01x11 - Past Discretions

[bunniefuu]

Daddy?

No!

It's all right, Logan.

I'm here with you.

Charles, what have I done?

Wait. Take me back in, Charles.

I gotta see it all.

You've seen all I can show you.

But that man...

That little girl...

Are a mystery to us both.

We're working with
memory fragments, Logan.

Finding what they're
connected to will take time.

How much time?

I understand your
impatience. I do.

But your missing past is...

It's a quagmire.

If you step in,

there's no telling how
deeply it will pull you.

So you're saying I
shouldn't even try?

I'm saying right now you
are the leader of the X-Men.

Your focus must
be on the present...

And on the future.

But I have to know what I did.

And you will, in due time,

but until we learn
all of the facts,

it would be foolish to
go chasing after this.

Yeah.

I'll see ya, Charles.

Until next time, Logan.

Frost.

Yes?

Didn't think it was possible
to sneak up on a telepath.

I was just... I mean...

What is it you want, Logan?

I got something on my
mind I need to make sense of.

I could use your help.

I see. Hm.

What?

The professor has already
stirred those memories.

Does that mean he
couldn't... Wouldn't.

Well, then, by all
means, let's get started.

Honestly, Domino,

this is all harder than
I thought it would be.

What, the constant
running from the law?

The feeling you've
betrayed your friends?

The sight of Blob in
his spring collection?

You really look like someone
we can trust. Your turn.

I was going to put in some
target practice on the roof.

Wanna come?

Nah, you go ahead.

If I ever need to sh**t a
bottle cap from a mile away,

I'll just steal your powers.

Cheater.

I have earned
your respect, father,

I've proven myself
over and over,

but what you're asking me to
do now is nearly impossible.

So you're saying
you can't do it?

No, I'm not saying that.
Of course we can do it.

But after we pull it off,

I expect to be welcomed
back to Genosha.

One step at a time, Pietro.

Relax. Don't think
about anything.

Just let me take over.

I can see why you
are haunted by this.

So can you piece
it together for me?

The memories you
want are likely still there,

but the connections between
them have been severed.

Okay. So how do I put them back?

I could only suggest returning
to that place, the cabin.

That's the problem here, Frost.

I have no idea
where that cabin is.

From what I observed, it was
at the base of two mountains.

Oh, Little Women,
I love this book.

Okay. I need more
titles in the L category.

Bobby?

Hm?

Where are the Ls?

Sitting on them. Here, have a Q.

Ow!

I'm bored.

I mean, this is so dial-up.

All this stuff is online.

Au contraire, Mr. Drake,

only a small fraction

of literary properties
have been digitized.

Besides, who doesn't love

the feeling of a real
book in their hands, huh?

Let's see, Logan.

We'll want Geological
Formations.

Oh, and Outdoor Photography.

Ooh, The Land
Surveyor's Almanac.

Now, this one's a true classic.

Okay, let's start with

"twin mountains." Enter.

Hold it. That's it.
Third from the left.

: Twin summit peaks.

Up near the Canadian border.

Hm. "Reproduced from..."

A-ha. I do have this book.

Dr. Cornelius,

we have a situation.

Yes?

Weapon X has been
sighted in Zone 53,

the Nord property.

We've always known
this might happen.

Wolverine needs to
be eliminated now,

before he... No.

He represents a
substantial investment.

We're not through with him yet.

Then we should have
brought him in a long time ago.

As you are aware, he
is too dangerous to hold

and too valuable to destroy.

But if he remembers who
we are and where we are,

not to mention
what we did to him...

Let's first determine
how much he knows.

Bring in Sabretooth.

Uh...

Hi, Bobby. Is Logan here?

I'll take care of this, Bobby.

Go finish helping
Kitty in the library.

Hello, Rogue.

I must say I'm surprised
to see you here.

I really need to
speak with Logan.

Well, he's, uh...

He took off, didn't he?

Wouldn't say why,

wouldn't say when he'd be back.

Am I close?

I'm afraid you've
lost the privilege

of knowing his whereabouts.

Now, is there something
I can do for you?

Never mind.

I can pass a message on to him.

Don't bother. And do yourself
a favor, Hank, don't trust him.

Your target is a man
named Christopher Nord,

Mutant. Kinetic energy
absorption and redirection.

What's that mean?

It means drop him
fast or he'll drop you.

The guy's a regular maverick.

Where are you going, Daddy?

Just be a minute,
sweetie. Get to bed.

Nord has a daughter.
MAN Yeah, we knew.

Let's see. Kristy,
age six, likes horses.

Why wasn't I told about her?

Cause she's not the target,
runt, he is. Now move.

Daddy?

You.

I've waited a
long time for this.

Why?

I don't know.

You don't know?

I was six years old
when you took my father.

I need to know why!

I did come after your father,

but that's all I remember.

They wiped my memory.

I'm here to find answers too.

Way to go, runt.

Just couldn't leave well
enough alone, could you?

I've been waiting for this day.

Yeah? How long?

What's the matter? You
don't remember, Weapon X?

What did you...?

Complete your mission, Weapon X.

Are you out of your mind?

You're asking me to
make that girl an orphan.

Wait. It's not what you think.

Does this jog your memory?

Right!

Stay away from me and my family.

Do you understand?

Nothing would make me happier.

Like I said, a regular maverick.

No!

You did this. Why?

Because you didn't
have the guts to.

I had to clean up your mess.

You're still too soft, Weapon X.

We'll correct that
when we get back.

Daddy?

Nord!

You betrayed me!

You cared more about
that girl and her daddy

than your own partner.

Partner? Who did we work for?

Ha. The fact that you don't know

is all that's kept you alive.

Who are they?

Doesn't matter now.

This is between you and me.

Huh?

Oh, good morning.

Morning.

So you found what
you were looking for?

Some of it.

Hey, Frost.

Thanks.

The pleasure's all mine.

Perhaps next time
you'll come to me first.

Charles isn't the only one
who can help you, you know.

Yeah, I'll keep that in mind.

Logan, welcome back.

Good to be back.

You should probably
know Rogue was here.

She wanted to talk to you

and was quite upset
to learn you had left.

Huh.

Piece of advice
about that girl, Hank:

don't trust her.

Funny, she said the
same thing about you.

Wolverine doesn't remember
much, but he's starting to.

He will need to be dealt with.

I'll expect your full
report within the hour.

Yeah. I'll get right on that.

Hey, maverick,

quite a daughter you got there.

She's definitely someone
we'll want to look at.

Daughter?
