- It's Lou's Bar Mitzvah, and M.O.D.O.K. has to round up more people to attend the proceedings. When he fails to get kids from the mall, he rounds up all the has-beens and villains he met over the course of the first 9 episodes.
- While trying to fix Lou's Bar Mitzvah by finding people to attend, M.O.D.O.K. confronts his past self and sees his future. Unfortunately to achieve that future, M.O.D.O.K.'s family has to die at the hands of his past self. Or something like that: it's all very timey-wimey.—Gislef
- At the Temple Beth Israel, the two Lous rehearse their Bar Mitzvah, singing their prayers. Modok and Jodie are in the pews, watching, and Modok admits that no one will be at the reception because he thought the Lous wanted an "intimate" reception. He tells Jodie about how the rabbi told him the divorce was making Lou push kids away, and Jodie figures they have to do something because no one showing up at the Bar Mitzvah will traumatize Lou for life. Modok assures her that he'll fix it.
Modok finds Melissa filming the ceremony on her new Stark phone, He asks his daughter to help him save the Lous' Bar Mitzvah, for them if not for Modok. Melissa agrees and Modok ask her to get teens for the reception. She goes to the mall and tells three boys that she's the casting director for a new Jewish reality show. Modok goes with her and says the show is 'Night Court', which the teens have never heard of. He tries to scoop them up with a net, and Melissa breaks it and directs them to the auditions.
Modok and Melissa set up an audition table, and Jessica approves everyone because they're desperate. Impressed by one girl, Sarah, Modok tells everyone else to go home. Melissa reminds her father that it's not a real show, and Sarah overhears her and leaves. Melissa points out to Modok that he cost them all the kids. Modok figures that the divorce is taking a toll on Lou and ignores Melissa's complaints.
Jodie calls and asks if Modok has kids, and Modok promises that people will be there and he won't let Jodie down. Jodie knows better. She waits with the Lous outside the hall, and tells them that they're waiting for Modok. Modok and the Super-Adaptoid van arrive with the crew, other supervillains, Kobolts, and tied-up Ciegrimites.
The reception doesn't go well, and Modok tries to get more fun people there. He calls for hookers, but they say they're going out of business because of gigolos. The Lous are depressed, and Modok figures that he'll talk to the Lous. He blames things on Melissa, and the Lous say that all they wanted was to dance with Modok, because he's the man they admire most. Modok insists on dancing with them with proper mood lighting, and they go out on the dance floor and dance.
Melissa shoots herself with the drunk gun and bemoans her fate. Even the Ciegrimites find her a bummer, while stalker Whirlwind stalks her. He admits that Modok showed him and the others videos of Melissa, and she's a really good skater.
While the Lous dance, Modok tells that he knows the divorce hasn't been easy for them. Carmilla comes in, interrupting Modok, and the Lous run over to her. Jodie asks Modok if they should finish the dance, and Modok takes her hand and they dance. They both agree that they're not ready to go back to the way things were, and Jodie says that they could have more dinners like the one they had the other night.
The Ciegrimites convince upper-Adaptoid to free them and compliment him in return. Past Modok arrives in a giant mech suit and crushes the escaping Ciegrimites, and the crew attack him. Past Modok frees them with the implanted mind crystals, and pulls Modok's weaponry off of him and tosses him aside. Modok recovers and launches himself at Past Modok before Past Modok can hurt his family, but Past Modok knocks him to the floor and fires rockets at the family.
Modok unleashes a mental blast, which interacts with the embedded mind crystals and freeze time. It also knocks Past Modok out of his mech suit, and he tells Modok that he came to the future to give Modok the world. They argue about whether Modok can trust essentially himself, and eventually Past Modok transport himself and Modok to the timeline where they fought in the past, which was erased. Because of the embedded crystals in his head, Past Modok became unstuck in time and became the "Anomaly".
Anomaly was spiraled into the future, and witnessed every single one. Each one ended in failure for them. They go back to where Modok's mother told him he would dream up fantastic things, and Anomaly takes Modok to the one future where he succeeds. Anomaly explains that after travelling through time, he learned that Modok's love for his family made all of it possible.
They return to the frozen present, and Anomaly explains that when Modok's family died, it breaks him and the trauma fuels Modok into defeating the Avengers and conquering the world. Modok says that he'll find another way, and Anomaly tells him that Modok never leaves the strip mall. Anomaly tells his counterpart that it has to be the way he proposes, and asks Modok to let him be a villain as the world has labeled him. Modok says that he can't do it, and Anomaly ells him that he knows, and that's why he's there.
Modok envisions himself in the future celebrating his triumph, and then has his AIM lackeys torture his captured self to see the timeline with his family. The captive Modok dies from the strain, and a lackey reports that without the crystals there's no way to go back in time. Emperor Modok vows that he'll have it all.
