"(GROWLING)" "Jean." "Jean!" "Jean, don't let it take you over!" "Fight it!" "(GROWLING)" "Professor X, she's no longer in control of herself ." "CHARLES:" "She's under mind control ." "She's not responding to my telepathic calls ." "It must be the work of Mastermind." "It's dangerous out there." "Jean's an Omega-level mutant." "Damn!" "If she goes supernova, we're all dead." "Damn!" "Jean!" "Wait, Cyclops!" "CYCLOPS:" "Jean!" "(SCREAMING)" "(GASPS)" "(SCREAMING)" "Jean, don't do this." "Cyclops." "Jean?" "Scott, it has to be done." "You have to kill me." "You know I could never do that!" "I can feel it taking over." "I'll end up killing you and others." "Don't let them control you!" "You can fight them!" "You can do it!" "I believe in you!" "I'm sorry, I can't." "Yes, you can!" "That's just Mastermind talking!" "Jean, I love you!" "You're the one controlling her mind!" "Jean, what are you doing?" "What's happening to her body?" "Damn!" "She's going to self -destruct!" "We need to leave!" "You have to fight it!" "Jean, stop!" "I love you, Scott." "Jean!" "(SOBBING)" "(YELLING)" "CHARLES:" "In the course of evolution, accidents can occur." "We who are born with the "X-Gene" have a gift" "But those gifts also led to our kind being ostracized by the rest of humanity ." "I created the Xavier Institut and hoped that it would give young mutants a place where they could be themselves." "A place to learn about their powers without fear of persecution." "In order to make the world a better place for mutants and humans alike." "Ateam of elite mutants ." "The X-Men." "But look at us now." "It's been nearly a year since they tried to destroy us." "Nearly a year since they almost succeeded." "An intense fight broke out between us and the Inner Circl a group of outlaw mutants ." "That day, we lost one of our best and brightest" "A member of our family ." "Jean Grey." "(CHIL DREN SOBBING)" "What is it, children?" "Now, come here, everyone." "You're afraid, I understand." "But please, don't worry." "As long as you're here, the teachers and I will do everything to protect you." "(SOBBING CONTINUES)" "That goes for you too." "You are..." "Wait!" "I can't read your thoughts." "Wait, who are you?" "(GASPS)" "The same dream." "Again and again." "(PANTING)" "Who's there?" "Who is it?" "(SCREAMING)" "CHARLES:" "As you know, the Institute is inactive for the time being." "When did this happen?" "Right, I see." "In that case, we'll be glad to help you as much as we can." "Goodbye." "(GUNS FIR ING)" "Pirates!" "A gang of pirates!" "We're all gonna die." "That's how these things always end!" "STORM:" "Everyone, please, step back." "MAN:" "And you are?" "(YELLING INDISTINCTLY)" "They're gone now." "That was amazing!" "MAN:" "Thank you so much." "You're one of those X-Men, aren't you?" "Maybe." "(BEEPING)" "Excuse me." "(BEEPING)" "BEAST:" "According to my research, it is evidently possible to enhance the intelligence level of this creature to that of a human." "This is a decapodiform cephalopod, of the Mollusca family ." "In short, a squid." "(ALL LAUGHING)" "We can communicate with him using this waterproof wireless microphone." "Is he serious?" "I have to see this." "(BEEPING)" "I'm afraid I must leave early ." "Mr. Devilfish will finish my lecture for me." "That squid's gonna finish his lecture?" "(ALL LAUGHING)" "Calm down, everyone." "Now, where were we?" "Yes, the neurological aspects of cognitive intelligence." "Any questions?" "WOLVERINE:" "Come on!" "WOMAN:" "Sir, do you have any more metal objects?" "Listen, you're not gonna find anything on me!" "Trust me." "But the machine is detecting metal" "(GROANS) I can't take these off." "(SHRIEKS)" "Okay, now you've seen them." "Are we good?" "Well , I .." "(BEEPING)" "Change of plans." "Looks like I'm headed to New York." "Hello, Charles !" "Welcome home, Ororo." "I've missed you." "You know, some of us have things to do." "I had to cancel my vacation." "So how's it going, Charles ?" "Still bald , I see." "Logan, welcome." "I can't tell you how happy I was to get your call ." "Between faculty meetings and dining hall food, being a professor can get rather dull ." "It's good to have you all back again." "Where's Cyclops?" "It would seem he's not quite ready to return to us yet." "Last week, a teenage girl named Hisako Ichiki, who lives in northern Japan, disappeared on her way home from school" "Unable to find any clues, her parents contacted me for help ." "If they called you, Charles , then does that mean the girl is..." "One of us, yes." "Though she only exhibited her powers once, when she was very young." "Once?" "That's unusual" "Her father is an old friend of mine." "While the X-Gene runs in her family , neither her father nor her mother has it." "They fear that her disappearance might have something to do with them." "Probably a runaway." "Why don't we just let the cops handle it?" "The problem is, they began investigating, but inexplicable accidents injured many of them." "So that's why no progress has been made." "The obvious inference being that someone doesn't want this girl found." "Someone who's hunting mutants?" "Recently , there have been many incidents involving mutants in northern Japan." "But even Cerebro could not detect any mutant activity there." "(SCOFFS) Big deal Your brilliant gizmo's probably just got a worn out doohickey or something." "And you aren't getting any younger yourself , Charlle." "Logan!" "Just kidding." "Take it easy." "BEAST:" "Professor," "Cerebro might have a flaw." "I'll look into it." "Anyways, I believe there could be a bigger problem behind her disappearance." "So I want the X-Men to go to Japan and find this girl I agree that something has to be done, Charles ." "But what about Scott?" "We're not the X-Men without Cyclops." "Unbellevable." "Don't tell me you've been hanging out here this whole time." "Where do you wash yourself ?" "There's nothing wrong with Cerebro." "All mutant activity shows up clearly ." "Only Tohoku comes up blank." "I knew it wasn't broken." "Perhaps something or someone is cloaking the area, preventing it from being scanned." "Whatever it is, it may be connected with Hisako's disappearance." "Well , we'll find out soon enough once we get to Japan." "By the way, was it wise to send Logan to bring back Cyclops?" "That's why I sent Ororo along with him." "CYCLOPS:" "I can't fight anymore." "You need a reason to fight, and I've lost mine." "STORM:" "No, Scott." "This is not a fight." "We'll just find this mutant girl and rescue her." "And if some bad guys try to stop us, we're gonna have to fight them." "Wolverine!" "Come on." "Listen to him, will you?" "Full of self -pity." "He'd be useless to us anyway." "He acts like he owns her." "As if Jean meant nothing to the rest of us!" "Jean would die all over again if she saw the way you're acting." "(GRUNTS)" "Wolverine!" "That's not funny!" "What did I do?" "Hit a nerve?" "You wanna feel real pain?" "Say her name again." "Bring it on." "STORM:" "That's enough!" "Why do you have to pretend that you don't care?" "Is it that hard to admit that you've been worried about him, too?" "Scott, we have to find her." "She's out there." "There are still people that need you." "The X-Men need you." "You know it's what Jean would have wanted." "Well , you know where we'll be." "JEAN:" "So beautiful So far away." "They shine down on every living thing on Earth." "On humans, and on mutants." "Scott, the X-Men are the light shining down on all mutants." "I want to be the light that shines down on all children, mutants and humans." "(SNIFFING)" "What is it?" "I'd recognize that smell anywhere." "Well , well , if it isn't Summers," "the guy who brought shoulder pads and tights back in fashion." "We're on a mission, Wolverine." "Call me Cyclops." "(CHUCKLES)" "The X-Men have received a call for help ." "There's a young girl in Japan who desperately needs us." "Welcome back, Cyclops." "It's been a year since you've driven this." "Are you sure you're okay?" "At least I do a better job than the way you handle your bike." "NARRATOR:" "With Cyclops back on board, the X-Men go to Tohoku, a region of Japan." "Their investigation uncovers that Hisako is not the only mutant who has disappeared." "A highly scientific group of mutant hunters, the U-Men, stand in their way." "As the X-Men infiItrat their hide-out they uncover a horrifying secret" "Next time on X-Men.:" "U-Men."
