Too many useless repetitions

Suspected spoilers-

1. Qin goes to see Magneto

This whole paragraph seems inexplicable, why would she want to see Magneto after killing roven? One is the murder of revenge, and the other is the murder of a friend by mistake. I don't understand what exactly is Qin trying to explore? In the end, it turned into a showdown of power, proving that Jean was stronger than Magneto.

But there is still a scene where the piano explodes Magneto's helmet. It would be better to take this as the first duel between the piano and Magneto, because no matter how you think, Magneto will not be stupid enough to know that he is not strong enough to rush up. Duel with Qin.

The deletion of this paragraph does not affect the plot at all, Hank will still go to Magneto, and Magneto will still be provoked and go to Qin for revenge. And it would be more reasonable to go to the bar to get drunk after the murder. Seriously suspect this was a later reshoot.

2. Qin's Last Awakening

In the part of entering Charles' thinking world, the lines and dialogues are confusing. Charles has not started to persuade, you understand? Was it really a tantrum before that?

It's better to delete this paragraph and change it to the fact that they were beaten and retreated. In the end, Qin suddenly stepped forward to help them, which was a shock. And then some more conversations at the end.

    Raven: So come home. Let me take care of you.

    Jean Grey: No, you can't. You can't. You don't... You don't know what it's like.

    Raven: Then tell me.

    Jean Grey: When it comes... people get hurt.

    Raven: I'm not afraid of you, Jean. Look at me. Focus on my voice. We're going to get through this together. I'm not giving up on you, Jean. This is what family does. We take care of each other. You're my family, Jean. No matter what.

    Jean Grey: STOP!
