Patrick Talks X-Files
by Sci-Fi Wire

The X-Files star Robert Patrick told SCI FI Wire that there will be conflict between Agents Doggett (Patrick) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) and surprising cooperation between Doggett and Reyes (Annabeth Gish). 

"We've picked up right after the birth of Scully's baby," Patrick said in an interview. "We've introduced a couple of new characters [Lucy Lawless as Shannon McMahon and Cary Elwes as Asst. Director Follmer], and we've closed a few doors, while opening up some whole new conspiracies and investigations."

Patrick added, "Let's see, what can I tell you without Chris [Carter] killing me? Scully's not happy with the way Doggett's proceeding with the investigation of the supersoldiers. It's confusing to me, because she flip-flops, and it just doesn't seem like her. There's a reason for that, and I don't know what it is. Doggett's also got a conflict with Kersh [James Pickens Jr.]. I don't trust him. Reyes and Doggett are now very clearly working together."

Speaking specifically of Doggett, Patrick reported that fans can expect Doggett to become the new Mulder in the coming weeks. "I've totally assumed that place on the show and at The X-Files," said the actor, who spent his summer hiatus relaxing with his wife and children. "And that's interesting and unnerving for Doggett. Remember, he was a fast climber in the FBI and very well respected. Now he finds himself totally alienated, and the friends he had in the FBI are no longer his friends."
