| Trish Tilby |  Scott, I came here today to give the X-Men a chance that mutants are just like us, people. Normal. And you lie. Why lie?  |
| Cyclops | Because you're normal. |
| Trish Tilby | Excuse me? |
| Cyclops | I said, because you're normal. You're ungrateful. We fight, risk our lives for you. Evil mutants, robots, crazy aliens. I gave him up. I gave him up because you can't say thank you. Because I have to stomach your questions and prove that I'm a person. I lie because the truth is we're nothing like you. Thank God, because it's the only reason you people are still alive. |
