Wolverine and the X-Men (2008–2009): Season 1, Episode 9 - Future X - full transcript
In the future, Professor X is captured by the Sentinels.
Pretty good detail.
Hard to believe
you lifted a memory
this clear out of my head.
Your newer memories aren't
difficult to access, Logan.
Just the older ones.
Now what was it you
wanted me to see?
Well, like I said,
I got the inhibitor collar back
and trashed their systems.
But right in the
thick of it, I saw this.
Master Mold? - yeah.
Whatever it is,
Senator Kelly's involved.
That's gotta be bad.
I would agree.
Hank can't find anything on it,
so I was hoping you
might know something.
No, I don't.
Sadly, the historical
records here in the future
are reduced to old newspapers
and damaged books.
I suggest you return
to Trask's facility
and find everything you can.
I'll try to learn more here.
Will do. You just watch
yourself out there, Chuck.
Wish you were here, Hank.
You always enjoyed research.
Mutant apprehension in progress.
Mutant apprehension in progress.
Mutant apprehended.
Alert. Unknown
energy source detected.
Unknown power source obtained.
Returning to facility 2-3-6.
No.
Cerebro.
There it is...
Trask industries.
So are we posing for
a painting here, Logan,
or do you actually have a plan?
Somethin' don't smell right.
With you, I would assume
that means literally.
I'm only catching the
scent of two people.
There should be dozens.
We're still going in, right?
Don't make me regret
bringing you, Forge.
You're here for
analysis only, got it?
Yeah, sure, of course. I got it.
But we're still going in, right?
The future's gotta
be easier than this.
Mutants...
Face me and prepare
for your inhibitor collars.
No.
Get away from me!
He's a telekinetic.
Transfer him to the tower.
I said face me, mutant!
That will be quite
enough, Colonel Moss.
Your inhibitor
collar is now active.
Thank you, Colonel Moss.
You may go about your business.
How'd you do that, old man?
He didn't activate your collar.
Hello, Sarah.
He didn't because
I asked him not to...
nicely.
How'd you know my name?
Where'd the Sentinels
get you, the badlands?
Is that where you were
hiding? What are your powers?
He's a telepath. How else
would he know your name?
That's impossible. There
are no more telepaths.
The Sentinels
wiped them all out.
Hello, professor.
My name is Bishop.
Wolverine told
me a lot about you.
What are you saying?
You know Wolverine?
He's the one who gathered
us and taught us to fight.
We're his X-Men.
I must see him. Where is he?
A few years back he saved
us from a Sentinel attack,
but got captured.
That's the last we
ever saw of him.
We put up a gravestone
at the institute
along with the others.
Wolverine was captured?
Is that hard to believe?
Nearly impossible.
But these are strange days.
I don't understand the
purpose of this place.
Why would the Sentinels
keep mutants alive at all?
They need us. We
just don't know why.
Mutants are taken inside
the tower one by one.
They never come out.
What about trying to escape?
That, my friend,
is why we're here.
We've got X-Men
waiting on the outside.
At dawn, we're breaking
every single mutant out of here.
Quite the risk, allowing
yourselves to be captured.
I didn't become an
X-Man to play it safe.
And besides, we
have luck on our side.
Hey. Hi.
Ta-da!
This is way too easy.
You're right, Logan.
Let's do it the hard way.
After you.
Well, I must say, Logan,
when you told us of your
charming little adventure here
I pictured it far
more populated.
Trask cleaned house.
Frost, scan the guards'
minds, see what...
I already have.
They didn't even know
the building was empty.
My first field op, I...
I didn't even get
to do anything.
Aw, don't worry. There'll
be other missions.
Next time I'm sure
you'll get to, you know,
do whatever it is you do.
Hope you're having better
luck than we are, Chuck.
So let me get this straight.
You've been in a
coma for 20 years,
but now you're awake
and you're using
your brain powers
to contact the X-Men in the past
to try and stop this
future from happening?
I wouldn't have summed
it up quite like that,
but yes.
You're crazy.
No way you're Charlie X.
I prefer that my students
address me as professor.
It may indeed sound ridiculous,
but Sarah is right.
And that's why I must
get inside the tower.
Marrow has you pegged,
old man. You are crazy.
Perhaps,
but the Sentinels took
something from me.
And if I don't get it back,
nothing you do will matter.
It's called Cerebro.
It's a tracking
system I created.
I use it to find
mutants in need,
to help them.
But if the Sentinels
could somehow access it,
there would be no running,
no hiding, no hope.
This is your fault.
Things were bad enough for us
and you bring a
mutant tracker into it?
Why didn't you just
smash that thing?
It's my only link to the past.
Forget the past.
You're here now.
And you've made
everything worse.
Sarah, wait.
Don't worry about her.
You know kids, here
and now is all that matters.
We can win this,
and getting Cerebro
back is the first step.
Domino, Kamal,
proceed as planned.
Get everyone out.
I'm going with the professor.
Thank you.
Don't let this crazy man
get in your head, Bishop.
You're our leader.
And he's Professor X,
the guy Wolverine listens to.
Your funeral.
I don't like this,
mind-controlled or not.
The Sentinels are in
charge here, not humans.
Moss executes his
tasks like a machine,
delivering mutants to the tower.
He doesn't even know why.
Thank you, Colonel Moss.
Colonel Moss has found Cerebro.
It's above us... Level 7.
I... Wait.
There's something
else here as well.
A mutant. Alive.
The Sentinel...
It just lifted the
cube telekinetically.
They've mechanically reproduced
that mutant child's power.
They're trying to evolve.
Master mold will
stop at nothing.
Master Mold? What is that?
It's the Sentinel
responsible for all of this...
The detention centers,
hunting us down.
That's why Logan
re-formed the X-Men...
To find Master
Mold and destroy it.
Error. Bio-unit compromised.
Brain wave patterns corrupt.
Switching to Sentinel mode.
Mutant apprehension in progress.
Get out of here, professor.
I can hold this one off.
Are... Are you
here to rescue me?
Actually, young
man... Julian, is it?
We could really use your help.
Observation: Energy
attack ineffective.
Adapting.
Vanisher, I thought
Domino's signal was
supposed to be a flare.
Eh, this works too.
Well, that looks bad.
Bad or lucky?
Who wants presents?
I... I just need a minute.
That's a minute we
don't have, Mr. Keller.
You can stop them.
I can't. I don't
have anything left.
We have to get out of here.
Mutants, stand down.
You have three
seconds to comply.
You can do this, Julian.
Don't be afraid.
Focus. Three,
two, one.
Well done.
Telekinetic shield detected.
Adapting.
Now how about we grab your
machine and get out of here?
Cerebro.
Julian, in the center there,
the core and the
helmet. I need you to...
Get Cerebro. It's
all that matters.
So it's on, right?
Yes, Berzerker,
it's definitely on.
Crazy old man.
Now, how are we
getting out of here?
Come on, their reinforcements
will be here in
about three minutes.
So it's imperative
you do not give up
looking for Trask's facility.
The Master Mold he's creating
is an artificial intelligence
that manufactures Sentinels.
It is a key component
in the coming war.
You learned all that
from an old newspaper?
Thank you, Sarah.
Sure thing, professor.
I'm glad you got
your machine back.
But with Master Mold
still out there hunting us,
things are sure to
get a whole lot worse.
And that, Bishop,
is what the X-Men are for,
in the past or in the future:
To prevent things
from getting worse.
Facility 2-3-6 has
been destroyed.
An unknown mutant
facilitated the escape
of 14 mutants.
Partial match found.
Subject: Mutant.
Designation: Charles Xavier,
telepath.
Orders: Capture...
Alive.
