Synopsis Xavier mentally influences Cyclops to come meet him in a secluded spot, which angers Scott. He is angrier still when Xavier wants to probe him as a result of what he learned sharing Mr. Sinister's mind. Meanwhile, Rogue returns to the deseted Australian Outback town that the X-Men used as a base for a while in order to get solitude and sort things out, and Sebastian Shaw prods the Hellfire Club towards re-establishing itself along its traditional lines.
