Wolverine: Now look, kid, I don't need advice on auto...

[car crashes]

Rogue: The first boy I ever kissed ended up in a coma for three weeks. I can still feel him inside my head. It's the same with you.

Wolverine: There's not many people that'll understand what you're going through. But I think this guy, Xavier, is one of them. He seems to genuinely want to help you. And that's a rare thing, for people like us. So... what do you say, we give these geeks one more shot?

[Marie smiles a little]

Wolverine: C'mon, I'll take care of you.

Rogue: You promise?

Wolverine: Yeah... Yeah, I promise.

Magneto: Why do none of you understand what I'm trying to do? Those people down there- they control our fate and the fate of every other mutant! Well, soon our fate will be theirs.

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Where are you going?

Wolverine: To find her.

Storm: How?

Wolverine: The traditional way: look!

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Ah, Logan. I'd like you to meet Ororo Monroe, also called Storm. This is Scott Summers, also called Cyclops. They saved your life. I believe you already know Dr. Jean Grey. You are in my School for the Gifted for Mutants. You'll be safe here from Magneto.

Wolverine: What's a Magneto?

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: A very powerful mutant. He believes that a war is brewing between mutants and the rest of humanity. I've been following his activities for some time. The man who attacked you is an associate of his called Sabertooth.

Wolverine: Sabertooth?

[looks at Storm]

Wolverine: Storm.

[looks at Xavier]

Wolverine: What do they call you? "Wheels"? This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Students.

[looks at Cyclops]

Wolverine: And Cyclops, right?

[grabs Cyclops]

Wolverine: You wanna get outta my way?

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Logan, it's been almost fifteen years, hasn't it? Living from day to day, moving from place to place, with no memory of who or what you are.

Wolverine: Shut up!

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Give me a chance. I might be able to help you find some answers.

Wolverine: How do you know?

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: [telepathy] You're not the only one with special gifts.

Wolverine: You going to tell me to stay away from your girl?

Cyclops: If I had to do that, she wouldn't be my girl.

Wolverine: Well, then I guess you've got nothing to worry about, do ya, Cyclops?

Cyclops: It must burn you up that a boy like me saved your life, huh? Gotta be careful. I might not be there next time. Oh, and Logan - stay away from my girl.

Wolverine: What did she do to me...?

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Whenever Rogue touches someone, she takes their energy: their life force. In the case of mutants, she absorbs their gifts for a short while; in your case your ability to heal.

Wolverine: Felt like she killed me...

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: If she held on any longer, she could have.

Wolverine: How is she?

Dr. Jean Grey: She's fine.

[pause]

Dr. Jean Grey: I think she's still taken with you.

Wolverine: Well you can tell her... my heart belongs to... someone else.

Dr. Jean Grey: I think you'll be comfortable here.

Wolverine: Where's your room?

Dr. Jean Grey: With Scott, down the hall.

Wolverine: Is that your gift? Putting up with that guy?

Dr. Jean Grey: Actually, I'm telekinetic. I can move things with my mind.

Wolverine: Really? What kind of things?

Dr. Jean Grey: [shuts closet doors behind him with her mind] All kinds of things. I also have some telepathic ability.

Wolverine: Like the Professor?

Dr. Jean Grey: Nowhere near that powerful. But he's teaching me to develop it.

Wolverine: I'm sure he is. So read my mind.

Dr. Jean Grey: I'd rather not.

Wolverine: C'mon. You afraid you might like it?

Dr. Jean Grey: I doubt it.

Cyclops: All right, we can insert here at the George Washington Bridge, come around the bank just off of Manhattan, land on the far side of Liberty Island, here.

Wolverine: What about harbor patrol, radar?

Cyclops: If they have anything that can pick up our jet, they deserve to catch us.

Cyclops: Wait a second! You said this machine draws its power from Magneto, and that it weakened him.

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: Yes, in fact it nearly killed him.

Wolverine: He's going to transfer his power to Rogue and use her to power the machine.

Stu: You owe me some money.

Stu's friend: Come on, Stu.

Stu: No one takes a beating like that without a mark to show for it.

Stu's friend: Come on, Stu...

Stu: [leans in, whispering] I know what you are.

Wolverine: You lost your money. You keep this up you'll lose something else.

Wolverine: Magneto's right: there is a war coming. Are you sure you're on the right side?

Storm: At least I've chosen a side.

Wolverine: Gotta get her out of there. Cyclops, can you hit it?

Cyclops: The ring's moving too fast.

Wolverine: Just shoot it!

Cyclops: I'll kill her!

Wolverine: [on Cerebro] Well, it certainly is a big, round room.

Storm: You could fly right over the torch.

Wolverine: Then let me go. If I don't make it, then at least you can still blast the damn thing!

Cyclops: All right, do it. Jean use your power, try to steady him.

Storm: Hang on to something.

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: [at a map] This is a military base situated near Alkali Lake. It isn't much, but if you go there, you might get a few clues as to what happened to you.

Wolverine: Thank you.

Prof. Charles Francis Xavier: [reading Logan's mind] Are you going to say goodbye to her?

[Cyclops lands the plane abruptly]

Cyclops: Sorry.

Wolverine: You call that a landing?

Wolverine: Jean...

Dr. Jean Grey: Scott, when I tell you, open your eyes.

Cyclops: No!

Dr. Jean Grey: Trust me.

[Wolverine takes out Cyclops' visor]

Wolverine: You drop something?

Wolverine: [to Jean Gray] So... couldn't wait to get my shirt off again.

[grins]

[to Sabretooth]

Wolverine: Hey, bub, I'm not finished with you yet.

Wolverine: [gets back his dogtags from Sabretooth] This is mine!

Wolverine: That tickles.

Dr. Jean Grey: Hey.

Wolverine: Hey!

Dr. Jean Grey: How are you feeling?

Wolverine: Fantastic.

William Drake: What exactly are you a professor *of*, "Professor Logan?"

Wolverine: [Rogue, Bobby, and Pyro look at Logan, none of the kids knowing what to say]

[pause]

Wolverine: Art.

Wolverine: Got any beer?

Bobby: This is a school.

Wolverine: So that's a "no"?

Bobby: Yeah, that's a "no."

Wolverine: Got anything other than chocolate milk?

Professor X: Logan, my tolerance for your smoking in the mansion notwithstanding, continue smoking that in here, and you'll spend the rest of your days under the belief that you're a six-year-old girl.

Wolverine: You'd do that?

Professor X: I'd have Jean braid your hair.

Policeman: Put the knives down!

Wolverine: I can't.

Pyro: [grunts] I don't like uncomfortable silences.

Rogue: What are you doing?

[radio turns on and "Bye Bye Bye" by N'Sync Plays]

Pyro, Rogue, Wolverine, Bobby: [all groan] Ahh.

Wolverine: Who's this guy?

Rogue: This is Bobby, he's my...

Bobby: I'm her boyfriend.

[shakes Logan's hand and freezes it]

Bobby: Call me Iceman.

Wolverine: Boyfriend? So how do you guys...?

Bobby: Well, we're still working on that.

Wolverine: You picked the wrong house, bub.

Dr. Jean Grey: Girls flirt with the dangerous guy, they don't bring him home; they marry the good guy.

Wolverine: I can be the good guy.

Dr. Jean Grey: Logan, the good guy sticks around.

Nightcrawler: Guten tag.

Wolverine: [to Nightcrawler] Who the hell are you?

[to Jean and Storm]

Wolverine: Who the hell is this?

Nightcrawler: Kurt Wagner, but in the Munich circus, I was known as The Incredib...

Wolverine: Yeah, save it.

Rogue: Logan, come on. Let's go.

Wolverine: Go, I'll be fine!

Rogue: But we won't.

[in the X-Jet, being pursued by two fighter jets]

Storm: I gotta shake them!

[she does a roll with the plane and drops it sharply towards the ground, then levels off]

Pyro: [looking ill] Please don't do that again.

Wolverine: [looking ill] I agree.

[Deathstrike extends her claws]

Wolverine: Holy shit.

Madeline Drake: We still love you Bobby, it's just this mutant problem is a little...

Wolverine: [Interrupting] What Mutant problem?

Madeline Drake: ...complicated.

Wolverine: [tosses Cyclops the keys to his motorbike] Your bike needs gas.

Cyclops: [tosses back the keys] Then fill it up.

Pyro: I'm driving.

Wolverine: Maybe next time.

Wolverine: Who am I?

William Stryker: If you knew the kind of person you used to be, the work we did together... People don't change, Wolverine. You were an animal then and you're an animal now. I just gave you claws.

[about Mystique]

Wolverine: She's good.

Magneto: You have no idea.

Bobby: This is Cyclops' car.

Wolverine: Oh, yeah?

[pops his middle claw, and uses it to turn the ignition]

Wolverine: [stabs Stryker] How does it feel, BUB?

Magneto: His name is Colonel William Stryker, and he invaded your mansion for one purpose: he wanted Cerebro, or enough of it to build one of his own.

Dr. Jean Grey: But that doesn't make any sense. Stryker would need the Professor to operate it.

Magneto: Which I think is the only reason my old friend is still alive.

Storm: Oh my God...

[Storm, Jean Gray and Magneto exchange worried looks]

Wolverine: What are you all so afraid of?

Magneto: While Cerebro is working, Charles's mind is connected to every living person on the planet. If he were forced to concentrate hard enough on a particular group - let's say mutants, for example - he could kill us all!

Storm: Wait a minute, how would Stryker even know where to find Cerebro in the first place?

Magneto: ...Because I told him. I helped Charles build it, remember? Mr. Stryker has powerful methods of persuasion - even against a mutant as strong as Charles.

[during the attack on the mansion]

Colossus: I can help you.

Wolverine: [Motioning to the children] Help them!

Mystique: No one's left a scar quite like you.

Wolverine: What do you want - an apology?

Mystique: [bites him sexily on the ear] You know what I want.

[shifts into Storm, then Rogue]

Mystique: But what do you want?

[Wolverine pushes her off, then she transforms into Stryker]

Mystique: What do you *really* want?

Wolverine: I want you to leave.

[Mystique exits, glaring]

Wolverine: [under his breath] Jesus.

Bobby: Have you ever wanted to be with someone so badly, but you can't?

[pause]

Bobby: I've seen how you look at Professor Grey.

Wolverine: Excuse me?

Bobby: Nothing.

[Wolverine approaches Stryker, chained to the outside of the dam, while carrying Artie in his arms]

William Stryker: Who has the answers, Wolverine? Those people? That creature in your arms? Huh? Huh?

[Wolverine looks at Artie, then takes off his "Wolverine" dog tag and throws it at Stryker's feet]

Wolverine: I'll take my chances with him.

[he turns and walks away]

William Stryker: One day, someone will finish what I've started, Wolverine!

[Artie looks over Wolverine's shoulder at Stryker, and sticks out his lizard tongue at him]

William Stryker: [shouts] One day!

[the X-Jet is pursued by a fleet of jets]

Storm: Somebody's pretty pissed.

Wolverine: [glares at Pyro] I wonder why!

Wolverine: If you want to shoot me, then shoot me!

Wolverine: She did make a choice, Scott. It was you.

Professor X: Mr President, we're here to stay. The next move is yours.

Wolverine: We'll be watching.

Wolverine: Who are you?

William Stryker: Don't you remember?

[to Stryker]

Wolverine: If we die, you die.

Wolverine: How long have you been here?

Bobby: Couple of years, it's not so bad.

Wolverine: What about your parents, they just shipped you off to mutant school?

Bobby: Actually, my parents think this is a prep school.

Wolverine: Well, I guess lots of prep schools have their own campus, dorms, kitchens...

Bobby: Jets?

Dr. Jean Grey: Why do you need us?

Magneto: Mystique has discovered plans of a base that Stryker's been operating out of for decades. Only we don't know where it is. We thought one of you might.

Wolverine: The professor already tried.

Magneto: [sighs] Once again, you think it's all about you.

[he looks up. They follow his gaze and see Nightcrawler perched in the trees above them]

Wolverine: I need you to read my mind again.

Professor X: Logan, the mind isn't just a box that can be unlocked and opened, it's a beehive with many...

Wolverine: Spare me the lecture.
