The episode plots themselves shared little relation with that of any of the games, though the character designs are based on their <i>MK3</i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Ultimate_Mortal_Kombat_3" title="Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3">Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3</a></i> sprites (except for Kitana, whose design looks like a blend of her <i>MKII</i> and her <i>UMK3</i> looks). <a href="/wiki/Kung_Lao" title="Kung Lao">Kung Lao</a>, <a href="/wiki/Johnny_Cage" title="Johnny Cage">Johnny Cage</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mileena" title="Mileena">Mileena</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sindel" class="mw-redirect" title="Sindel">Sindel</a>, <a href="/wiki/Goro_(Mortal_Kombat)" class="mw-redirect" title="Goro (Mortal Kombat)">Goro</a> and <a href="/wiki/List_of_Mortal_Kombat_characters#Kintaro" class="mw-redirect" title="List of Mortal Kombat characters">Kintaro</a> were not shown or referenced in the show at all, while characters based on <a href="/wiki/Reptile_(Mortal_Kombat)" title="Reptile (Mortal Kombat)">Reptile</a>, <a href="/wiki/Baraka_(Mortal_Kombat)" class="mw-redirect" title="Baraka (Mortal Kombat)">Baraka</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Jade_(Mortal_Kombat)" title="Jade (Mortal Kombat)">Jade</a> were featured. </p><p>The finale involved Kitana leading a rebellion from Outworld against Kahn.

The situation takes a turn for the worse until Sub-Zero intervenes and assists the warriors in forcing the invaders back to Outworld. Sub-Zero tries to warn the warriors of the incoming threat from Scorpion, although Sonya Blade is hesitant to believe him due to the fact he betrayed his clan. Following Rayden's instructions, the warriors reluctantly return to base with Sub-Zero in company. Shortly afterwards, a group of Nomad warriors locate and invade the base, further raising Sonya's belief that Sub-Zero has betrayed them. After staving off the Nomad invaders outside, Sub-Zero and Nightwolf fight off the ones inside, with Sub-Zero defeating their leader, Karbrac. Sonya is finally convinced that the runaway Lin Kuei is on their side. Before apologies can be made, an alarm sounds, indicating Scorpion's approach. </p> Despite the games' graphic nature, <i>DotR</i> was aimed at a younger audience and thus contained toned-down violence. During a recreated flashback of Liu Kang's fight scene with Sub-Zero from the movie, Sub-Zero is merely frozen by the water thrown by Liu Kang, whereas in the film he was impaled by a water-turned-to-ice stake. Although <a href="/wiki/Baraka_(Mortal_Kombat)" class="mw-redirect" title="Baraka (Mortal Kombat)">Baraka</a> makes no appearance in the series, the Nomad leader in this episode is named Karbrac; this was likely intended as a phonetic anagram of Baraka's name.

The warriors follow Scorpion to Outworld and find themselves in danger of alerting Shao Kahn to their presence. Eventually, the Earth warriors find themselves in a tomb built for Outworld's most evil of warriors. It is also the resting place of the sorcerer Shang Tsung. Sub-Zero charges after Scorpion, who reveals his intention to resurrect Shang Tsung. Sub-Zero's anger gets the better of him, though, and he is quickly subdued. Sub-Zero entrusts Liu Kang with the task of defeat Scorpion because he believes that he could've defeated his brother without the help Kitana gave him. Liu Kang defeats Scorpion in Mortal Kombat with help from Sub-Zero. Sub-Zero almost throws Scorpion from the top of Shang Tsung's tomb until Liu reminds him that, without honor, he would be no better than his brother. Along with his undead soldiers, Scorpion is sent back to the realm of lost souls.

Kano and his servants open a portal to lead the army of evil to other worlds. With the help of Kabal, the Earth warriors manage to crush these forces unleashed by Kano and destroy the portal. The Earthrealmers offer Kabal the chance to join them, but he chooses to continue his crusade against evil alone.

They anxiously await the confrontation, but Liu Kang shows more apprehension because a victory would mean that Kitana would have to leave the team to rule Edenia. Kitana brokers an agreement with Sheeva's Shokan warriors, but she doesn't know that she is in fact Shang Tsung, who transformed to look like Sheeva. Kitana and the rebellion forces break into Shao Kahn's castle and demand that Shao Kahn hands over his rule to the princess. Suddenly Shang Tsung appears with the warriors of the real Sheeva. The sorcerer is also after the throne of Outworld. But Tsung forgets one thing; Sheeva and the Shokan also have enemies in Outworld. Rayden finds out Shang Tsung's plan and disrupts the fight. The god of thunder brings with him the worst enemy of Sheeva; Motaro, along with the entire Centaur and Tarkatan armies. The defenders escape through a portal as the Shokan and Centaurs do battle. The insurrection may have failed, but the realm of Earth has not fallen and Mortal Kombat continues. It is unknown what happens next as the series ends.
