Synopsis
Professor X mentally battles Mr. Sinister who is trying to take over his mind and body while Dr. Mueller tries to kill them both so she can trap Mr. Sinister and use his powers to make her look young. Shaw and Gambit escape Dr. Mueller's traps and destroy Sinister's machines and Professor X drives Sinister out, apparently killing him. All involved go their separate ways. Later, Shaw is shown having tea with a young woman, telling her she will be his new Black Queen. She declines the name and as we see her alabaster skin and the red diamond on her forehead she names herself "Miss Sinister".
