Tuxedos can be camouflage too. Logan and Scott wait in the foyer for the rest of the team. Logan wants to run over the Plan once more. Scott's possibly a little overly tense.
( You didn't listen the first time in the Situation Room? )
At the Hellfire Club, the team mingles a little, as the plan requires, before making their move.
( Skipping the champagne. )
The team makes a quiet entry into the living quarters - and a less quiet entry into Jean's suite. Ororo and Logan distract flunkies while Scott goes for the bedroom. The flunky-distraction gets a little messy.
( Who the hell do you think you are, barging in here like this? )
Elsewhere on the floor, Sam watches the elevator via which reinforcements would arrive. They do, and he takes care of them quite handily.
( Nothing like a good pair of boots. )
Kurt, standing guard at the top of the stairs, is very disturbed by all the noise, but stays at his post. He finds himself dealing with a determined young woman with a very familiar mutation.
( What's going on up there? )
What happened when the bedroom door closed? Matthews gets a well-deserved punch in the face, and Scott and Jean get a little violent.
( They'd done this before. )
Contact, and Scott finds himself in his wife's mind, faced with no clear path and a very dangerous decision. In the end, however, Jean's decision is the important one.
( No matter where you go, I will find you / in the place with no frontiers. )

Scott and Jim, Saturday night

While Charles is in with Jean, Scott is pacing the hall outside, suffering from some unexpected aftereffects of what happened in Jean's mind. Jim, at the Professor's request, comes down to talk to him. The conversation winds up helping Scott - eventually - but isn't quite such a good thing for Jim. Sometimes the parallels can be too close for comfort.
