Nice use of the more ‘alien’ looks to some of the angels to throw someone off, though.

When the incarnation of evil is a monster of the week things have perhaps escalated a bit much.

Scully says she saw a man dressed in black with four faces to the priest that originally asked her to look into the case, and he immediately gets a book and turns to the section that describes cherubim as having the faces of a human, a lion, an eagle, and an ox. He then goes on to describe a story from the apocrypha saying that the children of a cherub and a human would need to have their souls reclaimed by heaven before the Devil got to them, more or less. (This isn’t actually part of the apocrypha, as far as I can tell, so it should be considered an apocryphal apocrypha.)

I said exactly the same thing about Man E Faces at the time! I’m with Scully on this one.

(John: they were children of Nephilim, the four-faced angel dudes)
