"Trevor" is the seventeenth episode of the sixth season of the TV series "The X-Files". The episode belongs to the "monster of the week" type and is not related to the main "mythology" of the series.
Mulder and Scully are looking for an escaped criminal who is suspected of murdering a prison guard committed under mysterious circumstances. But when trying to detain him, the agents discover that the criminal has supernatural abilities: he can pass through solid electrically conductive objects.

Inmate Wilson Rawls, nicknamed Pinker, gains the ability to pass through objects after being caught in the epicenter of a tornado. Mulder suggests that the appearance of his abilities is associated with electrical discharges formed inside the tornado.
The matter of the objects through which Rawls passes (or which pass through his body) changes and becomes brittle. If the body of another person acts as such an object, then the place of interaction with the Pinker is charred and destroyed.
Apparently, the prisoner can control this ability: he interacts with most objects like an ordinary person, and only sometimes, when circumstances require it, passes through them. For some reason, he cannot pass through glass and mirrors, as a result of which he dies. Mulder suggests that this is due to the fact that glass is a good dielectric. However, this idea is not confirmed by the plot of the episode: Pinker easily passes through wooden doors and walls, while a metal pan hits him in the face. Rubber bullets fired by Mulder at point-blank range also do not harm him.
