## Season One
### "Hindsight, Part 1" [1.01]

    Kitty/Colossus: (are running a course in the Danger Room)
    Kitty: [To Piotr, who's trapped by two metal walls]. Admit it, Peter. You're being schooled by a girl. (a mechanical arm sneaks up and wraps around her arms) Whoa!
    Piotr: [After Kitty gets captured by a mechanical arm]. Well, well. Look's like school is out. (laughs as Kitty struggles)
    Kurt: (teleports through a bunch of shots then looks up to Kitty's cries for help)
    Kitty: [Trapped by a mechanical arm]. Somebody get me down!
    Kurt: [Teleporting near her] Why don't you just phase through it?
    Kitty: And fall on my face? No thanks. Now come on and help me out.
    Kurt: You're an X-man. Do it yourself. [Teleports away]
    Kitty: Kurt! (sighs) Argh. [Struggles then looks at her best friend expectantly] Peter!
    Piotr: (grins till he feel himself get lifted by a large magnet) Uh oh, this is not so good. (as the Magnet is placed next to a stuck Kitty) Hello, Kitty!
    Kitty: [Groans] Great! (meaning she wanted him to held her down) You're a lot of help.
    Kurt: [Sitting near a cylider] Five more seconds and I win! [He gets stuck to the ceiling by glue then loads of automatic weapons cock ready to fire]
    Kitty: Uh... what just happened?
    Piotr: [Glares at Logan] He happened.
    Hank: What about you, Logan? You're not the type to pop in for no reason.
    Logan: It's those freaking Mardees. They're out of control, Hank.
    Hank: Those cells we emptied... they'll be full again tomorrow. And the next day.
    Logan: Yeah... Hank, we both know what's going on. There's a war coming. And it ain't gonna be pretty.
    Hank: I agree. So, what's next?
    Logan: ...We bring back the X-Men.

### "Hindsight, Part 2" [1.02]

    Pietro: Give Senator Kelly a message from the Brotherhood: There's no stopping the mutants. We're coming for him next.
    Rogue: Don't compare yourself to me. You're a criminal. You're making it hard for all of us.
    Domino: It was hard long before we got involved. We're not the ones who picked this fight, Rogue. We're just standing up for ourselves, and for those who can't fight back.
    Rogue: By terrorizing the city?
    Domino: By refusing to back down. Rogue, don't you ever get tired of being bullied? Of being hated just because you're different? And now they want us to register. Come on, what's next, locking us up? It's time we stop being victims. It's time we unite. Rogue, you feel the same way, I know you do.
    Domino: We're not the X-Men. We don't abandon our own. And if you doubt that, just look at Toad.
    [Rundown apartment: Scott is watching a news report]
    Newscaster: [On TV] With his Mutant Registration Act hanging in the balance, the senator has promised a press conference sometime tomorrow from an undisclosed location.
    [Scott tries to turn off the TV using the remote, but is unsuccessful. He throws aside the remote, then removes his glasses and blasts the TV into the wall]
    Logan: [Kicks down the door, then approaches Scott] Nice digs. You done feeling sorry for yourself?
    Scott: Don't go there, Logan.
    Logan: Look at you. You're no good to anybody now, are you?
    Scott: [Angrily] Get outta here!
    Logan: So without Jean, there's no one worth fighting for. Huh, so much for the big hero. When the going gets tough, the tough pack it in. Is that it? Huh?
    [Scott blasts Logan out of his apartment through a wall]
    Logan: Good talk.
    [Scott looks at Logan, then walks away]
    Warren: Logan, what happened today... You tried to save a man who hates you. That is exactly what Charles Xavier would've done.
    [Bobby's house]
    Hank: Bobby is eighteen after all. Legally, he can decide for himself.
    Bobby's mother: You are not getting our son back! We will not let him leave this house!
    Bobby's father: You guys nearly got him killed last year.
    Hank: But-
    Bobby: [Comes down the stairs] This isn't fair! I wanna go with them!
    Bobby's mother: Bobby, wait for us upstairs.
    Hank: Mr. and Mrs. Drake, please. Just talk to him about it.
    Bobby's mother: I've already called the police. They're on their way.
    [Bobby's father slams the door in Hank's face]
    Logan: Okay, we tried it your way. [Kicks open the door, to Bobby] You comin' or what?
    [Excited, Bobby runs out of the house]
    Logan: [To Bobby's parents] Your son's a mutant. Deal with it.
    [Hank closes the door. He, Logan, and Bobby get into the helicopter and fly away]
    Bobby: All right, the X-Men are back!
    Logan: Well, kind of. It's just us.
    Bobby: Oh. What about Kitty? Couldn't you catch her before she left?
    Logan: You know where she is?
    Bobby: She told me she's heading to Genosha. Her ship left this morning.

### "Hindsight, Part 3" [1.03]

    Emma: I've decided to join the X-Men.
    Logan: You decided? ...Well, here's my decision: NO!
    Kitty: [To Bobby, about Emma Frost] She's a telepath, remember? She knows what you're thinking.
    [Rundown apartment: Scott is sleeping, the TV still embedded in the wall. He wakes up after hearing a sound, then sits up and is about to remove his glasses]
    Logan: [Unsheathes his claws in Scott's face] Holster those eyebeams, frat boy.
    Scott: There's nothing else you could say, Logan. I'm not coming back.
    Logan: Magneto's got the professor.
    Scott: And Jean?
    Logan: [Retracts his claws] No, just Charles. Now, are you in?
    [Scott thinks for a moment, then turn to look at Logan, a look of determination on his face]
    Emma: You'd like to ask me about Jean. So do it.
    Scott: Would have detected her if she was in Genosha?
    Emma: Yes. And given time I could locate her wherever she is. Assuming I'm around.
    Scott: What do you mean?
    Emma: Ask Logan. If he has his way I'll be gone my tomorrow.
    Logan: Whatever's eatin' away at us, we get past it. We rise to the occasion, because we're a team. And we got a job to do. [Puts on his mask]. The world needs the X-Men.

### "Overflow" [1.04]

    Xavier: Don't be alarmed, Logan. We're still at the institute. But this is what you might call... a meeting of the minds on the Astral Plane. It's through here I'm able to communicate to you from the future.
    Logan: It's... really good to see you, Chuck.
    Xavier: And you, my friend. I only wish I were bringing better news.
    Emma: Your attempts to manipulate me are demeaning. If I perform to your satisfaction, you favor me by extending my stay here. If I assist you, that ends. Now.
    Logan: I'm manipulating you? You showed up at my door and traded your telepathy for a spot on the team. Who's using who?
    Emma: I found the Professor for you. I've earned my place with the X-Men.
    Logan: Just like the others, you have to continue earning it every day.
    Emma: But you trust them.
    Logan: Because they've earned that, too.
    Wolverine: Diamond? Would've been nice to know you could that.
    Emma: It's not my favorite form. It prevents me from using my telepathy.
    Emma: Shoot her down!
    Cyclops: Are you insane!?
    Emma: It's her or Africa! You choose!

### "Thieves Gambit" [1.05]

    Magma: Well, I guess this is goodbye.
    Wolverine: You don't have to go back to Brazil, you know. We got plenty of room at the institue.
    Man: Amara!
    Magma: I...can't.
    Wolverine: If you change your mind, it's standing invitation.
    Magma: Thank you. Goodbye.
    Wolverine: Amara, have to take the collar back.
    Magma: Please. Let me keep it.
    Wolverine: I would. But, unfortunately, it ain't healthy to wear it too long.
    Magma: Okay.

### "Greetings from Genosha" [1.10]

    Magneto: And and Wanda so liked you.
    Nightcrawler: This is your paradise, Magneto!? Imprisoning your own people!?
    Magneto: "Imprisoned" is such a harsh word.
    Wanda: Please, Kurt. Try to understand. My father is doing this for the good of mutant-kind.
    Nightcrawler: Tell that the ones he's holding prisoner.
    Magneto: Don't be foolish, Nightcrawler. You're tired, wounded. It'd be foolish to try.
    Nightcrawler: I'm no fool.
    Attempts teleport all the way to the institute]
    Wanda: Is he...? If he reaches the X-Men...
    Magneto: He won't.

### "Past Discretions" [1.11]

    [Kristie discovers Logan outside her house]
    Kristie: [Enraged] You!
    [Logan retracts his claws. Kristie uses her powers to throw a boulder at Logan. He pushes off the boulder. Kristie dismounts her horse and uses her powers to envelope Logan in stone]
    Kristie: I waited a long time for this.
    [Logan looks at Kristie before she finishes enveloping him in stone]
    [Logan, enveloped in stone, awakes to find himself inside the house and Kristie standing before him]
    Kristie: Why?
    Wolverine: I don't know.
    Kristie: You don't know?!
    [Kristie uses her powers to envelope Logan's mouth in stone, suffocating him. She lets go and the stone stops enveloping his mouth]
    Kristie: I was six years old when you took my father. I need to know why!
    Wolverine: I did come after your father, but that's all I remember. They wiped my memory. I'm here to find answers too.
    [Kristie becomes surprised. A tranquilizer dart flies through the broken window and strikes Kristie in the left side of her neck. She falls to the floor unconscious]
    Sabretooth: [Breaks through the door and advances on Logan] Way to go, runt. Just couldn't leave well enough alone, could you?
    [Logan glares at Sabretooth]
    Sabertooth: Hey, Maverick. Quite a daughter you got there. She's definitely someone we'll wanna look at.
    Nord: [Surprised] Daughter?

### "Battle Lines" [1.13]

    Wolverine: What'd you find out?
    Emma Frost: Nothing. Rogue's mind is a broken patchwork of thoughts from everyone she's ever touched. Sorting it out will take days, maybe weeks. Change of heart about her story?
    Wolverine: [Walking ahead] Rogue ain't stupid. She had to know how we'd react, but she came anyway. [Enters room] Here's the plan, we're... why aren't you guys geared up?
    Cyclops: What, you can't tell me you believe her. Not after...
    Wolverine: [Jabs finger in Cyclops face] One, I told you to get ready, so you should be ready. And two, if those Brotherhood clowns wanna mess with us, then we'll go after them.
    Emma Frost: Wait. We won't need to. They're here.
    Quicksilver: [Zooms into room, grabs Emma's wrist and face slams her into pillar] Take out the telepath first; check. Invite ourselves in; check. [Causes an avalanche mudslide to crash into window and carry away Cyclops, Iceman and Shadowcat]
    Iceman and Shadowcat: Whoa.
    Quicksilver: It's now safe to wipe the floor with the X-Men.
    Toad: Ha! What are you gonna do now? Can't risk hurting... [Cyclops blasts him out]
    Wolverine: Emma. Emma, wake up.. [Quicksilver is zooming ahead] Pryde, phase! [Quicksilver slams into pillar]
    Shadowcat: [Blob has jumped airborne] Watch out! [Blob pins Wolverine on floor and crashes through all floors to basement]
    Wolverine: Rogue, it's possible... and I'm not saying for sure., but it's possible I owe you an apology. [Rogue takes off glove and Wolverine flies up the devastation cavity, cornering Domino with other X-Men with her aiming her guns undecidedly] Nobody's that lucky, darling.
    Rogue: [Touches Domino's shoulder from behind] Dom, don't.
    Domino: [Cocks and aims gun under Rogue's chin] We all choose sides, Rogue. [Rogue touches Domino's cheek and incapacitates her]
    Emma Frost: [Stands up] Oh, my nose. I think Quicksilver broke my nose. [Hands glasses to Cyclops] Here.
    Cyclops: Thanks.
    Wolverine: Let's dump this trash at the corner and call the MRD on them. Pietro here will like that.
    Wolverine: It's just a kid.
    Emma: I've broken through the static. The girl's name is Tildie. Juggernaut's placed a device on her. Something that's causing her to lash out. She can't stop. You have to remove the device.
    Forge: [Enters the room] Guys! Something's happening. You should see this.
    Kitty: [Approaches Forge] And where the heck were you?!
    [Forge smiles sheepishly]
    Tilde: Who are you?
    Rogue: We're the X-Men.

### "Stolen Lives" [1.14]

    Emma: Who exactly is Sinister?
    Beast: He's a mutant scientist who collects genetic samples of other mutants. Usually by force.
    Emma: How charming. And why did your Mr. Sinister want to do this?
    Beast: Supposedly to create the ultimate mutant.
    Storm: And years ago he was intent in using Jean Grey in his experiments but we stopped him.
    Scott: What have you done with Jean!? Tell me!!
    Scott: Just- just give me Jean. That's all I want.
    Sinister: I don't have Jean Grey.
    Scott: But Arclyte...
    Sinister: That confession was to lure you here.
    Scott: No!!
    Sinister: Restrain him.
    [After the rest of the X-Men leave, Logan comes into Scott's room]
    Logan: That just warms the heart, don't it? Sure, I'm glad you're alive and all. But you and me? We got a problem. You've got a choice to make, Summers: Be an X-Man or don't. 'Cause this garbage ain't gonna fly with me. You wanna go chase ghosts? Fine. But if you're gonna be here, be here. Xavier wouldn't kick you out, but don't think for a second I won't.
    Scott: She's out there, I know it.
    Logan: Then go look for her, on your own. Because you're either one of the team, or you're gone. Now which is it?
    Scott: I'll stay.
    Logan: What's that?
    Scott: It's over. I'm staying here.
    Logan: Good.
    [Logan leaves Scott's room. Scott starts thinking about Jean.]
    Doctor: Can you tell us your name?
    Jean: I... don't know. I can't remember.

### 'Badlands" [1.16]

    Emma: I'm afraid his memory is much like yours, Logan.
    Kristy: [Heartbroken] No.
    Wolverine: It's gonna be okay, kid.
    Emma: Fortunately, it's not all dreadful news. I was successful in recovering some faint memories of you, Kristie.
    Nord: Kristie.
    Kristie: Daddy?

### "Backlash" [1.18]

    [Wolverine and Rogue exit the mansion]
    Rogue: What is going on, Logan? Who are these people? What do they want from you!? [Wolverine goes over to his motorcycle] Logan!
    Wolverine: [Gets on his motorcycle] Get on. We have to go. [Turns on his motorcycle and revs the engine]
    Rogue: Go where? [Turns off the motorcycle] Tell me what this is all about!?
    Wolverine: A woman.
    Rogue: Are you serious?
    Wolverine: It was a few years ago. Might as well have been another lifetime. Her name was Mariko. She meant a lot to me, but her father wanted her to marry a guy named Harada. He was Japanese nobility, and a member of the criminal Yakuza. I was gaijin, an outsider. He wanted to fight me for Mariko. And I accepted. Harada was a mutant; he could supercharge his sword to cut through anything. Me? I didn't even need a sword.
    [Logan and Rogue arrive outside the Japanese Embassy]
    Rogue: But you won. Why would she...?
    Wolverine: Didn't matter. Minds were already made up.
    [Wolverine and Rogue make their way towards a fence]
    Rogue: You're seriously just going to sneak into the Japanese Embassy?
    Wolverine: Yeah.
    Rogue: What makes you so sure he's even...?
    Wolverine: [Interrupts Rogue] Because he's a coward. And this is where he'd hide. [Starts feeling the fence] He thinks he's safe here. [Takes a few steps back] He's wrong.
    Rogue: I don't get it. He goes to all this trouble, he gets the girl. What else does he want?
    Wolverine: What he's always wanted: A fight to the death.
    [Rogue is shocked. Wolverine starts to make his way into the embassy]
    Wolverine: Mariko, it's okay. It's me.
    Mariko: Logan-san. You should not be here.
    Wolverine: I had no choice.
    Mariko: You promised you would not see me.
    Wolverine: That was before your husband kidnapped my friends. Mariko, talk to me. Why is he doing this?
    Mariko: My husband has strong hold over the Yakuza clan. He must cleanse his past of all failure. He has never been beaten.
    Wolverine: Except by me.
    Mariko: So he is forcing your hand.
    Wolverine: Mariko, please. Tell me where they are.
    Mariko: There is a warehouse near the docks. The sakura marks the front. Do you know it?
    Rogue: So that was her, huh?
    Wolverine: What, you listening in?
    Rogue: Yeah. Who wouldn't?

### "Backlash" [1.18]

    [Logan, having finished his talk with Charles, makes his way outside]
    Hank: [Approaches Logan along with Warren] Were you able to communicate with the professor?
    Logan: [To Hank] No. We're on our own. [To Warren] What'd you find out, Warren?
    Warren Forge was right. Something big is happening in the morning. It has to do with "Project: Wide Awake".
    Logan: [To Hank] Hank, better assemble the team. [Heads off]
    Warren: [To Hank] Say, uh, this is pretty much it, isn't it? If those Sentinels are activated, that's the beginning of the end.
    Hank: That looks to be the case.
    Warren: Then– better count me in.
    Hank: [Concerned] Warren, it's your father's facility. He'll see you.
    Warren: Times are changing. I can't let him control who I am. Not anymore. [Smiles ]Besides, it'll finally give us something to talk about.
    Hank: [Puts his arm around Warren] You're assuming we're going to survive?
    Warren: I'm an optimist.
    [Hank and Warren head off]
    [Wolverine and Shadowcat are arguing as the rest of the X-Men look on]
    Nightcrawler: He wanted me to tell her. I said I'd rather face 100 of these Sentinels.
    Beast: Good move.
    Shadowcat: [Angrily] What do you mean, I'm not going?!
    Wolverine: Pryde, will you calm down? Someone has to stay here with the kid.
    [Shadowcat turns to look at Tilde, who is observing her and Wolverine from above]
    Shadowcat:: But why me? I'm an X-Man, not a babysitter!
    Wolverine: One, you can defend her, and two, if things go bad, you can get her outta here. [Puts his hand on Shadowcat's shoulder] The last thing we need is Tilde getting upset, if you know what I mean. [Takes his hand off Shadowcat's shoulder]
    Shadowcat: [Sighs] You should've trashed that place when you had the chance.
    [[Quicksilver defeats the MRD soldiers]
    Blob: How could the MRD even find us? Nobody knows we're here.
    Quicksilver: Magneto does. He cut us loose. And nothing would make him happier than seeing us rot in an MRD prison.
    Domino: [Shocked] Magneto turned on us? Why would he do that? We risked our lives for him.
    [Quicksilver makes his way to Toad, who is trying to free himself from the net, with Blob and Domino following behind]
    Quicksilver: Don't even try to understand that guy. I've spent my whole life doing it.
    Avalanche: [Holding a helmet to his ear] Hey, MRD backup is close. [Hears static inside the helmet] Something else too. [To the rest of the Brotherhood] The Sentinels are active and taking down the X-Men right now.
    Blob: [Smiles evilly] Good. I hate those guys.
    Quicksilver Well, then. [Crosses his arms and smiles evilly] Here's our next move: We're gonna save the X-Men.
    Toad: [Confused] Uh, come again?

### "Guardian Angel" [1.19]

    Wolverine: [Enters medical examination room] How is he?
    Beast: His injuries are serious. Angel, all things considered, you shouldn't have left the hospital.
    Angel: I... I couldn't stay there. Not after... Just tell me... Will they grow back?
    Beast: Uh, given time, perhaps. But it's like losing a limb, and...
    Storm: Warren, right now what's important is that you heal. Everything else can wait.
    Beast: She's right. We'll take care of you here.
    Angel: Someone came to me. He said he could give me back my wings.
    Wolverine: This magician got a name?
    Angel: Essex.
    Wolverine: [To Beast and Storm] Sinister. [To Angel] Come on, Angel. You know better than that. He's bad news.
    Angel: He knows mutant DNA better than anyone.
    Beast: That's because he harvests it by force in his barbaric attempts to create the perfect mutant. [Puts hand on Angel's shoulder] He's an evil man.
    Wolverine: And helping you is the last thing on his mind.
    Angel: [Sweeps off Beast's hand] But I can't live like this!
    Wolverine: I understand that, but Sinister is not the answer.
    Angel: [Lying on table] Will they... will they be the same?
    Sinister: They'll be glorious.
    Angel: How will you...
    Sinister: Shh. No more questions. When you awaken, you'll be a new man. [Turns on machinery with tubes attaching to Angel's back that start pumping, then Angel is standing entirely upgraded before Sinister] My Archangel.
    Storm: Well, could Cerebro locate him?
    Wolverine: Yeah. It seems he's headed to Worthington Pharmaceuticals.
    Storm: There's something else, isn't there?
    Wolverine: It looks like he's been altered. [Storm gasps] I think Sinister got ahold of him.
    TV woman: Your family has been torn apart. Your friends have all turned their backs on you. You can't even look at yourself in the mirror all because of one thing, the X-Gene, that tiny mutation that has ruined your life. But thanks to the dedicated scientists of Worthington Pharmaceuticals, the Legacy cure can now reverse the damage. Yes, we can make you normal again, because we care.
    Senator Robert Kelly: [By teleconference] Nice. I like that caring angle. Now what is it, Warren?
    Warren Worthington Jr.: My son is missing, Robert.
    Senator Robert Kelly: But why worry? You know he'll turn up eventually. After all, he couldn't have gotten very far.
    Angel: [Smashes through window] Hello, Father.
    Senator Robert Kelly: Warren? What is this?
    Angel: Retribution. [Smashes TV and swipes table to side]
    Warren: [Backs against wall] What's happened to you?
    Angel: You took something from me, Father, and I got it back.
    Warren Worthington Jr.: No. No, this isn't you.
    Angel: It is now. [Throws four metal spikes pinning Warren to wall] Eye for an eye, Father. And what is it you hold dear, hmm? Your empire? And it's only fitting I take it from you, starting with your cure! [Flies out window and flies into another window of lower floor, with Warren taking elevator to ground floor to observe smashed laboratory] Come to say goodbye to your legacy?
    Warren Worthington Jr.: Please, Son, you don't know what you're doing!
    Angel: My mind has never been so clear! And next, your Sentinel factories are going down! You'll get to watch that, too! Now let's go!
    Warren Worthington Jr.: No! [Slams vault door shut and slides down to floor with head in hands in extreme torment with Angel scraping at door with wings]
    Storm: I should go in. He'll listen to me.
    Wolverine: After what Sinister did to him, he won't be listening to anybody. [Jumps from helicopter through Angel's-smashed-window]
    Angel: [Breaks open door of Warren's office] You're coming with me one way or another.
    Wolverine: [Slams Angel against wall] Angel, this ain't the way.
    Angel: What do you know, Wolverine? [Shoves Wolverine afar who extends claws]
    Wolverine: Because I've been where you are. Look at me. I wasn't born like this.
    Angel: But you didn't lose anything.
    Wolverine: I lost everything. My past, my memories... I'll never get them back.
    Angel: I know.
    Wolverine: And if you had the chance, you'd go after the people who did it to you. That's because I'm a monster, kid. You're not. Hurting your father won't help. Now listen...
    Angel: I'm through listening! [Throws spikes at Wolverine with fight ensuing]
    Wolverine: [Gets Angel in headlock] You've always used your wings to help people, not hurt them. This is all Sinister. [Angel throws Wolverine ahead then swipes him to window, then Wolverine kicks Angel to ground, jumping over him] I won't let you do something you'll regret, Angel. Trust me. It'll haunt you for the rest of your life.
    Angel: Don't fight me, Wolverine. We're on the same side.
    Wolverine: I don't know which side you're on, but it ain't mine!
    Storm: [Flies down] Nor mine!
    Angel: Get out of my way now!
    Storm: Warren, please. This isn't like you.
    Angel: Storm, it's over! Everything's changed! It can't be like it was before!
    Storm: Yes, it can! We can help you! Just stop what you're doing!
    Angel: [Ruby on Angel's cap glows] No! Now my father has to pay! [Storm conjures lightning directing it to Angel knocking him out]
    Warren Worthington Jr.: Is he all right?!
    Wolverine: Does he look all right to you?!
    Warren Worthington Jr.: What?! You think this is my fault?! Someone else did this to him!
    Wolverine: Don't kid yourself!
    Warren Worthington Jr.: I just wanted what was best for my son.
    Storm: We don't believe that any more than Warren did. [Looks back to Angel realizing he's disappeared] Can you track him?
    Wolverine: There's no scent. Sinister made sure of that. [Storm gazes up to birds reflectively at lakeshore bench with Wolverine walking up and puts arm round Storm] We'll get him back. I promise.
    Senator Robert Kelly: [To Warren standing at smashed window of office] What do you mean you're out?!
    Warren Worthington Jr.: The cure is wrong! The Sentinels are wrong! I was wrong!
    Senator Robert Kelly: Yeah?! Then so was I, [pointing] by trusting that you'd see this through to the end!
    Warren Worthington Jr.: The end of what, Robert?! The world?! [Turns to him] Because that's where we're heading!
    Senator Robert Kelly: [Pointing hand becomes spread and lowered] You helped draw the line between us and them!
    Warren Worthington Jr.: And it's growing fainter every day! The damage we caused, the lives we ruined... maybe we're the problem! [Turns back to window]
    Senator Robert Kelly: You think you can just stop it?! Then you're a fool! Powerful people are behind us! [Walks to door] It's out of your hands! Sorry, Warren, in this war, humanity will win! Mutants will lose! And when the dust finally settles, we'll have you to thank! [Walks away]

### "Breakdown" [1.20]

    Scott Summers: [After a perilous obstacle course] I don't know why you even brought me here.
    Charles Xavier: You're too hard on yourself, Scott. This will all take time.
    Scott Summers: You're wrong about me. I'm no hero. I'm not cut out to be an X-Man.
    Charles Xavier: Tell you what, that's enough training for today. Go dry off and we'll take a little drive.
    Scott Summers: Where are we going?
    Charles Xavier: To meet a special friend of mine.
    Emma Frost: [To Cyclops at lakeshore bench] Shall we continue?
    Cyclops: Yeah. [Emma puts hand on Cyclops forehead initiating flashback of Charles and Scott at Jean's family house]
    Scott Summers: Him?
    Charles Xavier: No, her.
    John: [Comes down stairs] Charles.
    Charles Xavier: Good morning, John. Hello, Jean. I'd like you both to meet a student of mine, Scott Summers. Jean, how are you feeling?
    John: You saw what's going on outside. She's a mess.
    Charles Xavier: Can you tell me why?
    John: It's because of your old friend Erik. He came to visit her.
    Charles Xavier: What did he say?
    John: I don't know. She got scared and ran inside. She won't talk about it.
    Charles Xavier: You must understand this changes everything.
    John: What does he want?
    Charles Xavier: He wants her on his side. Erik goes by Magneto now and he's assembling an army of powerful mutants.
    John: Does that mean he'll come back for her?
    Charles Xavier: Most assuredly. And next time he won't ask first.
    John: He'll just take her.
    Charles Xavier: Jean won't let him.
    John: She may not be able to stop him.
    Charles Xavier: John... I need more time with her.
    Jean: My weekly visits aren't enough.
    Charles Xavier: I'd like Jean to come and stay at the institute.
    John: No, she's too young.
    Charles Xavier: But you can't protect her like I can.
    Jean: Dad, I'd like to go with them.
    [Second flashback of Blackbird X-Jet descending on city street to meet Magneto]
    Erik/Magneto: Just bring me the girl, Charles. We both know her place is with me.
    Charles Xavier: She's chosen a different path than the one you offer, Erik. It's an uninformed choice.
    Erik/Magneto: How can she ever reach her true potential if you insist on suppressing her powers?
    Charles Xavier: Because I see her as a person, not as a weapon.
    Erik/Magneto: You know how I abhor these confrontations, Charles.
    Charles Xavier: But you leave me no choice.
    Scott: Look, I want to move on with my life! I want to be an X-Men! But I can't! Jean is all I think about! And now my friends are getting hurt because of me!
    Emma: Let me help you.
    Scott: Forget it.
    Emma: What if I told you I could erase Jean from your memories?
    Scott: Completely?
    Emma: If that's what you want.
    Scott: Then what? I end up like Logan? Haunted by the things I can't remember?
    Emma: No. I wouldn't do that you. Scott if the choice is leaving us or letting go of Jean, then let me try.
    Scott: No. It can't be.
    Emma: I'm afraid it is, Scott. No one attacked the X-Men. It was Jean. She caused the explosion.

### Rover

    Prof. X: Jean was the casue!
    Scott: No! You can't blame her! We don't know what happened!
    Prof. X: No we don't. But I have seen that psychic fire before.
    Wolverine: You saw it before? Where?
    Prof. X: In the memories of Magneto's daughter Lorna, one of the few survivors.
    Prof X: Listen well. I've only begun to understand the true depth of Jean's power.

### "Shades of Grey" [1.23]

    Archlude: The disturbance was telepathic in nature.
    Sinister: Originating from where?
    Arclite: Upsite, where the M.R.D. were sent to apprehend a telekinetic.
    Sinister: Perhaps their target had both telepathy and telekinesis.
    Arclite: That is incredibly rare.
    Sinister: Yes. Yet it does bring one name to mind.
    Jean: You know who I am?
    Scott: What?
    Emma: It would seem the puzzle is solved. She never contacted you because she doesn't remember you.
    Sinister: I have to admit, like everyone else, I did believe Jean had perished. And then you came to be, so convinced she was alive, that I just had resume my search.
    Scott: Sinister, let us go! Now!! Don't touch her!
    Sinister: Not to worry. Acquiring genetic material is usually painless.
    [Jean unleashes her strong telekinetic abilities, being taken over by the Phoenix Force]
    Scott: Jean! JEAN! It's okay, Jean. It's over.
    Emma: We've waited a long time for this, Jean.
    Sebastian: Well done, Emma. The Phoenix finally belongs to the Inner Circle.

### "Foresight, Part 1" [1.24]

    Quicksilver: [Grabs book from her] Whatcha reading, Wanda?
    Wanda: Pietro?
    Quicksilver: The Cornerstone to Building a Successful Society. Sounds boring. [Wanda causes him to fall back and slide ahead, with her standing over him] Wanda, you can't go yanking a man's power out from under him like that.
    Wanda: What are you doing here, Pietro? You know how father will react if he finds you.
    Quicksilver: [Zooms behind her] Hey, it's all good. I was invited back.
    Wanda: I seriously doubt that.
    Quicksilver: It's seriously true. All it took was the delivery of a certain [does airquotes] "package."
    Wanda: What package?
    Quicksilver: [Takes Wanda to dungeon cell of Senator Robert Kelly] Signed, sealed and delivered.
    Senator Robert Kelly: Let me out of here!
    Wanda: [Grabs Robert's cell bars and gasps]You abducted Senator Kelly?
    Quicksilver: Hey, it's what the old man wanted.
    Senator Robert Kelly: You fools! I shut down the Sentinel program to prevent the war.
    Quicksilver: You're only pushing us back into it. Not us. You.
    [Wolverine throws Scott against the wall in rage]
    Wolverine: [Enraged] You got any idea what you've done!? She was our only link to finding Jean!!
    Scott: [Enraged] Which she couldn't do sitting in a cell!
    [Wolverine throws Scott down to the floor in rage]
    Wolverine: You got stars in your eyes, Summers! Or you'd see it too! She's involved!
    Scott: I believe in her, Logan.
    Wolverine: Yeah? Then where is she now?
    Emma: Jean. Jean. It's time for you to remember who you are. Lets wake up now, shall we?
    Jean: Scott? Scott?
    Emma: That's it. Let it all come back to you.
    Jean: Scott!!
    Emma: It's all right, Jean. Scott isn't here but he's fine. Everyone is fine.
    Jean: Where am I?
    Emma: You're safe. Just breathe slowly and relax. Now, do you remember who I am?
    Jean: Yes. Yes. You're the one who helped me. You rescued me from...from Angel.
    Emma: That's right. And now I want to help you again.
    Jean: Why? What's happening?
    Emma: Jean, you're in danger. And its not only your life that's threatened but the lives of everyone you love, including Scott's. Come with me and I'll explain.
    Emma: Since the day you were born, there's been a power growing within you. That power so wisely pushes against the barriers Charles Xavier placed when you were a child.
    Jean: How do you know about that?
    Emma: I know everything about it, Jean. It's called the Phoenix Force. And it's been afflicting telepaths since mutants first emerged. This Egyptian tablet is over two thousand years old, yet it could be telling your story. as you can see, the Phoenix was present even at this baby's birth. As she grew, it grew until finally it reached maturity and took her over. Fires, floods, even sifts in climate. Throughout history, these events seem to coincide with the emergence of the Phoenix.
    Jean: And...people die?
    Emma: Yes. Many.
    [Jean is horrified]
    Jean: This will happen again. With me, won't it?
    Emma: Unless I can stop it.
    Jean: Is that possible?
    Emma: If we can prevent the Force from igniting yes. And because psychic beings such as this need a host to survive, we believe it will perish without one.

### "Foresight, Part 2" [1.25]

    Emma: We were interrupted.
    Sebastian: By what?
    Emma: The psychic connection she shares with Scott Summers. She senses he's in trouble.
    Sebastian: Then have the girls' block it out so you can proceed.
    Emma: It's too strong. If he is in trouble I need to alleviate the problem.
    Selene: Or maybe you're as worried about Scott Summers as she is.
    Emma: Are questioning my loyalty, Selene?
    Selene: Yes, I am. The X-Men are of no further use. They should have been taken out as soon as cerebro was rebuilt.
    Emma: So now we're assassins? We're trying to save lives, not take them.
    Sebastian: Go if you must, Emma. The cuckoos are fully capable of getting Miss Grey to open the remaining doors.
    Emma: Oh, and what about the little firestorm waiting on the other side?
    Sebastian: I have faith they can contain it.
    Emma: Contain it? What are you talking about!? We're destroying it.
    Sebastian: Those plans have evolved.
    Emma: Sebastian, you can't control the Phoenix! No one can!
    Sebastian: Ah, but I believe it wants to be controlled, Emma. And through the centuries, it has been searching for a telepath capable of handing its immense power.
    Emma: You...you can't all agree with his. Lenient. Pierce?
    Selene: We do. And before you fell in love with the X-Men, you would have as well.
    Sebastian: We're confident fire telepaths can succeed where one would fail.
    Emma: You are all fools! If I'm not here to lead this, the Phoenix will consume those girls, just as it would've Jean! I implore, you don't do anything until I return!
    Sebastian: You have one hour.

### "Foresight, Part 3" [1.26]

    Selene: Pathetic. Your affection for this X-Men has ruined you, Emma.
    Emma: This has nothing to do with him and everything to do with the mistake you're about the make! The power you're about to unleash!
    Scott: You have to listen to her. We've seen the future.
    Selene: Listen to her? You have no idea who she is, do you?
    Emma: Selene, don't.
    Selene: The explosion that destroyed your mansion, that put your mentor in a coma, that took your precious Jean from you. It was all compliments of Emma Frost and her couscous. Emma assured us she could extract Jean after eliminating the treat of Xavier and his X-Men. She was wrong. Your girlfriend sensed the psychic attack and tried to save you all. Emma's miscalculation cost us the Phoenix. So she had to use the X-Men to find her again. That's why she took Xavier's body from the mansion and placed him on the shores of Genosha, to earn a place on your team by discovering him for you.
    Scott: Emma?
    Emma: Scott, I had no choice. The Phoenix Force must be stopped.
    Scott: You lied to me.
    Emma: No. Not everything was a lie.
    Selene: So you see, Emma can't be trusted. And if it were up to me...
    Sebastian: It isn't, Selene. Emma's impetuous actions aside. She will seek our foreignness once she realizes the truth. The Phoenix needs us as much as we need it.
    Emma: Sebastian, the Phoenix is trying to return to Jean! They can't control it!
    Sebastian: You're wrong. It's time to end this war. Girls, wipe out the Sentinels, destroy the X-Men, and burn Genosha to ground.
    Emma: You've doomed us!
    Emma: Scott! Scott, wake up. Please, Scott. Don't leave me.
    [Emma kisses Scott on the lips, but is thrown backwards and held by metal wires by Jean's telekinesis]
    Jean: You'll pay for what you've done!
    Scott: Jean, wait. We'll deal with her later. Right now, we have to stop the Phoenix.
    Emma: If she goes out there, nothing will keep it from returning to her.
    Jean: And if it does, will that stop it?
    Emma: Yes. For now.
    Scott: No! That's not an option!
    Jean: Scott, it chose me for a reason. I have to try.
    Emma: Jean can't do this alone. She'll need my help.
    Scott: You're not going anywhere near her.
    [Scott and Jean leave, causing Emma to hang her head in sadness]
    [Emma tries to free herself from the metal wires, but is unsuccessful, even after transforming into her diamond form]
    Emma: [Spots Wolverine] Logan!
    [Wolverine spots Emma]
    Emma: Logan, you have to cut me loose!
    [Wolverine hops down and advances on Emma]
    Wolverine: [Unsheathes two of his claws on either side of Emma's neck] You betrayed us.
    Emma: But now, I am trying to help you.
    Wolverine: [Unsheathes a third claw underneath Emma's neck] No. You've done enough. [Retracts his claws and starts to leave]
    Emma: Logan, please. Too much is at stake.
    [Wolverine stops walking]
    Emma: You have to trust me.
    [Wolverine turns to Emma, realizing that she needs him to cut her loose so that she can stop the Phoenix]
    Jean: You want me back?! Well, here I am!
    Jean: Scott! What are you doing!!? It'll kill you!
    Scott: I'm not losing you again!
    Emma: Get Jean out of here, Scott. I'm not sure how long I can contain it.
    Scott: What are you gonna do?
    Emma: Try... to release it.
    Wolverine: Summers, she knows what she's doing! Now let's go!
    Scott: Emma!!
    Emma: Scott, forgive me.
