Having previously contacted the missing Mulder with claims that his wife had been abducted by aliens on a number of occasions, Duffy Haskell (Jay Acovone) now insists that his wife was murdered after giving birth to an alien baby, and that the infant was kidnapped. As Doggett (Robert Patrick) investigates Haskell's allegations, Scully (Gillian Anderson) follows a trail of clues to Zeus Genetics, an artificial insemination clinic in Maryland. Upon learning of the involvement of her own obstetrician, Dr. Parenti (Steven Anderson), and stumbling upon several other disturbing coincidences, Scully is faced with the horrific possibility that her own unborn baby is the product of alien fertilization. "Per Manum" made its American TV bow on February 18, 2001.
