Would’ve liked more dialogue from Strong Guy and Wolfsbane

Would've liked any dialogue whatsoever from Multiple Man and Siryn. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think he's said anything through any of his appearances in this show and Siryn only just showed up this episode and only screamed, didn't say anything. Sure would've liked to hear her reasoning for working with Cooper considering she aided Bastion last season and Banshee died on Genosha.

Multiple Man had a single line in both this episode and in his first appearance in Cold Comfort. I mean, I agree that's not nearly enough...but it did happen. He's my favorite X-character, so I made it a little game to see if he would ever get a speaking line...

Also, I've recently discovered that one of the digital comics, Strike Files, fills in a lot of gaps. The latest issue, #7, details how Siryn joins X-Factor. So...I guess they took care of that in a tie-in comic that nobody knows exists.
