Sam, Shatterstar, Feral, Sunspot and Rictor engage War Machine in a battle which does more damage to Graymalkin than to each other. Professor alerts Sam that preservation procedures must be employed , but the only one to have access to the voice commands are Cable. Back on Earth, Warpath, Siryn and Boomer return to an empty base, save one External, Saul, who waits in ambush. Meanwhile in Illinois, Domino (who is here called Beatrice for the first time) and Grizzly enlist the help of Hammer, a wheel-chair confined, former associate who hates Cable. In Boston, Tina and Vanessa go into Cheers for a drink dressed like twins to have some fun. Lila Cheney returns to the battle scene to get the team out of there, but Sam and Roberto can not be found. They are in the main Engineering Command Terminal , pondering what to do about Graymalkin. Professor tells them they must sacrifice components of the station in order for him to remain operational. Professor also tells Sam there is a secondary override code, but he doesn't know who it belongs to. Sunspot convinces Cannonball to try his voice. It works ! Cable trusted all he had with Sam. In New Dheli, Deadpool raids a former safe house of Tolliver's for information on Vanessa so he can track her down and kill her. While Lila, X-Force, and Fury's team decide what to do, Cannonball and Sunspot continue the salvage mission. The armory and cargo bays are dumped on a path towards AZ so they can be useful. The last to go is the Time Displacement Unit which is dumped in the Pacific Ocean. Just as things begin to seem operational again, Professor sounds an alert, before the station blows itself apart.
