Previously on Wolverine and the X-Men.

Jean?

Jean is a level-5 mutant. Why can't Cerebro find her?

Perhaps there's nothing to find.

She's out there. I know it.

Then go look for her. On your own,

because you're either one of the team or you're gone.

Now which is it?

I'll stay.

Cyclops, you all right?

Yeah, I think so.

Cyclops, what are you waiting for? Blast his helmet off!

- Look out. - Help me, Scott.

Jean?

Wake up, Scott.

There you are. You had me worried.

Jean!

Oh.

I'm sorry. I thought you were...

I'm a telepath, Scott. I know.

It's all right.

I saw Jean last night. She was...

- No, Scott, she wasn't. - I'm telling you, I saw her.

In your mind. You imagined her.

I'd have known if she was there.

How many people got hurt?

You and Wolverine took the worst of it, but he's fine now.

- And Juggernaut? - He got away.

I know what you're thinking. You can't blame yourself.

Yeah, I can.

I'm no good for this team.

Scott, where are you going?

I don't know. Just away from here.

- You can't abandon us. We need you. - You're all better off.

- I know this isn't what you want, Scott. - No, it isn't. You're right, okay?

Look, I want to move on with my life. I want to be an X-Man, but I can't.

Jean is all I think about.

And now my friends are getting hurt because of me.

- Let me help you. - Forget it.

What if I told you I could erase Jean from your memories?

- Completely? - If that's what you want.

Then what?

I end up like Logan, haunted by the things I can't remember?

No, I wouldn't do that to you.

Scott, if the choice is leaving us or letting go of Jean,

then let me try.

Just lean back and close your eyes.

We're going to take this slowly.

Just listen to the ocean,

the waves, the breeze.

That's right.

Clear your mind.

I want you to lead me, Scott.

Take me to Jean.

Take me back to the beginning.

Mom. Dad!

Shh. It's okay, son. You're fine.

- Where am I? - You're in a hospital.

I'm Dr. Brooks. I've been...

I want to see my parents. Please, where are they?

Scott, you need to calm down, okay?

I'll explain everything. Now tell me the last thing you remember.

My family, we were getting on a plane.

We were in Alaska and...

I don't remember what happened.

You were in an accident, a plane crash.

Where are my parents? Where's Alex?

Your brother is fine. He's okay.

But only you and he made it.

Where is he? I want my brother.

Don't worry. He's safe.

He's living with a very nice family.

- But he wouldn't leave me. He wouldn't. - I'm afraid he had no choice, Scott.

Why?

You've been asleep for a long time.

- We thought we'd lost you, and... - How long?

Two years.

Stop. Stop. What's any of that got to do with Jean?

I don't know, Scott. You're the one taking me there.

It makes no sense.

Maybe not yet, but for some reason you've connected those memories to her.

Listen, we can stop right now, Scott.

Nothing's been removed. We're just looking around, that's all.

No. I'm sorry.

Please go on.

All right.

Tough guy, huh, Summers?

- You trying to start something? - Just leave me alone, guys.

What? You started it.

What's the matter? Can't back it up?

Do something about it, punk. Come on, man, let's see it.

I said leave me alone!

Oh, man. Oh, man!

What are you? Are you some kind of monster?

No. No, I'm not. Wait! Help me!

Somebody help me!

- Hello, Scott. - Who's there?

My name is Charles Xavier.

I understand you're frightened, but all is not lost.

This is the first day of a very important journey in your life.

Scott, I know what you're going through.

No, you don't.

I'm a monster.

If you are,

then so am I.

At one time my telepathy was uncontrollable.

I heard everyone's thoughts.

I couldn't shut them out, couldn't think.

I was losing my mind.

What changed?

I learned that my abilities could be controlled,

as can yours.

Don't!

Just keep your eyes closed, son.

- Now look at me. - No, I can't.

It's all right, I promise.

Just open your eyes.

Now, Scott,

I'd like to take you away from here

to a place where you can see how truly special you are.

I don't know why you even brought me here.

You're too hard on yourself, Scott.

This will all take time.

You're wrong about me. I'm no hero.

I'm not cut out to be an X-Man.

Tell you what, that's enough training for today.

Go dry off and we'll take a little drive.

- Where are we going? - To meet a special friend of mine.

- Whoa. - Indeed.

Shall we continue?

Yeah.

Him?

No, her.

Charles.

Good morning, John.

Hello, Jean.

I'd like you both to meet a student of mine, Scott Summers.

Jean, how are you feeling?

You saw what's going on outside. She's a mess.

Can you tell me why?

It's because of your old friend Erik.

He came to visit her.

- What did he say? - I don't know.

She got scared and ran inside. She won't talk about it.

You must understand this changes everything.

- What does he want? - He wants her on his side.

Erik goes by Magneto now

and he's assembling an army of powerful mutants.

Does that mean he'll come back for her?

Most assuredly.

And next time he won't ask first.

He'll just take her.

Jean won't let him.

She may not be able to stop him.

John...

I need more time with her. My weekly visits aren't enough.

I'd like Jean to come and stay at the institute.

No, she's too young.

But you can't protect her like I can.

Dad, I'd like to go with them.

Just bring me the girl, Charles.

We both know her place is with me.

She's chosen a different path than the one you offer, Erik.

It's an uninformed choice.

How can she ever reach her true potential if you insist on suppressing her powers?

Because I see her as a person, not as a weapon.

You know how I abhor these confrontations, Charles.

But you leave me no choice.

Erik, please.

Scott!

Jean, no!

You can end this, Jean.

Come with me and I'll spare your friends.

Open your eyes, Scott.

No.

It's okay. I can help you.

Just trust me.

- How did you... - Now look at him.

Stare right at Magneto.

We'll do this together.

Charles, she's more powerful than I ever realized.

And fortunately for you, I have taught her to suppress her abilities,

or we wouldn't be having this conversation.

With a mutant like her we can change the world.

Which is why I will never let you take her.

Oh, dear friend, never say never.

- Here. - Thanks.

All of the hardships you suffered, none of them mattered anymore.

Jean took all the pain away.

But something went wrong.

What happened?

Wolverine.

Hmm.

Who's the redhead?

The telepath I told you about.

You'll soon meet her along with the others.

Looking forward to it.

In the meantime, this is Scott Summers.

Nice to meet you. Park that in the garage for me, okay, sport?

I hear you read minds.

I was wondering...

I got a little memory problem, thought maybe you could help.

We both know the professor will be working with you on that.

Yeah, but why have a bald old man in my head when I can have you?

And there's the problem, you can't have me.

If you ever change your mind...

She won't.

Ah, you must be the jealous boyfriend.

Why don't you get back on your bike and ride out of here?

Sorry, bub.

I'm here to stay.

Pretty girl. She can definitely do better.

She found him intriguing.

A dangerous man with a mysterious past, and her with the tools to help him.

She was nice to the guy. He got the wrong idea.

So you finally confronted him about it.

You might say that.

Come on, get up.

Forget it, Summers.

I ain't fighting you over a girl.

Stop it. Stop it!

- What is wrong with you? - You're taking his side?

- You don't even know him. He's an animal. - No, you are.

Do you want to know why he wouldn't fight you, huh?

Because I made him promise not to.

Come on, Jean. How many times do I have to say I'm sorry?

Logan's the one you should be apologizing to.

Yeah, I know.

Then you'd better hurry. He's leaving.

- Charles. - Professor?

Jean, what's wrong?

Scott.

Just... Just give me a second.

I know that wasn't easy,

but I should be able to remove the memories now.

No, wait. It's the explosion.

I need to see it again. We missed something.

- What? - I don't know. It went by too fast.

All right, we'll try it again.

I'll slow things down.

Jean, what's wrong?

No. It can't be.

I'm afraid it is, Scott. No one attacked the X-Men.

It was Jean.

She caused the explosion.
