Cable and Hope stage a last stand against Bishop in the subways of New York circa 1978. Cable is weak from his many time jumps and Bishop is finally able to get Hope in his clutches. At the last instant, Cable slaps Bishop's time unit back into his bionic arm and sends him far into the future.; Cable and Hope continue to leap back and forth in time while battling Bishop at every stop.; Bishop finds himself on a ruined earth in 6700 A.D. and, when he tries to jump back in time, the unit explodes, stranding him for good. Cable and Hope leap to the late 1980's and Cable arms himself at one of his old weapons caches. After making a pit stop at X-Mansion for a little hit of nostalgia, they time leap one more time.
