Line 42:
* [[The Profiler]]
* [[Put on a Bus]]: Well, a spaceship for a while, and afterward he was on the run.
* [[Saw Star Wars 27 Times]]: Confesses to having sat through ''[[Plan 9 from Outer Space]]'' 42 times. He claims that the sheer badness of the film numbs his brain, allowing him to make intuitive leaps and solve problems that have him stumped.
* [[Seeker Archetype]]
* [[Single-Issue Psychology]]: The childhood trauma of his sister's abduction has defined much of his adult life.
Line 56:

A forensic pathologist with a background in physics, she was assigned to work with Mulder ostensibly in order to use her scientific knowledge debunk his work; however, she was less predictable than the conspiracy had hoped.
----
* [[Action Girl]]
Line 67:
* [[Bad Liar]]: It's not that the lies she comes up with are ridiculous, she's just so naturally honest that her discomfort is very obvious whenever she tries to lie.
* [[Bokukko]]: In the Japanese dub.
* [[Chew Toy]]: Scully has a tendency to get beaten up quite a bit.
* [[The Chosen One]]: It's implied in many of the religiously-themed episodes that God has some sort of special task in mind for her, although exactly what she's called to do is never made clear.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander's Minder]]: Mulder isn't quite a [[Cloudcuckoolander]] in the usual sense (though he comes across that way to lots of people in-universe), but Scully has the traditional role of stopping him from doing stupid reckless things, putting together the actual evidence to support his weird leaps of intuition, explaining and defending his crazy ideas to other people, etc.
Line 148:
* [[Foil]]: For Scully.
* {{spoiler|[[Heel Face Turn]]: At the end of the sixth season, she betrays the Cigarette-Smoking Man, giving Scully a book that can save Mulder.}}
* {{spoiler|[[The Mole]]}}: Scully suspects she's working for the conspiracy pretty early on; Mulder still considers her a friend and believes in her. {{spoiler|They're both right.}}
* [[New Old Flame]]: for Mulder.
* [[Psycho Ex-Girlfriend]]: The psycho part is not obvious until "The Sixth Extinction," where she visits Mulder, who's confined in a psychiatric hospital and being [[Mind Rape]]d by psychic influence from an alien artifact, and makes a speech that can be summed up as "I've always loved you, Fox, and now that you're in five-point restraints we can finally be together."
Line 179:
* [[Arbitrary Skepticism]]: Worse than Scully.
* [[By-The-Book Cop]]
* [[Chuck Cunningham Syndrome]]: Not mentioned at all in [[The X -Files: I Want to Believe|the second movie]], even when Scully's looking for someone at the FBI who can help her.
* [[Dark and Troubled Past]]: His dead son.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: [[Terminator|T-1000]].
Line 193:
----
* [[Brainy Brunette]]
* [[Chuck Cunningham Syndrome]]: Not mentioned at all in [[The X -Files: I Want to Believe|the second movie]], even when Scully's looking for someone at the FBI who can help her.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: She's, um...quirky is putting it charitably.
* [[Genki Girl]]: By the standards of this show, anyway. She's by far the most cheerful of the major characters.
Line 267:
=== The Syndicate ===
 
A mysterious and sinister group who essentially rule the world from behind the scenes. They're determined to conceal the existence of extraterrestrial life from humanity by any means necessary, but their motivation and ultimate goals remain unclear for much of the series.
 
Despite the name, not actually an example of [[The Syndicate]]. The term is actually rarely used on the show, so you'll often see fans referring to them as "the Consortium" or just "the Conspiracy."
Line 354:
=== X ===
 
Mulder's second informant, [[Darker and Edgier|colder and less friendly]] than Deep Throat.

* [[Badass]]
