==Synopsis==
 escapes 's grip when rams him. Whamon is then destroyed by MetalSeadramon, just before WarGreymon finishes him off by drilling through him. With the Dark Master destroyed, the ocean begins to reassemble itself, and the group decide what to do next. Tai is ready to move on, unaware that everybody else is coming to terms with the loss of some good Digimon allies. After a while, they head into the nearby forest, and into 's territory. Shortly after entering Puppetmon's forest, Kari begins hearing a sound that apparently no one else can hear, though Tai just tells her to stay with the rest of the group. Puppetmon instantly begins dragging them to his mansion in the forest on a hidden conveyor belt, so the group hide in the trees. However, he splits them up using identical figurines on a special map. After he's done messing around with them, he approaches T.K. and Matt, who are without their Digimon. T.K. agrees to 'play' with Puppetmon so that Matt is spared, and after a game of hide-and-seek in Puppetmon's mansion, T.K. manages to trick him, so he can explore his mansion a bit more. Meanwhile, Kiwimon, one of Puppetmon's servants, is holding up the others from rescuing T.K., but he is easily destroyed by Birdramon, causing Matt to turn on Sora because T.K could have been found with Kiwimon. T.K. finds Puppetmon's map of the forest and a remote control for the conveyor belts, amongst other things, and he destroys it all. He then escapes the mansion and finds the others. When T.K was being praised by Tai and the others, Matt changes his expression, from relieved to sad, and leaves the group without any explanation. When Puppetmon sees that some of his toys, the ones used to control the DigiDestined, are destroyed, he vows he'll get revenge on T.K.

Matt: "T.K.?"
T.K.: "Yeah?"
Matt: "Just stick close to me, and I'll protect you, no matter what happens."
T.K.: "Listen, Matt. The only reason we got this far is because we worked as a team. Each one of us has played a part along the way in keeping us together including Tai"
Matt: "But I..."
T.K.: "And I don't need you to protect me all the time either. If you haven't noticed, I've grown up a lot. I've fought alongside you guys since the beginning and I've always held my own."

T.K.: "I guess so. But I felt like something was tickling me and I couldn't stop laughing. I wonder if there's something wrong with me."

T.K.: "Hey! Stop being so worried about me! I told you before that I know how to take care of myself!"
Matt: "Okay!"
:—T.K. vents his frustration with Matt's overprotective attitude.
Matt: "No! First we find T.K., then we'll fight your war!"
