5x08 Kitsunegari
This is another episode over which I differ from most--to me, it's a great follow-up. I've heard a lot of talk about the "unnecessariness" of Kitsunegari, but I think that it has a lot of validity. First of all, Robert Patrick Modell is evil enough to warrant a re-visit. The fact that he came back practically from the dead makes him that much more so. Secondly, there are new developments and turns in this episode which give it what it needs to stand on its own. The sister element is good, and it's always fun to screw with Mulder's head!
B+
