• Andrew summoned the Fantastic Four, and Susan introduced him to Dr. Reed as her boyfriend and the King of Abilities’ superior.

Andrew told Dr. Reed and the Fantastic Four that their world could survive by becoming the setting of an engaging story, with the Time Variance Authority able to monitor whether the plan worked. He suggested they could also endure by appearing in a more popular world's story, leaving them to test the idea by staging a spectacular sequel.

• Chthon teleported to Hell to find Mephisto, while The Intermediary began watching Dr. Reed to see whether the Fantastic Four’s show could save the world.

Chthon visited Mephisto to learn how he had reached Deadpool 3's World and secured his new power. Mephisto proposed that Chthon summon a New World to escape the Main Universe, while secretly intending to make his enemies spend resources that would strengthen Andrew.

• Chthon found Mephisto's impoverished Demon Kings charging travelers tolls and information fees, then went to the Demon King's Palace to find Mephisto.
• Mephisto explained that he had entered Deadpool 3's World by hiding a wisp of consciousness on Wade, taking over Blackheart, and killing another Mephisto to inherit his gains.
• Chthon welcomed Mephisto among the Lords of Hell and urged him to join the Blood Battle, but Mephisto said he needed time to digest his gains and await his avatar's Skyfather breakthrough.
• Chthon asked Mephisto to help him escape the Main Universe despite the Void Storm, and Mephisto suggested summoning a New World using the Mechanical Demon King's Magic Array and an anchor.
• Chthon considered using the New World to escape and divert the Mechanical Demon King and the King of Abilities from discovering his sacrifice, while Mephisto intended to make his enemies pay the cost of summoning a world.

Meanwhile, the Tree of Time proposed exploiting Black Dragon’s apparent resentment to recruit him and Zeus’s Three Siblings against the King of Abilities.

Chthon and Immortal Kang then considered using a world-summoning array to bring in a New World, but they had not settled on a safe method.

• The Tree of Time urged the King of Negativity to gather the nine brothers, restore the Black Dragon with Bloodlines obtained from Chthon, and push the Teddy Bear to create False Negative Energy.
• Kaguya Otsutsuki recognized that the plan depended on the Black Dragon turning against Andrew, a premise she believed was false.
• Andrew told the Black Dragon that Chthon and the King of Negativity would try to recruit him, promised to remove any tampering in the Bloodlines, and instructed him to play along while Andrew targeted the Tree of Time.

• Chthon and Immortal Kang considered whether films such as Terminator might reflect real universes, but decided to explore other methods before choosing a plan.

Immortal Kang secretly contacted Homelander and tried to recruit him as a Doomsday Gene test subject, while concealing his plan to take over Homelander’s body. Homelander doubted Immortal Kang’s claims and, wanting the gene without trusting either side, began considering Soldier Boy’s advice.

• Immortal Kang agreed with Chthon to cooperate against the King of Abilities and the Mechanical Demon King, but privately decided to keep Homelander as a backup body.

• Immortal Kang claimed that Death and the others had chosen Billy over Homelander, but Homelander suspected the claim was a manipulation and decided not to ask Death.
• Homelander weighed the risks of seeking the gene from Immortal Kang or Death, then thought Soldier Boy might know what to do.

• Soldier Boy secretly deepened Homelander’s favorable feelings through the Life Simulator, then advised him to find a partner to uncover hidden tampering.
• Soldier Boy told Homelander the simulator could predict reality and encouraged him to consider becoming a true superhero during a long conversation.
• Homelander used several simulations and chose to contact the King of Negativity rather than Wade, proposing an alliance against Immortal Kang in exchange for helping the Compound V Big Trees fulfill Destiny.
• The King of Negativity consulted the Tree of Time and Kaguya Otsutsuki, who agreed Homelander could be a valuable ally but worried about his loyalty and character.
• The Tree of Time proposed using Life Power to bind Homelander’s interests and a brief time-based pause as a safeguard, while Kaguya warned that working with Homelander could undermine her effort to win over Billy.

King of Negativity allied with Homelander and negotiated with Chthon over reviving Black Dragon and moving the Depths of Hell into the Main Universe. Chthon still could not leave the Main Universe unnoticed, while Andrew’s research offered a way to disrupt the planned universe sacrifices.

• Andrew gathered the Conqueror Kangs to research entry into Universes sealed by the Void Storm, which could derail Chthon and Immortal Kang’s sacrifice plan.
• After half a month, Chthon admitted he could not leave the Main Universe unnoticed, and the Intermediary said the group might still find another method.

Chthon persuaded the others to summon movie worlds using a Magic Array, with Hell-themed and zombie apocalypse films providing possible anchor points. They agreed to gather resources and hold a film festival, unaware that God Andrew retained control of the array and had set it as bait.

• Chthon explained that summoning movie worlds could enable their sacrifice and bring them benefits, but required substantial resources and swift action.
• Demon and the others agreed to contribute resources after Chthon warned that the Mechanical Demon King and the King of Abilities would soon overcome the void storms.

• Set secretly told God Andrew about the plan, and God Andrew revealed that the array was a Science Magic Circle he controlled and had planted as bait.
• Chthon and Immortal Kang began preparing the main Magic Array in Hell and a connected secondary array beneath the film festival.

Andrew managed the Kang Council’s preparations to break through the Void Storm while promising the Conqueror Kangs freedom after five hundred years of service. He then brought Galacta to the Fantastic Four’s world, where Susan raised concerns about the screenwriters learning the truth behind the Script.

• Chthon and the other evil beings sent resources to the Altar to help construct the Magic Array, while Andrew urged Pharaoh Kang to speed up research on the Void Storm.
• Andrew ordered Pharaoh Kang to revive the Conqueror Kangs, turn their souls into data, and promise them freedom after five hundred years; the Kangs agreed to serve him.

• Andrew took Galacta to the Fantastic Four’s world, where Susan asked whether the screenwriters would discover the truth about the Script.

Susan, Doctor Doom, and Dr. Reed expanded their film script to include more heroes and Galacta, while Andrew secretly built a Virtual Magic Array in their world. Chthon and Hoggoth investigated the array together but could not find anything wrong with it.

• Andrew told Susan to broaden the script beyond the Fantastic Four and Doctor Doom, and Susan relayed his suggestion to Doctor Doom and Dr. Reed.
• Dr. Reed warned that expanding the story could endanger civilians, while Doctor Doom proposed resurrecting victims and compensating them with money.
