  • Alternative Character Interpretation:
    • When Logan is having difficulty healing, Morph shapeshifts into Jean Grey to say "I love you.", leaving it ambiguous whether Morph was just telling him what he needed to hear, Morph making an Anguished Declaration of Love, or both. The dialogue beforehand doesn't clear it up. However, Word of God seems to later confirm that Morph meant it.
      Morph: She can't say it, but I can.
    • Cyclops comes to Logan's bedside after Magneto rips the adamantium out of him and tells him "Don't you dare break her heart.." Most people assume that "her" is referring to Jean. He could be referring to another woman very close to Logan... Jubilee.
  • Captain Obvious Reveal: It's not really a shock that the man with red eyes and blue lips is future mutant supervillain, Apocalypse.
  • Shocking Moments: The episode ends on a doozy of a Cliffhanger. The X-Men and Magneto save Earth from Asteroid M, but they're somehow scattered throughout time as a result, leaving Cyclops and Jean to meet a young Nathan in the far future while Xavier, Magneto, Beast, Rogue, and Nightcrawler encounter En Sabah Nur, better known as Apocalypse, in ancient Egypt, and Jubilee, Sunspot, Forge, and Cable remain in the present while Wolverine, Storm, and Morph are currently MIA. Meanwhile, The Stinger shows Apocalypse in the remains of Genosha with the implication that Gambit will come Back from the Dead as one of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
