Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Mojovision starts off with Longshot battling alien creatures, which turns out to be a show on "Mojovision". Mojo is angry, that about Longshot's show not being that popular and his channels ratings have gone down. So, Mojo asks his men to get the X-Men. He plans on creating a show based on the X-Men. Mojo asks the X-Men to be on his show, but when they refuse, he beams them to his studio. Spiral comes and teleports all the X-Men to Mojo, apparently trapped in a cube shaped box. Mojo says that if his show's rating don't go up, he will destroy them. Mojo teleports Cyclops and Storm in a boat, and his show begins. Mojo sends three planes that try to blow up the boat. Storm uses her powers to blow up the planes, but Cyclops's boat, which had turned into a plane, gets shot. As soon as Storm saves Cyclops they get shot by a plane, and get sent back to a box, in which they are frozen. while Mojo is busy making the shows, Longshot goes up to the control room. Jean realizes that everything they fight in the show is electronically generated, so she uses her psychic powers to affect the computers, and the show turns off. When Longshot gets to the control room, he frees all the X-Men, so that they will free a time-slot for his show. Logan cuts off the light above Mojo, and they fall on Mojo, crushing him. Then Spiral sends all the X-Men back to Earth.

Back in Savage Land, Professor Xavier and Magneto, see a woman being attacked by a pterodactyl-like creature whom Magneto identifies as Sauron. Xavier tries to help the woman, but Magneto stops him, saying that without their powers they are nothing against Sauron. Sauron hypnotizes the woman into submission and carries her away.
