A student is prime suspect in the death of a Deputy, Mulder is convinced he's innocent, and that someone with special powers is responsible.
It's a very good episode, one I really enjoyed, it's been nice having a series of one off episodes, away from the story arcs and Black oil. The fresh feel continues, the recent batch of episodes have felt so different to what we had in series 5 and 6, not just visually, bit the tone and production values, it feels fresh.
There are some definite points of interest, the whole scenario of having speed father than light, mixed in with teenage hormones, that's very well conceived.
Best scene of all has to be the teacher's demise in the school cafeteria, that packs a punch, it's pretty bleak, it's very well staged, we're given glimpses of how. I got Lost Boys vibes when Max took Tony out in the car.
There were one of two plot holes, a few scenes that perhaps didn't gel, or fully make any sense, but those are minor gripes.
I liked the character of Tony, he was well developed, certainly well acted. Max was good too, he had a definite chip on his shoulder, again, well acted, I loved his backlog of old sayings, he's full of them.
Another very, very good episode, 8/10.
