OF GENOMEX UNNECESSARY
IN THE GREATER
SCHEME OF THINGS.
WELL, I GUESS ALL
WE CAN DO NOW IS WAIT.
YEAH, WELL, I STILL THINK I
SHOULD'VE GONE WITH JESSE.
WELL, YOU HEARD ADAM.
HE SAID HE NEEDED
TWO OF US HERE TO ASSIST.
OKAY.
WELL, THEN WHY
DIDN'T JESSE STAY?
C'MON, SHALIMAR NEEDS MORE
THAN JESSE'S MASSING AND PHASING
TO GET HER AND BEAU
OUT OF THERE IN ONE PIECE.
WELL, IF YOU WERE AS CLOSE
TO SHALIMAR AS JESSE IS THEN
I'M SURE YOU'D UNDERSTAND.
BRENNAN.
HER HEART HAS STOPPED.
ADAM.
THERE'S NOT ENOUGH TIME.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
TRYING TO SAVE HER LIFE.
COME ON, ANGEL.
COME ON.
IT'S NOT WORKING.
OKAY, THREE'S A CHARM.
COME ON. COME ON, ANGEL.
I GUESS IT WORKED.
WHOA, HEY, HEY, RELAX.
YOU'RE GOING TO BE SAFE.
WHERE AM I?
WE'VE BEEN
TAKING CARE OF YOU.
YOU'RE GOING TO BE OKAY.
WHERE'S BEAU?
SHALIMAR'S BRINGING HIM HERE.
EVERYTHING'S
GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT.
YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT.
EASY, EASY.
I'M NOT GOING TO HURT YOU.
IT'S OKAY, WE'RE FRIENDS.
TAKE MY HAND.
IT'S OKAY. COME ON.
GOOD.
SIT DOWN.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
ANGEL'S HEART STOPPED, BUT
BRENNAN MANAGED TO REVIVE HER.
I'M GLAD YOU WERE HERE.
YOU OKAY?
GOOD.
HERE, SAVE YOUR STRENGTH.
COME HERE.
COME HERE.
I GOT AN IDEA.
NOW THAT ECKHART
HAS BEAU, I'M GUESSING
THAT SECURITY'S GOING TO
BE LAX AT TRICORP BOTANICAL.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
LET'S DO IT.
THIS MAY COME AS
A SURPRISE, DR. HARRISON,
I'M NOT A PARTICULARLY
OPTIMISTIC MAN.
THAT SAID, I HAVE TO ADMIT
THE WORK YOU'VE DONE HERE GIVES
ME HOPE FOR A BRIGHTER FUTURE.
THANK YOU, MR. ECKHART.
THAT'S AWFULLY KIND.
TO COMPLETE OUR
RESEARCH ON THIS SUBJECT,
I'LL INJECT HIM WITH A
DRUG THAT WILL PERMANENTLY
PARALYZE HIS BRAIN FUNCTION.
IS THAT REALLY NECESSARY?
I'M AFRAID SO.
THERE'S NO TELLING
HOW STRONG HIS MUTANT
ABILITIES HAVE BECOME.
YOU LOOK A
LITTLE BIT SLEEPY.
IT'S TIME FOR
YOU TO TAKE A NAP.
NOW, LET'S NOT
DO ANYTHING RASH.
THIS IS HOW WE'RE
GOING TO PLAY THIS.
WE START BY SHOWING A
DECEASED SOLDIER SOME RESPECT.
BEAU.
YOU DON'T WANT TO DO THIS.
WHY?
THERE'S NOTHING TO GO ON FOR.
THAT'S NOT TRUE.
MY SQUAD IS GONE.
THAT'S NOT TRUE.
YOU GOT A NEW SQUAD NOW.
A NEW PACK.
OH, YOU SHOULD
HAVE SEEN IT, JESSE.
I THOUGHT ECKHART
WAS GOING TO EXPLODE.
I MEAN, TOUCHING HIM
MUST'VE BEEN BAD ENOUGH,
BUT TAKING ECKHART
HOSTAGE IN A HEADLOCK?
I GOTTA TELL YOU,
MADE FOR A VERY SMOOTH EXIT.
BUT I GOTTA KNOW:
WERE YOU AWAKE THE WHOLE TIME
YOU WERE ON THAT TABLE?
I WOKE UP WHEN
THEY STARTED POKING ME.
BUT ONE THING I HAVE
LEARNED WITH THIS FERAL STUFF
IS TURNING PAIN AWAY.
AND YOU'RE RIGHT -
IT'S A LOT EASIER KNOWING
THAT YOU'RE NOT ALONE.
TELL ME ABOUT IT.
ANGEL.
EASY, BIG GUY.
SOME OF US AREN'T
AS FERAL AS OTHERS.
YOU SURE SHE'S
GOING TO BE OKAY?
BETTER THAN OKAY.
YOU GUYS ARE
BOTH ONE OF US NOW.
NEW MUTANTS.
FERALS,
TO BE EXACT.
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT.
WHAT ABOUT THE EXPERIMENT?
THE
EXPERIMENT WAS A FAILURE.
AS FOR
TRICORP BOTANICAL, WELL,
THEY GOT SOME
PROBLEMS OF THEIR OWN.
RIGHT, BRENNAN?
ABSOLUTELY.
NOW THAT WE'VE CORNERED THE
MARKET ON THE REFLISHA PRISAY.
AS I SAID, DR. HARRISON, I AM
NOT BY NATURE AN OPTIMISTIC MAN.
THE REASON
IS SIMPLY THAT I CANNOT
BEAR THE DISAPPOINTMENT THAT
IS SO FREQUENTLY THE RESULT
OF HEIGHTENED EXPECTATIONS.
I HAVE ALWAYS SUBSCRIBED TO
THE ADAGE, "HOPE FOR THE BEST,
AND EXPECT THE WORST."
I UNDERSTAND THAT, MR. ECKHART.
I ALSO
UNDERSTAND THAT THE TRAUMA
OF YOUR EXPERIENCE YESTERDAY,
ALONG WITH THE LOSS
OF LIEUTENANT LONGSTREET,
MUST BE VERY
DIFFICULT TO ACCOMMODATE.
BUT WE STILL HAVE
THE REFLISHA PRISAY.
IS THAT RIGHT?
I GATHER YOU HAVEN'T CHECKED
IN AT YOUR OFFICE THIS MORNING.
NO.
I CAME DIRECTLY HERE.
AND YOU HAVEN'T
HEARD ABOUT THE SECURITY
BREACH LAST NIGHT.
PRELIMINARY LABORATORY ANALYSIS
INDICATES THAT THE LAST SPECIMEN
WAS DESTROYED BY AN APPLICATION
OF HIGH VOLTAGE ELECTRICITY.
IT'S MOST LIKELY THE
WORK OF BRENNAN MULWRAY.
HE'S ONE
