Summary

  Betsy, having sensed something wrong with Remy, psi-armors herself and investigates his mind. They are in New Orleans; he detects and grabs her angrily, snapping them both back to reality.

  Gene Nation claims to be descended from the Morlocks (drowned in iss. 293) and wants vengeance on humanity. Charlotte tries to arrest them, and battle ensues. Logan detects many scents on Vessel; he says he can absorb psionic energies and use the power.

  Sam blasts Sack away from Charlotte but then starts getting absorbed himself. He constricts his blast field to himself only, then smashes with Sack into a nearby building. Vessel attacks Graydon's rally; Hank arrives to save Graydon from a tossed rock; he's not thankful. Logan goes feral on Vessel, having realized that attacking him can release the life energies of those murdered in the disco. Ororo brings down lightning to finish the job. Graydon is frightened by the display of power; Hank says it's not the power but what you do with it.

  Rogue and Bobby walk to the nearest town: Millstone, AZ. Bobby is still seeing visions of the White Queen. Rogue tells the waitress to say hello to Grey Crow, who was Remy's friend. Bobby calls Emma to demand some answers, but she refuses to pick up the phone.
