Summary

  Remy takes the team dancing in his favorite jazz club in New Orleans. Nathan isn't into it: he thinks mutants should keep a lower profile. Remy is suspicious of him, saying his attitude changed in Moscow (iss. 383). Jean and Nathan both miss Scott, whose body was never recovered.

  Jean gets a telepathic call from Lee Forrester, captain of the fishing trawler Arcadia, who has had brief romances with Scott (iss. 144), Magneto (iss. 148), and Nathan (Cable 12-14). She is now caught in Hurricane Sam, so Ororo takes Nathan and Rogue to rescue her.

  Remy hints to Rogue to be careful of Nathan, but she just gets frustrated with his obscurity.

  An Air National Guard plane in the storm gets hit by lightning, and Ororo is knocked out by flying debris. Rogue has Nathan continue to Lee's ship while she swoops down and catches her, then gets hit by a wave and is forced to steal part of Ororo's power so she can make it to the Arcadia.

  The storm breaks the windows in the ship's wheelhouse, and Nathan uses his TK to keep out the sea and breaks off his telepathic link to Jean, who has been monitoring with Hank and Remy. Rogue holds up the mast until the crew can weld it in place and announces that they are mutants and X-Men.

  Nathan telepathically projects to the damaged plane to guide them toward the ship. Rogue checks on Ororo, thankful that the X-Men have taught her to hope rather than despair, then flies and catches the plane, while Nathan makes a TK tube so the flight crew can slide down to the ship.

  Ororo recovers and says their only hope is to get to the hurricane's eye, so she, Rogue, and Nathan use their powers to cut through the worst of the storm.

  Rogue, pushing the ship, gets caught in the undertow and is in danger of drowning when she sees a light and goes toward it. She thinks she sees Scott, but it is Nathan. She thanks him, and he hints that he saw Scott, too. Rogue's hopes are raised.

  They make it to the eye. Nathan points out to Rogue that they still need to lift the trawler up and over the storm to safety. "Piece o' cake, Sugah."
