00:00:52,971
The sacrament confers the grace of God,
6
00:00:54,473 --> 00:00:57,809
bringing the soul into God's family.
7
00:01:04,316 --> 00:01:07,778
Dara, I baptise you
in the name of the Father,
8
00:01:10,113 --> 00:01:12,616
and of the Son,
9
00:01:13,575 --> 00:01:16,078
and of the Holy Spirit.
10
00:01:17,162 --> 00:01:19,498
Bless you, my child.
11
00:01:22,668 --> 00:01:25,003
(thunder)
12
00:01:25,128 --> 00:01:27,422
(clock chiming)
13
00:02:09,214 --> 00:02:11,341
(door banging)
14
00:02:18,724 --> 00:02:20,642
Dara?
15
00:02:38,243 --> 00:02:40,329
Oh, my God!
16
00:02:55,177 --> 00:02:57,054
Daren!
17
00:02:59,598 --> 00:03:01,683
Daren!
18
00:03:02,601 --> 00:03:04,353
Daren!
19
00:03:12,944 --> 00:03:15,072
Daren!
20
00:03:17,199 --> 00:03:18,742
Dara?
21
00:03:26,083 --> 00:03:28,377
Oh, my God.
22
00:03:32,464 --> 00:03:34,383
Daren!
23
00:03:36,635 --> 00:03:41,807
No-0-0000!
24
00:04:52,461 --> 00:04:55,380
Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.
25
00:04:55,464 --> 00:04:58,842
It has been several months
since my last confession.
26
00:05:00,635 --> 00:05:03,138
You have a sin to confess?
27
00:05:06,141 --> 00:05:08,727
Father, I'm an FBI agent.
28
00:05:10,896 --> 00:05:14,524
I've taken it as my code and
purpose to uphold the law.
29
00:05:16,318 --> 00:05:18,403
To save lives.
30
00:05:18,987 --> 00:05:22,407
And now your work has come
in conflict with your faith?
31
00:05:22,532 --> 00:05:24,576
In a way.
32
00:05:25,911 --> 00:05:31,917
I was here for Easter services last week, and
Father McCue approached me for my help.
33
00:05:32,042 --> 00:05:34,544
Why did he come to you?
34
00:05:35,712 --> 00:05:39,424
Because there was a family
that he felt needed my help.
35
00:05:40,175 --> 00:05:42,719
But it was more than that.
36
00:05:46,348 --> 00:05:49,184
Father, I had a daughter who died...
37
00:05:50,435 --> 00:05:54,231
a strange and sudden death
several months ago.
38
00:05:56,233 --> 00:06:01,446
Father McCue thought that by helping these
people you might in some way help yourself
39
00:06:01,571 --> 00:06:03,949
to come to terms with your grief?
40
00:06:04,074 --> 00:06:07,244
- Yes.
- But you haven't?
41
00:06:11,623 --> 00:06:14,751
Father, I told you that I had a sin to confess.
42
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:21,800
But the sin of which I'm guilty, I'm
not sure if you can offer forgiveness.
43
00:06:21,883 --> 00:06:24,135
What is the sin?
44
00:06:25,637 --> 00:06:28,557
An innocent girl is dead because of me.
45
00:06:32,102 --> 00:06:34,813
I could have saved her life.
46
00:06:34,938 --> 00:06:37,482
But I let her die.
47
00:06:44,990 --> 00:06:47,659
- Thank you so much.
- Nice to see you.
48
00:06:59,963 --> 00:07:01,590
Dana?
49
00:07:01,673 --> 00:07:05,510
Do you have a moment?
I need to speak with you in private.
50
00:07:09,014 --> 00:07:14,269
I must say, it's been nice seeing you at Mass
again. I've almost started getting used to it.
51
00:07:14,352 --> 00:07:17,856
I've been trying to make
an effort to come more often.
52
00:07:17,981 --> 00:07:20,442
I don't mean to take advantage
of your attendance,
53
00:07:20,525 --> 00:07:25,196
but I'm involved in a difficult situation
with a couple that are also members here.
54
00:07:25,322 --> 00:07:28,283
- Do you know the Kernofs?
- No, I'm afraid I don't.
55
00:07:28,366 --> 00:07:33,872
Recently they lost their daughter, Dara.
You may have heard about the situation.
56
00:07:33,997 --> 00:07:35,290
No, I didn't.
57
00:07:35,373 --> 00:07:38,209
The circumstances of the
girl's death were sudden,
58
00:07:38,293 --> 00:07:42,130
and I'm afraid the police haven't
been able to tell them much.
59
00:07:42,213 --> 00:07:44,299
Are you asking for my help?
60
00:07:44,382 --> 00:07:48,136
The Kernofs are devout, but their
faith is giving them little comfort.
61
00:07:48,219 --> 00:07:53,183
I thought, with your background,
your words might carry a certain weight.
62
00:07:56,144 --> 00:07:58,396
Can I tell them you'll be visiting?
63
00:08:02,734 --> 00:08:05,654
That's Dara on her 16th birthday.
64
00:08:05,737 --> 00:08:11,159
We couldn't have children of our own. I
persuaded Lance, six years ago, to adopt.
65
00:08:11,242 --> 00:08:16,915
At first he was reluctant to accept a special-
needs child, but he got so attached to her.
66
00:08:17,248 --> 00:08:19,668
Then this happens.
67
00:08:19,751 --> 00:08:23,004
You make the choice, never
imagining something like this,
68
00:08:23,088 --> 00:08:25,924
or how vulnerable you are.
69
00:08:26,049 --> 00:08:30,261
Dara had just been baptised. I know
in my heart she's gone to a better place,
70
00:08:30,345 --> 00:08:33,431
but Lance is angry. Angry at God.
71
00:08:34,891 --> 00:08:37,227
They say time heals.
72
00:08:40,063 --> 00:08:43,108
Father McCue said that
you've been having trouble
73
00:08:43,191 --> 00:08:46,236
getting much information
about what happened to her.
74
00:08:46,444 --> 00:08:48,530
They say she may
have been struck by lightning,
75
00:08:48,613 --> 00:08:50,699
but no one seems to know for sure.
76
00:08:50,782 --> 00:08:53,618
How she even got out
of the house is a mystery.
77
00:08:53,702 --> 00:08:58,123
- What do you mean?
- Dara had congenital spinal deformities.
78
00:08:58,206 --> 00:09:02,043
- She's always been wheelchairbound.
- Could somebody have taken her out?
79
00:09:02,127 --> 00:09:05,797
Lance said he saw her walking, and when
he found her she was on her knees, praying.
80
00:09:07,966 --> 00:09:11,052
I think that's the hardest part
for my husband.
81
00:09:12,053 --> 00:09:15,140
He'll never understand how God could...
82
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,560
forsake the life of an innocent girl.
83
00:09:18,643 --> 00:09:22,731
How God in his mercy could
let this happen to our Dara.
84
00:09:22,814 --> 00:09:24,899
Mrs Kernof was talking about her husband
85
00:09:24,983 --> 00:09:28,236
but she might as well have
been talking about me.
86
00:09:28,319 --> 00:09:30,989
You too are angry at God?
87
00:09:35,285 --> 00:09:38,329
I felt drawn to these people, Father.
88
00:09:39,330 --> 00:09:41,916
In a very personal way.
89
00:09:42,917 --> 00:09:47,172
I was determined to help them understand
why their daughter had been taken.
90
00:09:47,255 --> 00:09:49,132
And did you?
91
00:09:52,343 --> 00:09:55,680
As much as I have my faith,
Father, I am a scientist.
92
00:09:56,806 --> 00:09:59,517
Trained to weigh evidence.
93
00:10:02,020 --> 00:10:05,190
But science only teaches us how,
94
00:10:07,108 --> 00:10:09,194
not why.
95
00:10:09,277 --> 00:10:14,449
If I have to stand by my report I will, but it's
hardly open-and-shut on the cause of death.
96
00:10:14,532 --> 00:10:18,369
- You think it was lightning?
- I'm guessing it was lightning.
97
00:10:18,453 --> 00:10:23,041
The way her eyes were burned suggests the
bolt went to ground right through her head.
98
00:10:23,333 --> 00:10:27,003
Funny thing is, there was no other sign
of arcing except for the face.
99
00:10:27,170 --> 00:10:30,048
Her mother said she was found
in a kneeling position.
100
00:10:30,131 --> 00:10:32,509
Genuflecting.
101
00:10:32,717 --> 00:10:35,720
- Are you a religious person?
- Why do you ask?
102
00:10:35,804 --> 00:10:39,974
I haven't been to church since
I was a kid. But I went last Sunday.
103
00:10:40,558 --> 00:10:43,144
I'm gonna show you something.
104
00:10:43,895 --> 00:10:49,359
Her body was so rigored that I had to do my
examination in the position she was found.
105
00:10:51,903 --> 00:10:54,739
I've never seen anything like it.
106
00:10:55,573 --> 00:11:00,495
- Looks like there was surgery on her hands.
- She was polydactyl. Same with her feet.
107
00:11:00,578 --> 00:11:03,414
I haven't asked her parents yet-
I haven't had the heart -
108
00:11:03,540 --> 00:11:06,501
but I assume they had
the extra fingers removed.
109
00:11:06,584 --> 00:11:08,753
What's the connection?
110
00:11:08,837 --> 00:11:12,590
I found no other evidence
of any other tissue damage
111
00:11:12,674 --> 00:11:15,927
or electrical burns
or any other serious trauma.
112
00:11:16,052 --> 00:11:19,055
It's as if God himself struck her down.
113
00:11:19,889 --> 00:11:21,766
Dara was adopted.
114
00:11:21,850 --> 00:11:24,853
I don't suppose you asked
for any information about the birth mother?
115
00:11:24,936 --> 00:11:28,356
- I can do that if you like.
- No, it's OK. I, uh...
116
00:11:28,439 --> 00:11:33,236
I have someone I can ask. Somebody
I'd like to confer with, actually.
117
00:11:59,804 --> 00:12:02,932
(orderly) Koklos. Paula Koklos. Room 213.
118
00:12:03,641 --> 00:12:07,145
We'll get her things packed up
and get you on your way.
119
00:12:20,658 --> 00:12:22,827
(man) Hold it.
120
00:12:23,661 --> 00:12:25,747
Just hold it.
121
00:12:26,331 --> 00:12:29,500
- Are you Father Gregory?
- Yes.
122
00:12:29,584 --> 00:12:33,087
I'm Aaron Starkey, with the
Department of Social Services.
123
00:12:33,171 --> 00:12:36,925
- I am very sorry, but we've had a mix-up.
- What are you talking about?
124
00:12:37,008 --> 00:12:40,178
Your adoption petition for Paula
Koklos is missing an approval.
125
00:12:40,261 --> 00:12:42,931
- I've got the court order.
- That's the mix-up.
126
00:12:43,014 --> 00:12:45,183
It shouldn't have gone to family court
127
00:12:45,266 --> 00:12:49,187
without an approval from the
social worker assigned to the case.
128
00:12:49,270 --> 00:12:50,271
And that's me.
129
00:12:50,355 --> 00:12:52,523
Give it to me then, and we'll be on our way.
130
00:12:52,607 --> 00:12:56,194
Well, I can't. At least not yet.
I've just been assigned to Paula,
131
00:12:56,319 --> 00:12:59,280
so I'll need time to familiarise
myself with her case...
132
00:12:59,364 --> 00:13:03,785
Look, I've already been through all this.
I'm here to take the girl home.
133
00:13:03,868 --> 00:13:06,371
I'm sorry, Father, but you'll have to wait.
134
00:13:06,454 --> 00:13:09,374
Until I can get the paperwork in order.
135
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,418
(phone rings)
136
00:13:56,754 --> 00:13:59,757
- Hello?
- Hey, Scully. I'm returning your call.
137
00:14:00,717 --> 00:14:05,930
Hi. Uh, something's come up. I was, uh,
hoping that you could do me a favour.
138
00:14:06,014 --> 00:14:07,932
What's going on?
139
00:14:08,016 --> 00:14:13,104
This isn't official FBI business, so I was
hoping we could keep it outside of work.
140
00:14:13,187 --> 00:14:18,860
OK. Look, I'm kinda tailing a possible
suspect right now, so I'm kinda rushed. So...
141
00:14:18,943 --> 00:14:22,864
I need some birth and adoptive
records on a Dara Kernof.
142
00:14:22,947 --> 00:14:26,117
- Who?
- Dara Kernof.
143
00:14:26,784 --> 00:14:29,370
I can't tell you much
more than that, I'm sorry.
144
00:14:29,454 --> 00:14:33,875
- You wanna give me a hint? Anything?
- Not until you get me those records.
145
00:14:33,958 --> 00:14:35,960
All right. I'll talk to you later.
146
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:50,868
Scully?
147
00:15:50,993 --> 00:15:54,288
- Aren't you the secret squirrel?
- What do you mean?
148
00:15:54,372 --> 00:15:57,375
I got a look at that body.
You been holding out on me.
149
00:15:57,500 --> 00:16:01,129
Mulder, it's not what you think.
I didn't wanna involve you.
150
00:16:02,046 --> 00:16:05,216
I got asked to look into this
as a favour for a family.
151
00:16:05,383 --> 00:16:07,468
Dara Kernof's family?
152
00:16:07,552 --> 00:16:10,638
- You found Dara's records?
- Those are her birth records.
153
00:16:10,721 --> 00:16:13,057
The adoption records have been sealed.
154
00:16:13,182 --> 00:16:17,395
I think one of my questions has
already been answered. Dara was a twin.
155
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:21,065
No, actually she was a quadruplet.
One of four girls.
156
00:16:21,399 --> 00:16:24,569
Was this, uh, cross found like this?
157
00:16:25,903 --> 00:16:29,323
- Yes, as far as I know. Why?
- It's inverted. Upside down.
158
00:16:29,407 --> 00:16:32,660
That's a protest, a sacrilege
against the Church.
159
00:16:32,743 --> 00:16:35,079
Put there by whom?
160
00:16:35,913 --> 00:16:39,500
It's your case, remember, Scully?
Do you have any suspects?
161
00:16:39,876 --> 00:16:44,005
- Not as of this time.
- Could the, uh, the victim have placed it?
162
00:16:44,755 --> 00:16:46,883
It's doubtful.
163
00:16:47,383 --> 00:16:52,346
Paula Koklos was severely impaired,
physically and mentally.
164
00:16:52,430 --> 00:16:54,515
As was Dara Kernof.
165
00:16:54,765 --> 00:16:59,437
- They both died the same way?
- It appears that their eyes were burnt out.
166
00:17:00,688 --> 00:17:03,524
Their bodies frozen in a position of prayer.
167
00:17:03,608 --> 00:17:05,526
Physical deformities could account for that.
168
00:17:05,610 --> 00:17:07,862
They might.
169
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,617
Look, Scully, I know you don't
really want my help on this
170
00:17:12,742 --> 00:17:15,578
but can I offer you my professional opinion?
171
00:17:17,622 --> 00:17:21,042
You got a bona fide super-crazy
religious wacko on your hands.
172
00:17:21,375 --> 00:17:22,752
What makes you so sure?
173
00:17:22,835 --> 00:17:25,796
The mote in the eye,
the window to the soul,
174
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:30,468
an eye for an eye... He's working from
ancient scripture, maybe even the Bible.
175
00:17:30,593 --> 00:17:34,722
- He may even think he's doing God's work.
- (Starkey) Did you find anything?
176
00:17:36,057 --> 00:17:41,062
My name is Aaron Starkey. I'm the
social worker assigned to Paula Koklos.
177
00:17:41,145 --> 00:17:44,565
This is so tragic. I just hope
you catch whoever did this.
178
00:17:44,649 --> 00:17:48,903
Mr Starkey, do you happen to know if
that cross over there belonged to Paula?
179
00:17:48,986 --> 00:17:52,657
I don't remember seeing it before.
I'm sure it didn't.
180
00:17:52,740 --> 00:17:55,743
Did she have any visitors
who might have left it behind?
181
00:17:55,826 --> 00:17:58,996
No, she had no family, no friends really.
182
00:17:59,830 --> 00:18:03,334
I don't know if you knew this,
but Paula was about to be adopted.
183
00:18:04,335 --> 00:18:05,670
BY Who?
184
00:18:49,046 --> 00:18:51,340
Scully, look at this.
185
00:18:52,383 --> 00:18:55,303
Gnostic Gospels, Book of Enoch,
186
00:18:55,386 --> 00:18:57,471
Book of J...
187
00:18:57,555 --> 00:19:00,057
- (heavy breathing)
' APOCFypha...
188
00:19:01,475 --> 00:19:05,062
I'm surprised there's nothing here
from Jesus Christ Superstar.
189
00:19:05,187 --> 00:19:08,899
- What kind of church is this?
- There ain't no tellin'.
190
00:19:10,401 --> 00:19:13,404
- Can I help you?
- Father Gregory?
191
00:19:13,487 --> 00:19:15,990
- Yes?
- I'm Dana Scully.
192
00:19:17,867 --> 00:19:20,828
We're here about the death of Paula Koklos.
193
00:19:20,911 --> 00:19:23,331
Oh, God, no.
194
00:19:23,414 --> 00:19:26,083
Are you all right, Father?
195
00:19:26,751 --> 00:19:29,420
I was trying to adopt Paula.
196
00:19:29,503 --> 00:19:33,716
- I'm sure you knew that.
- We hear you were very anxious to do so.
197
00:19:34,925 --> 00:19:38,512
I hope to God you're not suggesting
I had something to do with it.
198
00:19:38,596 --> 00:19:41,599
- Why adopt her?
- You think I was interested in harming her?
199
00:19:41,682 --> 00:19:43,893
Why adopt her?
200
00:19:45,269 --> 00:19:47,938
I was trying to protect her.
201
00:19:48,939 --> 00:19:52,109
- I knew her mother.
- Do you know where she is?
202
00:19:52,443 --> 00:19:55,112
- Yes.
- We were looking for her name.
203
00:19:55,237 --> 00:19:59,033
- It's not listed on the birth records.
- Why would you want it?
204
00:19:59,116 --> 00:20:04,413
The other two girls may be in danger. We
hope she might be able to help us find them.
205
00:20:04,622 --> 00:20:07,583
Their mother died in childbirth.
206
00:20:11,087 --> 00:20:13,631
Can you give us a name?
207
00:20:14,423 --> 00:20:18,052
When I was a priest in the Roman
Church, before I founded my own,
208
00:20:18,135 --> 00:20:22,973
I was her confessor. Divulging her name
would violate the code of my faith.
209
00:20:25,976 --> 00:20:29,730
- And yours, I see.
- You said you wanted to protect Paula.
210
00:20:30,606 --> 00:20:33,984
- From what?
- Whatever your intentions,
211
00:20:34,068 --> 00:20:37,988
your secular prejudices blind you
to what's really happening here.
212
00:20:38,072 --> 00:20:41,826
Two girls are dead. Not by the hand of man.
213
00:20:42,493 --> 00:20:44,829
Unless you accept God's teachings,
214
00:20:44,954 --> 00:20:48,332
that there is a struggle between
good and evil for all souls,
215
00:20:48,416 --> 00:20:52,753
and that we are losing that struggle,
you're but fools rushing in.
216
00:20:52,837 --> 00:20:57,299
You put your own lives in danger,
as well as the lives of the messengers.
217
00:21:00,344 --> 00:21:02,680
I have nothing more to say.
218
00:21:12,189 --> 00:21:16,193
I brought Agent Mulder on the case
to help temper my feelings.
219
00:21:17,319 --> 00:21:20,197
To keep them from clouding myjudgement.
220
00:21:22,700 --> 00:21:25,286
I wouldn't admit it to him, but...
221
00:21:27,037 --> 00:21:31,542
as we stood there I felt as if Father
Gregory was speaking directly to me.
222
00:21:34,044 --> 00:21:36,964
In a language only I could understand.
223
00:21:38,549 --> 00:21:40,885
"The messengers"?
224
00:21:43,012 --> 00:21:44,889
Yes.
225
00:21:45,890 --> 00:21:51,312
I know people in glass houses shouldn't
throw stones, but that guy is paranoid.
226
00:21:51,395 --> 00:21:54,148
I think you're a little
extreme in yourjudgement.
227
00:21:54,231 --> 00:21:56,734
All that crap about the fight for all souls,
228
00:21:56,817 --> 00:21:59,320
the literature,
the performance we just witnessed.
229
00:21:59,403 --> 00:22:02,156
It all fits. He thinks
he's doing God's laundry.
230
00:22:02,239 --> 00:22:06,076
He said this wasn't done by the hand
of man. You think he believes that?
231
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,580
If so, he's more dangerous than he
appears. Even if he's not your killer,
232
00:22:09,705 --> 00:22:11,832
- he is hiding something.
- What?
233
00:22:11,916 --> 00:22:15,669
He says he knew the mother, but won't
give her name. Maybe she's alive.
234
00:22:15,753 --> 00:22:20,508
I think you have enough to bring him in
for questioning, if not make an arrest.
235
00:22:20,591 --> 00:22:25,387
But basically you're ruling out
any element of the supernatural.
236
00:22:26,555 --> 00:22:28,599
What do you mean?
237
00:22:28,724 --> 00:22:34,271
Dara Kernof was baptised on the day of her
death. Sanctified by the ritual sacrament.
238
00:22:34,396 --> 00:22:38,108
- Submerged in the spirit.
- Then why would God allow this to happen?
239
00:22:38,192 --> 00:22:41,111
Why do bad things happen to good people?
240
00:22:41,779 --> 00:22:45,366
Religion has masqueraded as the
paranormal since the dawn of time
241
00:22:45,449 --> 00:22:48,369
to justify some of the most
horrible acts in history.
242
00:22:48,452 --> 00:22:51,705
I was raised to believe God has
his reasons, however mysterious.
243
00:22:51,789 --> 00:22:57,628
He may well have, but he seems to use a lot
of psychotics to carry out his job orders.
244
00:22:57,878 --> 00:23:01,966
You wanna find out who did this? I suggest
you autopsy the body of Paula Koklos
245
00:23:02,091 --> 00:23:07,304
before it's interred. Before the man who
killed her has a chance to find her sisters.
246
00:23:09,807 --> 00:23:15,104
The victim is Paula Koklos,
age 16, cause of death unknown.
247
00:23:16,230 --> 00:23:19,233
I'll begin with the external examination.
248
00:23:26,407 --> 00:23:29,201
Victim has signs
of congenital physical defects,
249
00:23:29,285 --> 00:23:32,246
including four supernumerary digits.
250
00:23:32,955 --> 00:23:36,834
The only indications of
external trauma are the burning...
251
00:23:38,252 --> 00:23:41,338
by means unknown,
of both globes of the eyes.
252
00:23:42,631 --> 00:23:45,509
I'm noting something on the shoulder.
253
00:23:45,593 --> 00:23:49,597
A bony process of some kind,
possibly a tumorous mass.
254
00:23:50,598 --> 00:23:53,684
Note no indication of surgical procedure.
255
00:23:59,106 --> 00:24:02,359
The mass appears on both
the right and left clavicle.
256
00:24:15,623 --> 00:24:17,499
Oh, God.
257
00:24:26,842 --> 00:24:28,552
Mommy?
258
00:24:30,554 --> 00:24:32,848
Mommy, please.
259
00:25:01,418 --> 00:25:04,546
I told myself that it was all in my head.
260
00:25:05,506 --> 00:25:10,010
A hallucination brought on by my
emotional connection to the case.
261
00:25:10,344 --> 00:25:13,722
That would seem to be
a reasonable explanation.
262
00:25:14,723 --> 00:25:17,601
But that's not what it was, Father.
263
00:25:19,061 --> 00:25:21,605
I was meant to see Emily...
264
00:25:22,898 --> 00:25:24,692
for a purpose.
265
00:25:24,775 --> 00:25:26,860
Which was?
266
00:25:30,364 --> 00:25:32,574
To save these girls.
267
00:25:34,243 --> 00:25:38,288
(Mulder) Scully, it's me. I did some more
digging on those adoption records.
268
00:25:38,372 --> 00:25:41,792
- What do you mean?
- I think I got a lead on that third sister.
269
00:25:41,875 --> 00:25:42,793
Where?
270
00:25:42,918 --> 00:25:45,295
She was under county care ten years ago.
271
00:25:45,421 --> 00:25:49,883
She wandered into a teen crisis centre
here in DC last week, homeless.
272
00:25:49,967 --> 00:25:54,972
That guy over at Social Services, Starkey,
he's helping me canvass the area.
273
00:25:56,932 --> 00:26:00,644
If she shares anything with her sisters,
she won't be walking far.
274
00:26:00,769 --> 00:26:05,482
- What did you find?
- Evidence of a degenerative bone disease.
275
00:26:05,566 --> 00:26:09,153
And, uh, I know you're
gonna think that I'm crazy,
276
00:26:10,612 --> 00:26:13,449
but I swear I found evidence
of something winglike.
277
00:26:13,657 --> 00:26:16,618
Well, then, maybe she flew here, Scully.
278
00:26:17,327 --> 00:26:19,663
Mulder, there's something else.
279
00:26:19,788 --> 00:26:24,251
Why don't you hold that thought and talk
to me and Father Gregory when you see us.
280
00:27:19,181 --> 00:27:21,475
Stop right there!
281
00:27:21,558 --> 00:27:25,395
Move into the light. Move into the light!
Hands where I can see 'em.
282
00:27:28,690 --> 00:27:30,734
We're too late.
283
00:27:33,237 --> 00:27:34,988
- Where's the girl?
- She's dead.
284
00:27:35,072 --> 00:27:37,241
- Where is she?
- In there.
285
00:28:00,597 --> 00:28:02,558
(bird flutters)
286
00:28:10,941 --> 00:28:15,362
(Mulder) What are you asking for,
Father? Mercy or forgiveness?
287
00:28:16,113 --> 00:28:19,533
You know, they say when
you talk to God it's prayer,
288
00:28:19,616 --> 00:28:23,078
but when God talks to you
it's schizophrenia.
289
00:28:27,374 --> 00:28:32,045
- What is your god telling you, Father?
- I pray for the girls' souls.
290
00:28:32,129 --> 00:28:35,215
Oh, you pray for their souls now.
That's convenient.
291
00:28:35,465 --> 00:28:39,720
I am immune to your mockery.
You're not interested in the truth.
292
00:28:39,803 --> 00:28:41,805
I am only interested in the truth!
293
00:28:41,889 --> 00:28:47,644
I'd like to know why you did what you did
to three defenseless, helpless young girls!
294
00:28:47,769 --> 00:28:51,899
What in your sick mind would
possess you to burn their eyes out?!
295
00:28:51,982 --> 00:28:55,319
Did they see you for who you are? Like I do?
296
00:28:58,989 --> 00:29:01,617
What does this mean, Father?
297
00:29:02,242 --> 00:29:04,494
Tell him what it is.
298
00:29:06,580 --> 00:29:09,625
Saint Peter. You know the story.
299
00:29:10,918 --> 00:29:13,503
Saint Peter on the cross.
300
00:29:14,922 --> 00:29:18,342
Saint Peter would only
be crucified upside down
301
00:29:18,425 --> 00:29:21,345
out of humility towards Christ.
302
00:29:23,513 --> 00:29:29,102
I've risked my life to protect their precious
souls, which the Devil has sought to claim.
303
00:29:29,186 --> 00:29:33,649
He took two before I could reach them,
and I was too late to save the third.
304
00:29:35,275 --> 00:29:37,653
Agents Mulder and Scully?
305
00:29:44,451 --> 00:29:46,203
You know.
306
00:29:46,328 --> 00:29:49,706
You've already guessed... what they are.
307
00:29:52,709 --> 00:29:55,295
The last one is still out there.
308
00:29:55,379 --> 00:29:57,381
The Devil is here.
309
00:29:57,714 --> 00:30:01,051
And if he finds her,
his victory will be complete.
310
00:30:02,177 --> 00:30:05,722
Scully? They think they've
found the fourth girl.
311
00:30:07,975 --> 00:30:12,145
As long as I'm in here, there's
no one to protect her. Let me go.
312
00:30:13,397 --> 00:30:15,691
Or she will die.
313
00:30:20,404 --> 00:30:23,490
- You believed him.
- Yes.
314
00:30:23,573 --> 00:30:29,246
- But you didn't tell your colleague?
- He believed that he could find the last girl.
315
00:30:29,371 --> 00:30:31,248
But I already knew I was meant to save her.
316
00:30:31,331 --> 00:30:32,916
From what?
317
00:30:33,834 --> 00:30:36,336
I wasn't sure.
318
00:30:36,420 --> 00:30:41,091
Father Gregory said that the Devil
claimed the lives of the first three girls.
319
00:30:41,174 --> 00:30:43,677
You don't believe that.
320
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,888
I know now that
Father Gregory was mistaken.
321
00:30:47,431 --> 00:30:50,100
The Devil didn't take their souls.
322
00:30:50,726 --> 00:30:53,603
But the threat to those girls was real.
323
00:30:54,438 --> 00:30:57,441
And Father Gregory
gave his life to protect them.
324
00:30:57,566 --> 00:31:02,529
The fourth girl is Roberta Dyer, transferred
to Maryland adoption services in 1995
325
00:31:02,612 --> 00:31:05,532
when her foster father
got a job in Gaithersburg.
326
00:31:05,615 --> 00:31:10,620
Adoption services investigated allegations
of child abuse in September of that year,
327
00:31:10,746 --> 00:31:14,458
three more times in '96
and then two more times in '97.
328
00:31:16,543 --> 00:31:20,714
- What's wrong?
- Father Gregory called them messengers.
329
00:31:21,298 --> 00:31:25,635
Scully? You don't wanna let this guy get in
your head. That's the last thing you want.
330
00:31:25,761 --> 00:31:29,139
Sometimes the most twisted ones
are the most persuasive.
331
00:31:29,222 --> 00:31:30,974
Mulder, he knows where she is.
332
00:31:31,058 --> 00:31:33,226
As long as he's locked up, it doesn't matter.
333
00:31:33,310 --> 00:31:36,480
- You won't find her. You're being misled.
- By who?
334
00:31:37,481 --> 00:31:41,151
You're the one who's being misled.
Not just willingly, but wilfully.
335
00:31:41,276 --> 00:31:45,238
I've never seen you more vulnerable,
susceptible or easily manipulated.
336
00:31:45,322 --> 00:31:48,325
And it scares me, because I don't know why.
337
00:31:48,450 --> 00:31:50,494
I saw Emily.
338
00:31:52,329 --> 00:31:54,956
She came to me in a vision.
339
00:32:02,255 --> 00:32:04,841
I think you should step away.
340
00:32:06,468 --> 00:32:10,263
Personal issues are making
you lose your objectivity,
341
00:32:10,347 --> 00:32:12,849
clouding yourjudgement.
342
00:32:12,933 --> 00:32:14,810
You go.
343
00:32:15,852 --> 00:32:20,524
Go find the girl. I'm gonna
finish up with Father Gregory.
344
00:32:22,025 --> 00:32:23,944
OK.
345
00:32:40,502 --> 00:32:42,879
Father Gregory?
346
00:32:46,174 --> 00:32:48,677
Where is she, Father?
347
00:32:52,389 --> 00:32:56,685
- How did you get in here?
- I will not be denied this time, Father.
348
00:32:57,978 --> 00:33:02,190
- But you took the others.
- The others were taken from me.
349
00:33:03,066 --> 00:33:06,027
I will not allow that to happen again.
350
00:33:06,903 --> 00:33:10,240
Where is the fourth girl?
351
00:33:10,740 --> 00:33:12,868
(mutters prayer)
352
00:33:13,869 --> 00:33:15,412
Urgh...
353
00:33:16,913 --> 00:33:19,207
(hissing and crackling)
354
00:33:22,085 --> 00:33:24,504
(distorted voice) Tell me, Father.
355
00:33:24,588 --> 00:33:26,756
Save yourself.
356
00:33:37,726 --> 00:33:40,937
- I'd like to get back in here.
- It should be open.
357
00:33:52,115 --> 00:33:54,075
Father Gregory?
358
00:33:57,454 --> 00:33:59,080
Father Gregory?
359
00:34:11,468 --> 00:34:15,138
- Yeah?
- We have a warrant to find your daughter.
360
00:34:15,263 --> 00:34:19,309
She's not here, I tell ya.
She's out. She's at school.
361
00:34:19,643 --> 00:34:23,897
We checked the school. She hasn't been
there in a week. Her life may be in danger.
362
00:34:23,980 --> 00:34:26,274
If you know something...
363
00:34:28,735 --> 00:34:31,071
- What's behind this door?
- It's the basement.
364
00:34:31,154 --> 00:34:34,741
- Well, can you unlock it?
- I don't have the key.
365
00:34:49,130 --> 00:34:51,341
Is this her room?
366
00:34:54,928 --> 00:34:57,180
Where is she, Mr Dyer?
367
00:34:57,806 --> 00:34:58,932
Where is she?
368
00:34:59,015 --> 00:35:02,018
- They'll cut off the cheques, won't they?
- Where is she?!
369
00:35:02,102 --> 00:35:05,522
He said he'd take her off my hands
but I'd keep the disability.
370
00:35:05,605 --> 00:35:07,607
- Who?
- The priest.
371
00:35:08,024 --> 00:35:10,527
- Who?
- Father Gregory.
372
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,052
(phone rings)
373
00:35:39,306 --> 00:35:41,808
- Hello?
- Hi, Scully, it's me.
374
00:35:41,891 --> 00:35:44,394
- He's dead, Mulder.
- Who?
375
00:35:44,477 --> 00:35:48,481
Father Gregory. They found him
alone in the interrogation room.
376
00:35:48,565 --> 00:35:53,361
No one can figure it out. There was
a guard sitting right outside the room.
377
00:35:54,404 --> 00:35:58,366
We didn't find her.
The fourth girl. She was here.
378
00:36:00,869 --> 00:36:03,163
Hey, Scully?
379
00:36:04,205 --> 00:36:07,000
Scully, are you there? Answer me.
380
00:36:11,671 --> 00:36:13,548
Scully?
381
00:36:19,179 --> 00:36:21,056
Scully!
382
00:36:24,934 --> 00:36:26,853
Scully?!
383
00:36:33,526 --> 00:36:35,612
- Father?
- Come in, Dana.
384
00:36:44,287 --> 00:36:48,875
I understand you found the man
responsible for the deaths of those girls.
385
00:36:48,958 --> 00:36:53,546
- I'm sure the Kernofs will be relieved.
- I'm not sure if they should be, Father.
386
00:36:53,630 --> 00:36:55,757
Why not?
387
00:36:56,883 --> 00:36:59,135
I've seen things.
388
00:37:00,136 --> 00:37:04,057
Things that have made me
question if there aren't...
389
00:37:04,140 --> 00:37:06,393
larger forces at work here.
390
00:37:06,643 --> 00:37:08,812
What have you seen?
391
00:37:09,270 --> 00:37:11,147
Visions.
392
00:37:11,940 --> 00:37:14,067
Of my daughter Emily, for one.
393
00:37:14,150 --> 00:37:17,737
That's understandable.
I'm sure you identified with the loss.
394
00:37:17,821 --> 00:37:19,906
I considered that.
395
00:37:21,658 --> 00:37:24,828
But then I saw something
last night which I...
396
00:37:25,662 --> 00:37:28,164
Which I can't explain.
397
00:37:29,499 --> 00:37:31,751
I saw a man
398
00:37:31,835 --> 00:37:33,920
in dark clothes.
399
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,342
But he had four faces.
400
00:37:41,177 --> 00:37:44,139
They weren't human.
401
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,619
Is this what you saw?
402
00:38:12,959 --> 00:38:15,211
It's a seraphim.
403
00:38:15,295 --> 00:38:17,547
An angel.
404
00:38:17,630 --> 00:38:19,883
With four faces.
405
00:38:21,509 --> 00:38:24,846
Those of a man, a lion, an eagle and a bull.
406
00:38:26,306 --> 00:38:30,727
In the story, the angel descends
from heaven and fathers four children
407
00:38:31,144 --> 00:38:35,690
with a mortal woman.
Their offspring are the nephilim.
408
00:38:36,816 --> 00:38:39,152
The fallen ones.
409
00:38:39,402 --> 00:38:43,406
They have the souls of angels,
but they weren't meant to be.
410
00:38:43,490 --> 00:38:46,326
They're deformed, tormented.
411
00:38:47,577 --> 00:38:52,081
So the Lord sends the seraphim to Earth
to bring back the souls of the nephilim.
412
00:38:52,207 --> 00:38:54,501
To stop the Devil claiming them as his own.
413
00:38:54,584 --> 00:38:56,920
How did he bring back their souls?
414
00:38:57,003 --> 00:39:00,173
"They were smote with the
brightness of his countenance."
415
00:39:00,256 --> 00:39:04,928
To look upon the seraphim in all his glory
is to give up one's soul to heaven.
416
00:39:06,221 --> 00:39:09,098
- You think that's what I saw?
- No.
417
00:39:09,182 --> 00:39:12,602
I think what you saw is a
figment of your imagination.
418
00:39:12,727 --> 00:39:14,812
A half-remembered story
from your childhood
419
00:39:14,896 --> 00:39:16,940
that surfaced because of this case.
420
00:39:17,065 --> 00:39:18,942
But I saw it, Father.
421
00:39:19,275 --> 00:39:22,028
Dana, the nephilim is a story.
422
00:39:23,446 --> 00:39:27,784
The text in which it appears isn't
even recognised by the Church.
423
00:39:27,909 --> 00:39:32,622
Father, do you believe that...
God has his reasons?
424
00:39:33,122 --> 00:39:35,708
Yes. I'm certain of it.
425
00:39:35,792 --> 00:39:38,628
It's how he rewards our faith.
426
00:39:46,803 --> 00:39:48,930
Agent Scully?
427
00:39:50,056 --> 00:39:52,559
- I can't believe I found you.
- What is it?
428
00:39:52,642 --> 00:39:55,895
Agent Mulder's trying to reach you.
He's at the station house.
429
00:39:55,979 --> 00:39:58,481
- Trying to reach me for what?
- The fourth girl.
430
00:39:58,565 --> 00:40:02,402
She's at Father Gregory's church.
Come on, I'll drive you.
431
00:40:39,981 --> 00:40:43,484
- There's no one here.
- They must be on their way.
432
00:40:50,700 --> 00:40:53,369
You don't see her in there?
433
00:40:53,453 --> 00:40:55,538
She's here.
434
00:40:57,832 --> 00:40:59,876
I know it.
435
00:41:15,224 --> 00:41:17,310
Agent Scully?
436
00:41:19,729 --> 00:41:22,065
Did you find her?
437
00:41:25,526 --> 00:41:27,570
Agent Scully?
438
00:41:33,868 --> 00:41:37,747
My name is Dana. I'm going
to get you out of there, OK?
439
00:41:39,499 --> 00:41:42,168
I'm not gonna hurt you.
440
00:41:57,558 --> 00:42:00,269
I'm gonna take you someplace safe.
441
00:42:09,529 --> 00:42:13,574
Where are you going?
Where are you taking her?
442
00:42:13,950 --> 00:42:16,577
Everything's gonna be fine.
443
00:42:19,789 --> 00:42:21,916
Bring her here.
444
00:42:24,043 --> 00:42:26,379
Bring me the girl!
445
00:42:26,462 --> 00:42:29,298
No, it's OK. It's all right. Stay here.
446
00:42:31,718 --> 00:42:33,594
It's OK. Stay...
447
00:42:35,888 --> 00:42:38,057
Just stay here.
448
00:42:38,141 --> 00:42:40,727
- It's gonna be OK.
- Bring her out to me!
449
00:42:40,810 --> 00:42:43,980
Mommy? Mommy, let me go.
450
00:42:46,399 --> 00:42:48,484
Mommy, please let me go.
451
00:42:48,901 --> 00:42:51,154
Emily.
452
00:42:51,279 --> 00:42:54,282
Agent Scully, get her out of there!
453
00:42:55,491 --> 00:42:57,618
Mommy, please.
454
00:43:13,092 --> 00:43:15,178
(Scully) Emily?
455
00:43:16,179 --> 00:43:18,097
Emily?!
456
00:43:56,385 --> 00:43:59,722
You believed you were
releasing her soul to heaven?
457
00:44:01,015 --> 00:44:02,975
I felt sure of it.
458
00:44:03,059 --> 00:44:07,563
But you still can't reconcile this belief
with the physical fact of her death?
459
00:44:07,688 --> 00:44:09,565
No.
460
00:44:11,567 --> 00:44:14,320
I thought I could, Father, but I can't.
461
00:44:14,737 --> 00:44:17,865
Do you believe there is a life after this one?
462
00:44:19,408 --> 00:44:20,910
Yes.
463
00:44:21,035 --> 00:44:23,329
Are you sure?
464
00:44:24,914 --> 00:44:27,416
Has it occurred to you
that, maybe, this too is
465
00:44:27,500 --> 00:44:30,044
part of what you were
meant to understand?
466
00:44:30,878 --> 00:44:33,673
You mean accepting my loss?
467
00:44:33,756 --> 00:44:36,050
Can you accept it?
468
00:44:42,014 --> 00:44:44,725
Maybe that's what faith is.
469
00:45:18,926 --> 00:45:22,471
