The episode opens 1 year ago as we see a 16 year old Scott Summers walking into the high school bathroom. He goes up to the sink and starts trying to wash his face off as his eyes start glowing red. He runs out of the bathroom and then out of the school where he drops to his knees and beams start coming out of his eyes into the sky as his brother Alex comes over to help but gets pushed back. Everyone starts running as the cops show up but can't stop whatever is happening. We cut to the next day as Scott eyes have cooled down and he is in a small room with his mother, his father, and a mutant specialist who tells them that Scott is too dangerous of a mutant to be left without supervision. Scott tries to tell them he'll try to control it but out of fear Scott's parents send him to a special mutant control center where he meets two mutants named John Allerdyce and Sean Cassidy and the three end up becoming friends. Over time Scott is put through extreme exercises to make sure he doesn't lose control of his powers anymore. 6 months after being put in this center a man named Charles Xavier pays a visit to this center and talks to Scott's parents who give him full custody over Scott. The episode ends with Scott going with Charles to X-Mansion and meeting Jean Grey as well as Eric Lensherr.
