| Synopsis1 = X-Factor flies to Edinburgh, dimly aware that there is a mutant situation in Scotland. When they arrive, however, they are shocked to see that the city has been transformed into a series of geometrical figures, vaguely resembling people and places. X-Factor finds Proteus at the heart of the matter, and attacks, but finds their attempt to disable him futile, as Proteus easily dispatches each member. Beast finds out the hard way that Proteus is no longer allergic to metal. As they are defeated, the team is transported telepathically into Proteus’ mind, where they experience nothingness. Upon their return, they decide that there are two methods to help Proteus – either convince him to spend his life in a biomechanical shell, or commit suicide. In the end, despite Cable’s protests, Moira MacTaggert convinces Proteus to end his own life, and Proteus’ energy dissipates to the wind once more. Toad and Gideon reveal their reasons for wanting to resurrect Proteus, and toast their status as the Kings of Pain.

Synopsis for "Tribute The Third"

Mystique is aboard a cruise ship to fulfill Destiny’s last request by scattering her ashes at sea at 10 pm precisely, and also has a letter from Destiny to open just before the ashes are scattered. The letter contains Beatles lyrics, a ring, and a photo. Raven remembers the day the photo was taken, when Destiny begged Raven to cheer up and be happy for once. Irene says that she will make Raven laugh if it is the last thing she ever does. Raven weeps as she throws Destiny’s ashes overboard, as she never did make her smile. However, a gust of wind kicks up, and the ashes fly back in Mystique’s face. She falls to the deck, cursing her luck, then realizes how silly it all is, and begins to laugh hysterically. Raven goes below deck, singing their song.
