[Xavier and Magneto play a game of chess at Magneto's cell]

Magneto:
Doesn't it ever wake you in the middle of the night? The feeling that someday they will pass that foolish law, or one just like it, and come for you and your children?

Professor Xavier:

Magneto:
What do you do when you wake up to that?

Professor Xavier:

Professor Xavier:
And I will always be there, old friend.

[Erik concedes the game, knocking over his king]
