Maybe what DeMayo meant was that Gambit and Rogue were the OTP of season 2.

spoilers:
I think the scene where Rogue wakes up and Kurt's like, "He's alive" and Rogue replies,"Remy?" is a hint he's coming back. Anyone follows DeMayo on X/Twitter? I saw on IG a screenshot of him giving a hint ("I can feel you") for the next episode

What if the original Remy is in Sinister's lab and the buried Remy is a clone?
