Scully calls an ambulance with "special chemical burn unit" for Huggs and Mulder tracks Timid to an alley, but it turns out it's not Timid, it's just some kid with a can of spraypaint. Foiled, you silly federal agent! He drops his gun, disappointed. Back at the apartment, Scully's pulling medicines and scissors from beneath the bathroom sink when she sees Timid popping out of the shower. The look of terror on her face is pretty palpable, and Timid wastes no time coming up to her and bashing her head through the bathroom mirror and slamming her into walls. A fight ensues in which Scully gets some pretty mean kung fu kicks into Timid's stomach and knees. Scully may be a tough broad, but she's also a tiny one, and Timid knocks her to the ground and pins her there, about to share the goo. Scully reaches for the scissors, which are just a few inches from her hands, but she just can't make it cos her arms are so little. Finally she does though, and she stabs them in his chest but he comes right back at her. That is, until someone shoots him in the chest...and it's Huggs! And guess what, her face finally registers an emotion! It's pure....anger? Terror? It's...something, anyway. And that's what counts.

A week later, down at the police station (why is it so dark in there?), Mulder shows Timid a list of a ton of women who have disappeared and wants him to tell them which ones he was responsible for. He says all of them. Mulder grabs the paper and starts to walk out, beckoning Scully to come with him. Scully doesn't move, though, she just stares at Timid, whose face has begun to decompose from the lack of fatty acids, I would imagine. She almost looks close to tears, but those tears you get from being so pissed off you can't see straight anymore. "Why?" she asks him, and he explains that although Scully may see a monster when she looks at him, he was just feeding the hunger. Scully then stands up for women everywhere-- she tells him he's more than a monster, that he fed on those women's insecurities. Timid says he just gave them what they wanted and they gave him what he needed. Scully's like "Not anymore, scumbag", and he starts saying some Italian poetry that sounds pretty demonic, considering. Scully looks back. "The dead are no longer lonely," he translates. Scully turns and tells the guard to let her out, and Timid's left sans fat for all eternity. Hamburger Helper, anyone?
