The K Files agents investigate the invisible world of religion alongside Mulder and Scully on a case involving the murders of (false) stigmatics. They meet Kevin, seemingly the real deal, and must protect him from the dark force intent on obliterating what he represents.

This episode marks a milestone for the series, exploring Scully's faith in Catholic mythology for the first time, an accent to Mulder's belief in the invisible world of UFO's and conspiracies. With Scully, the spirit is always the truth and indeed, she is the one tuned in to the right frequency on this case, not Mulder.

Scully's faith throughout the series serves a delicious slice of duality, as it contrasts with her typical skepticism (toward the paranormal anyway). Revelations has a lot to offer in story and action (plus a solid performance from the very young Kevin Zegers of Air Bud fame) but is most fun for the role reversal from our intrepid agents: Scully gets to play the believer and Mulder the skeptic, which is refreshing for everyone, including (clearly) the actors.
