Jubilee's Fairytale Theater is an episode of X-Men: The Animated Series. It originally aired on November 16 1996. It was most likely based on a comic book where Kitty Pryde tells a story to a young Illyana Rasputin.

Plot

Jubilee leads a group of school children on tour of a cave on Mansion property, only to be caught in a cave-in. As the water in the cave rises, she keeps the kids calm by spinning a medieval fairy tale of knights, princesses, trolls and dragons. Some of these characters might just seem to resemble the X-Men - Jubilee sort-of inserts herself as the heroine, a young rogue girl whose travel companions are Wolverine and Gambit. They aid a prince who strongly resembles Cyclops, his princess who looks like Jean Grey, and a mage who is a dead-ringer for Professor X. As she tells the kids the stories, the real X-Men arrive and save them.
