The X-Project

Pete meets with the local Iraqi military commander to try to keep the peace long enough for the team at the camp to contain the situation.

( Though all the kingdoms turn to sand... )


After resting for the night, Wanda, Marie-Ange and Amanda go forth to cross the underground river they'd found, and of -course- the river doesn't stay shallow. That would make things easy.


( And fall into the sea )

Doug, on the other hand, is still at camp. Still beset upon to translate everyone to everyone else, and it's getting worse, not better. Now the effect has spread outside the camp, and the Iraqi troops nearby take great offense to losing their ability to communicate.

( Tell me, how much longer? How much longer? )

Remy does what Remy does best - uses the connections from his past to piece together enough information to figure out what is going on.

( And though you hold the keys to ruin )

Finally reaching the center of the ruins, the women find the remains of a huge round room. It could even be described as tower-like. They also find their culprit, and he is somewhat upset to meet them. He's also rather fanatical. Sadly for him, he's also rather inept at fighting. Amanda breaks a Device, Wanda breaks a Phone and Marie-Ange gets to kick some Butt.

( Of everything I see )

The problem of the bomb remains. What do you do when you've got a bomb, no way to move it, and no combat engineers or explosives ordinancepersonnel to disarm it? You call an expert.

( With every prison blown to dust... )

Alone, bruised and with no way to fuel his power, Mark finds himself seemingly trapped. And then he is saved, by the power of a capella Beatles.

( My enemies walk free. )
