His investigation leads him to a local sheriff named Frass, who reveals the strange circumstances surrounding the exterminator's death. Skeptical, Mulder reaches out to his partner, Dana Scully, who dismisses the incident as merely a case of anaphylactic shock—an early glimpse of the friction between the scientific and the unexplainable.
