Synopsis for "Gimme Shelter"

Somewhere in downtown LA, Bishop has been spotted by the cops where unleashes his anger against them.

Meanwhile, Betsy telepathically influences a man in the club to help her fight the mind-controlled party-goers. Inside their minds, Betsy finds the little girl controlling them. Storm and Puck find the girl being kept in the vault. Spiral arrives and teleports the girl away with her. Puck manages to be teleported along them. At the rooftop, Spiral defeats Puck easily. Spiral seems attached to the girl, Ginny. Storm rescues Puck from falling from the rooftop and engage Spiral in a battle again. Inside the club, Psylocke goes berserk and fries everyone’s mind.At the rooftop, Spiral teleports away again and brings the girl with her.

In Hungary, Fantomex and Cluster go on a date. Cluster says that she misses Betsy. Fantomex says he doesn’t. Regardless, Cluster thinks that Dark Fantomex must miss her too, and that they need to protect her from him.

Back to LA, Storm concludes that Spiral’s powers must be limited since she only managed to teleport to the rooftop, so she must be close. Storm and Psylocke realize the girl is a new mutant, and that she was mentally influencing the partygoers. Betsy tracks the girl via telepathy before Spiral could place an anti-tracking bracelet on the girl. X-Force finds Spiral, but the encounter is interrupted by an angry Bishop, who looks more powerful than ever. Storm and Psylocke are shocked to see him. Bishop attacks Psylocke and state they have no idea what he is now, seemingly possessed by the Demon Bear.
