Sunspot and Siryn have to step in. Warlock's mutant power shuts off and he attacks the team. Boom Boom tries to stop Warlock but finds her powers are on the fritz as well. Jamie's independent dupe tells the team that it seems that they may have latent mutants in the group that are causing their current troubles. Feeling unsafe and cooped up in their little Beat Street Club, the Fallen Angels decide to visit Ariel's home.
