ALREADY HAS.
IN THE
MIDST OF PICKING UP CONLAN,
WE RAN INTO BRENNAN MULWRAY.
SO ADAM'S HEARD ALL ABOUT
YOUR CHANGE OF HEART BY NOW.
IT WOULD HAVE BEEN
SO MUCH EASIER FOR YOU TO
JUST KEEP OUR APPOINTMENT.
IT WOULD HAVE BEEN SO
MUCH EASIER IF YOU'D HAVE JUST
KILLED ME WHEN WE MET.
I SAVED YOU FROM A WASTED
LIFE AND TURNED YOUR PIDDLING
MUTANT POWERS INTO
SOMETHING TRULY FORMIDABLE.
ALL YOU GAVE ME IS PAIN.
WHICH WILL SOON BE OVER.
AFTER DR HARRISON HAS
COMPLETED THE FINAL EXAMINATION.
HAVE MISS CONLAN
PREPARED FOR STASIS.
YES, SIR.
HEY, EMMA.
EMMA?
HELLO?
WHO'S THIS?
I THINK WE BOTH
KNOW WHO THIS IS.
I KNOW WHO I AM.
YOU ARE NOTHING
BUT A FREAK ACCIDENT.
NOW,
IS THAT ANY WAY TO TALK
TO YOUR BETTER HALF?
IF YOU THINK JOINING
THE GSA MAKES YOU BETTER.
WHEN DID YOU GET SO TOUGH?
LAST TIME I
SAW YOU, YOU LOOKED LIKE
A LITTLE GIRL WHO WAS
READY TO CRY.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
TELL ADAM HIS METHODS
DON'T CUT IT ANYMORE.
SO I'M GOING TO
PUT AN END TO ECKHART AND
THE GSA ONCE AND FOR ALL.
YOU KNOW, IT'S SO
SIMPLE I'M DISGUSTED ADAM
DIDN'T THINK OF IT SOONER.
WHAT ARE
YOU GOING TO DO?
WHAT THEY'VE
BEEN DOING TO US.
TURN GENOMEX INTO
ONE GIANT STASIS POD.
ONLY THIS TIME,
THEIR METABOLISMS
WILL BE LOWERED TO THE
POINT THAT NO
ONE WILL EVER WAKE UP.
BUT YOU'LL KILL
ALL OF THE NEW MUTANTS
THAT ECKHART'S HOLDING.
JUST TELL ADAM I WANT TO
MEET HIM AND I WANT TO KNOW
WHO'S SIDE HE'S ON.
SO THE GOOD NEWS
IS SHE WAS ONLY PRETENDING
TO GO OVER TO THE GSA.
YEAH,
WELL THE BAD NEWS IS SHE IS
OUT OF HER FREAKING MIND.
I DON'T KNOW.
DON'T SAY THAT.
LOOK, LOOK, SEE SHE'S THE...
SHE'S THE RASH SIDE.
SHE'S THE UNRESTRAINED SIDE
OF YOU THAT YOU NORMALLY KEEP IN
CHECK BY YOUR BETTER INSTINCTS.
YEAH,
BUT DOESN'T SHE CARE ABOUT
ALL OF THE INNOCENT PEOPLE
WHO WILL BE KILLED IF
SHE GOES THROUGH WITH THIS?
NO, I DON'T THINK SO.
I THINK HE'S JUST
FOCUSED ON DESTROYING
ECKHART AND THE GSA.
WELL,
SHE IS NOTHING LIKE ME.
WELL, EVIDENTALLY, ONE OF THE
BY-PRODUCTS OF THIS GENETIC
SPLIT IS THIS
DIVISION OF PERSONALITY
CHARACTERISTICS WHERE
SHE BECOMES MORE
IMPULSE-DRIVEN AND YOU'RE,
YOU KNOW, MORE CAUTIOUS.
WELL, IT IS A
DANGEROUS WORLD, ADAM.
CAUTIOUS IS
THE ONLY WAY TO BE.
EMMA, WE ALL HAVE TO
TAKE RISKS SOMETIMES, RIGHT?
TAKING OUT GENOMEX
IS MORE THAN A RISK.
IT WOULD BE A DISASTER.
EXACTLY.
SO WE HAVE
TO TALK HER OUT OF IT.
I TRIED THAT.
SHE WON'T LISTEN.
BUT SHE'LL
MEET WITH ME, RIGHT?
YOU AND YOU ALONE.
SHE WANTS MUTANT X
TO JOIN HER IN HER PLAN.
ALL RIGHT, BOURBON NEAT.
THANKS.
THAT'LL BE...
ON THE HOUSE.
YOU'RE A DOLL.
YEAH.
I DIDN'T
KNOW YOU DRANK.
IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR
THE TEATOTALLER VERSION,
I BELIEVE
SHE'S WITH YOU.
LOOK,
I WANT YOU TO COME BACK
TO THE SANCTUARY WITH ME.
WHY, SO I CAN SEE MY WEAK
SIDE IN WHIMPERING ACTION?
NO, BECAUSE
I THINK I FOUND A WAY TO
GET YOU BACK TO YOURSELF.
YOUR WHOLE, TRUE SELF.
AND I THOUGHT YOU CAME HERE
TO JOIN ME ON MY CRUSADE.
NO, I'M GOING
TO STOP YOUR CRUSADE.
PLEASE.
WELL...
YOU WANT TO
KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE?
MASON ECKHART AND HIS CRONIES
ARE ANYTHING BUT INNOCENT.
THERE ARE DOZENS OF
NEW MUTANTS IN STASIS.
YOU WANT
TO KILL THEM TOO?
IT'S A
SMALL PRICE TO PAY FOR THE
HUNDREDS WHO WILL BE SAVED
IF WE STOP ECKHART NOW.
SEE, YOU'RE THINKING WITH
ONLY ONE SIDE OF YOUR BRAIN.
YOU'RE NOT THINKING CLEARLY.
NO, I HAVE NEVER
BEEN MORE LUCID.
DON'T YOU SEE WHAT A GOLDEN
OPPORTUNITY THIS IS FOR US?
I AM INSIDE GENOMEX.
ECKHART TRUSTS ME.
ALL RIGHT, LOOK,
LOOK, LISTEN TO ME.
MY TESTS SHOW THAT, IN THIS
FORM AS TWO SEPARATE IDENTITIES,
YOU BOTH COULD BE
DEAD IN A COUPLE OF HOURS.
I FEEL FINE.
I'VE GOT LAB
TESTS TO PROVE IT.
YOU TESTED HER, NOT ME.
YOU'RE BOTH THE SAME.
NOW, I NEED YOU
TO COME BACK SO THAT I CAN
REINTEGRATE YOU WITH HER.
I'LL THINK ABOUT IT.
AFTER I TAKE
CARE OF GENOMEX.
I CANNOT
LET YOU DO THAT.
EMMA.
EMMA!
EMMA!
SO HOW'S
THIS GOING TO WORK?
