[edit] Trivia
- Folie à deux literally means “a madness shared by two”
- This episode's monster of the week, a brain-eating, insectoid creature with the ability to cloud the minds of people observing it, is similar to the title creatures from the Red Dwarf episode Psirens.
- At one point Mulder mentions Helsinki syndrome which is, in fact, an incorrect name for Stockholm syndrome.
