What in the world is happening to Fox Mulder? In this exclusive first look photo from The X-Files, David Duchovny's character has gone country. Did you ever in your life think: 1. The X-Files would return for new episodes? and 2. Said new episodes would involve Mulder line dancing? If you answered yes to both of those, well, you're a dark wizard.

In "Babylon," the Monday, Feb. 15 episode of the fan-favorite Fox series, Mulder and Scully (Gillian Anderson) meet and work with FBI agents, Miller (Robbie Amell) and Einstein (Lauren Ambrose) while trying to communicate with a comatose bomber in order to prevent a future attack. Will it be neuroscience or mysticism? So why is Mulder line dancing? They're going to Texas, y'all. But is it as simple as that? It's The X-Files, you get the hint...

The episode, the fifth in the six-episode revival, was written and directed by series creator Chris Carter. In addition to Amell and Ambrose, William B. Davis, the Cigarette Smoking Man, also guest stars.

The X-Files airs Mondays, 8 p.m. on Fox.
