Tolerance Is Extinction - Pt 2 - S1-E9

Other mistake: At the end of the previous episode, Magneto unleashed a global EMP that deactivated all of Bastion's human-Sentinel hybrids and froze them in place. At the beginning of this episode, the man in the mob wearing the letterman's jacket who is chasing Jubilee and Roberto is one of the hybrids that captured the two at Roberto's parents' fundraiser. Given that the EMP neutralized all of the hybrids, this man should not have been running around with a mob. (00:03:08)

Tolerance Is Extinction - Pt 1 - S1-E8

Other mistake: After Xavier crash-lands at the destroyed mansion, he mentally calls out to the X-Men, and we see images of different team members being alerted to his call. The first of whom is Beast, who is shirtless and wearing glasses. However, only moments before Xavier crash-landed, Beast was shown lying on the ground unconscious from the Sentinel attack, wearing a lab coat and not wearing glasses. (00:28:33 - 00:29:20)

Bright Eyes - S1-E7

Other mistake: SPOILER: Gambit's funeral is taking place in his hometown of New Orleans, as evidenced by the coffins being above ground (because New Orleans is at or below sea level). However, Gambit's coffin is oddly lowered into the ground.

Trivia: Series creator Beau DeMayo has said that September 11 and the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando (in which he knew some of the victims) were influences on this episode.

More trivia for X-Men '97

Answer: The post-credits scene from season 1 implies that Apocalypse is going to bring him back to life as his Horseman of Death, which Gambit was at one point in the comics. I also read that former showrunner Beau DeMayo had planned for Gambit to be the central character of season 3, which would have been an adaptation of the Age of Apocalypse storyline from the comics, which seems to imply Gambit will eventually be freed from Apocalypse's control. Whether that is what ends up happening remains to be seen, since DeMayo was fired by Marvel before season 1 premiered.
