"Better than Best!",

New York State warehouse, Logan hangs shackled to a wall. Roughouse enters the room and starts punching Logan trying to wear his mutant-healing factor out. Bloodscream runs his hands across Logan’s face, which causes blood to draw out of Logan’s face. They both leave, Roughouse tells Logan that they will let his bones mend so they can break them again. Logan thinks back on how he got in his current situation.

East Village Manhattan at Logan’s apartment, Logan looks over his apartment that is in shambles from the McLeish’s adamantium bomb that went off. Logan decides to go get lunch, but a robber was robbing the sandwich shop, instead of attacking the robber, Logan follows him back to his warehouse hideout, then burst through the warehouse wall to attack him, but Bloodscream and Roughouse caught him of guard.

Back in the warehouse, Bloodscream and Roughouse beat up Logan again. Logan decides that he isn’t going to give up and pulls and pulls at his hand, tearing the meat off the bone, Logan gets one hand loose. With his one hand loose and remembering what storm had taught him, Logan picks the lock to his other hand.

Later, Roughouse returns to the cellar where they are keeping Logan, but the bulb is out. Roughouse calls for some of the armed men to check it out. The armed men can’t believe Roughouse is afraid of the dark, suddenly Logan jumps out at the men and knocks them out. Logan gets into a nearby fork lift and rams through a wall, knocking over Roughouse. Roughhouse picks up the forklift and jumps down from it, Logan dodges a couple of Roughouse’s punches, then Logan punches and kicks back. Then Bloodscream jumps onto Logan’s back and starts to drain Logan of his blood, but Logan pushes him back, turns and punches Bloodscream through his stomach with claws extended. Bloodscream runs off, while Roughouse tries to attack Logan. Logan tricks Roughouse into smashing the supports to the concrete ceiling above which collapses on Roughouse. Logan realizes that the ceiling will not be enough to stop Roughouse and Logan waits. Roughouse eventually uncovers himself. Logan jumps on his back and threatens to stab Roughouse through the neck. Roughouse decides to surrender. The cops show up and arrest Roughouse.
