Synopsis:
Gideon prepares himself and has his agent, Eve, proceed as planned. She gives her boss, Emmanuel DaCosta, some poisonous coffee, and he dies from it. Meanwhile, Cable and Cannonball train in the Danger Room, where Sam tries to shut the volume of his blast field down. But he fails. Elsewhere, Boom-Boom and Rictor are arguing about the fate of the missing Wolfsbane. Rictor wants to go find her, but Tabitha doesn’t, fearing that they might end up killed or captured. Suddenly, Cable is attacked by a hired assassin named Deadpool, who Tolliver hired to kill Cable. They fight, and Deadpool manages to defeat most of the New Mutants, including Cable. However, they are rescued by Cable’s associate, Domino. Later, they go over the roster of former New Mutants members, but unfortunately, neither Cable nor Domino finds them good enough for the team. But Cable promises to have already taken some steps in changing that. Later that night, Rictor leaves the basement unseen, in search of Rahne, but has left a note for Tabitha. Again later on the same night, Sunspot is woken up by Gideon, with whom he is acquainted, who informs Bobby that his father is dead.
