Synopsis for "X-Cutioner's Song Epilogue: Up and Around"
Late at night, Archangel flies Beast to the ruins of Harry’s Hideaway with tools and building supplies, and they set about rebuilding the pub. At Xavier’s School, Rogue sits alone on the roof, temporarily blind from her battle with Strobe. Gambit joins her even though she tells him to leave her alone. Elsewhere on the grounds, Jubilee is rollerblading when she comes upon Professor X, standing. At Harry’s, Beast teases Archangel as they reminisce about their student days. Xavier explains to Jubilee that his ability to walk has been temporarily restored as an after-effect of his infection with Stryfe’s techno-organic virus. She invites him to rollerblade with her. Rogue tells Gambit she wants him to hold and comfort her but then pushes him away because she cannot touch him without absorbing his powers and memories. Jubilee leads Xavier as they rollerblade, ultimately skating off a dock and into the lake. Back at Harry’s, Beast and Archangel talk and joke about their physical transformations as they finish up. A security guard catches them, but a counterfeit work order and holographic disguises as construction workers convinces him to let them go. On the school roof, Gambit wraps Rogue in his coat and reassures her. Professor X and Jubilee chat as they dry off. He thanks her for a fun time and begins to walk away. She sees him stumble as the after-effect wears off and helps him to his wheelchair.
