The month was welcomed in with a CNN announcement that Genoshans Phillip Moreau and Jenny Ransome were requesting political asylum after their escape from Genosha. During an interview with John King, Phillip revealed some surprising facts about the treatment of mutants in Genosha. The Genoshans stayed at the mansion for a while, until Moira MacTaggart - Phase 1 told Charles Xavier that the two would be able to stay at Muir. While in transit, Jenny and Phillip stayed overnight at a hotel, with Garrison Kane and Theresa Cassidy standing guard, but somehow, the two were kidnapped from their room in the night.

Sooraya Qadir approached Garrison about safety arrangements for her upcoming trip to Attilan to testify against Sayyid. Jean Grey and Terry were recruited to help provide a safety detail for the trip. Angelo Espinosa and Yvette Petrovic also decided to go to Attilan as emotional support. While there, Sayyid approached Sooraya and told her he was holding Leyu Yoshida hostage, prompting Sooraya to surrender to him without a fight. Garrison and Terry informed the authorities of Sooraya's disappearance while Angelo, Yvette, and Jean tracked her to a warehouse. Yvette, Angelo, and Sooraya found Leyu, while Garrison, Terry, and Jean dealt with Sayyid and his men - both sides came out with injuries. Once home, Sooraya posted saying she would be staying away from Atillan for a while, and would be giving her testimony from the American Embassy.

Parents, Family and Friends of Mutants arranged a mutant awareness rally that was crashed by Friends of Humanity. Things took an abrupt turn when several FOHers suddenly manifested mutant powers. Luckily, a number of Xavier's people were in attendance (the students had been brought to the rally as a field trip), and were able to help subdue the the mutants, though a few of the students overused their powers in the process. SHIELD showed up afterwards to take the affected FOHers to The Vault.

The relationship between Doug Ramsey and Jubilation Lee ended. Terry posted informing everyone that Bobby Drake had moved to the West Coast Annex, and there were hints in the post that the married couple had a falling out. Layla Miller and Sarah Vale, after months of dancing around the topic, finally made things official between the two of them.
