WHEN SCULLY REVIVES AN AGENT SHOT BY A BANK ROBBER, MULDER BELIEVES THE RESUSCITATED MAN IS POSSESSED BY THE BANK ROBBER'S SOUL.
A Bonnie-and-Clyde-style husband and wife team of bank robbers are thwarted by Dana Scully and her old boyfriend, Agent Jack Willis. In the ensuing shootout, the husband kills Willis and Scully kills the robber. In the emergency room, Scully revives Willis, whose behavior becomes very strange indeed. Mulder suspects that the robber's personality returned in the body of his pursuer. Scully finds herself in the middle of a web of deceit, suspicion and treachery as "Willis" continues to pursue his case. Is he "Willis," trying to break the case, or "Dupre," trying to derail it? Mulder must orchestrate a rescue mission when Scully is kidnapped. The real double-cross is revealed as the killers prepare to execute her, and Scully must confront evidence of the return of a soul.
Notes
The title is a reference to Lazarus, the biblical character resurrected by Jesus, just as Willis is "resurrected" here.
