Cyclops and Jean Grey, enjoying their vacation, are interrupted by Ruckus, who tears their ship apart with his supersonic screams. The rest of the Nasty Boys ambush the pair, and slip the power-dampering collars on them, while Mister Sinister introduces himself. Rogue and Beast, back in New York City, sneak into the hospital where Storm is. Rogue feels remorse over not staying with her, and then blames Beast. A doctor eventually comes in and notices the two standing by Storm, rushing away to get security. At the Friends of Humanity rally, Graydon Creed brings out Jubilee, and the group plan on murdering her. Wolverine bursts through a skylight and takes out the men, saving Jubilee and escaping.
