Scully notice the vampire's presence and quickly kills it with Igor's gun. Other vampires appears and charges for Scully.
At the sheriff's office, Mulder and Dimitri finds a terrified Officer Santoro who informs them that he has been hiding when the vampires attacked and killed everyone in Wainwright, including the Inuits and his family, and insists they must leave. Igor arrives at the office and tells them that Scully has been killed. Everyone return to where Scully was and finds three charred vampire corpses, Igor's gun, and Scully's FBI ID card. Mulder doesn't believe that his partner is dead, but Igor asserts that she is gone given from the amount of blood found on the scene. Santoro breaks down and loudly insists they must leave and escape the town to the local airport. The men, much to Mulder's reluctance, agrees to this and take a snowcat to the airport.
On the way, they come across the creature that was freed from Norborg's cave. Santoro, hysterical, jumps out of the snowcat and attempts to kill the creature but is rip in half by the monster. It then tackles the snowcat and causing it to turn over. Mulder and Dimitri are propel out of the vehicle, as Igor is trap under and is at the mercy of the creature. Igor pulls out a grenade from his jacket and detonates it, killing himself along with the creature. Mulder walks to the snowcat's fiery remains and finds the creature's decapitated head, which is barely alive, in which he then throws it into the snowcat's fire. He then sees to Dimitri, who is knocked out from the blast, and heads into a greenhouse to call for help.
As Mulder enters the building he is confronted and attacked by a vampire French. Fortunately, Scully arrives and saves Mulder by turning on the greenhouse's ultra-violet lights which incinerates French. She sees to Mulder just as the lights suddenly turn off and they are then surrounded by the vampires. However, for unknown reasons, they suddenly left as the vampire girl who was 'rescue' by Scully waves goodbye.
