And Mulder thinks maybe it isn't time-travelling then, if there's so much anachronism, maybe they just jumped universes.
"You mean maybe King Arthur--"
"Prince," Mulder corrects.
"...Prince," Scully amends, "Arthur is an alien?"
No, not jumped planets. Jumped universes. Maybe they're in a parallel reality where strawberries and 15th-century castles are around during Arthurian times. It would explain so much. Did you see Guinevere? Have you seen Merlin?
Maybe, says Scully, maybe they've wandered into some sort modern commune, like the Amish or the Mennonites. They could be so completely cut off from the world, voluntarily or otherwise, that they have no conception of what the modern world is like. That would explain their ignorance, at our clothes, our accents.
"Are you a Mark Twain fan, Scully?"
She frowns. "What does that have to do with anything?"
"A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court," says Mulder. "The Yankee first thought he was in a madhouse." And he grins his cocksure shit-eating grin. "Are you a Carroll fan?"
Scully quotes, "We're all mad here."
AND AND. Can't you just imagine Gaius saying to Scully OH SCIENCE, I KNOW ALL ABOUT SCIENCE. And Scully is just like, *facepalm*.
Does Uther suspect Mulder and Scully of being sorcerors??
