• Wasp contacts Professor Grey (Jean’s dad) about the location of his daughter. Professor Grey does not know his daughter's whereabouts, nor the location of the X-Men and divulges nothing.
• The X-Men are revealed to have holed up in a safe house on Pier 88 in New York City (one of 5 safe houses that they possess).
• Xavier contacts Moira MacTaggert about the evacuation of the Muir Island facility. She reveals that the process is complete.
• Wolverine and Shadowcat return from the Savage Land expedition. Wolverine reports that Cyclops died during the mission. The X-Men embarked upon this mission in Ultimate X-Men 23 and 24.
• Magneto attacks the Triskelion, deletes the files regarding him on the hard drives, and kneecaps Quicksilver in retaliation for his betrayal.
• Xavier contacts the Ultimates to explain his actions and to attempt to clear the X-Men’s name. Captain America states “no deals” and refuses to listen to Xavier's argument.
Notes:
- Senator Turk pushes the President to restart the Sentinel Initiative.
- Captain America references that he recognizes Wolverine as Jim Howlett. Cap says he was a “Special Forces hotshot from Toronto” and that they did a couple of air-drops together in the summer of 1944. The squad referred to him as lucky Jim.
- During Magneto’s attack of the Triskelion, it is stated that the Ultimates have been searching for Magneto for 48 hours.
- The President of the United States is identified as "President Bush”
