Jean Grey quotes from X-Men: Evolution

Jean

Yeah, well, Scott's cool. He'll handle it like a group leader should.

Jean

Or not.

Jean

Sorry, Professor, but I have to do this. Linking with Cerebro will help me even the odds.

Kitty, I pushed you to this, I know. I wanted to pretend nothing was wrong. I'm not perfect. I'm learning just like you are.

Daddy?

Avalanche

Forget them. Come on, I'm bringing this place down!

Jean Grey

You called your gift a curse. If you go with him, I guarantee it will be.

Shadowcat

Scott seems so, like, together! So cool and he's kinda cute.

Jean Grey

Cute?! Stiff - maybe, exacting - definitely, but... hmm... [looks at Scott] You know, from a certain angle...

It's really not so bad, Mrs. Daniels. Having special powers can be pretty cool sometimes.

Oh yeah! I'll tell you what, Shades! Let's see what you've got that's so cool!

Evan!

Sorry, Mom.

Jean

No really, it's okay. It's just that Scott's powers aren't really what you'd call 'indoor-friendly'.

Okay, whatever. Look, man. I like it right here and I'm not going to some home for freaks! Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some school stuff to take care of. (goes upstairs)

Evan!

Jean

Well, that went well!

Yeah. And I thought we were really making a connection there.

I apologize for my son, Mr. Summers. He's obviously dealing with a lot right now. I'll talk with him.

Jean

(using her power) Hey! He's going out the window.

Cyclops

Hey! Watch the tail! (jerks Kurt off of table) Now, see? That's exactly what I'm talking about --

Nightcrawler

You pulled my tail, man!

Cyclops

Grow up, Kurt.

Nightcrawler

Hey, lighten up, dude!

Cyclops

You're always goofing around!

Nightcrawler

And you're seriously cramping my style!

Cyclops

Listen.

Nightcrawler

No, you listen! There's a sound I want you to hear, and it's-

Cyclops

[To Jean and Evan] Blew it, didn't I?

Jean Grey

Oh yeah.

Spyke

Totally.

I need to lighten up! [Jean and Kitty gape in shock]

Jean

Oh, not you Scott!

[giggles] Check his temperature! [places her hand on his forehead to check his temperature] Mr. Military's gone soft!

Ok! So we go home, suit up and run a level 3 Danger Room simulation!

Jean

[groans] Scott!

[groans] Give us a break!

Nightcrawler

[leans forward] See this is what I mean! Too serious!

Psych!

[giggle]

Nightcrawler

[smiles] Very nice! There's hope for you yet!

Tell me about it on the way to Matthew's party!

[grumbles] I still can't go! [folds her arms] I'm, like, a freshman!

[places his arm around her shoulder pulling her in for a hug] You're also one of the X-Men!

Jean

[places her hand on Kitty's shoulder making the scene look like a mom, dad and daughter scene] Don't worry! We'll make it happen!

Jean

Which one of your guys has been putting on weight? I can hardly hold you!

Cyclops

It's Nightcrawler. Burgers seven days a week will do that to a fella.

Nightcrawler

Ah, the breakfast of mutants.

Better say your farewells 'Sumner', Cause you guys aren't coming back.

Oh, you got something in mind 'Rock Tumbler', cause I...

Jean

Scott! What do you think you're doing?

What?! Nothing! I'm just fed up with those delinquents getting away with everything while we're stuck playing by the rules!

Hey! We don't need our powers to beat you!

Aw, fine then. We'll all play it straight and you know what? We'll wave to you from the top!

Jean

Good. That's the deal. We're all competing fair; no powers, and I personally am very proud....

It felt kinda right, didn't it?

Jean

What?

Us and them fighting alongside? Why can't they just stop drawing battlelines in the first place?

Jean

Well, it's like what Logan said, "You can't control the will of others."

Well, they'll come around. And you can be their conscience. You're pretty good at it.

Jean

(playfully pushes him) Oh... shut up ... (giggles a little bit)... even good guys need a nudge once in a while.

Jean, whenever you think I need it, nudge away.

Jean

Yeah, at least he gave us a choice. Survival training here or with Wolverine.

Rogue

Some choice.

Shadowcat

[Relieved] Whoa. [Confused] What's going on? How did we get here?

Wolverine

[Massaging his injured shin while sitting] Yeah, sure, now you're all better.

Cyclops

[Crouches down to help Jean up] [To Jean] Easy, Jean.

Jean

Scott?

Cyclops

I'm right here. Everything's okay.

Rogue

[Realizes that Mesmero is gone] Hey! Where'd he go?!

Beast

[To Charles] Are you all right? Did Mesmero hurt you?

Not Mesmero, Hank. Mesmero was just another puppet like Jean. There was someone else pulling the strings: A mind more powerful than anything I've ever encountered.

Wolverine

[To Charles] What could he possibly want with those rings?

I really don't know, but I doubt we'll like the answer.

Shadowcat

[To everyone else] Now what? The institute's gone, the professor's missing, we can't go back to school, and it's open season on mutants.

Nightcrawler

[To Shadowcat] Well, look at the bright side, no homework.

Jean Grey

[Approaches Cyclops] [To Cyclops] Scott, it's not all your fault.

Cyclops

Yeah, right. Face it, Jean, I blew it. I gambled and I lost. Without Mystique, there's no way to find the professor.

Wolverine

[Approaches Cyclops and Jean] [To Cyclops] Hey, if you hadn't have done it, I would have. We'll find him without her.

Storm

[To everyone else] But right now, we have a world out there to worry about: A world that fears us. Somehow, we must teach them that we're the good guys, before it's too late.

Jean

[To Charles] Professor! [To the technician] Is he all right?

Yes, he'll be fine. We had no idea.

Cyclops

[To the technician] Just get him out of there.

[Types on the keyboard to open the tank] I don't understand how anyone could get Juggernaut out, let alone get Professor Xavier in.

Rogue

That's Mystique.

Jean

We've learned never to underestimate her.

Wolverine

[To Cyclops] Good job. [Cyclops nods]

Cyclops

Easy, professor. Everything is gonna be okay.
