Has Mulder Met His Match on The X-Files? Lauren Ambrose Is Here to Shake Things Up

Exclusive: There's a new FBI agent in town and she's not letting Mulder get away with anything

Can Agent Mulder deal with two fiery redheads in his life? You're about to find out in the Monday, Feb. 15 episode of The X-Files.

In the exclusive sneak peek below, Mulder (David Duchovny) goes toe-to-toe with Agent Einstein (Six Feet Under star Lauren Ambrose). She's also a medical doctor FBI agent. Hm, Scully 2.0?

"Enlighten me, Agent Mulder, how 9 years of college, three degrees and two years at Quantico has left me such a simpleton," Einstein asks him.

"Not a simpleton, a mugwump," he replies.

A mugwump? She's not going to take that criticism too well.

Mulder and Scully meet Einstein and Miller (The Flash veteran Robbie Amell) after an art gallery showing potentially offensive work is bombed. The dynamic duos search for ways to communicate with the comatose bomber to various degrees of success.

The episode was written and directed by series creator Chris Carter, features Mulder line dancing and a guest appearance by William B. Davis, the Cigarette Smoking Man.

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