Agent Mulder's search for an informant inside a cult compound leads him and Scully to one of the cult leader's wives. What they soon discover is an unexpectedly close connection with the woman involving reincarnation. Scully discovers that spirits inhabit living beings in order to tell their stories. In Mulder's Regression scene, he clearly details all of his past lives.

Trivia

*The Flukeman is mentioned in this episode when Mulder asks Scully if knowing about their past lives "Would have changed some of the ways we looked at one another?" she answers, "Even if I knew for certain, I wouldn't change a day...Well except for that Flukeman thing, I could have lived without that just fine."

*The lines of poetry read by Mulder at the beginning and end are from "Paracelsus" by Robert Browning.

*The penultimate scene features a team of ATF agents raiding the religious compound, only to find that everyone inside has committed mass suicide. This may be a reference to the Waco Siege. The real name of the church leader, Vernon Warren, also resembles the name of the compound leader in the Waco Siege - Vernon Wayne. [http://www.munchkyn.com/xf-rvws/field.html]
