"Da--Professor Lehnscherr--Edie's dad--he's, um. He's a holocaust survivor. I have no reason to expect you to know what that means, but it's really bad. He saw his mother get killed right in front of him because he hadn't mastered his abilites yet. Edie was literally given that name because he had nothing else left of her. If we could get her back that would be--that would be huge."

"I can't. Need Jane. Or Shell Bell or somebody else for go Downside. But when someone find me can put world there, get people if it okay - has to check for okay, otherwise scaring everybody and too many people all suddenly."

"The world handled the sudden public existence of mutants less than two decades ago," Edie says, composing herself. "Not without some amount of friction, but we handled it."

Permalink

"So maybe they say fine have all people wanting however many," shrugs Pen. "But having to check."
