Following an FBI order to disband, Scott and Jean have gone on to start new careers to support themselves. Jean has become a fashion model while Scott has become a radio personality. During a photo shoot, Jean prevents an accident with her telekinetic powers when a studio lamp is almost knocked over. When the owner of Candy's Studio tries to ask Jean out on a date, he is opposed by Scott who almost picks a fight with the man until Jean calms him down. The roles reverse when all the other models show an interest in Scott, prompting a jealous Jean to yank Scott out of the room as quickly as possible. Although they are trying for a normal life, Scott and Jean are in for some trouble, because somewhere in a hidden lab a sentient device called Computo has begun activating its Cybertrons, robots that it plans to use to take over the world.

Scott takes Jean to the radio station where he works and they look over the records that they have to play. Scott points out the arrival of a new 50,000 watt transmitter when movers are attacked by Computo's Cybertrons, prompting Scott and Jean to go into action as Cyclops and Marvel Girl. The two mutants manage to destroy two of the robots, one with electrified hands, and the other with wind and flight powers. However, the final robot, one that is powered by sonic energy manages to flee. However as it flees, Jean uses her telepathic powers to track it back to its base.

Following it to a construction site, the two X-Men blast their way into Computo's lair where they witness the failed robot being terminated by its master. The two mutants are then spotted and attacked by the other activated Cybertrons. Cyclops and Marvel Girl fight their way through them until Cyclops gets close enough to fire an optic blast that causes the computer to explode. However, from the wreckage comes the mastermind behind Computo: Quasimodo, the living computer. Defeated, Quasimodo sets the base to flood and flees the scene.

Cyclops and Marvel Girl take Quasimodo's example and flee the base themselves; just barely managing to make it out before they drown. Back on the surface, Cyclops uses his optic blast to seal the entrance. Leaving the scene, the two remark over the recurrence of evil.
