Can you tell us your name?
JeanI... don't know. I can't remember.
[To Cyclops at lakeshore bench] Shall we continue?
Yeah. [Emma puts hand on Cyclops forehead initiating flashback of Charles and Scott at Jean's family house]
Him?
No, her.
[Comes down stairs] Charles.
Good morning, John. Hello, Jean. I'd like you both to meet a student of mine, Scott Summers. Jean, how are you feeling?
You saw what's going on outside. She's a mess.
Can you tell me why?
It's because of your old friend Erik. He came to visit her.
What did he say?
I don't know. She got scared and ran inside. She won't talk about it.
You must understand this changes everything.
What does he want?
He wants her on his side. Erik goes by Magneto now and he's assembling an army of powerful mutants.
Does that mean he'll come back for her?
Most assuredly. And next time he won't ask first.
He'll just take her.
Jean won't let him.
She may not be able to stop him.
John... I need more time with her.
JeanMy weekly visits aren't enough.
I'd like Jean to come and stay at the institute.
No, she's too young.
But you can't protect her like I can.
JeanDad, I'd like to go with them.
JeanYou know who I am?
What?
It would seem the puzzle is solved. She never contacted you because she doesn't remember you.
Jean. Jean. It's time for you to remember who you are. Lets wake up now, shall we?
JeanScott? Scott?
That's it. Let it all come back to you.
JeanScott!!
It's all right, Jean. Scott isn't here but he's fine. Everyone is fine.
JeanWhere am I?
You're safe. Just breathe slowly and relax. Now, do you remember who I am?
JeanYes. Yes. You're the one who helped me. You rescued me from...from Angel.
That's right. And now I want to help you again.
JeanWhy? What's happening?
Jean, you're in danger. And its not only your life that's threatened but the lives of everyone you love, including Scott's. Come with me and I'll explain.
Since the day you were born, there's been a power growing within you. That power so wisely pushes against the barriers Charles Xavier placed when you were a child.
JeanHow do you know about that?
I know everything about it, Jean. It's called the Phoenix Force. And it's been afflicting telepaths since mutants first emerged. This Egyptian tablet is over two thousand years old, yet it could be telling your story. as you can see, the Phoenix was present even at this baby's birth. As she grew, it grew until finally it reached maturity and took her over. Fires, floods, even sifts in climate. Throughout history, these events seem to coincide with the emergence of the Phoenix.
JeanAnd...people die?
Yes. Many.
[Jean is horrified]
JeanThis will happen again. With me, won't it?
Unless I can stop it.
JeanIs that possible?
If we can prevent the Force from igniting yes. And because psychic beings such as this need a host to survive, we believe it will perish without one.
Scott! Scott, wake up. Please, Scott. Don't leave me.
[Emma kisses Scott on the lips, but is thrown backwards and held by metal wires by Jean's telekinesis]
JeanYou'll pay for what you've done!
Jean, wait. We'll deal with her later. Right now, we have to stop the Phoenix.
If she goes out there, nothing will keep it from returning to her.
JeanAnd if it does, will that stop it?
Yes. For now.
No! That's not an option!
JeanScott, it chose me for a reason. I have to try.
Jean can't do this alone. She'll need my help.
You're not going anywhere near her.
[Scott and Jean leave, causing Emma to hang her head in sadness]
JeanScott! What are you doing!!? It'll kill you!
I'm not losing you again!
