The X-men and muppets stared at Remy, trying to comprehend his last statement.

            "The doorbell's broken? When did that happen?" asked Warren. Scott turned on him in annoyance.

            "Sinister is waiting outside for us! Don't you think that's a bit more important than the doorbell?!" he screamed.

            "Only if he's the doorbell repairman!" quipped Bobby, at which point Jean had to restrain Scott from attacking him.

            "Shouldn't we at least talk to Sinister?" asked Gonzo.

            "What do you mean?" said Kermit.

            "Well, he does seem to know what we are…" said Gonzo. The rat tittered nervously.

            "Have you forgotten the comics? Sinister is evil."

            "Yes, very evil," said Scott, regaining his composure.

            "Doesn't mean dat he don't got the answers," said Remy casually.

            "Oh Kermie! Don't let the evil clown get me!" Miss Piggy took the opportunity to squeeze the frog until his eyes bulged out.

            "Don't worry chere. Gambit make sure Mr. Sinister be a gentleman." Miss. Piggy froze and stared at Remy.

            "Was that French?" she asked in a dangerous tone. Remy began to slowly back away.

            "Yes," he responded tentatively. Kermit was dropped like a stone, if stones exclaimed 'hey!' when they were dropped that is. Miss. Piggy latched onto Remy's leg and looked up at him with adoring eyes.

            "Say it again Remie." Remy looked helplessly at the others. Rogue was looking very amused.

            "Chere?" he said, intending it for Rogue, but Miss. Piggy squealed and began muttering something about French men.

            "I'm not French," protested Remy, but no one was listening to him. Both the muppets and X-men had broken into a disjointed argument about whether they should talk to Sinister or not. Jean stood in the middle of it, and wished she had hands to clamp over her mental ears. She watched Scott proclaim for the third time that Sinister was evil and decided she had had enough.

            "Shut up!" she screamed, both mentally and vocally. Everyone stopped to look at her. "Now that I have your attention. We will all be going out there and talking to Mr. Sinister." Scott opened his mouth to protest. "And you will all be polite and on your best behaviour. Got that?" There were nods all around, though Logan was looking very amused for some reason. "Good. Now follow me." She headed towards the front hall, muppets and mutants trailing behind her.
