S04E01: Herrenvolk
There's plenty happening in the Season 4 opener, with the opening bee death scene, the exaggerated chase scene between the bounty hunter, Jeremiah Smith and Mulder, the bevy of attendees at the bedside of Teena Mulder, the reappearance of Samantha Mulder (or a form of her at least), more deaths and more back-pedalling. It keeps you on your toes, but you have to wonder how you could actually kill an alien bounty hunter if he wasn't killed in this episode!
The quote at the end in regards to Mulder, that "the fiercest enemy is the one with nothing to lose" is probably one that plays out for the remainder of the series. The only downside is that there is still no forward momentum to Mulder and Scully actually discovering anything about what it going on in the canon story. Sometimes it just drags out that part of things too much. 5/5
