Arcadia - 3/7/99
Scully and Mulder go undercover as marrieds
(named Rob and Laura Petrie, no less) to probe
the disappearances of three couples from an
idyllic planned community. While Scully (Gillian
Anderson) notes a "death of physical
evidence," it's clear something is amiss as the
agents arrive to occupy the last house mysteriously
vacated. Their very friendly neighbors fervently
pitch in to beat a 6 P.M. move-in dealine;
a basketball hoop nets Mulder (David Duchovny,
1999 TV Guide Award winner for Favorite
Actor in a Drama) a warning about things not
"aesthetically pleasing"; and any mention of the
old occupants is met with evasiveness. (1:00)
