Synopsis
| - Years ago, when Frank Simpson was just a little boy, he had a terrible childhood. Though his father, Charles, loved him, he was too much caught up in his work and his mother was a raging alcoholic. The only person who seemed to love him was his sitter, Betsy. On night, as Frank’s parents for out for a party, Betsy admitted to little Frank that she didn’t like his mom very much and that it would be best if she would go away… forever. Frank thought that, by that, Betsy meant she wanted his mom dead. Later that night, as his parents returned home and his mom was once again drunk, Frank was left alone with her when his dad drove the sitter home. Betsy at first tried to seduce Charles, but couldn’t and wanted to admit she did something awful. However, before she could say anything more, a police officer knocked on the car’s window, and shot Betsy. And that police officer was… Logan?! Logan then painted the picture for Charles that no one would believe his innocence. Realizing that his wife would never believe him and pay for a lawyer, Charles shot himself. Logan reported his success back to his associate via radio, and went to pick up little Frank, who in the meantime had already killed his mother! Today, in Vietnam, Wolverine and Nuke face each other again, which results in Logan using his claws to sever both of Nuke’s legs. Hardly defeated, Frank fires his rocket launcher, knocking Logan back and burning the false flesh from his arm and face, revealing the cybernetic pieces beneath. In better shape than Nuke, Logan admits to himself that he came there hoping to save Nuke and bring him back to his former self, though he now realizes he can’t do anything for him but end it. Meanwhile at the White House, the president feels terrible about this messy situation and for the person they sent into the field. He summons Trevor to his side to discuss this, but Trevor completely stands behind the plan. In Vietnam, Logan is ready to use his sword to kill Nuke, but is prevented by none other than… Captain America?
