## Plot

After reviewing what they have learned of the Healthy Rain using them and the other Masked Riders, Travis and Andre choose not to transform for a while. However, a Vine Beast attack forces Travis to transform in order protect a group of kids from the Vine Beast before he and Andre observe Healthy Rain’s new security force, the Chaos Troopers, destroy all traces of the Vine Forest's flora after the nearby crack closes. At Smoothie Fast, believing Exo might try to silence anyone who knows about the Healthy Rain's secrets, Andre convinces Travis not to tell anyone of what they have learned until they know more of the company's intentions. Although Andre also attempts to convince him to discard his Sensō Driver so not to play into the company's hand, Travis refuses, as he believes that it is the only means to fight the Vine Beasts. After watching Samurai defeat a group of high-class Vine Beasts, Andre becomes conflicted. Elsewhere, Myra finds Jared at a place where the old Hollowood Park was before Healthy Rain tore it down. Jared tells her that he used to go to the park with his parents and his sister all the time when he was little. She reveals to Jared about her family’s involvement and tells him of her ideals before he scoffs them and makes her feel guilty by saying that her family helped killed everyone’s spirit. Just after Jared leaves her, Myra encounters Leah who tells her that she knows that she doesn’t have to feel guilty. Myra says that Jared’s right and says that she could’ve tried to convince her mother and brother not to get involved. Leah hugs her and Myra apologizes. Leah tells her that there’s no reason to apologize. Myra then sees the mysterious girl in white who tells her to forget about Travis and Jared and leave the city while she is still in control of her fate. In the events that follow, after his defeat by Team Gallant, Lance finds himself abandoned by his Team Chaos teammates. Shane tries to cheer Lance up, Lance punches him and says that he doesn’t need anyone. Meanwhile, at the Healthy Rain's hologram room, Randall is satisfied with the final testing of his new Zen Driver and Melon Power Fruitlock. As the perfected Masked Rider Exo Zen, Randall tells Julius that the Riders have now served their purpose. The Zen driver then malfunctions, and Julius says that he needs to make more altercations.
