The episode starts off with the Team and Black Canary suddenly waking up in a large atrium with many balconies. all imprisoned in chairs that neutralize their powers. Shortly after, their captor introduce himself: Mad Mod, a British-accented supervillain who is very disgruntled of how the Team are always doing good and interfering with the plans of "hardworking villains" such as himself.

He reveals that he kidnapped them by filling into Mount Justice with knockout gas and brought them to his school to teach them a lesson and the reason why he captured Black Canary was to show the Justice League what he's capable of. Mad Mod dumps everyone into a different classroom filled with hypnoscreens to brainwash them. Robin and Artemis manage to escape from their chairs and must find a way to escape Mad Mod's school, which is filled with optical illusions, robot sentinels and various other tricks.

Nevertheless, they manage to recollect Miss Martian, Zatanna, Obsidian Girl and even Sonic Girl, who has been already affected by the hypnoscreens; they soon rejoined with Black Canary, Superboy, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Metal Canary, and Rocket. However, due to the experiences, they all must find a way out and defeat Mad Mod, once and for all. As soon as they spot him, The Team and Black Canary went after Mad Mod, who's proven to be elusive as they were walking in circles, back to where it all started. Finally, Mad Mod tells them that they haven't learn a thing and demands that they must retake the entire lesson and back to their chairs.

Only Robin and Kid Flash made to Mad Mod. As Robin dives in to get the cane, he simply passes through it as he and Kid Flash realize that the Mad Mod they've been following is a hologram. They both decide on a different approach by jumping through a cut hope in the wall, ripping out delicate circuitry, disabling Mod's tricks, illusions and freeing the others from their chairs. Finally, Robin and Kid Flash went to the command room and found the real Mad Mod, a bitter old man with no fighting abilities. the Team and Black Canary emerged with victory from their captivity, despite Sonic Girl's susceptibility to the hypnosis initially gives them minor trouble before the end as Martian Manhunter arrives with the Bio-Ship, reunites with his niece as they leave, preparing to take Mad Mod to Belle Reve and return to the Cave.
