THE X-FILES X-MAS SPECIAL

Previously on The X-Files… For years, FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully toiled in the X-Files Unit, a oneoffice division of the Bureau dealing with cases deemed unsolvable and related to unexplained phenomena.

Eventually, both agents left the FBI and began a new life together in peaceful anonymity. However, recent events prompted them to return to the Bureau and the X-Files.

Following an investigation into an otherworldly entity known as Mr. Zero, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover ordered the establishment of the X-Files Unit, with Agent Bing Ellinson and Special Employee Millie Ohio as its first personnel.
