The symbolism of Scott slowly turning and sounding like Magneto during the interview, while Magneto is coming across more as Xavier in Genosha *JUST PERFECT!!*
And written in such a way that makes so much sense. This show is incredible!
Red cyclops red cyclops red cyclops
So much someone can take. Before they turn into something they didn't want to.
@@FlixCreEightR but needs to
Aaaah we are about to get revolutionary cyclops from the early to mid 2000s x men comics
I haven’t been this shocked and heartbroken at an episode of tv since The Red Wedding in Game Of Thrones. I was in tears throughout the last 5 minutes. X-Men 97 is officially the best Marvel show ever made!
Same, I was not expecting this at all. Watching in absolute awe the last 5 minutes. Wow, this was good.
I was getting Red Wedding vibes from this as well. However, unlike the Red Wedding, I do think Cable will be able to change some of the events where the X-men are not there when the annihilation of Genosha happens.
Tears, I tell you! Full on TEARS streaming down my face this episode😭😭😭
@@Michael33666 Don't get mad at us just because you're dead inside and were never loved as a child🤷♂️
@@Michael33666 This is far from a kids show!
The "I can't feel you" hurt when Wanda said it to Vision, it hurt even more hearing it from Rogue.
It gets worse. Lenore Zann, Rogue's VA, a few weeks before recording this episode she lost her niece to cancer, and she channeled those feelings into the ending.
@@Rixec2 oh wow, that’s so heartbreaking. It’s crazy to think how something so sad can help produce something so amazing.
Imagine finally being able to touch someone you love and it’s cuz they’re dead 💔 😣
@@henryflores3459 no bro Rouge cheated on him and why everyone the comment section supporting her she is the one first break his heart and kissed another man in front of him haa 😒😒 what a love 🤢🤢😂😂
As a Gambit and Rogue fan, this episode was ROUGH. I was crying at the end.
Yep
Been sad all day...grown 40 yr old balling me eyes out was not expecting this only 5 episodes in 😭😭😭😭
BEST EPISODE OF MARVEL TELEVISION EVER! Seeing Nightcrawler return with his original voice actor from the original 90s series was awesome! I really liked the story they told here with Rouge and Gambit here now that Magneto has kind of upended their lives and relationship. The action in this episode was also incredible! Seeing Nightcrawler and Gambit use their powers was so cool and I gotta add that they were represented visually spectacularly. NOW THAT ENDING WAS ABSOLUTELY INSANE! Cable?? The "Remember it" moment was crazy! Magento??? I'm losing my mind!!! 1000000/10 episode!!!! I need more now!
IT WAS MIND BLOWING!!!
If you're gonna copy/paste the same comment everywhere at least proofread it 😅
that would be Loki season two finale.. i'd give this top ten though so far anyway .. everybody always says this is the best episode ever only because it's new.. but yeah, it's in the top ten so far in marvel ..
Easily the best I have ever seen. Had to decompress after 😮😮😮😮
Daredevil doesn’t exist I guess, it’s definitely up there though
Whenever you see the silhouette of Uatu the Watcher, it's SERIOUS. A MOMENTOUS event is about to transpire. This is the most devastating episode in the history of the animated series, or all the Marvel 90s series.
Hell this was one of the most devastating events in the X-Men comics. It changed the status quo of the X-Men pretty much till House of M changed it again.
I’ve always told my friends that. If you read a comic and see the watcher some next level insane shit is going to happen.
"Oh, look its the Watcher. ... ........ oh....shit, its the Watcher.."
You see Uatu, shit is about to go down.
"How often must the scoundrel prove himself a hero, before he believes it himself?"
This episode had so many jaw dropping moments I couldn't believe. From Jean and Wolverine kissing,to Cyclops snapping on the reporter,to the reveal of Madeline and Cyclops's psychic Affair,to seeing Nightcrawler and Dazzler,Rogue and Gambit breaking up,Rogue and Magneto's dance and finally that final attack by the sentinels. This 1 episode surpassed the entire Fox Adaptation of the Xmen.
Scott was on point this episode. Love that they are making him what he is in the comics. A middle ground between Xavier and Magneto.
He's about to become ruthless and dark
@@bigzaeya9881 How it’s gotta be when you start dating Emma Frost. Haha
@@bigzaeya9881 Scott's heel turn will lead to x-men vs avengers
@@The-P-iz-Free his best moment for me. Nothing like kicking the Avengers ass, by himself and actually accomplishing his mission at the end.
The names gambit… remember it! I will sir! I will!!!
Dont forget the “mon Amie” ☝🏾😢
@@donnyouttheway4091 ☝🏾
16:06 That is not Josh Brolin who voiced Cable. Cable's voice actor is the original voice actor of Gambit in the original animated series. The producers had him voice Cable.
The way it sounded made it feel like Josh Brolin as Cable and I thought the EXACT same thing until I saw the cast! I wonder if this series later on if will do the insane and have it in the multiverse even though it’s considered a continuation of the original series from the 90’s!
@@theideamaker2561 Speaking of multiverse I think I saw an image of the Watcher in the sky of Genosha. Don't know if this is the Watcher from What If series but if he is then there has to be something insane that is going to happen.
@@bethovenrazul yup he is absolutely Uatu, Marvel animation title card shows connection to previous projects especially What If..?
Don’t forget about Mojo and his loss of dazzler
Mojo is not gonna be happy about losing his star attraction who was on a gig
I'm so glad someone else noticed The Watcher right away. This was a beautifully crafted episode.
Buckle up OMG!!!! This felt like Infinite War level 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The best episode so far I don’t know how they will top this
We can't wait to see how it all plays out.
i feel like we say that for basically every new episodes
@@warrustfr, let them cook.
@@TheMovieCouple magneto dead?
That’s exactly how the Genosha massacre went down in the comics…they even mixed in the Morlock Massacre from years earlier in there…whoever wrote this is taking me and a lot of others on an emotional roller coaster! Gambit being taken out was a head knocker! And notice as Rogue was holding Remy she was touching him skin to skin?. And hearing Rogue whimper in pain…one of THE toughest people, man or woman in the Marvel Universe…OMG!
She delivered that line beautifully. So gut wrenching.
Oh my God what is this? Invincible... I can't stop crying even writing this. I Am So Devastated. This is how you raise the stakes.
Most shows this would be their epic season finale. Naw...we're just gonna casually drop this in as episode FIVE of the season...
I didn't cry but I was tense during the last 5 minutes, Erick speaking German, Rogue ready to destroy that sentinel and then Gambit sacrificing himself to destroy that huge robot. The music, the score, the dialogues and the acting, all was ON POINT!! This episode is top one of the season so far. I can't wait to watch the next one.
I noticed the reference with Cyclops, Madelyn Pryor's psychic entanglement with Jean grey finding out, kinda like that whole drama with Cyclops, Jean, and Emma Frost from the comics. But this time, they switched it up with Madelyn instead of Emma. And Emma's knowing smirk? Total psychic power move, like she's got the inside scoop on everything
Hopefully not spoiling much, but Emma joins the X-Men like right after the genosha genocide in the comics. She survives because she develops a secondary mutation right at that moment.
Scott is probably going to end up with Emma again.
@@AzulApethe ways things should be, as cyclops is always right
@@microcelltechnicalassistence agreed, always right and I prefer him with Emma honestly.
@@AzulApe beau wrote season 1 and 2 and he already said he hates Emma so I doubt Scott and Emma will end up together
Omega Level Mutant he was talking about was both. The creators were being slick. Gambit true form is God Level up there with Nate Gray and Dr Manhattan almost
Wow... I never expected Disney to pull off an episode like this. Even the What If episodes didn't hit this hard, mainly because the main universe was fine so character deaths didn't matter. This was like the red wedding episode of game of thrones.
that's not disney, these are classic X-Men from before the 2000s.
@@krono5el it’s Disney my guy
@@DontaEllison if disney created those stories i'm mickey mouse.
@@DontaEllison Disney might be animating these stories, but they were written long before Disney bought Marvel.
There was the outline of the Watcher in the sky just before it all happened, so could still be a what if
And writer of the show said “episode 5 was just a warm up”
"End it right here" gave me a chuckle considering the rest of the episode. Also, it's Chris Potter (OG series Gambit) who's voicing Cable in '97.
Chris be like: reprise gambit? Naw. I wanna still be there when this serries end.
THIS SHOW IS A MASTERPIECE!!!
Gambit went out hard. Warrior’s death.
Yeah if you didn't know Cable is Nathan Summers and now you guys see him as Cable that means Bishop was able find his guy
He found the Askani
@@BrokenNoah or Forge
Didn't Cable appear in the original show?
@@Nikolaj11 yes but the future is always changing because characters like Bishop and Cable always go back in time to change things so the future and characters in the future aren’t always set.
@@rayparker4231 Oh I see. I wonder how Bishop can then so confidently travel back, any number of things could mean the future he returns to are entirely different.
20:26 This scene made me respect Gambit ten times more! Incredible! Absolutely incredible! RIP! 😔🙏🏽💪
I feel the same way. I always knew Gambit was good but holy crap he’s my favorite character now. This episode showed how powerful he really is and selfless at that. Top tier episode
@@chicagobreeze7257 Gambit is crazy he has great character development and his powers are insane omega level he had them removed cuz he was scared of it and couldn't control it. His new sun form he killed Phoenix in iy
This is such a tonal shift from last episode, but absolutely impactful stuff. I thought it was a good choice to have Scott lose control during the interview as it sets up the later events of the decimation of Genosha. Mutants have to try and appease humans time and time again, yet they are never truly accepted as an equal sapient being. It was honestly quite hard to watch the attack on Genosha as it felt like a real terrorist attack. So many feels and emotions. And I also loved the Scott/Madelyne storyline as they deal with the loss of Nathan. I completely understood the “mind cheating.” They both lost a son and Scott knows for sure that Madelyne was the one who carried Nathan in her womb for nine months. He has a lot of pain from when his father abandoned him, and being forced to do that with his own son was very traumatic for him. I think that psychic cheating with Madelyne made so much sense and is an example of a deviation from the source material that actually feels earned and opens up interesting possibilities. It feels so at home given this story. On another note, Wolverine showed a lot of maturity by telling Jean that she “just forgot the rules for a sec.” He didn’t take advantage of her at all. Good stuff. I’m not big on a lot of romance drama because it usually seems cheap, but I actually thought it was handled well here. Everyone made sense as to why they had such turbulent romantic feelings to the point where it felt earned. The X-Men is very soap operatic, so I get that it needs to be done. I thought they handled it well enough to not be annoying. Watching Rogue’s journey from lamenting not being able to touch Gambit to kissing Magneto and realizing that “some things are deeper than skin” to holding Gambit’s lifeless body in her arms was soul crushing 😭. She ended up losing both of her paramours. And Magneto speaking german to Leech as they were about to die 😭😭😭 This is some of the best work that Marvel has put out and hopefully the MCU can handle the X-Men like this. Can’t wait for the next episode.
I wonder if we are seeing the beginning of Scott taking a more militant approach to mutant and human relations like he did a couple of years ago.
@@mrlogan-ut2te I hope so. I loved revolutionary Cyclops. It was such a dynamic turn for the character that felt sensible to me. Especially since everything from Morrison’s New X-Men, and particularly House of M, led to his development into revolutionary Cyclops. The mid to late 2000s were filled with Scott being super pragmatic with making more cold, calculated, hard decisions. I definitely felt those shades during his interview outburst.
The writing in this episode is amazing too!!! From character to character, scene to scene ❤️
If this is possible with X-men just imagine Spider-man 98 if they did that.
@@hamhockbeans I know Spider-Man has a lot of fans but right now I’m amazed at how great this X Men cartoon is 🔥🔥
Roque want touch Gambit and she can touch Gambit. Poor Gambit, until die he doesn't know if Roque choose him than Magneto
The psychic thing with Madelyne happened with Psylocke. Might have happened with Emma Frost, also. Scott kept getting in trouble with telepaths with Jean being right there and catching him. lol
I wasn't expecting to cry when I watched this episode.
One of the writers commented on this specific episode that they were just cooking up with this episode and we're not ready for the rest of the seaon..😨..now I'm a little scared..😟. Especially since I believe there doing 2 storylines E for extinction mixed with operation zero tolerance.
One of the best shows on TV right now. I look forward to Tuesday nights every week!
The fact that y’all knew the cameo characters or other xmen comic characters in this episode made me subscribe
X-MEN 97 is WAAAY BETTER than the original series. The upgraded 🎨 art and storytelling was true to the comics with the real life complexities and high stakes implemented. This episode tone was high drama and dead serious. Just EPIC. 😮😊 Really loved this show.
Maybe Genoshas destruction is a fix point but maybe they can still save some people
What hit the most after G death and Rogues last words... Is that the screen goes black for few seconds with nothing but the ambient sound bass. Then it pops up low tone sad credits. The director of this episode is f amazing! 😢
16:07 That's actually the voice of Chris Potter, whom I couldn't recognize until he stopped yelling. He was the voice of Gambit in the original X-Men series.
I remember when Dustin mentioned how Master Mold in episode 1 was so easy to defeat lmaooo 🤣 I guess Master Mold T-1000 was in episode 5 and was taking out everything!! Omega level threat included!! 🤣
I love the way this show keeps me guessing and on the edge of my seat when I thought I knew what to expect. I do my hardest to avoid spoilers because I want to genuinely react in that moment as a fan because I feel I deserve that. This show has rewarded that approach.
They went so hard for it in this episode. Its definitely coming from the E for Extinction storyline from New X-Men. I think there maybe a time-traveling element, they'll probably be able to save some lives, but the Genosha genocide is probably going to be a fixed point in time. Everything was so devastating, including Gambit not getting the chance to know Rogue had chosen him.😭
Man this was chefs kiss. Marvel this is some of they're best work ever. They gotta renew this series its too good just for 10 episodes
It’s already been renewed for season 2&3
They really need to re-hire Beau De Mayo back before season 3 starts, So we can get this quality for future stuff
@@MysticTroll agreed!!!!!!
Magneto looking like Khan Noonien Singh in that flashback.
It was utterly mind-blowing.
If you watch closely it also connects to Iron Man TAS with characters Wanda Maximoff and James Rhodes showing up at the party in Genosha. Then the scene between Scott, Jean, and Madelyne is a comic book cover art with Jean finding out Scott having affair with Madelyne where she is furious and Madelyne showing that evil smile.
It’s Emma. Not Madelyne in the comics.
You missed out on the cameo of Beau DeMayo the showrunner and writer for this series. He has a quick appearance during the destruction of Genosha by Master Mold voiced by Eric Bauza. You also had cameo of Nightcrawlers father Azazel during the whole dance floor scene at the party.
That wasn’t azazel that was exodus, and azazel isn’t Kurt’s father, they’ve retconned it back to the original idea of mystique and destiny
@@k1a2r3n4 okay. So the flashback with Rogue with her mother was that Mystique disguised as her human counterpart?
@@Brook11223 yes that’s mystique, in the og show she never revealed her true form to rogue. Rogue only finds out in the end of S1 that mystique was actually her mother the whole
@@k1a2r3n4 I think Valerie Cooper could be Mystique in disguise.
@@k1a2r3n4To be fair, the retcon does still include Azazel's DNA as part of the whole thing.
So this means that Cable was the sand guy in Madelyn's vision in episode 1. This song was playing while she was using cerebro, and a man was saying sorry to her
It's her son.. Nathan who survived.. Why he says I'm sorry mom
What's more, "hab keine angst" were likely Erik's parents' last words. He said it just like them - knowing full well what would happen to him and very probably Leech. All the strife and work and he's brought to grief by genocidal monsters all over again. Damn. Just damn.
I also found it really symbolic that Magneto protected his people using a train.
@@ShadowyFox_86 And did it by using the train like a whip, in a land where mutants had been forced to work under slave drivers.
Don't know if any one mentioned it but Gambit in the comics eventually is also able to touch Rouge by using his powers to create a static sheild around himself and get married in the 2018 comics. Gambits powers are also supposed to make him an Omega level mutant put he had a cap put on his powers.
Yep. Ol' Remy was a bad individual in one universe, to the point of destroying the Phoenix Force. I'd be very tempted to put a damper on my powers if I knew that was a possible future.
Went from zero to Morrison in twenty minutes.
Claremont to Morrison to Krakoan era Hickman
Went from 16mill to zero in 20mins 😂😭😭
They are using the sound effects to the Martian War death ray from the 1953 War of The Worlds. Nice touch!!
As soon as the Godzilla sentinel turned up If you noticed when it fires it sounds like one of the aliens ships from War of the Worlds
Good catch on the watcher, did not see it. Awesome reaction. I ended in tears too ❤
And I just finished the days of future past audiobook this morning at work. So, this got me in the feels.
In the comic books the mass murder of mutants in ganocia is a fix point but the mutants who die isn't and just because someones dead doesn't mean they stay that way.
Even then the only reason the genosha mutants could be properly resurrected was a plam by scarlet witch 2 to 3 years into mutants having a go to death cheat code. So a bit more permanent.
Your reaction immediately after gambit goes out like a G, says it all. 😂😂😂😭😭😭 badass laughter celebration into a deep dark depression 😩😩😩
This episode broke my heart. I’m completely shocked at the end.
The original TAS was not this intense. You’re right.
This was the Red Wedding for teenagers 😭
By teenagers you mean us sad millennial oldies right?😂
@@deemccoy1482 Hey we're not old we're just...aging gracefully!
I was glad to see the connect to mutants we know plus some new ones. Calisto, Sebastian Shaw, Banshee, Nightcrawler, Dazzle, Multiple Man, Leech, and 26:06 ofcourse Nathen Summers (Cable). It will be interesting to see who stays and where we go from here.
the scoundrel finally proved himself a true hero
That OH NO came from the soul 😂
I have re watched this over and over and is when magneto look at Rogue that’s where the emotions start pouring .
The Watcher is all seeing and knowing but couldn't intervene. I feel Jeffrey Wright could voice him somewhere down the line. Also this looks like it will connect again to Lazarus rising from X-Men TAS during the battle with Apocolypse but introduce maybe another threat in the form of another mutant maybe Cassandra Nova. The way this augmented version of Master Mold was so indestructible says it can withstand Mutant attacks. Also Chris Potter now voices Cable instead of Gambit says he has dealt with this in his time.
Or Bastion considering Cable said HE and we did see a silhouette of Bastion with one the pic last episode
Don't think she's seen Cable before. I think she realizes that its Nathan grown up and he'd survived with Bishop until adulthood.
Jean saw Cable before, but neither her or Maddie knew he was Nathan.
They could've done it better....the moment Madelyn finds out Cable was Nathan.
The intro for this show is the greatest intro of anything ever created ever
still bawling.. wtf Marvel...
Nah.This the real marvel universe.I know a lot of you guys got introduced to marvel from the mcu.This is the stuff we've been reading for years.
@@toomuch535 If this was made by the people that do the MCU movies it will be full of cringe jokes and the deaths of Magneto and Gambit would lose all their emotional impact Don't compare the cringe MCU movies for literal toddlers to X-Men 97 cause the people that run X-Men 97 know how to do justice to the comic books
@@MONSTANIMATION Wth is you talking about. I'm talking about comics.But I'm going to push back. First off you guys wouldn't be on the internet if it wasn't for the mcu.And second why is you watching xmen 97.I thought you internet dweebs was done with marvel.You guys have to stand on business.You can't pick and choose.
@@MONSTANIMATION holy shit touch grass virgin ☠️
Cables VA in this episode is Chris Potter, who was Gambit in the original 90s show
"I'm excited to see what episode we get!" Famous last words
Seems like a combination of Master Mold and the Tri-Sentinel. The latter of which is technically a Spider-Man villain.
And Spider-Man had to get a Captain Universe upgrade in order to stop the Tri-Sentinel. No such luck here.
It was a wild sentinel
it's called "The Wild Sentinel Master Mold"
Sentinels have three main categories of expansion and evolution. 1 - the master mold- an oversized sentinel that also doubles as a production factory of new sentinels. If raw elements aren't handy they can make new sentinels one by one rather than via a production line. 2- sentinels Mark 1 to mark?- standard sentinel soldier mold made up of mini fusion engines analyzing / adaptive programming and plated nano- adaptive segments that lets it change for whatever threats it's dealing with 3 - nimrod series- 10th Mark level sentinel series with instantaneous adaptive measures/also set with a self-diagnostic / self-repair set of directives that lets it heal from massive damage. 4- wild sentinels- an offshoot of the original Master mold sentinel line their set adaptive measures were simply modified from "upgrade and adapt" to "make do with immediate environmental advantages". Whereas all sentinels Mark 1 and on all have the same size and weight ratios, wild sentinels rarely meet each other's standards, sometimes only displaying the bare basics of looking similar to a sentinel except that in these cases that are mostly razors, lasers, guns and bombs. They can be as small as nano sentinels or as big as an aircraft carrier and just because they don't look like the Mark sentinels or Nimrod or the master mold it makes them in no way any less dangerous; possibly more so in fact.
@jetlorider I admit, I somehow forgot about the wild sentinels.
even though im abit late, but i do notice, in the future vision of Jean/Madelyne in e1, we hear the latin lines from Happy Nation, which was used at the dance, before the Kaiju Sentinel attack
Lol and Ace of Base singing Happy Nation.. almost forgot about that 90's group.
You 2 are awesome. Definitely subscribing. This episode had me in tears AGAIN haha.
Awesome! Thank you!
I will admit when I first watched this I saw the Watcher, but entirely forgot the one rule of seeing him. If the Watcher is looking, it's because something crazy is about to happen. Totally didn't see it coming. Broke my heart big time. Still get choked up watching people reacting.
Ainda processando tudo que aconteceu 😢😢😢 melhor episódio
I was noticing from many reactions that at a certain still frame people missed the coolest tie in the watcher was watching this all happen spot is when the fireworks hit the sky you see him
Dustin caught it =)
@@TheMovieCouple great reflex he has with the eyes I almost missed it myself with everything going on and we know X-Men will be part of season 3 of what if so this is even more crazy knowing that
Yeah, Dustin caught it at first watch!! 💯 Impressive 🔥
This episode was insanely good! It was breathtaking, devastating and incredible! 🙏🏽
Cable was in the original series, in their take on Days of Future Past (which is why I don't think they'll undo this in that way), so Jean has met him before, which is why Madelyne recognized Cable. But at that time, Nathan hadn't been born yet, so it isn't until this episode, after Nathan gets sent to the future, that anyone recognizes that Cable is their son.
I completely missed The Watcher the first time I watched, good spot
Gambit always knows the odds
My dude is 4 steps ahead in the stories even talking about house of m, I love it!
GAMBIT SEE YOO BET AND RAISE IT!!!! ♠️♦️♣️♥️😭😭😭😭
If that's how gambit dies for real then he will go down as one of the most legendary cartoon/comic characters in my book.
A lot of people forget Gambit is an omega level mutant but he had mister sinister lobotomize him so that his power wouldn't spin out of control..in an alternate universe he's one of the more powerful entities in existence
Post surgery, they bring him down to an Alpha level mutant, I think? Can't say I blame him if the future he saw was a possibility.
Replacing Emma with Madelyne for the Grey/Summers psychic affair worked surprisingly well. I hate that Emma doesn't get her chance to shine though. She always works great as a foil to Jean. The good girl vs the bad. Fire vs Diamonds.
Well they didn't show her dead body this episode (only Dazzler next to Shaw), & the frantic pace of this series means we just might just get diamond skin Emma in the next episode. I mean, she develops her secondary mutation after the Genoshan Massacre. Also, WHY the F*CK did Magneto let Leech hug him?!?! He needed his FULL POWER to protect them all at that moment. Some other useless Morlock should've been holding Leech back. Or actually kick him unconscious (like Emma did in the comics) so his powers don't affect any mutant fighting for their lives at that pivotal moment.
@@JumpoableLeech wasn't affecting Magneto enough for the outcome to change. They were already dead. He just managed to hold it back a few moments.
I get the feeling time travel will be used to get everyone back and that to me will undo the consequences of this episode. The knock on Marvel for years was that no one ever really dies and stays dead and there is no way someone like Magneto for instance will stay dead.
Cable is being voiced by the original Gambit voice actor.
Love Gambit and Rogue so much this hits the heart hard big time bro😢
I hope J. Odell does a special "was that the Watcher?" montage in his compilation of reactors for this episode.
The insight you both have is very good and seeing things I do not is awesome. It makes me watch thing’s multiple times. Dustin The House of M would be so good to see. Thank you both for your reviews.
The last memory of magneto remembering the holocaust is what he needed to really snap
Incredible episode. And great reaction / analysis.
I nearly choked on my drink when you both said "They're gonna end the episode right here!" 😅
caught something ,, on the rewatch after a few times, of course not just one or two... but I caught something pretty significant if you watch the TV scene, you get that same helplessness, feeling that you did while watching the people die on 911.. of course it's fantasy, but it's a similar type of feeling I had while watching.. and I think I was right because if you watch the TV, you'll see two smoke piles, reminiscent of the twin towers , rest in peace cool Easter egg.. I actually lost my only child on that day when my wife miscarried 20 minutes after the towers fell... pretty interesting that they put that in
Lenore Zann went CRAZY with her delivery of that last line. Unreal performance
The fact that it's Bastion behind all this, I feel like we're going to find out Gambit is alive, and is now a Four Horseman of the Apocalypse, and it's going to set the stage for season 2.
Fans before the episode: "Ugh. Another week before Storm's conclusion? Just for a filler." Afterwards: "Wait. Storm is the pallet cleanser?"
According to the creators, this is just the warmup episode, it gets worse... 🥺
