Beast records his analysis of Jonas's abilities and what he's pieced together of his past. Meanwhile Jonas talks to someone we cannot see about what caused him to be buried alive.

Various X-Men and students try to cheer up Colossus, who is still mourning the apparent death of Kitty Pryde. Nothing works, until he is walking by himself in the park and a little girl asks him to rescue "Kitty", her cat who has gotten stuck up a tree.
