Once snared in the trap, Kinga (along with TV's Son of TV's Frank...or just Max since that's his name) sends Jonah to the Satellite of Love so that she can force him to watch bad movies and monitor his mind. With the help of or his robot friends Cambot, Gypsy, Tom Servo and Crow, Jonah does his best to make it though each movie, while also making fun of it in the process.
