  • You see it wasn’t actually a zombie, but a secret military program to create supersoldiers which was abandoned in the 50s because it was a failure but the disposal site leaked into a cave and gave birth to a parasisic fungus which can seeming reanimate recently deceased corpses by random triggering of the sodium- potassium pump but they aren’t actually reanimated it’s just random convulsions which can generate a rudimentary form of locomotion.

    “Then how did the fungus respond to the Zombie’s name, Scully?”

  • Scully is usually right most of the time. Really there are only a handful of episodes where the spooky option ends up being the most plausible one. Even the stuff about Mulder’s sister and the “walk-ins,” which is ostensibly the most direct confirmation of anything supernatural in the show, is arguably and unreliable narrator trope since it is told to us by the show’s on again off again villain and “confirmed” by Mulder’s vision. Personally I don’t even consider that episode canon because it was such a thematic departure.
