Dialogue

Beast: Who was that you were arguing with? Where did Scott go?
Emma Frost: *Sigh* That was Nathaniel Essex.
Bishop: What in the world were you doing with Mister Sinister? You don't need me to tell you he's nothing but bad news.
Wolverine: Probably promised ya a nice little boost in power, eh?
Emma Frost: Not just for me, Logan. For all of us…

Emma Frost: We've been working together for months, holed away in the science labs you conveniently failed to reach when you infiltrated my academy last time.
Emma Frost: He promised an exponential gain in mutation potency and resilience - not just the end of regressive and deadly mutations… Mutant ascendancy!
Emma Frost: I saw his vision of a mutant utopia in the Battlerealm.
Gambit: Don't sound so bad ta me.
Emma Frost: It didn't to me either, until I found out how he's going to do it: he's been experimenting on the DNA of different mutants as a means to this "mutant parade."
Emma Frost: His latest subject is Alex Summers: Havok.

Emma Frost: You've no doubt noticed your powers seem to be… inhibited lately.
Bishop: We figured you had something to do with it.
Emma Frost: It's all Essex. His early tests on Havok are the cause, but it's only a matter of time before he conducts the full experiment.
Emma Frost: I kicked him out of my academy hoping to starve him of resources but a man of his intelligence with such a singular vision won't be slowed for long.
Gambit: Sounds like we oughtta just leave well enough alone. He said it'd be a "mutant paradise" and we's all mutants, ain't we?

Magneto: I will not stand by and watch Essex build a "utopia" on top of mutant bones. I will die before I see him succeed.
Beast: On that, Erik, we can agree.
Emma Frost: Looks like we managed to find something we all have in common. There is one more thing I must tell you --
Sabretooth: Not so fast. I think it's about time to put an end to this touching moment.
Magneto: Victor? What are you doing?
Sabretooth: Earnin' my paycheck.
Wolverine: Once a merc always a merc. You need to learn who to trust, Erik.
