The X-Files Revival: 21 WTF Moments From Episodes 3 & 4

15. Someone Familiar Huffing Paint

Tyler Labine's stoner kid has grown up and graduated from smoking dung to huffing paint in Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster, and he brought his curly-haired girlfriend along with him. We first met Labine's nameless X-Files character in a couple of episodes in the show's third season, long before he had his own Fox show or was appearing in Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. It's quite amusing that the show opted to bring such a relatively minor pair of characters back, but then, Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster mined nostalgia for all it was worth, quite successfully. Here, he's a clear spoof on the paint huffer guy meme that made the internet rounds a while back. Maybe stick to just being a pot head in future, stoner kid... err, man.
