Plot Summary
After the mansion explodes, apparently due to an attack targeted at telepaths, Professor Charles Xavier and Jean Grey are missing (The cause of the explosion is later revealed in Episode 20). The X-Men disband and Scott begins to suffer from depression. One year later, the MRD (Mutant Response Division) is starting to contain mutants causing Wolverine and Beast to get the X-Men back together. Emma Frost is able to locate a comatose Charles on Genosha in the care of Magneto. Professor X from twenty years in the future telepathically orders Wolverine to lead the X-Men and set out to save the world from The Sentinel Project and prevent the Brotherhood of Mutants from taking over the world before the future ends up a bad one.[1]
