Line 44:
Scully and Doggett bring the psychic, Sharon Pearl, to meet Billy. After touching Billy, Pearl says that she feels powerful forces acting through him, and that she senses emanations from Doggett as well. She then goes into a [[seizure]], the mysterious symbol forming on her forehead. Scully and Doggett later notice Purnell drive up to the Underwood home. Purnell panics when he sees Billy in his car, but after a short pursuit, Purnell is arrested. The agents fail to find Billy in the vehicle. Elsewhere, Josh Underwood is abducted at a gas station while looking at a [[horse trailer]]. The symbol appears on the trailer.
 
After interrogation by Doggett, Purnell confesses to snatching Billy in 1990 on behalf of someone else. Doggett recognizes Purnell was also a victim, and with enough prodding, gets a name: Cal Jeppy. The police and the two FBI agents go to Jeppy’s home and find Josh in a compartment under the floor of his horse trailer. Doggett chases Jeppy into the woods, catches him, and discovers the skull of Billy that Purnell dug up earlier. As the Underwoods stand over the shallow grave of their long dead son, Doggett express incredulity that the case's conclusion was an instance of justice from beyond the grave and laments an inability to explain it; Scully reasons that the body is explanation enough and that the important thing is that Josh Underwood was saved from the same fate.<ref>{{cite web|title=Invocation|url=httphttps://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/xfiles/episodeguide/eight/page05.shtml|work=BBC Cult|publisher=BBC|accessdate=11 May 2012}}</ref>
