X-Men (1992) s02e13 Episode Script
Reunion (2)
NARRATOR: Previously on X-MEN Who are you? What do you want with us? My name is Sinister.
Mr.
Sinister.
I've heard the name.
Frankly, I'm not impressed.
(EXPLOSION) Destroy them! Tear them apart! MR.
SINISTER: Get Jean Grey to the plane! Jean! Obey me.
Obey! -Professor? -You're alive! If you will rendezvous with me at the following coordinates Morph said something about Sinister having the Professor.
So, we're flying into a trap.
Suits me.
Brace yourselves, people, we're going in! I'm afraid the accommodations are hardly first-class, but you will only be here until the X-Men join us.
You should feel honored.
Your genetic material and theirs will live on in my army of super-mutants after you're gone.
Your plan is doomed, Sinister.
You underestimate the X-Men.
(GROANS) I have summoned the X-Men into a trap.
These are the coordinates the Professor gave us.
An uncharted tropical valley hidden in Antarctica? This is fantastic.
Not his best landing.
CYCLOPS: Search the wreckage for clues.
Maybe you move this thing.
Gambit look inside.
No problem, sugar.
(GRUNTS) Can't lift it.
My powers, they're gone! Take it easy, chère.
First, we charge the card.
No! Gambit have no power either.
-Cyclops, your eyes! -I know.
Our powers have abandoned us.
Curious.
This phenomenon cannot be natural.
I'm at a loss to explain it.
RUCKUS: You know what they say, easy come, easy go! Surrender to us now, and Mr.
Sinister just might let you live.
(WOLVERINE GROWLING) Mr.
Sinister has plans for you, ex-X-Men.
We'll never surrender to Sinister.
We took you apart once, Ruckus, and we can do it again.
That was when you had your mutant powers.
And since we aren't affected, I think you better watch your mouth, and mine.
(ROARING) Get them! ROGUE: Put me down you gob of goop.
You hear the lady.
Or you'll do what, without your powers? (LAUGHING) I do not need the elements to deal with a toad like you.
(SQUAWKING) (GRUNTING) Sorry, lady.
You got a date with a man in a cape.
You'll need more than that piece of tin to hide behind.
You're not so much.
What did Mr.
S.
ever see in you, anyhow? (SCREAMS) (GRUNTING) (SCREAMING) It'll be a pleasure ripping you apart.
Good luck, pal.
There's nothing mutant about these.
(EXCLAIMS) They may get me, but I'm taking your ugly carcass out first.
(GROANS) Feeling dizzy? Your mind reels from the power of Vertigo.
There is no up nor down, no left nor right.
Lady, you make me sick.
-On your knees! -No.
-Surrender to Vertigo! -Never! (SCREAMING) (COUGHING) I could use some mutant healing power right about now.
Got to get moving before those maggots pick up my trail.
Quick! We're gonna lose him in the jungle.
Track down Wolverine.
If he won't be taken, destroy him.
(SQUAWKING) They don't waste any time.
You belong to Mr.
Sinister now.
If you give us no trouble, you may live longer.
No matter what Sinister has planned for us, we'll never belong to him.
Shut up and get moving.
(GRUNTS) (PANTING) (SNIFFS) (ROARING) What's this? Half time? (GROWLS) (SNIFFS) I don't like being tracked, and you need a shower.
Don't pretend you don't know Ka-Zar, mutant.
Your kind have enslaved the peoples of the Savage Land.
Take me to your master, or you will pay for your crimes.
Look, nature boy, there's some guys on my tail.
I got no time for conversation.
(GRUNTS) Then perish! You should have minded your own business.
(GROANS) (GROWLING) I don't know who you think I am, but one thing I don't have is a master.
No, Zabu! KA-ZAR: You do not belong to the outlander known as Sinister? Belong to him? I'm down in this fern bar to rip him a new navel.
Then join me.
The others who opposed Sinister are imprisoned in the great citadel.
-I am the only one left.
-Not anymore, bub.
(SQUAWKING) (SCREAMING) (SQUAWKS) (SCREAMS) Come, my friend! They have given us the way to attack the citadel.
"Attack" is one of my favorite words, and the name's Wolverine.
Does this leather chicken have seatbelts? (GROWLS) You must remain here, Zabu.
If we do not return, avenge us.
MR.
SINISTER: You join us at last.
I trust your defeat wasn't too tiring.
Skip the small talk, Sinister! Your eyes can destroy, but they cannot see.
You've got us, but we don't have to listen to your drivel.
I shall take mutantkind to the ultimate expression of their power! You'd rather fawn over humankind in hopes of a sniveling coexistence, or fight among yourselves to prepare for a war you cannot win, unless you're willing to force your mutations to the next stage.
As your slaves? As my creations.
As my gift to the world.
The mutant powers of all combined in each.
As my children.
You, Jean Grey, and you, Scott Summers, all my life, I've waited to create with you.
With this device, I can imprint portions of the genetic code from any mutant into another, increasing their powers in unpredictable, but stunning ways.
Magneto's DNA shall provide the first test.
Do it, Sinister, but shut up and be quick about it.
Speak bravely, Magneto, while you can.
(SCREAMING) Stop it, Sinister! You're destroying him.
What do you care, Xavier? Would he care if I destroyed you? (GROANS) MR.
SINISTER: First test.
Magneto's strength flows through me.
Show them.
(GROANING) The room.
Spin! Gambit! Don't fight it.
You can't.
(LAUGHING) (GROANING) My powers do not weaken.
I'm frightened, Gambit.
I don't know how to fight them without my powers.
Take her next.
Be brave, chère.
Gambit never say this to anyone before, but Gambit loves you.
ROGUE: No! (GROANS) My people are held down below.
Sinister's diabolical machines lie that way.
That's where my friends will be.
So beautiful, yet so strong.
Well, I always did think I was kind of cute.
Nice of you to mention it.
Wolverine, how nice.
Get him! Out of my way, dog breath.
GORGEOUS GEORGE: You don't wanna let them out yet.
We haven't finished playing with them.
Surrender, or feel the power of Vertigo.
(GROANING) SHANNA: Psst! Yoo-hoo! (GRUNTS) (GROANS) Ka-Zar! -I knew you would come for us.
-Shanna.
VERTIGO: Kneel! Become one of the master's slaves.
They cannot help you.
You'll have to kill me first.
(CLAMORING) Stop them! (ROARING) We have to destroy the machines.
My legs! This'll teach you to keep your paws off a lady.
The name is Gambit.
Remember it.
(EXCLAIMS) Lightning, deliver this place from darkness.
Payback time.
We've heard just about enough out of you.
Your mutant powers will not save you from Vertigo.
You deny the future, so you shall not live to see it.
(MR.
SINISTER GROANS) I warned you before to leave us alone.
I can't.
I won't.
The world needs What was that? I don't think I heard you right.
(SCREAMING) Must have you both.
Must use (SCREAMING) Morph, no! -CYCLOPS: Sinister! -Don't fight it.
You can't.
-XAVIER: Fight Sinister's mind control.
-Why should I? (EXCLAIMS) They think they're safe, but they've forgotten about good old Morph.
Morph, you're part of the team.
We are your family.
No matter what Sinister has done to you, you are and will always be one of the X-Men.
The X-Men! (GROANING) He's gone all to pieces.
Master! I'll save you, master.
MR.
SINISTER: The future cannot be destroyed so easily.
Yes, it can.
It will be a while before he gets back together.
(MORPH GROANS) Morph! BEAST: The detonations are intensifying.
CYCLOPS: Everybody out of here! (GROANING) XAVIER: It will take time to put right what Sinister tried to destroy.
Thankfully, the X-Men have proved what I'd always hoped, that, in my absence, they can carry on together with our important work.
When we return home I will be able to remove the device Sinister implanted in Morph, but removing the psychic damage will take longer.
It was good to fight alongside you again, Charles.
Then join me in my work.
That can never be.
We each have our own destiny.
Only the future will prove which one of us is right.
Goodbye, my friend.
The Savage Land is cleansed of outlanders.
Now, its true future begins.
(LAUGHING EVILLY)
