| Plot: Mulder and Scully fly to an Arctic research station to find out why everyone murdered each other. Now Mulder and Scully must find out why. |
Dr Hodge: "Oh, can we see some credentials?" Bear: "Credentials? The only credentials I have is that I'm the only pilot willing to fly you up there. You don't like those credentials, walk." |
| Character Synopsis: What can I say? Bear is not only a good pilot, but an all around good guy which he demonstrates by coming to Mulder's aid during the dog attack. And what does he get for his trouble? He gets infected with a deadly parasite instead of Mulder. (Why doesn't Mulder feel guilty about that?) |

| Another excellent portrayal by Jeff Kober. This episode setting induces a sense of claustophia and the cast is really great at generating very intense paranoia. In addition, this episode is, visually, pretty gross. The worst (best?) part is, of course when they restrain Bear and find the parasite moving (yuk) under his skin. -- songbird | |
