A very simple storyline. Some inmate suddenly is able to walk through walls. But not glass. He uses this ability to kill his warden and escape prison. Everyone assumes he is off after his old woman to get the $90,000 he stole. Especially as he writes on a wall "I want what's mine". But when he finds this woman, he doesn't seem to have even thought about the money. Somehow he knows that she gave birth to his son and wants to know where he is. The boy's name is Trevor, and he has been raised by her sister. Supposedly he is 7 but that kid looks more like 10 to me. Anyway, Mulder and Scully show up as Pinker is trying to take the kid and he ends up naked and running after them and scaring the crap out of his kid. This causes him to have second thoughts about what he is doing and he is cut in half by a windshield and Mulder lectures the lady about not giving him a second chance. The end. Not a very interesting story if you ask me. I kind of liked Pinker Rawls. He seemed like a very interesting character and he had a point about the new socks. Too bad he died and was crazy. I give the episode a 5 out of 10.
There's something so nice about putting on a brand-new pair of socks. I don't know what it is.
