Cyclops, Callisto and Moira are taken prisoners by Conscience and the Master Mold. As Cyclops is gradually dying from the virus, he loses his optic powers while Conscience outlines his origins. Meanwhile, two non-mutants contract the virus, which means that over 92% of humanity will die along with 100% of mutantkind. Conscience wants to stop the release of the virus, but Master Mold refuses.
