You know, I'’ve got to say it's great to finally meet you Rick.

Getting all those new mutants in an occurrence made you quite the legend.

Well, I'’ve been lucky.What?

Getting that shape shifter to pass the GSA block A in Acrom,

think that took a little bit more than luck.

Well, hopefully we can keep these two under their radar.

Yeah. What'’s the story?

They seem okay.

Something'’s a little off, if you know what I mean.Hmm.

What about the mutancy?

Hey Todd.Oh.

Super speed.Yeah.

It'’s going to come in handy.Yeah.

He'’s a show off.Oh.

My wife Jerri.Oh. Hi.

Of course you'’ve got plenty to show off there yourself big guy.

She'’s got X-ray vision.Oh, hey.

Ahhh. Brennan. Ahhh.

Rick.Oh, ahhh, ahhh.

Stay back.

Are you okay?

Can'’t stop. Ahh, ahhh.

Uhh, ehh, oh, oh.

Oh, ahhh, ahh.

Adam, we'’ve got a problem.

[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

That should contain his powers.

Even while his vital signs are weakening.

I thought you had him stabilized.I'’ve done the best I can.

But I'’ll be honest with you.

He'’s barely holding on.

He'’s not going to die, is he?I don'’t know.

What I know for sure is he'’s completely lost control of his new hands abilities.

I'’ll have to run a battery of tests to help me figure out what'’s causing this.

Once you'’ve got that figured out, you'’ll be able to treat him, right?

Well, diagnosis is the first step.

And what if we figure out whatever he has is contagious?

Well, it might just be the tip of the iceburg.

MARLOWE: A new mutant was brought in this morning

It'’s the second case in two days, we'’ve discovered.

And that'’s the operative word here, isn'’t it, Mr Marlowe?Sir.

"Discovered".

There'’s no telling how many of these aberrant loose cannons are reeking havoc out there.

Now this loose cannon turned the entire city'’s aquarium into one ice block.

Killed all the fish inside.Ecology has never been a particular interest of mine.

Well, along with the diver who was feeding them.

What about the other one?

Her new mutant power of suggestion,

caused a thirty two car pile up on the Trans island highway.

Any human fatalities there?

Two Sir.That'’s tragic.

But credible excuse to initiate a clamp down.

What have your interrogations revealed?

Since being apprehended, they'’ve fallen extremely ill.

High fevers, deteriorating vital signs.

And you still have no idea what'’s causing this?No.

But medical staff are running batteries of tests and... we just need more time.

Well, you don'’t have more time.

Solving this problem is priority one.

I want all squads on full alert, to locate and incarcerate these out of control new mutants.

Yes, Sir.

Brennan checked in. Asked me for a progress report.

All right, anyway tell him, he and the wildes should avoid using their powers.

Using them accelerates the spread of the infection.

I think he'’s more concerned about how long he'’s gonna have to stay cooped up with them.

Well, you tell him that he'’s not to leave the safe house under any circumstances.

How come?Cause any new mutants exposed,

to this thing needs to remain quarantined.

But I thought you said there'’s a good chance Rick didn'’t enter the infectious

stage until after he left the safe house.Yeah.

But until we are certain of that isolation is the only way to keep this thing from spreading.

Got any idea what we are dealing with?Yeah.

Off. Cladosporium.

Here. There it is.

It'’s a simple common airborne spore.

Completely harmless to most human beings,

but in the case of a rare genetic apparition which occurs in less than one percent

of all new mutants.

Exposure to this spore causes uncontrollable mutation.

Eventually death.

Less than one percent?

Well, not to sound heartless, but I mean, if we are only talking

less than one percent then what'’s the big deal?

It'’s what happens after the exposure that'’s a big deal.

Once the person shows symptoms,

they become highly infectious and the disease is passed on.

New mutant to new mutant.

Sorry guys, we'’ve got a little setback here.Setback?

What kind of setback?

Ha! We are all under quarantine.

Quarantine? Huh? for how long?

Till they figure out what infected Rick.

Wait a minute. You mean we'’ve been exposed to something?

We could get sick?Don'’t worry.

I'’m sure we'll all be fine. Just a precaution.

So we'’re only gonna be delayed a little while, right?

I think I'’ve got it. It starts in the throat, right?

Come one, Jerr, you never get sick.

So, eh, what are we looking at here?

An hour or two? Huh?

Can'’t answer that.

Eh, until we do figure out what we'’re dealing with, I don'’t think we should...

Stop using our mutant abilities.

It could trigger an episode.Fine.

Todd. Please.

Right. Right.

[COUGHS] It'’s in my throat.

No doubt about it.

[SIGHS] It'’s going to be a long day.

So what'’s this fire we'’re investigating?Alice Robins.

She has the power to throw off thermal energy.I remember.

Who slipped into the under ground last year.

That'’s right. Sounds like she's becoming the latest victim of this infection.

Power has been completely out of control.

You would'’ve thought in a situation like this the police and fire department

would be all over the place.They would'’ve been but they got called off

by a higher authority. Jesse told me.

Better activate your hazmat suit.

Good.Howcome you'’re not wearing one?

Well, not being a new mutant, I'’m immune.

So, I'’m the only one who gets to make a hazmat fashion statement?

That'’s right but you just wait

it will be the rage of the Spring collection.I'’m sure.

It'’s locked. It's hot.

Alice.

Alice.

You think you can take this down?I guess so.

What if you are afraid of catching something? Don'’t be, the suit will protect you.

No, it'’s not that. It'’s, um...

[SIGHS]

You know how I am around fire?

So, the fear of fire is perfectly natural for a feral.

You and I both know there is only one way for you to get over it.

You better stand over there, then.

God, she'’s, she's burning up. I mean literally.

Adam.Is there anything we can do?

Too late. Just go.

How long till the next flare up?

Not long, but I'’m afraid the next one might kill her.

So, looks like the news is out.

Well, knowing now who called off the authorities.

[GRUNTS]

Back off or he'’s dead.

Like I give a damn.

Well, working for Eckhart has brought out your sensitive side,

See now, that'’s not fair.

I was bitter long before I took this job.

Ah, well, we'’ll deal with your psyche some other time.

Miss Robbins here is about to reach her ignition point.

There'’s not a lot we can do.

I suppose that would mean a swift death for her.

Yeah and for anyone else in the vicinity.

Don'’t stay on my account.

[GROANS]

Alice, what can I do?

Just go. Please. Just go.

We got to get out of here.

Marlowe.

Tell me...

[GASPING]

Adam!Stay down.
