Lucy Kazdin (played by C. C. H. Pounder) is an agent of the FBI whose only appearance in The X-Files was in the Season 2 episode, Duane Barry. Kazdin is the special agent in charge of the Hostage Rescue Team entrusted with getting Duane Barry to free the four people he's holding at gunpoint in a travel agency. Fox Mulder is called into the negotiations with Barry, when it becomes apparent that the escaped mental patient is ranting about alien abduction. Although extremely skeptical, Kazdin enlists Mulder's help in the hope that his background in the phenomena will connect with Barry and eventually lead to him releasing the hostages.
