| - Realizing that they were dealing with someone more important than they previously thought, the three men hacked into the FBI mainframe and learned that Holly was actually Susanne Modeski. Modeski explained her story to them and how the Army had set her up. They then traveled to a warehouse, where they discovered the bioweapon-laden inhalers in several large crates awaiting deployment. However, Mulder arrived and tried to arrest Modeski and her three companions. Before this could be done, a pair of agents showed up and opened fire on the group. Mulder was doused with the halucionogenic bioweapon and totally helpless as the two men came to kill him. Modeski shot and killed them both, saving Mulder's life before she fled the scene. Moments later, a team of operatives led by X appeared and cleaned up the area, erasing all evidence of any unusual activity. When confronted by Byers, X aimed a gun at his head and fired - but there was no bullet. Confident he had intimidated them enough, X left, but not before declaring that Mulder remain unharmed. Modeski fled in Mulder's car, which she left at a train station before going to the local major newspaper. However, the writers did not believe her story. Byers and his companions met with Modeski outside the newspaper building, and she exhorted them to use their quest for the truth as a weapon against the sinister government conspiracy in which she was involved. As she walked away, a black car appeared rapidly and Modeski was apprehended by X. In 1999, she turned up at DefCON, the Defense Industry's annual conference in Las Vegas. Byers went to her and would learn that despite her shaky loyalty to the government, she was too valuable to them to be killed. Her fiancee, Grant Ellis, had saved her and convinced Modeski that he too was taking the government down from within. In the end it turned out he was lying and they planned to kill her after she gave them her mind control drug Analytic histamine. Thanks to Byers, Langly, Frohike, and Scully, they faked her death and helped her escape into hiding. She said her goodbyes to them all but especially Byers.
