AREN'T YOU?
OF COURSE.
AND WITH YOU
HEADING THE OPPOSITION,
IT WON'T BE MUCH OF A FIGHT.
NO, IT WON'T.
MULTIPLE DVCS.
..., HE'S CRASHING.
THREE ...
OF O-NEGATIVE,
LET'S GO.
O-NEGATIVE,
LET'S GO, LET'S GO.
WE'VE GOT A ...
HE'S STILL TACHYING.
SHE'S NOT BREATHING.
PADDLES, COME ON.
GIVE ME A CBC ON HIM.
ECKHART HAS MORE
CONFIDENCE IN YOU THAN I DO.
BUT HE'S A BORN OPTIMIST.
SCIENTISTS WORKED
FOR YEARS TRYING TO CURE
THE SYMBOLIST DISEASE.
HOW CAN I BE EXPECTED TO
SOLVE THIS ONE IN TWO DAYS?
ONE OF THE CREATORS
DESPERATELY STRUGGLES TO
TRY AND SAVE
HIS PRECIOUS CREATIONS.
THAT'S RIGHT.
IN A WAY, I THINK
OF YOU AS MY CHILDREN.
A MAN SHOULDN'T OUTLIVE
HIS CHILDREN, SHOULD HE?
I'M SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.
I AM.
I CAN'T IMAGINE THE
PAIN YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH.
WELL, I APPRECIATE YOUR
EXPRESSIONS OF SYMPATHY, DOCTOR.
BUT IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU
AND YOUR GENETIC TAMPERING
I'D BE WHERE I SHOULD BE.
NEXT TO MY WIFE AND CHILD.
YOU ALSO NEVER WOULD HAVE SEEN
YOUR TWELFTH BIRTHDAY OR EVER
HAD A WIFE OR A CHILD, OKAY?
THE WORK THAT I DID AT GENOMEX
SAVED NOT ONLY YOUR LIFE,
BUT THE LIFE OF
EVERY OTHER NEW MUTANT.
YEAH,
AND YOU GO TAKE A LOOK.
TAKE A
LOOK AT THE LEGACY, HUH?
YEAH, BUT YOU KNOW THERE
ARE A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO
SHOULD HAVE DIED WHO ARE OUT
THERE LEADING PRODUCTIVE LIVES.
THEY'RE USING THEIR
ABILITIES TO HELP PEOPLE.
I DON'T NEED
YOU TO JUDGE ME, ADAM.
I'M NOT JUDGING YOU.
I'M TELLING YOU THAT
THERE IS A DIFFERENT WAY.
THERE IS A WAY TO GIVE YOU
A LITTLE PEACE IN YOUR LIFE.
THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
NOT FOR ME.
AND THAT IS THANKS TO
YOUR EXPERIMENTING.
ALL RIGHT, LOOK,
IT WAS A NEW FRONTIER.
IT WAS GENETICS.
WE WERE THE PIONEERS.
OH, SO I'M
A GUINEA PIG NOW.
I SAVED YOUR LIFE.
YOUR PARENTS
BROUGHT YOU TO ME.
AND YOU HAD NO IDEA WHAT
WAS HELD IN STORE FOR ME.
NO, NOT AT THE TIME.
ECKHART TOLD ME
THAT I SHOULD KILL YOU
THE SECOND
YOU FOUND THE CURE.
BUT I'M NOT GOING
TO WAIT THAT LONG.
OF COURSE.
WHAT?
I THOUGHT THAT YOU
POSSESSED INVULNERABILITY.
WHAT YOU REALLY GOT IS A
CAPACITY FOR CELLULAR GENERATION
WHICH IS OFF THE CHARTS.
SAME DIFFERENCE.
NO, NO, NO,
NOT IN MY WORLD IT ISN'T.
MARLOWE, YOU ARE
THE KEY TO THE CURE.
EMMA?
SHALIMAR.
JESSE, YOU'RE SICK.
YOU SHOULDN'T BE PHASING
IN AND OUT LIKE THAT.
I CAN'T HELP IT.
HOW LONG HAS SHE BEEN LIKE THIS?
TWENTY MINUTES.
CAN YOU WALK?
YEAH.
I HAVE TO GET
YOU GUYS TO TRIAGE.
I NEED TO ISOLATE THE DNA
STRAND THAT'S IN YOUR SYSTEM
TO BEAT THIS INFECTION.
NOW, THE INSTRUMENTS
TO DO THAT DON'T EXIST, OKAY?
SO I HAVE TO INVENT
A WHOLE NEW PARADIGM.
AND I HAVE TO ASK YOU TO
COME BACK TO MY LAB WITH ME.
BECAUSE THE LIVES OF A LOT
OF PEOPLE THAT I CARE ABOUT
ARE AT STAKE HERE.
SO WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?
I DON'T KNOW.
JESSE AND
EMMA ARE CHECKED IN.
GOOD.
LIFE SUPPORT WILL KEEP THEM
GOING FOR THREE TO FOUR HOURS.
LOOKS LIKE YOU TWO
ARE LOSING TEAMMATES.
I NEED YOUR HELP, CHARLES.
PLEASE.
OKAY, IF I CAN IDENTIFY
AND EXTRACT THE PROPER GENETIC
STRAND THEN I CAN EXECUTE
A MASSIVE REPLICATION.
YEAH, BUT HOW ARE YOU GOING
TO GET THE ANTIDOTE TO THE
REST OF THE NEW MUTANTS IN TIME?
THEORETICALLY,
IF I CAN TRANSFORM
THE BINARY COMPONENTS OF
YOUR GENETIC
CODE INTO A MICROWAVE
FORM THEN I CAN UPLINK IT
INTO THE GSA COMMUNICATIONS
SATELLITE AND THEN DISPERSE IT
ACROSS THE CONTINENT
IN A BIOTRANSMISSION.
KIND OF LIKE
A BLANKET INOCULATION.
THAT'S THE IDEA.
ALL RIGHT, CHARLES, I'M
GOING TO COMMENCE EXTRACTION.
ALRIGHT, THE COLUMN ON
THE RIGHT IS CLADOSPORIUM,
THE BACTERIAL STRAIN.
ON THE LEFT
HERE IS THE MICROWAVE
FORM OF THE ANTIDOTE.
NOW, WE'RE
ONTO SOMETHING IF WE
CAN KEEP THE BACTERIAL
LEVEL UNDER TEN.
IT'S HAPPENING.
LOOK AT THAT.
IT'S HAPPENING.
THAT'S IT.
BLEEDING.
I'M BLEEDING.
THERE'S NO SIGN OF INSTANT
CELLULAR REGENERATION.
I'LL GET THE FIRST-AID KIT.
YEAH.
THE EXTRACTION MUST
HAVE HAD A COUNTER-MUTATING
EFFECT ON YOUR DNA.
