Opening scene
[ children chattering ]
Martha Crittendon
Absolutely not. All set.
Ellen Adderly
Oh, Martha, you make this look so easy.
Martha Crittendon
It's not too much, you think?
Ellen Adderly
Are you kidding? This is just perfect. It's exactly the way I always dreamt that easter should be.
Michelle Crittendon
Mommy, look!
Martha Crittendon
Oh, good for you, Michelle.
Ellen Adderly
What you've done is really fabulous. The kids are gonna remember this forever.
Martha Crittendon
I hope there are some things they won't remember. What is she doing here?
Ellen Adderly
Her son is in Michelle's class, Martha. Be nice. Jenny, hi. It's good to see you.
Jenny Uphouse
Hey, Ellen. Martha.

Scene 02
CRITTENDON RESIDENCE
Martha Crittendon
She's shaken up, Howard. It took me two hours to put her to bed. All I'm saying is-- no, I didn't see any bird. But whatever it was, it scared her and she wants to be with her daddy. That's all I'm saying. Well, can't you come home one day early? All right, fine. I love you too.
[ gasps ]
[ gasping, screaming ]
Scene 03
SOUTHEAST WASHINGTON, DC
Dana Scully
Anything?
Fox Mulder
No. She'll come. It's a matter of time.
Dana Scully
Well, I hope you realize there's no evidence whatsoever... That this mystery woman of yours has committed a crime. Though her wardrobe comes close.
Fox Mulder
Ah. Six prostitutes were seen with her at dirty dames, never to be seen again. Not only might she be a female serial killer, rare in and of itself, but twice police raided that club to arrest her.
Dana Scully
And twice they came up empty-handed.
Fox Mulder
She's on tape goin' in, the exits are covered. She's nowhere to be found. What happens to her? She disappeared? Turn invisible?
Dana Scully
Well, I hope we catch her so she can tell us... Before I have to spend another night here. You know, Mulder, I don't know about you, but I find this all very depressing. This round-the-clock exposure to the seamy underbelly.
Fox Mulder
It's a job, Scully. Vigilance in the face of privation. The sheer will that it takes to sit in this crappy room... Spying on the dregs of society until our suspect surfaces. There is something ennobling in that.
[ cell phone ringing ]
Fox Mulder
Mulder. Now? All right. I gotta go.
Dana Scully
Mulder?
[ scoffs ]
Scene 04
FBI HEADQUARTERS
Fox Mulder
You wanted to see me, sir?
Walter Skinner
Yeah, sit down. Two weeks ago, a woman named Martha Crittendon... Disappeared from her home in bethany, vermont. Local police haven't turned up any sign of her. I'm hoping you may be able to.
Fox Mulder
I'm already on a case.
Walter Skinner
You're on a stakeout. I'm confident agent Scully can continue in your absence.
Fox Mulder
Why? What did I do?
Walter Skinner
There may be aspects to this that... Speak to your strengths as an investigator.
Fox Mulder
Specifically?
Walter Skinner
Ravens. What do you know about 'em-- their mythological or paranormal significance?
Fox Mulder
Well, the, uh-- the raven is considered a very powerful symbol... In certain norse, celtic and native-American cultures. Mostly a negative one. Indians view it as a deceiving spirit. Christianity mostly associates it with evil. And then, of course, there's poe's raven... And nevermore and all that stuff.
Walter Skinner
Martha Crittendon's seven-year-old daughter... Claimed she was attacked by a raven earlier the day her mother disappeared. Later, she heard one inside the house before she discovered her mother was missing.
Fox Mulder
No, really, what did I do?
Walter Skinner
It's the only lead that hasn't been explored. I wanna know if it has any bearing on the case.
Fox Mulder
I'm also assuming that the fact that Martha Crittendon's father... Is a federal judge also has a little bearing on this case?
Walter Skinner
It's been made clear to me that locating her is my top priority. I'm making it yours as well.
[ car approaching ]
Scene 05
BETHANY, VERMONT
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Agent Mulder?
Fox Mulder
Yeah.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Phil Adderly. Welcome to bethany. I appreciate the help.
Fox Mulder
Sure. I don't know how much help I'm gonna be. I know you had a lot of good investigators on the case. So, uh, you wanna just take a quick look around? Great. Thanks. So tell me about Martha Crittendon.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Well, she and my wife Ellen, they're best friends. Martha's much admired here. She's devoted to her family, active in the community. I mean, needless to say, the whole town is very concerned.
Fox Mulder
So, what's your theory on what happened?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
I'm hopin' you'll tell me. There's no ransom note, no prints or blood evidence.
Fox Mulder
Her husband was out of town when she disappeared?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
In miami at a conference. It checks out. Howard didn't have anything to do with this.
Fox Mulder
What do you know about a raven?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Yeah, yeah. Michelle, their-- their little girl was saying something about that. Got me. Poor kid. You wanna talk to her?
Fox Mulder
Not necessary. You sure, uh, Martha's last name isn't stewart?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Tell me about it. Last year this place made the cover of new England home.
Fox Mulder
How many talons would you say a raven had? Never mind. You know what this is? Do you know what was hanging here?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
It was a mirror. It was found broken.
Fox Mulder
You had no other signs of struggle?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Not a one. Does that mean somethin' to you?
[ door closes ]
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Howard, this is agent Mulder with the FBI
Fox Mulder
Sir. I hope we can help.
Howard Crittendon
I appreciate your coming. I'm wondering now... If this isn't just a waste of your time.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
How so?
Howard Crittendon
With all the police coming and going, this place is a wreck. I was straightening up and I... Found something.
Fox Mulder
Uh, birth control pills.
Howard Crittendon
I think Martha was having an affair. After Michelle, we decided not to have more children. I had a vasectomy. They're in Martha's name. She ordered them off the internet. Because I guess small towns talk. Of course, then I started looking all around and I... Found this in the pocket of her favorite coat. I don't know what this goes to... Or what it means, if anything. But the pills--
Fox Mulder
Do you have any idea who your wife may have been seeing?
Howard Crittendon
Whoever he is, Martha may be with him. It explains why we haven't found her. She doesn't wanna be found.
[ cawing ]

Scene 06
Jenny Uphouse
Cute kid.
Ellen Adderly
Oh, Jenny, you scared me.
Jenny Uphouse
You do those up yourself?
Ellen Adderly
Uh, yeah.
Jenny Uphouse
I know Martha and you were good friends. You must be pretty upset.
Ellen Adderly
Of course. I'm sure we all are. Maybe you'd like some to put up on your side of town.
Jenny Uphouse
My side of town? Yeah, sure.
Ellen Adderly
Look, I didn't mean that the way it kind of sounded.
Jenny Uphouse
No, it just naturally comes out that way when you think you're better than everyone. You and Martha are two peas in a pod.
Ellen Adderly
Jenny, I don't think I'm better than anyone.
Jenny Uphouse
You and me got more in common than you know.
[ gasps ]
Scene 07
ADDERLY RESIDENCE
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Yeah, right. Right. Thanks. Whoever Martha was seeing, the two of them covered their tracks pretty good. Phone records don't show anything. You think this person took her, harmed her?
Fox Mulder
I wouldn't rule it out, but I doubt it. According to your audubon book, a raven has four talons. That matches the scratches we found on Martha Crittendon's mantle.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
You're not saying a raven's the reason Martha's gone missing?
Fox Mulder
No, no, not a raven itself. But in folklore, ravens are companions to evil-- evil spirits, witches, warlocks, that kind of thing.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Agent Mulder, I appreciate the different tact you're taking on this investigation, but this whole bird thing? And keep in mind, you're basing this on the word of a seven-year-old girl.
Fox Mulder
Well, there was also a broken mirror in Martha's house. Mirrors are considered items of enchantment. A broken one... Means something. I'm not exactly sure what it is, but... It means something.
[ door opens ]
Unidentified speaker
Oh.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Hey, sweet girl. There's papa. Agent Mulder, this is my daughter katie and my wife Ellen.
Ellen Adderly
Nice to meet you. We're so glad you're here. Look, our house is your house. We have a spare room set up. I'm sure you'll be comfortable.
Fox Mulder
No, that's--
Ellen Adderly
There's no arguments. We're so grateful that you're here to find Martha. It's the least we can do. Okay.
Fox Mulder
I should really get the bureau to reimburse you for room and board.
Ellen Adderly
Don't be silly. This is just a typical meal around here.
Fox Mulder
Really?
Ellen Adderly
Bill works so much that supper is usually the only time we see each other. And I like to make it special. [ cell phone ringing ]
[ groans ]
Fox Mulder
Excuse me. Sorry. Thanks. Mulder.
Dana Scully
Mulder, please tell me I can go home.
Fox Mulder
Hey, Scully. How's the stakeout?
Dana Scully
[ sighs ] well, the furnace broke and I can just about see my breath.
Fox Mulder
Ouch. Sorry to hear that.
Dana Scully
That, and I've witnessed a couple hundred things I'd like to erase from my brain.
Unidentified speaker
Eeew.
Dana Scully
[ groans ] but as of yet, no mystery woman.
Fox Mulder
Well, she'll come. You know, it's just a matter of time. She'll show up. I'm sure of that.
Dana Scully
Not before I die of malnutrition.
Fox Mulder
Scully, tough it out. Whatever doesn't kill you, makes you stronger, right? -no, no. No capers. Thank you. -
Dana Scully
I'm sorry. What?
Fox Mulder
I said, "what a crazy caper." I'll talk to you later. And keep warm. Bye.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Did I hear you say something about stakeout? What's the case?
Ellen Adderly
Sweetie, this is family time. Don't make our guest talk shop at the dinner table.
Sheriff
Fair enough.
Ellen Adderly
Cheers.
Fox Mulder
Cheers.

Scene 08
Howard Crittendon
What's the matter, sweetheart? I thought that was your favorite.
Michelle
It tastes different when mommy makes it.
Howard Crittendon
Yeah. I know. How 'bout we go get hamburgers? Would you like that instead?
[ wings flapping ]
Michelle
It's back.
[ cawing ]
Howard Crittendon
Everything's all right, sweetheart. I'll be right back.
Michelle
Okay.
[ cawing ]
Scene 09
Scene 09
Fox Mulder
What do you make of these claw marks?
Dr. Blankenship
Well, one time I saw the victim of a bear attack look something like that. Only bears don't plant their kill in the rose garden.
Fox Mulder
I was gonna say.
Dr. Blankenship
The body's been around here for a while. Probably since she went missing.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
What about your ravens? Howard said something about ravens.
Dr. Blankenship
Yeah. Feedin' on her. See?
Fox Mulder
You okay?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
I'm not arrestin' Howard. I don't care how it looks. Body buried in his own yard. He didn't do this.
Fox Mulder
I agree.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
The poor guy's suffered enough already. What are you doing? You shouldn't be here. What--
Ellen Adderly
Oh, my god. Martha, no.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Ellen, honey, I am so sorry.
Ellen Adderly
It can't be.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
It's okay. It's okay.
Ellen Adderly
The thing that did that to her, I think I saw it today. I saw its reflection. It had a face out of a nightmare. These long claws, the kind that could-- the window shattered. I don't know how. And when I turned around, it was gone. I don't know what I thought it was. I didn't think it was real. How could it be? But then when I saw Martha's face--
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Honey, you've been through a lot.
Ellen Adderly
You don't believe me.
Fox Mulder
I do. You said the car window shattered after you saw the reflection. And there's a broken mirror in Martha's house. I don't think that's a coincidence.
Ellen Adderly
But what could it mean?
Fox Mulder
Mirrors are considered doorways. In the victorian era, they built mirrored rooms called "psychomantiums," where they thought they could summon forth spirits from the spirit world. Denizens from the spirit world were brought into this world.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
"denizens of the spirit world?"
Fox Mulder
You asked about the raven. The raven is a carrion bird... Attracted to death and decay. What if... This entity that you saw... Is somehow a personification of that? What if this creature was brought forth in order to attack Martha? Then the question becomes who summoned it forth. Ellen, do you know if Martha had any enemies? Can you think of anyone at all who would have wished her harm?
Scene 10
Scene 10
Jenny Uphouse
I sure as hell didn't have anything to do with it.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
They're just routine questions, miss Uphouse. Answer 'em and we'll be out of here.
Fox Mulder
We understand there was no love lost between you and Martha Crittendon.
Jenny Uphouse
And where do you understand that from? Mrs. Sheriff, right?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
It's not exactly a town secret.
Jenny Uphouse
Right. Like there aren't enough of those already. Queen Martha and her perfect little easter egg hunts. [ scoffs ] she's so above the rest of us. Except I heard she was steppin' out on her husband, knockin' boots with who knows who. I'm not happy she's dead and all. But you need to look into that.
Fox Mulder
Well, let's stay on the subject of you-- on your police record, for instance. You don't suffer people that don't give you respect. I'm thinking of that hair salon owner you assaulted.
Jenny Uphouse
That was forever ago. And I paid for that. And I had nothing to do with Martha.
Fox Mulder
Where were you the night she disappeared?
Jenny Uphouse
At home, all night. I gotta get back to work.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
I don't know about you, but I believe her. She didn't do it. I just don't get that vibe.
Fox Mulder
Fair enough. But why did she lie about her alibi? I got that vibe pretty clear. [ cell phone ringing ] excuse me.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
I'll be in the car.
Fox Mulder
Mulder.
Dana Scully
Mulder, when you find me dead, my desicated corpse propped up... Staring lifelessly through the telescope... At drunken frat boys peeing and vomiting into the gutter, just know that my last thoughts were of you... And how I'd like to kill you.
Fox Mulder
I'm sorry. Who is this?
Dana Scully
It's a freak show, Mulder. It's a nonstop parade of every single lowlife imaginable.
Fox Mulder
The view may not be too different here. It's dressed up nicer, but underneath the surface it's the same seamy underbelly.
Dana Scully
It's not the same. Trust me.
Fox Mulder
You know, Scully, this case has turned out to be a little more interesting than I thought. And I could use your help.
Dana Scully
You talking about a reprieve for me?
Fox Mulder
Well, there's a murder victim I'd like you to autopsy. What do you think? Scully, you still there? Hello?
Dana Scully
That van is back.
Fox Mulder
What'd you say?
Dana Scully
Nothing, Mulder. I'll talk to you later, okay? [ phone beeps off ]
[ banging ]

ADDERLY RESIDENCE
Ellen Adderly
Get away from her! It's okay, hon. Come on.
[ caws ]
[ screams, panting ]
Ellen Adderly
Be quiet now. Shh. Hush. Be quiet.
[ whimpering ]
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Oh, god. Ellen? Ellen, what happened?
[ cooing ]
Fox Mulder
Are you feeling a little better, Ellen? Can you... Just talk to me a little bit about what happened?
Ellen Adderly
It came back.
Fox Mulder
It came back? The-- the creature you saw?
Ellen Adderly
It was here, Phil. It chased me.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
It's all right, honey. Please don't encourage this. This is not what she needs.
Fox Mulder
I believe she saw something.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
And I believe she didn't. Her best friend just died, for god's sake. These imaginings of hers are brought on by stress. I have been through the entire house and I didn't see any indication anyone else was here.
Fox Mulder
What about the two broken mirrors?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
What about them? You think broken mirrors have some deeper meaning, but you still can't tell me what it is. And in this case, I'm thinking Ellen broke 'em herself. What?
Fox Mulder
It's number six. It's a match to the one Howard Crittendon found in his wife's coat pocket. What would this be doing here?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
I don't know.
Fox Mulder
Ellen, do you recognize this key?
Ellen Adderly
Oh, I was... Sweeping the floor... And it got caught up in the sweeper. I never saw it before today.
Fox Mulder
You found it before you were attacked?
Ellen Adderly
Right before. Right before I saw the raven.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Let me see if my department can run this down and find out what lock it goes to.
Scene 12
Scene 12
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Hey, I can't do this anymore.
Jenny Uphouse
Can't, huh?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
No. We gotta stop.
Jenny Uphouse
Well, that's too bad.
Scene 13
Scene 13
Fox Mulder
Hey, good morning. Good morning, Ellen. Wow. Have you seen my shirt? Oh, I'm sorry. I left it--
Ellen Adderly
It's over here.
Fox Mulder
Oh, Ellen, you didn't have to go to the trouble.
Ellen Adderly
No, it's no trouble. Actually, it helps me. Whenever my life's a mess, I just do some housework. Gives me the illusion I'm in control.
Fox Mulder
Well, maybe I should try that sometime.
Ellen Adderly
Have a seat.
Fox Mulder
Thanks. Yikes. Wow.
Ellen Adderly
It's just Phil's breakfast times two.
Fox Mulder
Well, Phil is living large. Where is he this morning?
Ellen Adderly
Uh, probably out on a call. He'll be back. You-- you just dig in.
Fox Mulder
Whoa. Ow.
Ellen Adderly
Sorry. Do you need milk?
Fox Mulder
Mm-mm. I'm fine.
Ellen Adderly
I get the feeling you're not used to anyone taking care of you.
Fox Mulder
Well, that has a-- a vaguely pathetic ring to it.
Ellen Adderly
No, I just meant I didn't notice a wedding band.
Fox Mulder
Oh.
Ellen Adderly
Do you have a significant other?
Fox Mulder
Um, not in the widely understood definition of that term.
Ellen Adderly
Oh. Well, the right woman will come along and change all that. Don't miss out on home and family, mr. Mulder. With all the terrible things you must see in your work-- well, it could be a refuge for you.
[ door opens ]
Ellen Adderly
Hi, honey.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Sorry I'm late. Paperwork. Good morning, agent Mulder.
Fox Mulder
Good morning.
Ellen Adderly
I'm gonna go check on katie.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
You sleep well?
Fox Mulder
I only woke up once, when you went out.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Well, I'll try to be quieter next time. We've got a deputy out. We're shorthanded. I had to take some calls.
Fox Mulder
All night?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Yeah. We were busy.
Fox Mulder
I spoke to the coroner this morning. The autopsy shows Martha Crittendon was four weeks pregnant when she died, despite her birth control pills. Probably didn't even know it. Any idea who the father might be? I mean, Howard's vasectomy pretty much puts him out of the running. Any inkling who it might be?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Just say what's on your mind, agent.
Fox Mulder
You have a piece of evidence in your possession that I'd like back. The skeleton key. Number six. You wanna tell me what this unlocks? Once I find out, we'll talk again.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
I'm gonna hit the shower.
[ door closes ]

Jenny Uphouse
I know, brett, sweetie, I'm sorry. No, I'm gonna be home real soon. Mommy had to work a double shift. I know. I'm gonna come home and make you breakfast. No, no, no, don't eat a lot of cookies. No. Only two. I-- yes, oatmeal cookies have oatmeal in them. Okay. All right, three. I love you. Bye.

Scene 15
Fox Mulder
Sheriff, you know that talk I said we should have?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
I left her sleeping.
Fox Mulder
So, you were having an affair with both Jenny and Martha Crittendon? I gotta hand it to you, sheriff. You put the service back in the "protect and serve."
Sheriff Phil Adderly
I cared about both of them.
Fox Mulder
They knew about each other? But I'm assuming Ellen doesn't?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
No. But even if she did, she'd find a way to rationalize it. I'm not defending myself, but... Two years ago I wanted a divorce. Ellen won't hear it. She got pregnant with katie and locked me up good.
Fox Mulder
Well, I figure you got bigger problems facing you right now.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
I didn't do this. I swear to you. Anyway, what about the broken mirrors and the raven? You said that it was an entity that did this. Don't you still believe that?
Fox Mulder
I said it was an entity summoned by somebody else.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Whether or not they even knew about it, is that possible? Can I be the reason for all this... And not even know about it?
Scene 16
Scene 16
Ellen Adderly
Hi. You've reached the Adderly's-- Phil, helen and katie. Please leave a message. [ machine beeps ]
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Ellen, this is Phil. I was really hopin' you'd be home. Look, I'm in a bit of a situation here... And there's things we need to talk about. But agent Mulder's on his way over there to explain it all to you. So, if you get this message, you just wait for him, okay? Thanks.
[ machine beeps ]
Ellen Adderly
I think this sleepy little girl needs a nap. I do. [ muttering ] I love you. Go to sleep now. Okay, baby?

Fox Mulder
Ellen? Ellen?
[ cell phone ringing ]
Fox Mulder
Mulder.
Dana Scully
Mulder, I am free.
Fox Mulder
You're free?
Dana Scully
Mm-hmm. I'm gonna go home, take a shower for, I don't know, eight or nine hours, burn the clothes that I'm wearing and then sleep until late spring.
Fox Mulder
You solved the X-File.
Dana Scully
Yes. Except it's not an X-File, Mulder.
Fox Mulder
What are you saying? You didn't catch our blond mystery serial killer?
Dana Scully
Oh, no, we caught her. But, uh, she isn't a serial killer. Nor is she a blond. And she isn't even a she.
Fox Mulder
What are you talking about?
Dana Scully
What I'm talking about is these six missing prostitutes aren't dead, Mulder. They are alive and well in a halfway house... That was set up by this mystery blond... Who happens to go by the name of mark scott eggbert. And mr. Eggbert wishes to acquaint lost souls... With the teachings of christ. And that's his hook, I guess. He dresses up like a fellow prostitute... To make the girls feel at ease. But this vanishing act is no more paranormal... Than a change of wardrobe, Mulder. He goes into a place like a woman and comes out as a man. Right under--
Fox Mulder
Our noses.
Dana Scully
Exactly. A wolf in sheep's clothing. Or I guess in this case, a sheep in wolf's clothing.
Fox Mulder
Well, good work, Scully. I'll call you back later. Ellen? Ellen, it's agent Mulder.
Ellen Adderly
Please go away.
Fox Mulder
Ellen, Jenny Uphouse is dead. Your husband is in custody suspected of murdering her, only I don't think he did it. Do you? Ellen, you went out... This morning after breakfast. Where'd you go?
Ellen Adderly
It's not me. It can't be.
Fox Mulder
I think it is. Ellen, I think you have a whole other side that you're afraid to face. That would explain all the broken mirrors. You don't want to see yourself for what you really are. Ellen, you have to come out of there.
Ellen Adderly
Then what? My marriage, my life? Everything I thought I had... Is nothing. It's all lies. I wish you'd never come here.
Fox Mulder
Ellen, you need to open this door.
[ roaring ]

Scene 18
DESCHAMPS COUNTY
Fox Mulder
You wanna see her?
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Does she wanna see me? The doctors say she's got some kind of dissociative disorder. A split personality. That doesn't explain what happened, does it?
Fox Mulder
I think it's about as close as science can come. I think the basic idea's right. There's some multiple personality disorders... Where an alternate personality displays traits that the host doesn't have, like nearsightedness or high blood pressure or even diabetes. I think in Ellen's case, the... Changes were just a lot more extreme.
Sheriff Phil Adderly
Like... Jekyl and hyde?
Fox Mulder
She wanted so much from her life with you. A perfect life. And I think that at some point she found out you were cheating with Jenny and Martha. I don't know when, but at some point she did. Like you said, I think she had to rationalize that. And she just bottled up her anger. Swallowed it, and it had to come out some way. I think she did what she did to protect her family.
