	Movies - Repo Man

Repo Man is an episode from the popular cartoon X-Men: The Animated Series. It deals with Wolverine, who has a less-than-pleasant meeting with his old comrades from Alpha Flight.

Plot

Wolverine searches Heather Hudson, who seems to have arranged a meeting in the Canadian wilderness. But it is a trap set by her husband James Hudson, aka Vindicator, who wants to catch Wolverine with the help of the Alpha Flight team. He wants to find out the secret of his adamantium bones. In addition, they consider him as a traitor because he left them for the X-Men.

Wolverine fights Vindicator, Snowbird, Puck, Shaman, Northstar, Aurora and Sasquatch and is eventually overwhelmed. He finds himself prisoner of the Canadian high military staff, who want to find out the secret of the adamantium grafted upon his bones. Therefore, they scan his skeleton.

In a flashback, Wolverine's connection to the Hudsons becomes apparent. They were the first people he met after escaping the Weapon X project, and they nursed the amnesiac man and re-integrated him into society. This explains why Vindicator especially feels betrayed by Wolverine, who left them for the X-Men, and has little scruple to hurt him.

When they cannot penetrate deep enough, the scan intensity becomes so high that Wolverine screams with pain. At this point, Heather protests, and is taken away by force. Alpha Flight - sans Vindicator - decide that enough is enough and decide to free Wolverine. They beat the battle droids, and Wolverine, hungry for revenge, defeats Vindicator in a big fight.

But when Wolverine just wants to finish him off, Heather holds him back, citing that Wolverine once liked her very much. If he truly cares for her, she pleads, he would forgive the error of her husband, as she loves him with all his faults. Wolverine reluctantly agrees, sheathes his claws and stats his Alpha Flight comrades to mind their own business in the future. Then he walks away.
