The title of the episode is great, there are multiple reunions. The pace is good an by now the series really makes you want to watch more to see what is going to happen next with the many characters.

Best episode so far.

Props for the surreal sequence in Sabertooth's mind. Professor X working as a therapist is not what I expected but it makes sense given his psychic powers. Magneto wrecking a chemical plant strangely feels more impactful than him trying to launch a nuke despite the stakes being objectively lower. The moment where Rogue absorbs Cyclops' powers is pretty cool. Charles hits Magneto with the power of PTSD by making him remember the not-Holocaust. The mutantphobic senator mentioning the Mutant Registration Act provides a nice bit of continuity. Xavier's optimism backfires against him, which is nice and gives complexity to his character. Overall the best episode so far in terms of character development.
Two Old Friends

I loved this episode! This was a really action packed twenty minutes. Total adrenaline rush.
Highlights for me:
It was just nonstop and I loved every second of it.
Highlights for me:
- Xavier crawling around in Sabretooth's mind to try and assuage his "rage" problem (looked awesome)
- Rogue accidentally absorbing Cyclops's powers and getting his crazy eyes
- Sabretooth tricking Jubilee into freeing him and revealing he is working for Magneto
- Sabretooth facing off against Wolverine
It was just nonstop and I loved every second of it.
Deadly Reunions.

Deadly Reunions picks it up a bit, where Magneto plots to bring the Professor out into the open. Magneto takes care of the others with ease and Xavier has to confront him. He makes Magneto revisit the trauma of his past, sending him fleeing. Professor Xavier's trying to examine Sabretooth's mind to figure out his rage problem. I love Wolverine's line about Sabretooth, "He wasted some friends of mine for no reason and I misunderstood," heh. Sabretooth and Wolverine end up also confronting each other, in the war room. Rogue saves Cyclops, but in return takes his ability, a sight for sore eyes you might say.
