Cable arriving, warning everyone beforehand, time slide alarm goes off, he specifically says " Not again" before apologizing and veing yoinked back through time.

This is clearly an event that Cable has been trying to undo multiple times. If they'd only killed Gambit, maybe he's never successful in undoing it.

But there is no ****ing way that Magneto stays dead, this early into a revived series.

Cue time travel ****ery in 3...2...1.....

I wouldn't be happy with Gambit dying but it would be interesting if they had him dying over and over again no matter how many times they went back in time, a fixed point kinda like the Flash movie, that he always sacrifices himself for Rogue, that would put some great added layers onto their relationship. Not like I'm not going to watch anymore and throw a tantrum but I have to admit it sucks that he was the one that was chosen to die, like take Jubilee, Beast or Morph. But yeah he went out like a BAMF it also sucks that this is the most badass he's ever been portrayed in any show and they use it to ice him, like DAMMIT I finally get peak Gambit and I can't enjoy it for but ten minutes.

Some have mentioned that maybe Apocalypse resurrects Gambit as one of his four horsemen like the comics for next season, I could get behind that.

I don't think magneto is dead. Remember the golden rule. No body no death. My guess is that while he had the shield up night crawler teleported everyone out.

Spoiler!

Isn't Rogue holding his dead charred body at at the end of the episode?

I've really enjoyed this show. It's been a fun ride.
