Code Lyoko S4 E9

## Plot

In the woods, Yumi, Ulrich, Odd, and Aelita are jogging. Jeremie, being Jeremie, is keeping time so he doesn't have to run. They call him out on it, and for criticizing their performance. Even Kiwi is mad at him. Back at Kadic, they're still fighting about it. Jeremie wants them to get in shape so they can beat XANA. They tell him that anyone can time them. They wonder if there's a better way of getting in shape. Jeremie admits that he's not the best trainer, and the others admit that they don't always listen to him. They decide to have a specialist on this sort of thing train them. They ask Jim to do it, because they heard that he used to be a Special Forces trainer. He agrees, and tells Jeremie that he'll be training too. He wonders what he'll do if XANA attacks during it, and the others tell him to bring his computer along. Once they actually start boot camp, they think it was a mistake to ask Jim to train them. During a break, they ask him about his past. He normally doesn't like to talk about it, but since it's just between them… XANA interrupts by activating a tower in the Forest Sector. Jeremie hears the alert on his computer while the others are running. They're already way ahead of him. The others run into a wild boar. It charges at them, but Jim kicks it. It's possessed by XANA, which the kids see. Jeremie runs into them, and the boar charges at him. Jim steps in front of him, and is hit pretty badly. The boar charges at Jeremie again, but Ulrich throws a rock at it. He creates a diversion by getting the boar to chase after him. Jeremie tells the others to get to the computer lab. Aelita can run the computer, and he'll stay here with Jim. They use the skills they learned during training. Ulrich calls Jeremie, and tells him that the boar is heading his way. He leaves to join the others. Jeremie and Jim are hiding in a cave. Jim hurt his leg. Jeremie uses some branches to camouflage their hiding spot. He examines Jim's leg, and splints it to minimize the pain. They bond over being soldiers, although Jeremie of course doesn't directly mention XANA. The others reach the factory. William and some monsters are in the core chamber. Ulrich shows up. He and Aelita will handle the tower while Odd and Yumi stop William. Jeremie realizes that their camouflage is useless. The leaves he used were peppermint, so the boar will find them with its sense of smell. They have to figure out how to hide their scent. Yumi and Odd are virtualized into Sector 5, and Aelita virtualizes herself and Ulrich into the Forest Sector. Jeremie and Jim rub mint leaves on themselves to disguise their scent. Jeremie mentions the activated tower and Lyoko, but he claims that he was just daydreaming, and asks Jim about his past again. In a weird moment, Aelita, who is just as smart as Jeremie, realizes that she made a calibration error, and they can't find the activated tower. Without Jeremie to guide them, finding it won't be easy. They're attacked by two Krabs. Aelita destroys one, and they reason that if there's monsters around, the tower can't be too far away. Odd and Yumi head into the Celestial Dome and fight off Mantas. The boar falls for the camouflage trick and moves on. Jeremie worries that the strong mint smell won't last forever though. Ulrich and Aelita turn around to head back to where they started. However, a Krab shoots Ulrich off the bike. Aelita jumps off, and the bike explodes when it slides into a tree. Ulrich is disoriented, and he's devirtualized after he's shot by another Krab. The boar enters the cave, and Jeremie runs away to distract it. Odd hitches a ride on a Manta so the others will shoot at him instead of the core. However, he's devirtualized. Yumi destroys the last two Mantas, and has to fight William. Ulrich contacts Aelita, and tells her that according to the radar window, she should be right next to the tower. However, she can't see it. She tries to destroy the last Krab with an energy field. It misses, but it hits the tower, which XANA made invisible. Aelita says that he's pulled this kind of trick on them before. Jeremie also uses the skills Jim taught him to escape the boar. Yumi dodges one of William's strikes, and his giant sword is embedded into the wall. Yumi jumps on it, and we get a first person shot of her kicking him in the face. William calls his sword back to him, and deflects one of Yumi's tessens. She throws the other one at him, which he dodges. She slides under him and kicks him. He's turned into smoke by one of the tessens returning to her. Before Jeremie falls, Jim throws a rock at the boar. He says that Jeremie has guts, and that he'd never abandon his men when they're under fire. Aelita destroys the last Krab and enters the tower. The boar sends Jim flying again. Before it can hurt Jeremie, Aelita deactivates the tower. The boar returns to normal and runs off. Back at Kadic, Jim is walking around with a cane. Jeremie didn't do an RTTP, which he considers a good thing. Jim remembers everything, keeping his character development and bonding with the kids, especially Jeremie. You could consider this an apology for the exact opposite happening in the first season finale. His leg injury isn't too serious. He thought it was broken, but it was just a bad sprain with a bruise. It'll be fully healed in two weeks. He's really proud of all of them. He's looking forward to more training sessions with them, but they make up excuses. However, Jeremie says that he'll be there, saying that he owes Jim one, and was really touched when Jim told him that he had guts.
