    Episode 16 concludes the story of the Phoenix, which stretches all the way back to X-Men issue 100. The X-Men fight the Shi'ar Imperial Guard in the Blue Area of the Moon, Phoenix once again breaks free, and Jean makes the ultimate sacrifice. We also get a quick summary of everything the X-Men have gone through from issues 1 to now -- and see that Scott Summers is taking time away from the team.
