About this Episode

Scorch marks again?

A man disappears and a giant scorch mark is left in a field nearby, making Mulder think it’s connected to foxfire and alien abductions. But when Scully and Mulder arrive in town, something strange seems to be centered around the chicken plant where the missing man worked. Is it aliens or is this small town up to something sinister?

Why can’t it ever be both...?
