“Young At Heart” is the sixteenth episode of the series, and it’s a doozy. In it Mulder is being stalked by a man that’s , supposedly, already dead.

Tooms is a genetic mutant, and has the ability to contort his body, enabling him to fit into spaces and openings an ordinary human couldn’t. Another […]
