- Wham Episode: Rogue's new friend Risty is revealed to be Mystique in disguise.
- Wild Teen Party: The younger members of the team have one of these after they lure Scott and Jean out on a drive together. And then a gamer almost destroys the mansion when he hacks into Cerebro, thinking it’s a fancy computer game.
