This is Vince GIlligan's first episode for the show. Dr. Banton is involved in a freak accident in a particle acceleration and now anyone his shadow touches is vaporized or broken down (or something). Banton is taken by X and experiments are performed on him, well, more like he's bombarded by strobe lights in a lab. The camera zooms in on his face and a tear streams down it as a sound effects of pulsing lights runs through the end credits, which is quite eerie.

This was not as good as I remember it being the first time I watched it, but the ending really saved it for me.

Secondary Characters in this episode: X, Dr. Chester Ray Banton
