Sebastian Druid went back home to his father, letting his friends Clea Lake and Stephen Strange know via email. Maya Lincoln-Lopez was eager to spend some time back with her family after being told it was possible. Megan Gwynn finished school and questioned some of her choices, while Xavin Majesdane was excited to have completed a semester of community college by attending summer school. Angelica Jones and Sooraya Qadir marked a lost friend's birthday with apple pie. After some nudging, Reed Richards confessed to his crush on Susan Storm to Alex Summers while surfing, and Tandy Bowen considered starting a food bank or food pantry in District X to help mutants and their families.
Sooraya began a personal project, using the old X-Corps files. The medical staff noticed a mysterious illness that only impacted mutants, and having determined it was actually some form of poisoning, asked X-Factor to investigate. With some help from Callisto, they discovered the culprit was a cheap 'lucky charm' necklace with chunks of green stone, and passed the case over to the odd things team to work out the reason. Topaz confirmed it wasn't magic and Laurie Collins asked Sue, Reed, Hank McCoy and Amadeus Cho to research the stone.
Garrison Kane had a surprise visit from Valkyrie - the former Paige Guthrie - who came to the mansion with a request for help from those who had previously gone to Asgard - plus Garrison and Illyana Rasputin. The group had to capture a group of fallen Valkyrie - the Disir - who had been unleashed on Thor by Loki and then go to Hela to seek their freedom. There was a lot of swashbuckling and Garrison had to deal with a running commentary in his head by the Disir who had been bound to his life force.
Miles Morales and Sharon Friedlander got involved in treating injured bystanders after a car chase went wrong, while Everett Thomas experienced the world through Matt Murdock's senses during a training exercise. And Jean Grey met a new patient, Parker Matthews who was exhibiting unusual symptoms.
