The X Files (1993) - 9x19 - The Truth (1)

 
Plot Outline

Mulder gains access to Mount Weather Complex, a government building where Mulder wants to find out more about the super soldiers. Knowle Rohrer finds him, they fight and then Knowle starts chasing after Mulder. It ends with Mulder pushing him over a ledge and down a few flights onto electrical wires, supposedly killing him. Some guards take Mulder to a jail. Skinner tells Scully that Mulder is back and they visit him in jail. Kersh is told that Mulder will get a trial but in a military court of law. Scully and Skinner go to visit Mulder and Skinner tells him that he's on trial for his life. Mulder says they're rigging the case and asks Skinner to represent him. Doggett and Reyes come in with news that the military claims to have the body of Knowle Rohrer. Mulder tells Scully he found something in the facility earlier but he won't tell her what. The next day, the trial begins. Skinner calls Scully to the stand. Jeffrey Spender, Marita Covarrubias, Gibson Praise and Agent Doggett are also called as witnesses for Mulder. Doggett says Mulder couldn't have killed Knowle Rohrer because he couldn't be killed. Skinner calls Reyes next. Scully finds hard evidence that the body is not Knowle Rohrer and takes it to court since it could get Mulder out but then Kersh throws out the evidence. The panel finds Mulder guilty and his sentence is death by lethal injection. That night, Doggett and Skinner come to break Mulder out of jail.
