"Teliko" is the third episode of the fourth season of The X-Files. The mysterious deaths of several African-American men, whose skin color has turned white sends Mulder on a quest into African folklore.

[edit] Trivia

  • The traditional "The Truth is Out There" text is changed to "Deceive Inveigle Obfuscate". Scully says these words twice during the episode, and Mulder once. The music video for the song "Tomorrow Comes Today" by the British rock band Gorillaz features the words "Deceive Inveigle Obfuscate."

This line is also found in the beginning of Michael Jackson's "Scream" video, a video about racial prejudice.
