When Fox Mulder arrived at Bria's apartment, cop cars surrounded the building. After flashing his badge, he learned that the FBI's own Ken Grassman had murdered Bria and then turned the gun on himself. However, the evidence suggested a second weapon must have been fired. Only a single bullet was discharged from Grassman's Glock19. The two bullets in Ken were fired from a Smith and Wesson.

Bria had been one of Mulder's closest friends, and her death hit him hard. It seemed, to him, that those he was close to were doomed to die... and that infuriated the man.

He checked all her computer files and came up with nothing. For twelve hours Mulder searched Bria's apartment. She appeared to have had a room mate, but there was no sign of him or her. The guestroom was empty.

Eventually, Fox found Agent Thompson's personal journal.

"Agent Mulder!" came a voice from the hallway.

Pocketing the journal, Fox found a CSI detective dusting for fingerprints.

"What have you found?" Mulder asked.

"We've got confirmation on these prints." she gestured to the wall, "A former FBI agent."

"Ken Grassman wasn't former FBI." Mulder corrected.

"It wasn't Agent Grassman, Agent Mulder. A man by the name of Alex Krycek, missing from the Bureau for two years."
