Synopsis for "Food Fight - Part 3 of 3: Bad Moon Rising!"

Dark Beast appears from his hiding on Genosha and talk with Stripmine and Appraiser as his shackles Shola Inkose and Karima Shapandar to a wall. As he inspects Karima, he discusses his plans with Stripmine while he plays Schubert.
Outside, Magneto and Professor X discuss what to do with the Troll they have captured with Callisto's help. Magneto hears the music Dark Beast is playing and it reminds him of his time in Auschwitz. Freakshow arrives from his fight with the trolls and Magneto removes the Nannite pellet which Freakshow was shot with. The heroes discover that Magneto's power can neutralize the Nannites and restore their powers. Although weak, they formulate a plan for rescuing their teammates.
When the remaining Trolls come looking for their missing companion, they are attacked by Callisto, Freakshow, and Professor X. While Magneto stays with Wicked, the others attack Stripmine and Appraiser. Freakshow changes shape into a Troll and Xavier attacks with a sling and Nannite capsules.
