    Also why would Bishop do anything Emma says? If he felt he needed to bring Bobby's actions to the QC he would/should, Emma has no power or authority to tell him to do anything and he certainly is under no obligation to listen or do it. More likely its just the writers doing their own thing for the story they want to tell. Duggan showed a angry Iceman wanting vengeance and suffering no consequences while Wells showed a confused/disoriented Havok defending both himself and Kurt and facing consequences from the QC for his actions.
    While I agree absolutely that the "therapy " for Havoc is all wrong ,he clearly needs to be investigated first , I think you're missing something.
    Iceman , though clearly brutal , had no intent to kill . Kurt clearly states that , had he not been stopped ,Havoc would have killed the humans.

    Havok wasn't just "confused/disoriented by the bomb blast. He clearly suffered a personality/mental/psychotic break between the time of the blast and Wolverine tackling him down.

    Quite so.
    With Xavier , Jean and Emma present , it's quite a mystery why he wasn't " probed" immediatly.

    Because then he wouldn't have been placed on this team and used as the fall guy when Sinister or one of the others goes rogue...

    Maybe Havok have some form of PTSD and the bombing was the trigger. It could have been the first time it manifested since Emma fixed him. To be honest, the X-men has been subjected to all types of injuries and torture I’m surprise there haven’t been more exhibiting PTSD symptoms.

    Kwannon is the "fall-guy" should things go south...as it most likely will. One way or another.
    Havok is there because of his inadvertent actions. He himself doesn't know what's exactly wrong and how to possibly fix it and seemed to be somewhat resigned to the decision taken by the QC and Sinister.

    I've been thinking this for over 10 years ! Any normal person would have crumbled long ago.
    I can't imagine a group of people who deserve a long holiday at the Green Lagoon more than the X-Men.
    Except me , of course !

    At the moment, it's quite a common dream.

    Havok was clearly going to kill those guys, and he had Logan, Kurt and Syrin there to witness it. He wasn't really disoriented, more like possessed. He started talking crazy.

    Bishop and Emma work together now, and he's been show to trust Emma. I can totally see her telling him not to snitch about Bobby and he agreeing.

    You're right about this. I think that Maddie might have something to do with Alex's current behavior. He died in Rosencanny, so Xavier had to resurrect him from a backup. So either that got corrupted, or this whole thing is not just Inverted Alex coming out again.

    The Goblin Queen's presence could certainly be having an undue influence on her once Goblin Prince. That theory could be more interesting than referencing/bringing back the axis stuff.

    He was snippy with Kurt before they were attacked. “Are you teaching me?”
    Which was noteworthy, as X-Men are very seldom mean to Kurt*.

    I’m also looking at Maddy as the root cause. I can see no way this can go wrong...

    Alex will be just fine without Lorna. Let's keep them separated, I say.

    I'd *love* a lineup that includes folks like Frenzy and Vertigo and Unuscione and Tempo and Dragoness and Phantazia, oh, I dunno, some token dude...

    As an idea, it's definitely got legs.
    Agreed and I'd actually like to see some of the Marauders maybe guest-star, if they can get themselves down from Maddie's play dungeon.
