|title=The X-Files Origins: Devil's Advocate
|rating=3.5
|genre=Teens
|summary=Dana Scully can be added to the list of teenaged people upset by their family moving home in those key years. Her naval father being relocated has meant she has been uprooted from a nun's Catholic school to a regular, secular school elsewhere, but echoes of religion are still everywhere – not least a no-longer-used church opposite their new home.

The oppositional, trouble-seeking army brat we first met in [[Fallout (Lois Lane) by Gwenda Bond|Fallout]] has made some friends, got a job as a cub reporter on ''The Daily Scoop'' and even exposed a scandal at her school. Her online relationship with the mysterious Smallville Guy is also going pretty well. But her army general father and her school principal are both still keeping a weather eye on Lois. And newspaper editor Perry White is putting her under pressure for a new story...
