Anti-mutants activist Bolivar Trask abducts Wolverine and introduces him to his newest invention, the Sentinels. Meanwhile, Magneto wants to provoke all-out war between mankind and mutantkind and summons his Acolytes to create mayhem.
Tropes included:
- Foreshadowing: Professor X's attitude throughout the episode seems very Out of Character for him, with the next episode revealing exactly why.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Scott leaves the Xavier Institute both out of off-put by Professor X's behavior and refusing to team up with the Brotherhood.
