Season 6, Episode 17
5/10
I Want What's Better
19 October 2006
Wilson 'Pinker' Rawls (John Diehl) is a hick convict with lots of chips on his shoulders who gets unnatural abilities from... oh, another magical X-Files lightning strike, I guess... Anyway he can now walk through almost anything to get what's his, and only one other person knows what THAT is! Scully and Mulder must find some way to stop him before he turns yet another law enforcement officer into toast.

A lack of consistency affects all of season 6, and Pinker, who loses all his clothing when passing through SOME walls and carries off sneakers at other times, is a sad example of it. Although we are presumably supposed to find something touching in the intentions of this murderous jerk, it's about as touching as an equally murderous certain someone with an awfully similar issue earlier in this same season! Not one of the great "monster of the week" episodes!!!
