Plot Summary
Match found himself the winner of a set of VIP tickets to the Excelsior Digital Interactive Experience held at the Jacob Javits Centre. He and a host of other mansionites go to the event, expecting what is heralded as "the next stage in gaming." They instead found themselves drugged in the VR theater and kidnapped, moved to an undisclosed location to participate in the latest version of Arcade's Murderworld based upon old school video games.
Sharon, while knocked out, is forgotten by staff after she reflexively shapeshifted into her small cat form. She woke up alone and went to investigate where her friends went.
Meanwhile, everyone else found themselves paired to participate in a themed interactive experience that resulted in a choice: sacrifice one to let the other live.
- Clea and Paige awake in the world of Tomb Raider.
- Emily and Rogue experience Silent Hill.
- Madin and Mel battle royale in Super Smash Brothers.
- Match, Inez and Liam barrel their way through Donkey Kong.
- Jesse and Shatterstar see the wasteland of Fallout.
- Jono and Ashley plumb through the obstacles of Super Mario.
- Rictor and Hope steal hearts in the world of Persona.
The operations behind the event were tossed into panic due to the stealthy machinations of Sharon. Her assault of the support staff and infrastructure freed everyone else before their situations proved fatal and they proceeded to fight their way to freedom. With this chaos ensuing, Arcade triggered a self destruct sequence that imploded the venue upon anyone who could not evacuate.
The mansionites escape Murderworld intact, only to see it destroyed behind them.
Plot Aftermath & Follow Up
Garrison Kane posted an all teams readout after consulting with local law enforcement. Arthur Centino followed up on this, interviewing members of the event venue and local hospital. Arthur and Jessica Jones went to survey the ruins of the demolished Murderworld, but found no leads. Garrison reminded Generation X of the always open offer for hand to hand training in the Danger Room. Several take him up on it.
Those kidnapped processed in their own ways:
- Sharon eagerly informed Felicia of her savior status.
- Madin and Mel confronted each other about choices made inside the life or death simulation.
- Shatterstar connected with Terry, Haller, and Mel separately to discuss and process the guilt of not wanting to sacrifice himself.
- Mel met with Marius and begins to consider options for not feeling defenseless by joining the X-Men, and she approached Namor about weapon training.
- Marius consoled Rogue over the return of the field trip curse and the heavy choices forced.

Trivia
The targeting of the younger members of the mansion was in direct contravention to the rules Jacob Lowenstein gave his nephew when he handed over the title of Arcade. It remains to be seen how Uncle Jacob reacts to this.
