MORGAN: Kelly.

Come on, I thought we were friends.

KELLY: Go to hell.

And here'’s a preview.

You know you haven'’t recharged enough to do that again.

BRENNAN: Hey!

Now, that'’s a big mistake.

Didn'’t your mother ever tell you to wear rubbers?

[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

ADAM: You said, they were all new mutants?

Yeah. The woman in charge, she was a telekinetic.

And the other one was a Feral and he was incredible.

Yeah, it was nothing we couldn'’t handle, though. Come on.

And then Brennan turns into rocket boy.

Yeah, but you said the woman in charge was a telekinetic. Maybe it was her.

No, no, no. I thought about that it wasn'’t her that made it happen.

It was jet propelled. I mean how does that happen.

More importantly we let those bastards get away with grabbing her.

Ah, sometimes discretion is a better part of valor.

When did you ever know Brennan to be discreet.

Well, there is that.

Guys, you know I'’m going through something totally weird here

and you'’re making fun of me?

Look, if Eckhart'’s fielding squads of new mutant GS Agents, things could get ugly and fast.

I don'’t think we need to make that leap from one run in.

I still think we ought to be prepared for anything.

Absolutely.

Hey, hey, where you going? Come here.

Adam, you know, I'’m really not in the mood for a tune-up right now.

Come on, you big baby.

Can we just do this later?

SHALIMAR: [LAUGHS HEARTILY] I will hold your hand.

[WHIRRING]

[ENTHRALLING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Hey.Hey.

So, I heard about what happened with Brennan. Is he sick or something?

Uh, no. I wouldn'’t exactly call him sick, it'’s...

[SIGHS] Well, I don'’t know.

Let'’s just say that my research is preliminary and leave it at that.

Which means you know something and you'’re not telling.

Look, I need to know if you experience any unusual manifestations

of your gifts right away.

Okay. Now, you'’re scaring me.

I mean, I finally just get comfortable with one kind of weirdness

and now, you'’re telling me that there'’s more.

No. Not necessarily.

Well, what is that suppose to mean?

Well, it means that Brennan'’s power burst might be a completely isolated incident

or could be the first indication of a major shift for all of you all.

Well, thanks for narrowing it down for me.

Genomex up in the frontiers of genetic science.

Right now we'’re lost in the middle of nowhere without a compass.

Yeah. Well, I guess I'’m just a little worried about the immunity challenge.

[SINISTER INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Okay. All the usual instructions.

Stay off the main arteries, obey the posted speed limits and, uh... Oh!

Check in with the secured web so when you get to your destinations, okay?

Good luck.

Am I late?

Depends, you could be early.

Here you go.

JESSE: What are you looking for?

I had heard a number of us are going into the underground.

And I was interested in offering an alternative.

I have all units, security officers and GS Agents on full alert.

You'’ll have to do better than that.

The man who escaped is Gabriel Ashlocke.

Patient Zero.

First child of Genomex.

How does that impact on our manhunt?

Mr. Ashlocke'’s new mutant abilities were in a constant state of flux from birth.

That'’s why he was parted for his own good and the rest of the world.

Miss Fortier.

Might be a good idea to warn our field agents to be aware of the potential risks

in this capture.

I have my A squad prepared for any eventuality, sir.

MASON: Not likely.

Gabriel Ashlocke'’s New Mutant gifts are off the meter.

It is imperative, that you bring him into custody immediately.

I promise you, sir, he will be back at Genomex before you know it.

JESSE: Hey! Hope I didn'’t interrupt you?

No. I'’m just been trying to relax for the past hour.

Good, '’cause the weirdest thing just happened at the safe house.

[SIGHS] I just think if I'’d have had a couple more minutes I might have been able to relax.

Ooh, I'’m sorry. I just really thought I should tell somebody about this.
