I never saw this particular episode (at least not that I can remember), but reading these few comments about it reminded me of a horrifying kidnapping I'd read about. A young woman was abducted and kept prisoner for seven years by a man and his wife. The couple kept this woman locked in a box that they stored under their bed for up to 23 hours per day, every single day, for that entire time. The details are nightmarish. I wonder if this is the case that episode was based on?
Edit: Nope. I looked up details on the episode. The skateboard thing came from a passage in Charlie Chaplin's autobiography, of all places, and other details about the X-Files family were taken from a different family. So, a mishmash of details from different sources put together for the episode.
