1. Previously on X-Men.
Copy !req
2. Dr. Adler claims his process
can reverse genetic mutations
Copy !req
3. within each cell of the body.
Copy !req
4. What?
Copy !req
5. Some mutants might welcome
Copy !req
6. the chance to become normal.
Copy !req
7. Yeah? Who?
Copy !req
8. I hear you can change people,
Doctor.
Copy !req
9. Change them, so they won't be
mutants anymore.
Copy !req
10. I don't wanna live my whole life
Copy !req
11. without knowing what it's like
to touch another human being.
Copy !req
12. In the mood for a hot date?
Copy !req
13. In a bull's-eye.
Copy !req
14. She has great powers.
Copy !req
15. You will use the machine
to make her my slave.
Copy !req
16. So your machine
doesn't cure mutants.
Copy !req
17. It turns them
into slaves of Apocalypse.
Copy !req
18. I'm looking for Gottfried Adler.
Copy !req
19. Of course, you are, old darling.
Copy !req
20. Don't call me darling.
Copy !req
21. I know more of this world
than you have even dreamed.
Copy !req
22. That is why I must destroy it.
Copy !req
23. A new way of life is beginning
Copy !req
24. for mutant-kind,
Mr. Worthington.
Copy !req
25. Free of the pain
caused by your mutantcy.
Copy !req
26. I can't thank you enough,
Dr. Adler.
Copy !req
27. Your cure will give me
what I've always wanted,
Copy !req
28. the chance to be
an ordinary human being.
Copy !req
29. Not a mutant, not a freak.
Copy !req
30. It was your funding that made
the transformation process
possible.
Copy !req
31. It's only fitting that you
should be the first
to undergo the treatment.
Copy !req
32. I caution you there may be
some discomfort at first.
Copy !req
33. Whatever it takes, Doctor.
Copy !req
34. Make me a new man.
Copy !req
35. You will be surprised
at just how new.
Copy !req
36. See, the transformation begins.
Copy !req
37. Excellent.
Copy !req
38. You serve me well, Mystique.
Copy !req
39. Such loyalty will be rewarded.
Copy !req
40. The rest shall be my slaves.
Copy !req
41. Increase the power.
Copy !req
42. I want to hear the cries
Copy !req
43. of a future being born!
Copy !req
44. Where's Adler?
Copy !req
45. I've been waiting a month.
I want my cure!
Copy !req
46. We all do, sweetie. Sit down.
Copy !req
47. Can't a girl have
a cup of coffee in peace?
Copy !req
48. They haven't learned
how to live at ease
with their mutant powers,
Copy !req
49. so they are frustrated.
Copy !req
50. Some lash out,
Copy !req
51. while some have turned inward,
Copy !req
52. letting their bitterness
consume them.
Copy !req
53. But they all feel dissatisfied
with themselves and alone.
Copy !req
54. You've given us a place
where we belong, Professor.
Copy !req
55. Just takes us hard-headed ones
longer to realize it.
Copy !req
56. Forget about it, Rogue.
Copy !req
57. We've all had a hard time
accepting who we are.
Copy !req
58. I'm cured! I'm cured! See?
Copy !req
59. My wings are gone.
Dr. Adler's treatment works!
Copy !req
60. I'm not a mutant anymore!
Copy !req
61. You don't have to be mutants!
Copy !req
62. You don't have to be hated!
Copy !req
63. You can be cured!
Copy !req
64. We're mutants!
That's what we are!
Copy !req
65. There's nothing wrong with us
that needs to be cured!
Copy !req
66. Look me in the eye
and tell me that!
Copy !req
67. It'll be my pleasure!
Copy !req
68. Cyclops! No!
Copy !req
69. It's not our place to tell
other mutants what to do.
Copy !req
70. If Adler can really change
mutants into ordinary humans,
Copy !req
71. then each of us'll have to look
into his own heart and decide.
Copy !req
72. You'll be like everybody else!
Copy !req
73. It's time we headed home.
Copy !req
74. Who wants to be normal?
Copy !req
75. Me! Take me next!
Copy !req
76. Me!
Copy !req
77. Cure me!
Copy !req
78. Mystique impersonates you
very well, Mr. Worthington.
Copy !req
79. Worthington is no more.
Copy !req
80. Now there is only Archangel.
Copy !req
81. Let the world beware.
Copy !req
82. The old world passes away.
Copy !req
83. Together we shall forge
a new one
Copy !req
84. in fire and blood!
Copy !req
85. The future is transformed!
Copy !req
86. I am the instrument
to purify the world!
Copy !req
87. The evil of human and mutant
must be cut away!
Copy !req
88. You shall help me
tear down the old order!
Copy !req
89. Those who oppose me
shall perish through
my agents of destruction.
Copy !req
90. Famine. Pestilence.
Copy !req
91. War.
Copy !req
92. And my greatest creation,
Copy !req
93. Death, the Winged Avenger!
Copy !req
94. From the ashes of this world,
I will build a better one!
Copy !req
95. Go forth, my Horsemen,
Copy !req
96. and let chaos
cleanse the world!
Copy !req
97. Looks like you're behind
the old eight ball, Gambit,
Copy !req
98. and I'm about to sink it.
Copy !req
99. You not win the game yet,
chere.
Copy !req
100. Could be you need incentive.
Copy !req
101. How about the winner
get a kiss from the loser?
Copy !req
102. That's not funny!
Or do you want to
end up in a coma?
Copy !req
103. You can drain my energy
anytime, chere.
Copy !req
104. Gambit has plenty.
Copy !req
105. Observe.
Copy !req
106. First, we charge the cue.
Copy !req
107. Don't let Gambit
get to you, Rogue.
Copy !req
108. I'd like to wipe that smirk
off his face.
Copy !req
109. Serve him right if I did give
that low-life a kiss.
Copy !req
110. Maybe Monsieur
Gambit's not as good
as he thinks he is.
Copy !req
111. Looks like you nicked
the table, Gambit.
Copy !req
112. Gambit!
Copy !req
113. The term "rec room" does not
mean that you must wreck it.
Copy !req
114. Storm makes jokes now.
What next?
Copy !req
115. Hopes are high as leaders
Copy !req
116. from around the world
meet in Paris this week
Copy !req
117. for the conventional
weapons disarmament talks.
Copy !req
118. But much tough
negotiation lies ahead.
Copy !req
119. Wait, here's
the Conference Chairman now.
Copy !req
120. Good day.
Copy !req
121. The leaders of the world
recognize
Copy !req
122. the desire of people
everywhere for peace.
Copy !req
123. But we must proceed carefully.
Copy !req
124. Can we disarm when mutants
walk among us?
Copy !req
125. Many questions must be answered
Copy !req
126. if we are to ensure
a secure future for humankind.
Copy !req
127. Fools!
You bleat for the future
Copy !req
128. like a herd of sheep!
Copy !req
129. I'll give you the future
right now!
Copy !req
130. I'm not sure what's happening,
Copy !req
131. but it appears
that a mutant terrorist
Copy !req
132. is disrupting
the peace conference!
Copy !req
133. Storm. What's happening?
Copy !req
134. Trouble
at the World Peace Conference.
Copy !req
135. Stop that mutant!
Copy !req
136. The weak and afraid
shall be smashed!
Copy !req
137. Show them!
Copy !req
138. Looks more like
a World War Conference.
Copy !req
139. We must tell Xavier.
Copy !req
140. You can't run
Copy !req
141. from a few mutants!
Copy !req
142. I am Apocalypse!
Copy !req
143. Look upon the future
and tremble!
Copy !req
144. The army is counter-attacking!
Copy !req
145. War! Archangel!
Copy !req
146. Destroy the irritants!
Copy !req
147. No one can save you
from the touch of Pestilence!
Copy !req
148. No!
Copy !req
149. All who oppose me
Copy !req
150. shall be crushed!
Copy !req
151. This is what
I've feared the most,
Copy !req
152. a powerful mutant driven
completely mad by his powers.
Copy !req
153. This isn't like Magneto
Copy !req
154. or the conspirators
who produced the Sentinels.
Copy !req
155. They could be appealed to,
reasoned with...
Copy !req
156. We have to stop Apocalypse now,
Copy !req
157. or there will be no future
for anyone.
Copy !req
158. Why can't I go with them,
Professor?
Copy !req
159. They'll need all the help
they can get.
Copy !req
160. I have another mission for you.
Copy !req
161. I recognized the mutants
with Apocalypse.
Copy !req
162. They were all on Muir Island,
hoping for Dr. Adler's cure.
Copy !req
163. But one interests me
more than the others.
Copy !req
164. This is the mutant who claimed
that Dr. Adler had cured him.
Copy !req
165. I want you to return
to Muir Island.
Copy !req
166. Dr. Adler's cure
could hold the key
to defeating this madman.
Copy !req
167. On my way, Professor.
Copy !req
168. If there's something fishy
going on up there, I'll find it.
Copy !req
169. Each generation has cried out
for a new world,
Copy !req
170. but has built the same old one,
corrupt and weak!
Copy !req
171. But the new world
shall come to pass!
Copy !req
172. I will purge the earth
of these benighted humans!
Copy !req
173. Take the food from their mouths!
Copy !req
174. No! Please!
No! Food!
Copy !req
175. Help! I need food!
Please help.
Copy !req
176. Food, please!
Copy !req
177. Turn their weapons against them!
Copy !req
178. War shall be their destruction!
Copy !req
179. Exterminate them.
Copy !req
180. We will.
Copy !req
181. They shall be purified
with fire and water!
Copy !req
182. I never thought I'd see
this place again.
Copy !req
183. Looks like the doc's doing
a little remodeling.
Copy !req
184. Dr. Adler!
Copy !req
185. What a pleasure it is
to see you again, my dear.
Copy !req
186. You thinking about putting in
a skylight, Doc?
Copy !req
187. Experiments sometimes
have unforeseen results.
Copy !req
188. It's your results
I'm interested in.
Copy !req
189. I discuss my treatment
with no one.
Copy !req
190. You'll discuss it with me, Doc!
Copy !req
191. What are you doing? No! Don't!
Copy !req
192. What did your cure do
to those mutants?
Copy !req
193. What would it have done to me?
Copy !req
194. No! Please! I'll tell you!
Copy !req
195. Well, looks like we got another
mutant ready for the cure.
Copy !req
196. There is no cure.
Copy !req
197. Apocalypse uses the treatment
to turn mutants into his slaves.
Copy !req
198. It makes them hate everyone,
humans and mutants,
Copy !req
199. like Apocalypse does.
Copy !req
200. He wants to destroy everything.
Copy !req
201. I had to help him,
he would have killed me.
Copy !req
202. He has a secret command center
buried under Stonehenge,
in England.
Copy !req
203. Old Apocalypse won't like
that you helped me.
Copy !req
204. You'd better find
some place to hide.
Copy !req
205. Who's gonna tell him?
Copy !req
206. Hey!
Copy !req
207. We needed that machine!
Copy !req
208. It might be the only way
to change those mutants back!
Copy !req
209. No one can stop Apocalypse!
Copy !req
210. I'm gonna try!
Copy !req
211. Fools!
Copy !req
212. Remember,
careful with the civilians.
Copy !req
213. Sure, Cyke.
Copy !req
214. I'll try not to bruise them
Copy !req
215. while I save their lives.
Copy !req
216. Even mutants may feel
the touch of Pestilence!
Copy !req
217. Incoming!
Copy !req
218. We can't let her touch them!
Copy !req
219. Rise, fog, and divert
our enemy from her path!
Copy !req
220. Storm, your master, commands!
Copy !req
221. I can't see!
Copy !req
222. It'll be a while before you
plague humanity again.
Copy !req
223. Who dares oppose the
Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse?
Copy !req
224. The X-Men do, bub!
Copy !req
225. Don't you think we're getting
a little carried away, here?
Copy !req
226. Hey!
Copy !req
227. Pig-faced runt
couldn't take a joke.
Copy !req
228. Feel the horror of War!
Copy !req
229. Wolverine!
Copy !req
230. Thanks, Cajun.
Copy !req
231. I think.
Copy !req
232. They are getting away!
Copy !req
233. And they'll lead us
to Apocalypse.
Copy !req
234. I wonder what rock
that snake's a-hiding under?
Copy !req
235. Come on, big boy,
where's your hospitality?
Copy !req
236. You had your chance
to be the first of my creatures,
Copy !req
237. the first to serve my will.
Copy !req
238. Dang, and I missed it!
Copy !req
239. Weak and foolish mutant!
Copy !req
240. You are corrupted
by those who want peace!
Copy !req
241. You cannot oppose me!
Copy !req
242. You're corrupt
like all the others.
Copy !req
243. You must be exterminated!
Copy !req
244. The Professor was right.
You are crazy.
Copy !req
245. Apocalypse, a band
of mutants has defeated us!
Copy !req
246. We are not worthy!
Copy !req
247. No!
Copy !req
248. My creatures cannot be defeated!
Copy !req
249. I cannot be defeated!
Copy !req
250. We beg to differ.
Copy !req
251. Destroy them all!
Copy !req
252. Pestilence shall separate
the weak from the strong!
Copy !req
253. I gotta slow these folks down.
Copy !req
254. It is time to
welcome Death, X-Men!
Copy !req
255. Let's see if I can't improve
your disposition.
Copy !req
256. No!
Copy !req
257. What— What have I done?
Copy !req
258. Stop! There's been
enough destruction!
Copy !req
259. Stop!
Copy !req
260. No!
Copy !req
261. You are not fit!
Copy !req
262. You are not worthy!
Copy !req
263. You are only
delaying the inevitable.
Copy !req
264. Wanna bet?
Copy !req
265. Cyclops! Jean!
They're getting away!
Copy !req
266. Get clear!
Copy !req
267. I wanted to be normal,
Copy !req
268. but all I did was prove that
I'm capable of terrible evil.
Copy !req
269. It wasn't your fault.
Copy !req
270. I wanted to deny myself,
too, for a time.
Copy !req
271. That could have been me
helping that madman.
Copy !req
272. Don't worry. I took the evil
away when I touched you.
Copy !req
273. It's a part of me now.
Copy !req
274. I just hope you're strong
enough to control it.
Copy !req
275. I wasn't.
Copy !req
