In X-Files: Mulder & Scully Meet the Were-Monster (2016) (season ten, episode three), Scully jokes with Mulder that she's immortal. Nevertheless, it isn't a joke. In X-Files: Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose (1995) (season three, episode four), Mulder and Scully meet Clyde Burckman (Peter Boyle), a life insurance salesman who, after rock star Buddy Holly's death in an airplane crash in 1959, became so obsessed with the death that he acquires the ability to see when everybody going to die. At one point, Scully questions Bruckman about her death, and he simply answers "You don't". Eventually, in X-Files: Tithonus (1999) (season six, episode ten), Scully meets Alfred Fellig (Geoffrey Lewis), a freelance crime photographer who is one hundred forty-nine-years-old and turned into an immortal decades before when he was dying in a hospital. Fellig saw Death directly go for him, but he rejected her, asking that another die instead of him. Death killed a nurse who assisted him, and Fellig lived looking for Death in order to die, being capable of knowing when a person will die and photographing the corpse trying to capture Death in a photo. At the end of the episode, Scully and Fellig are shot by an assassin wanted by Mulder and Scully. She sees Death go for her, and Fellig asks her to turn around her head to avoid dying. Fellig dies, but Scully recovers completely in the hospital, effectively taking on Fellig's immortality. Scully's immortality also appears in X-Files: My Struggle II (2016) (season ten, episode six), after she finds that she is immune to a lethal plague that is isolating the world.
