Piotr talks to Kurt in the X-Men's chapel about his troubles. Scott and Emma drop by and tell him to go do whatever he needs to do to get over it. Piotr finds a Russian restaurant, but when trouble comes up he discovers someone from his past that he can't face. Meanwhile, Emma looks through Scott's mind, which features pretty much every attractive non-redheaded woman he's ever seen, to find out why she can't remember what happened at the Hellfire Cult. Madelyne continues recruiting for her Sisterhood, and Karma finds a disturbing report about the carnage in Alaska on the television.
