Was an okay episode. It was good to see some Native American folklore on x files, really enjoyed the story telling of the manitou. And the duality of the local cop ensuring he balances his professionalism with respect for indigenous roots.
I didn't have much clarity on why and how Parker became the manitou or werewolf. I think the why's were somewhat rushed. But it seems every 8 years a new werewolf appears.
Throughout the episode the caged mountain lion foreshadowed the arrival of the werewolf. Which I thought was really interesting as scully used it to rationalise the mystery of the case away when she was attacked in the night.
Scully's refusal to accept what is in front of her is getting increasingly annoying.
