X-Men: Evolution (2000) s02e15 Episode Script

Bring the patient in.
Right away.
They're ready.
- Tighten the body straps.
- Secure binding cables.
Make sure her hands are tied.
You can't let her hands move, even a little, you understand? Come on.
Hey, watch it.
Watch her.
Come on.
Watch her hands! There she is! Let's get her! Wanda.
- Professor, are you? - It's all right.
Everything is under control.
I'll be fine.
You seem very angry today.
I was hoping we'd made more progress in controlling that anger.
Aren't they treating you well here? Just get me out.
Wanda, I There's a place for you at my institute.
But right now I simply can't risk it.
Excuse me for interrupting, professor.
I'm afraid we're going to have to cut Wanda's session short today.
Radiology is waiting to do some additional MRls.
- Yes, of course.
- Wanda, now, I expect you to go quietly.
No more outbursts, understood? Got a few x-rays to take.
Keep moving, Wanda.
There's nothing to get agitated about.
I'll help you.
Good.
Just keep her under control.
I've got other business to attend to.
Come on.
- Come on! - Hi, Kurt.
You and your locker not speaking? Yeah, it's holding my history book ransom, and I'm late for class.
Well, you gotta know how to negotiate.
Hey.
Thanks, Kitty.
I owe you one.
Actually, I do need one teensy little favor: Your unbiased opinion of these muffins.
I made them in home-ec class.
Okay.
I guess.
Well, how does it taste? - Hard to describe.
- Oh, well, what do you think it needs? Something to wash the taste away.
Excuse me.
So, what's going on with Duncan these days? - Has he been around? - Yeah, he's around.
He's You know.
- No, what? Tell me.
- Well, he's just not the guy I thought he was.
It hasn't been that great.
Not like it is with you and Taryn.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, Taryn's real nice.
Listen, Jean we need to get things out in the open.
You know, for a long time now, I've been Oh, never mind him.
What were you gonna say? Well, it's just that I We You know, why don't you just go on.
He's waiting.
We'll talk later.
All right, already! I'm coming.
Guess who's back.
Hey, is that really you? Yeah.
It's you.
You pathetic, lazy clods have destroyed my house.
Yeah.
Well, we've been kind of thinking about cleaning up.
You do that.
And while you're at it, grow some backbones! What happened to the team of tough mutants I assembled? What are you talking about? We're as tough as ever.
Are you? When was the last time you beat the X-Men? Oh, I know.
Never.
They've outshined you on every level.
And worse, one of you even tried joining them.
Let me guess.
You must be Mystic.
Try "Mystique.
" This is my home and my rules.
Rule number one: Move out of my room.
Think you can handle that, Bamm-Bamm? Why, sure.
Not a good idea, Boom Boom.
Fine.
Whatever.
I was getting sick of living in Moron Manor anyway.
She learns quickly.
Unlike the rest of you.
Yeah.
Just where have you been all this time? All you need to know is that I'm back.
And those arrogant little X-Men are about to get knocked down a peg.
Gentlemen, meet your new secret weapon.
- Wanda? - Pietro.
Ex-girlfriend? Worse.
She's my sister.
Your sister? Hey, you two need some serious family counseling.
- Make her stop.
- You make her stop.
Fine.
I will.
Oh, gross.
I slimed myself.
Wanda.
Be at rest, child.
That should give you some small idea of what she can do.
Are you out of your mind, bringing Wanda here? Can't you see how dangerous she is? She's a witch with those powers.
And that is precisely what makes her so valuable to our little cause.
Anyway, you needn't worry.
As you see, I've brought an old friend, Agatha Harkness to teach her to focus her anger into unbeatable power.
Just what makes you think she's gonna cooperate? You've noticed I'm not one of her favorite people.
She'll cooperate.
When I downloaded Xavier's files from Cerebro I found a complete psychological profile from his sessions with Wanda.
She'll do what's needed, because I can give her the one thing she wants most: Revenge.
I'm out of here.
Definitely too many women for this house.
Room's all yours Mystique.
Kurt.
Man, what are you doing sneaking around? - Have you seen Kitty? - Yeah.
Yeah, she's been looking for you.
Something about you being her taste tester.
Man.
This morning's muffins still haven't made it through my system.
I wonder if they ever will.
Oh, there you are.
Okay, how do these muffins compare with my last six batches? Scott, Kitty, Kurt.
Gather everyone and meet me in the library.
Tell them it's top priority.
Well, better do as he says.
Muffin? So I've had numerous sessions with her at the hospital.
The poor child has a tortured mind.
And when you add that to the power of her mutant abilities she becomes very dangerous.
What is the source of this anger? Her father.
He abandoned her years ago when she became unmanageable.
- So now what? Maybe she just ran away.
No.
I sense the hand of someone else in this.
Someone who may be planning to use those dangerous powers of hers against us.
Easy, Wanda.
Concentrate only on your breathing.
- I can't.
- Let it be the focus of your whole being.
The flame is your anger.
It will extinguish with serenity.
- No.
- Don't let it overtake you.
Rage is strong, but you are stronger.
Father! That's it.
Restrain the dark impulses.
See only the beauty.
Father! Father! Looks nice.
Wanda, please.
I just wanna talk.
I mean, come on, you're my sister.
Thanks.
Listen, I know how hard it must have been on you.
You don't know anything.
I really didn't want him to leave you there.
Really.
But you were so out of control.
He just convinced me it was for the best.
Father! Father! Father! Don't leave me! I'm not saying he was right but try to see it from his point of view.
Monsters don't have a point of view! And you're just like him.
You always were.
Which begs the question where do your loyalties lie? Me or him? You.
Absolutely.
No No doubt.
Magneto's been no father to me either.
Well, then, I say it's time we move forward with our plans.
You think so? I mean, you think we're ready to go up against Magneto? Almost.
That's why I've arranged for a little test first.
I need your attention.
- What's up, professor? - Cerebro discovered Wanda's location.
She's joined the Brotherhood boys.
I've tracked their movements.
Right now, they're in the Bayville mall.
So? Maybe there's a sale on "I'm with stupid" shirts.
The mall's been closed for hours.
Suit up and find out what they're doing.
Don't worry, professor.
If the loserhood is up to something we'll head them off.
- And without breaking a sweat.
- Yeah.
This place sure looks different at night.
This'll be the first time here I didn't buy shoes.
All right, let's split up.
Jean, Spyke and I will take the first floor.
The rest of you check the balconies.
Not your color anyway.
Lance, what are you guys doing here? Kitty, I want you to leave.
Now.
Yeah? Why? Let's just say things are gonna get wild, and I don't want you hurt.
- Now, shove off.
- Back off, Blob.
- Spyke.
- Out of my way, Lance.
Forget it.
You gotta get out of here.
I said, back off.
I don't wanna hurt you.
That's funny, because I wanna hurt you.
I can't see! Hi, and welcome to the Style Pile.
You're at the right place and not a moment too soon.
- What do you think? - As I thought, 32 short with a prehensile tail.
Tough fit, but I've got just the thing.
Perfect.
You know, not everyone can carry off that look.
- You forgot the hat.
- Hey.
Hey! My visor.
Come on, Summers, open your eyes.
Afraid you'll bring down the whole mall? Keep talking.
I'll look at you, bug breath.
Missed me.
Think you dropped this.
Thanks.
Bad vibe.
Scott, what are you doing? I don't know.
I can't control it.
I can't close my eyes.
Help! I can't move! Don't worry.
I got you.
How'd we get out here? It's no good.
We can't stop her.
She's too strong.
- We've got to retreat.
- No.
It's not over yet.
Yes, it is.
Let's go.
All right.
We beat them.
We finally beat them.
Thanks to our new secret weapon, the Scarlet Witch.
You were great, Wanda.
Man, I never thought you could be this in control.
- If our father had known - Your father, not mine.
He'll pay for what he did to me.
We didn't have a choice, Scott.
She was too much for us.
Don't be too hard on yourselves.
If it's anyone's fault, it's mine.
I should have trained you on how to handle someone like Wanda.
Handling defeat is as much a mark of your character as coming home the victor.
And from what I see, this was a lesson apparently much needed.
