Summary

  After weeks, they can't find Hulk. Kevin complains to T.J. till Wolverine walks in. He overheard T.J. saying everyone was going to die.

  Clarice doesn't want Calvin near Hulk, but he's got a suit to protect him from gamma radiation; Clarice has Box pull its arms off to prove her point.

  Shaman takes Thunderbird to a beautiful cliff for lunch, but he has no sense of taste. Shaman asks him about the marks on his face; he says they're retractable battle plates, so Shaman asks to see him retract them. He's a mass of technological fibers underneath.

  Hulk comes across them and asks if scientists did that to him; the two Johns offer to take him to a place where soldiers and scientists can't bother him. Deadpool and Sabretooth, annoyed that Hulk isn't being beaten into submission for them, shoots him in the head to make him berserk; Thunderbird punches him while Shaman sends up a flare.

  Mac is angry that Wolverine sent the junior Flights to Australia to help the Fantastic Four and Namor; he wanted them out of harm's way, while Alpha Flight faces certain death. Heather points out that reducing their battle strength might cause their deaths, and then they're alerted to Hulk's location.

  Shaman tries to calm Hulk while he pounds on Thunderbird, who finally goes berserk himself and puts Hulk down. Then Shaman has to calm him.

  The Weapon X team is about to move in when the Exiles teleport there, and Sabretooth recognizes Clarice as his Clarice (see Astonishing X-Men).

  Alpha Flight puts Hulk in a tank for study, and the Johns say their farewells. At a club, Calvin convinces Northstar to let him mimic his power; Northstar thought he wanted a date; the others dance, with Kevin morphing to John Travolta.

  Sabretooth has a Tallus and doesn't understand why his team is leaving even though the mission failed.
