Storm searches for Logan after she finds the mob has been issuing wanted posters because someone who looks just like her fellow X-Man has been knocking over their operations. Elsie Dee, who is smarter than Pierce thinks she is, modifies herself and Albert. Wolverine tracks down his robot double and rips through the impersonator. Elsie Dee prepares to fulfill her programming by blowing up Wolverine.
