[Narrator] Previously on X-Men...
The Leader has promised that you mutants will be released
once this dam is built.
But if you try to escape, you will never leave Genosha.
This mutant apprehended while attempting to escape.
[Jubilee] Storm!
We'll have our own power grid
once the dam is finished.
Then Mastermold's children
will be able to track down mutants
anywhere on the planet.
[Leader] I understand there was a revolt by the slaves.
[Trask] We allowed it to happen
to break their spirit.
You should have seen their faces
when I showed them who had betrayed them.
He calls himself Gambit.
[groans]
Quickly, cherie!
I knew you would rescue us.
Imminent danger.
I summon the full power of the storm!
[Cyclops] Come in, Professor.
I'm getting a visual on the...
The school!
[Rogue] It can't be!
There's still no answer. That's odd.
Maybe the Prof's taking a snooze.
You think you can land this tub by yourself?
Touchdown in two minutes.
I'm getting a visual on the...
the school!
It can't be!
What if the Professor's in there?
We're gonna find out.
[Storm] Begin searching the ruins, but take care.
Professor Xavier may be among them.
People don't know we live here.
Who'd do this to a school?
Come on, Professor. Stop playing around.
Tell us you're all right.
Wind, aid my hands!
[Cyclops on radio] Storm, any sign of the Professor?
None.
No damage to the hangar area.
We're on our way to the War Room.
[Jean] Professor, wherever you are,
you must answer me now.
Please.
There's no response.
That means he's gone
or unconscious
or...
[Cyclops on radio] Jean? Jean!
Uh... Yes, Cyclops?
Have everyone come down to the War Room.
We've found something.
Cerebro has a message from the Professor. Jubilee.
[beeps]
Greetings, X-Men.
I'm taking a journey
whose results may change our lives forever.
I cannot tell you anything more now. Farewell.
Well, we've done a fine job looking after the school.
This message was left before the mansion was destroyed.
I just hope the Professor made it out in time.
Find any clues?
[Wolverine] Maybe.
Don't take off. We have to plan our next move.
Do whatever you want, pal.
Something tells me the Professor wants to be found
while he's still breathing.
The Professor wants us to work as a team.
Where's Wolverine going?
His own way, like he always does.
I just hope his keen senses
tell him not to take this thing on alone.
Whoa! Bigfoot time.
Are you sure we wanna find this guy?
Storm, take Rogue and Jubilee.
Track Wolverine down and stay close to him.
I don't care what he says, he's gonna need you.
We shall leave at once.
Why must Wolverine always rush off in this way?
Come on, Storm. It's 'cause he's worried
about the Professor, that's all.
It's more like he wants to kick some butt.
Whatever the reason,
Professor Xavier's first rule is to work as a team.
Look, there's his Jeep.
[breaks screech]
We shall find Wolverine more quickly if we separate.
Remember to keep in touch at all times.
I hope I find him first.
Me and Wolverine can take on anything.
[workers grumbling]
What's eating the hard hats?
Looks like they got replaced by some foreign guy.
They think he's a mutant.
Is he, like, real big?
Hey, Mike. You better make sure
Super Russki doesn't malfunction.
[laughter]
[energy buzzes]
That's gotta be him.
Huh?
[screams]
What the--
[Russian accent] Your building is crushed.
Any more today?
Great job. What'd you say your name was again?
I am Colossus, from Russia.
His name is mutant scab, and that's our money!
That's gotta be the guy that totaled the mansion.
[angry grunts]
Let's get him.
Huh?
Not so fast, little Jubilee.
Let's see how he handles these guys.
Go back to Russia, scab.
Leave him alone. He got the job done.
You guys can clean up.
We're not working for any mutant lover.
What's wrong? Was my job no good?
No, no. They wanted to crush... Knock over the building.
[Colossus] Comrades, let us all work together.
[workers shouting]
Look out!
Did you see that?
Didn't even phase him.
Let me go!
Now you run away. What I have done wrong?
[Wolverine] The first thing was
crushing the Professor's mansion.
Oh!
Guy's got a great arm.
You Americans are all crazy.
Leave him alone!
[screams]
Put me down, you big ox!
Why do you fight Colossus, little one?
Just let me get a good shot at you.
You must stop this, little one!
[grunts in anger]
What do you want? I do not know of any mansion.
It is a mistake.
[sniffs]
You're right, Ivan.
Whoa!
What is it with these Americans?
They are very strange people.
Wolverine.
Come on. He's getting away!
He's not the guy.
Get a clue.
You think he's not the guy just 'cause he said so?
No, 'cause I said so.
He ain't what I smelled at the mansion,
and he could've wasted us both just now, but he didn't.
[cell phone rings]
[Rogue] Jubilee? If you got a hold of Wolverine,
kindly invite him to join us at the First National Bank.
Police radio says it's being robbed by somebody big.
[police siren wailing]
Glad you all decided to join the party.
So who busted the piggy bank?
The police have captured him.
[Colossus] I was in the bank to open an account.
I tried to stop the robber.
This guy's always in the wrong place at the wrong time.
He is not the one?
Now that is a shame,
locking up a big, good-looking hunk-o-mutant like that.
[police siren wailing]
He said he confronted the bank robber.
Someone should talk to him.
Twist my arm, Storm.
Come on. Let's play welcome wagon
to tall, dark and Russian.
[car engine starts]
[Wolverine sniffs]
[Wolverine] Same scent that was at the mansion.
We're close, Jubilee.
All right! I think.
Let's go.
Now remember, Rogue, no scenes.
No scenes, sugar. Just a little down-home charm.
You look a little on the weary side, honey.
Been a long shift?
It was till you showed up.
Ooh, it's a tad chilly in here, don't you think?
Like they say, cold hands...
[screams]
[Rogue] Out cold. [chuckles]
Your turn.
[Colossus] I guess the police think I must be the thief.
[Beast speaking Russian]
There he is.
Dang! Wrong key.
Hightail it, handsome. We don't have much time.
What? Who are you?
[Beast] Angels of mercy, my friend,
known to those who love them as Rogue and Storm.
[both] Beast!
[Beast] Eagerly awaiting my day in court.
By the way, our over-sized Slavic friend
is named Colossus.
He swears he is innocent of the crime for which he stands accused.
We believe him.
We will need him to help us find the real criminal.
That's right. Care to join the jail break, Beast?
[alarm sounds]
Thanks, no. But come back during regular visiting hours,
and we'll catch up on gossip.
And tell Jean thanks for the delicious cookies.
Come on, big and pretty. Let's make tracks.
I cannot. It is not permitted.
[Beast speaking Russian]
Trust my friends. They will prove your innocence.
Agreed, Beast.
[Colossus speaking Russian]
[Storm] Rogue, our way is blocked.
Give the boys some air, Storm.
[guards cry]
Dear, dear, no back door.
Now there's a back door.
I just love it when he does that.
Hurry, Rogue, they are coming.
Arctic winds, make ice!
[guards exclaiming]
[alarm ringing]
[people screaming]
[sighs]
The cool, refreshing smell of mint.
[laughing]
[Wolverine] Storm? Rogue? What's taking you so long?
The guy's taking out another bank.
[Rogue] Be there quick as a whip, hon.
He's in there, isn't he?
So what's taking this big shot so long?
Who's that?
The Juggernaut.
Stop or we'll shoot.
Ooh, I'm scared. I better run.
[Juggernaut laughing]
Open fire!
Cease fire!
Sticks and stones will break my bones,
but tanks will never hurt me.
Now get out of my way.
You're violating my personal space.
[Policeman] What the...
[laughing]
[grunting]
I'm starting to get the idea.
You wanted to fight the guy. Come on.
[whispers] Watch.
My hand is quicker than his eye.
The rest is in the alley.
Sorry, I can't explain. Gotta run.
Like they say, a fool and his money are soon parted.
[grunts angrily]
So where's Xavier?
[Juggernaut laughing]
[growling]
I knocked on his door, but I don't think he was home.
[groaning]
So I decided to do a little banking
to get his attention.
What's this?
The 4th of July?
No one told me.
Leave him alone!
[weakly] Jubilee, don't.
[laughing]
What's she gonna do, hit me with her diaper?
I'll show you, you overgrown trash can!
Somebody's getting too big for her britches.
Come out, come out,
wherever you are. What's going on? [screams]
[laughs]
You shouldn't have been such a pest, girlie.
No!
[Rogue] Picking on kids, big boy?
How thoughtful. The Professor sent me more mutants to mangle.
You! You robbed the bank and left me to get the blame.
How could you do this to a fellow mutant?
I'm not a mutant, tin-head. My powers are magical,
and none of you mutant wimps can handle them.
We will see.
Come on.
[grunts]
I always crush my cans before I throw them away.
"Tank" you!
Hmm, I wonder if he's recyclable.
Now what?
Storm.
Didn't my worthless brother tell you it's no use?
You killed him.
Nothing we know of can kill him.
I'm trying to attack his mind, but I can't get through.
His helmet protects his mind from probes.
I've got an idea.
It'll take all of us working together for a change,
but it just might work.
[Juggernaut] Quit hiding, you chickens.
What's this, baby cuddles again?
Give me more. That tickles.
Come on, you know you can't hurt me.
Give it a rest.
Who turned out the lights?
[Rogue grunting]
What is this, tag team?
Whoa!
Nighty-night, big boy.
I feel a tingle.
Is this supposed to hurt?
Just wait. You'll feel it soon enough.
And I think Little Miss Cornpone
is getting a taste of what it's like
to try to absorb my powers.
Charles, you had it easy. You were the good one!
But now I'm the strongest,
and I will destroy you and your pathetic X-Men!
[screaming]
[Storm] Rogue!
I have you.
[Rogue screams] Rogue, let it go! Let it go!
[groaning]
I gotta watch those late night parties.
[Jean] Juggernaut, mine is the only voice you hear.
[screams]
Get away! Stop it! I can't stand it!
Stop it.
[Jean groans] [Cyclops] Jean.
Agony. Evil thoughts. They love my brother, not me.
They love my brother. Must destroy.
Must... [screaming]
What?
You American girls, strange girls.
What are you staring at, kid? Where the heck am I?
Jean, please tell me you're all right.
As well as can be expected.
[sighs]
What did you do to the Juggernaut?
[Jean] I gave him a hypnotic suggestion.
He won't remember who he is or what he was doing.
[Jubilee] Totally excellent!
The only problem is that we don't know
when it will wear off.
[Wolverine] We'll be waiting when it does.
Maybe there's something
to that wimpy "teamwork" garbage of yours after all.
Why don't you hang out around here for a while?
The Professor ain't here to make it official,
but take it from me, you're always welcome.
It is a great honor, but I cannot do this now.
I must first find my sister and maybe see more of America.
After I fix your house.
I never realized how much this dump meant to me
till somebody wiped it out.
Yeah, it's the first place that ever really felt like home.
I know the Professor'd like to hear you say that.
[Jubilee] Don't worry, Wolverine. We'll find him.
