Tear Jerker / Hellions

• Madelyne Pryor's entire death scene is this. But special mention goes to her using her long-forgotten Healing Hands — a symbol of everything she used to be — on Alex.
  Madelyne: Y-you'll remember me...yes? I only wanted them to know...that I was a real girl...
• The finale... just, where do we start with the finale?
  • Orphan-Maker gets sentenced to the Pit of Exile for breaking Krakoa's law against harming humans, with Nanny going with him at her request. She sings to him as they're sealed into the pit together.
  • The Hellions fall apart, and even find themselves soured on Krakoa as a whole, feeling betrayed.
  • Empath is shown actually seeming to have begun a Heel Realization, continuing to exploit his emotion-controlling powers not because he enjoys it, but because he doesn't know how to live without doing so.
