want this girl found.

171
00:15:14,914 --> 00:15:17,784
Someone who's
hunting mutants.

172
00:15:17,850 --> 00:15:19,452
According to the
girl's father,

173
00:15:19,519 --> 00:15:23,190
there's been a surge
in mutant activity
in the area recently.

174
00:15:23,256 --> 00:15:25,525
Furthermore, and
even more puzzling,

175
00:15:25,592 --> 00:15:29,196
I detect no such activity
there when I use Cerebro.

176
00:15:29,262 --> 00:15:34,968
Huh. Big deal. You're gizmo's
probably just got a worn-out
doohicky or somethin'.

177
00:15:35,035 --> 00:15:38,271
And you ain't gettin'
any younger yourself, Charlie.

178
00:15:38,338 --> 00:15:40,840
Oh, grow up.
(GROANS)

179
00:15:40,907 --> 00:15:43,776
Keep your wig on.
I'm just pullin' his chain.

180
00:15:45,012 --> 00:15:46,846
BEAST: Professor.

181
00:15:46,913 --> 00:15:52,619
Are you suggesting that we
should go to Japan ourselves?
Look into the matter?

182
00:15:52,685 --> 00:15:55,989
I find it very difficult
to believe that everything
that's happening

183
00:15:56,056 --> 00:15:58,758
is merely the product
of random coincidence.

184
00:15:58,825 --> 00:16:03,330
So, yes.
I want the X-Men to go
to Japan and find this girl.

185
00:16:03,396 --> 00:16:06,933
I agree something
has to be done, Charles.
But what about Scott?

186
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,469
We're not the X-Men
without Cyclops.

187
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,417
Unbelievable. Don't tell me
you've been hangin' out here
this whole time.

188
00:16:25,718 --> 00:16:27,054
Where do ya take a dump?

189
00:16:34,094 --> 00:16:36,863
There's nothing wrong
with Cerebro that
I can find.

190
00:16:36,929 --> 00:16:38,865
No other areas
seem to be affected.

191
00:16:38,931 --> 00:16:41,834
All mutant activity
shows up clearly.

192
00:16:41,901 --> 00:16:45,838
It's only Tohoku
that comes up blank.

193
00:16:45,905 --> 00:16:49,709
BEAST: Perhaps some
thing, or someone,
is cloaking the area,

194
00:16:49,776 --> 00:16:51,911
preventing it
from being scanned.

195
00:16:51,978 --> 00:16:55,215
CHARLES: Whatever it is,
it may be connected
with Hisako's disappearance.

196
00:16:55,282 --> 00:16:58,251
Well, we'll find out
soon enough,
once we get to Japan.

197
00:16:58,318 --> 00:17:00,087
Mmm.

198
00:17:00,153 --> 00:17:03,056
By the way, was it
wise to send Logan
to fetch Scott,

199
00:17:03,123 --> 00:17:06,126
considering their
rather bumpy history?

200
00:17:06,193 --> 00:17:09,496
You'll notice I made sure
Ororo went along with him.

201
00:17:11,264 --> 00:17:13,133
CYCLOPS: I can't
fight any more.

202
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,069
You need a reason to fight
and I've lost mine.

203
00:17:16,136 --> 00:17:19,739
STORM: Scott, snap out of it.
Who said anything
about fighting?

204
00:17:19,806 --> 00:17:22,809
We're just going
to look for
a missing teenage girl.

205
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:25,812
WOLVERINE: If emo boy
wants to spend his life
cryin' about somethin'

206
00:17:25,878 --> 00:17:29,149
that happened a year ago...
Let him.
Logan!

207
00:17:29,216 --> 00:17:33,986
Aww, come on.
Listen to him, will ya?
Full of self-pity.

208
00:17:34,053 --> 00:17:36,989
He'd be useless
to us anyway.

209
00:17:37,056 --> 00:17:39,025
He acts like
he owns her.

210
00:17:39,092 --> 00:17:42,195
Like Jean meant
nothing to the
rest of us.

211
00:17:42,262 --> 00:17:45,198
Well, there's one thing
I know for sure, bub.

212
00:17:45,265 --> 00:17:48,701
Jeannie'd die all
over again if she saw
the way you're actin'.

213
00:17:53,906 --> 00:17:55,007
(CRASHING)

214
00:17:55,074 --> 00:17:56,143
Stop this!

215
00:17:59,546 --> 00:18:02,081
Hey, Cyc,
what'd I do,
hit a nerve?

216
00:18:02,149 --> 00:18:05,652
You know, that might've
stung a little bit more if it
weren't for my healing factor.

217
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,424
You wanna feel real pain?
Say her name again.

218
00:18:11,958 --> 00:18:13,126
Jean.

219
00:18:15,695 --> 00:18:17,497
STORM: That's enough!

220
00:18:23,236 --> 00:18:27,106
Why do you have to be
such a guy and pretend
that you don't care?

221
00:18:27,174 --> 00:18:31,378
Is it that hard to admit that
you've been as worried
about him as the rest of us?

222
00:18:35,215 --> 00:18:40,753
Please, we have to find her.
She's out there somewhere,
all alone.

223
00:18:40,820 --> 00:18:43,590
If we don't
find this girl,
nobody will.

224
00:18:44,991 --> 00:18:47,694
There are still people
that need you, Scott.

225
00:18:52,332 --> 00:18:54,567
The X-Men need you.

226
00:18:54,634 --> 00:18:56,736
You know it's what Jean
would have wanted.

227
00:18:59,906 --> 00:19:02,809
Well... You know
where we'll be.

228
00:19:02,875 --> 00:19:04,711
(FOOTSTEPS RETREATING)

229
00:19:19,892 --> 00:19:23,663
JEAN: So beautiful...
So far away...

230
00:19:23,730 --> 00:19:25,865
Strange to think that
some of the stars we're
looking at

231
00:19:25,932 --> 00:19:28,901
have been dead for
thousands and thousands
of years.

232
00:19:31,504 --> 00:19:34,040
It makes you realize
where we stand.

233
00:19:36,976 --> 00:19:41,448
Just how small
all our troubles are
in the scheme of things.

234
00:19:41,514 --> 00:19:44,116
How incredibly brief
our lives are.

235
00:19:44,183 --> 00:19:48,888
We have to try and make the
most of every moment because
we're given so few of them.

236
00:20:04,136 --> 00:20:05,672
(SIGHING)

237
00:20:21,288 --> 00:20:22,289
(SNIFFING)

238
00:20:23,490 --> 00:20:24,591
What is it?

239
00:20:24,657 --> 00:20:27,126
I'd recognize
that smell anywhere.

240
00:20:28,795 --> 00:20:29,796
(CHUCKLING)

241
00:20:32,098 --> 00:20:33,800
WOLVERINE: Well, well.

242
00:20:33,866 --> 00:20:37,970
If it isn't the guy who
put shoulder pads and
tights back in fashion?

243
00:20:38,037 --> 00:20:41,173
Yeah, well, I couldn't
miss another minute of
your, uh, witty repartee.

244
00:20:43,810 --> 00:20:48,348
The X-Men have received
a call for help
and we answer every call.

245
00:20:48,415 --> 00:20:51,518
Whether from mutant or human.

246
00:20:51,584 --> 00:20:56,055
Right now, there's a
young girl in Japan who
desperately needs us.

247
00:20:58,625 --> 00:20:59,659
Welcome back

248
00:21:00,627 --> 00:21:01,928
to the X-Men.

249
00:21:04,130 --> 00:21:05,765
(ENGINE FIRING)

250
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:17,877
You sure you're okay?
This ain't some crazy
death-wish, is it, Cyc?

251
00:21:17,944 --> 00:21:22,382
Huh, the lousy way you handle
that bike of yours and you're
worried about my driving?

252
00:21:22,449 --> 00:21:23,650
Yeah, yeah.

253
00:23:03,015 --> 00:23:08,154
STORM: With Cyclops back on
board, the X-Men travel to
Japan to find Hisako Ichiki

254
00:23:08,220 --> 00:23:11,057
and the truth behind
her disappearance.

255
00:23:11,123 --> 00:23:14,226
Their investigation uncovers
more than they bargained for

256
00:23:14,293 --> 00:23:18,798
when they run headlong
into the U-Men, a group
of anti-mutant fanatics.

257
00:23:18,865 --> 00:23:23,002
Fighting every step
of the way, the X-Men continue
their search for Hisako.

258
00:23:23,069 --> 00:23:26,272
A search that ultimately
leads them
to a horrifying secret.

259
00:23:26,338 --> 00:23:29,308
Next time on X-Men...
"U-Men."
