Added DiffLines:

* TheBadGuyWins: Blob is ecstatic that the Brotherhood actually won for once.


Added DiffLines:

* ButtMonkey: Poor Toad. When he asks if that's really Mystique, he gets thrown out of the room. When Boom-Boom tries to give Mystique a "surprise," it gets tossed to Toad instead.
* ContinuityNod: Mystique knows about [[Recap/XMenEvolutionS2E9Joyride Lance's attempt to switch sides]].
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes:
** Pietro does try to reach out to Wanda and reach an understanding, though some of this is clearly motivated by fear. She does at least ease off on him, saving her rage for their father.
*** Later, Pietro insists to Mystique that this isn't the case between him and Magneto on the grounds that he's been a lousy dad. Later episodes indicate, though, he's lying.
** Avalanche tells Kitty to leave before the fight starts.
* ItsAllMyFault: Xavier blames himself for the loss, saying he didn't properly train the team to deal with threats like this.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: As Wanda disrupts everyone's powers, Jean calls for the retreat.
* LampshadeHanging: Mystique's return to the house sees her point out how the Brotherhood has gotten lazy this season and not even tried to hone their skills.


Added DiffLines:

* OhCrap:
** Pietro when he sees Mystique's new secret weapon is his sister.
** The moment Wanda enters the battle, Spyke remarks, "Bad vibe."
* OnlySaneMan: Pietro points out how volatile Wanda is and how Mystique is playing with fire.
* ProperlyParanoid: Mystique questions where Pietro's loyalties lie, especially since he's sided with Magneto against her in the past.
* RelativeError: As Wanda attacks Pietro and tears the place apart, the others ask if she's an ex-girlfriend. Pietro says worse: his sister.
* VillainDecay: The episode is largely about how the Brotherhood went from a threat in Season 1 to a bunch of pathetic slackers that the heroes routinely laugh at in Season 2. Mystique openly condemns this development and ensures they shake it off.

* ALessonInDefeat: When the X-Men first fight against the Scarlet Witch who completely trounces them. While the team comes out of it okay, they are a bit shaken by the encounter and Xavier muses this defeat may have been good for them in order to grow stronger.

* BedlamHouse: Wanda was abandoned at one of these by her father when she was just a child. As a result, all she can think of after being broken out is getting revenge on him for leaving her there.
