X-men: First Class Page #3

Hot out there.

Beer, please.

- German beer.

- Of course.

Yes, it's Bitburger. You like it?

The best.

What brings you to Argentina?

The climate. I'm a pig farmer.

Tailor. Since I was a boy.

My father made

the finest suits in Dusseldorf.

My parents were from Dusseldorf.

What was their name?

They didn't have a name.

It was taken away from them...

by pig farmers...

...and tailors.

Blood and Honor.

Which would you care to shed first?

We were under orders...

Blood then.

Freeze, a**hole.

Come on, shoot.

Who... what are you?

Let's just say I'm Frankenstein's monster.

And I'm looking for my creator.

Drink! Drink! Drink!

Yeah!

- I'm so proud of you.

- Thank you.

I need another drink.

And you need another cola.

- Congratulations, Professor.

- Thank you very much.

It's much harder than it looks, actually.

No, on your presentation.

You were at my presentation?

How nice of you. Thank you very much.

Moira MacTaggert.

- Charles Xavier.

- Do you have a minute?

For a pretty little bean

with a mutated MCR1 gene?

I have five.

I say "MCR1,"

you would say "Auburn hair."

It's a mutation.

It's a very groovy mutation.

Mutation, right,

took us from single-celled organisms

to the dominant form...

You know what? This routine may

go over great with the co-eds,

- but I'm here on business.

- What?

- I really need your help.

- All right.

The kind of mutations that you were

talking about in your thesis.

I need to know

if they may have already happened.

In people alive today.

Professor?

I think we should just talk

when you're sober.

Do you have any time tomorrow?

Something tells me you already know

the answer to your question.

This is very important to me, and

if I can help you, I will do my utmost.

Thank you.

Still drinking champagne, Bob?

I will pass.

Okay, well, so much for the pleasantries.

I was wondering who you told

about our little arrangement.

No one.

- He's telling the truth.

- Good.

Well, I guess we're done here.

Let's wrap things up, shall we?

I knew better than to trust you.

Now, you let me walk out of here

with my money,

or I will pull this pin, and we all die.

Go ahead. Pull it.

I'll do it, I swear to God.

No, you won't.

But I will.

You're one of them?

Very astute of you, Colonel Hendry.

You want to guess what I can do?

I've got the power to absorb energy.

It keeps me young.

But that's the boring part.

The fun stuff is what I can do with it

once I've got it.

The advent of the nuclear age may have

accelerated the mutation process.

Individuals with extraordinary abilities

may already be among us.

Thank you very much.

MacTaggert, you really think

that some crackpot scientist
