Airu then spots Cutemon and wants to have him.

In the park, Yuu asks Cutemon why he came out, and Cutemon explains to him that he just couldn't stand watching him being lonely. Mikey suggests that Yuu put Cutemon in his X Loader, and Cutemon decides to stay with him until he becomes happy again. Meanwhile, in Airu's house, she is making a trap to capture Cutemon. Back at the park, Tagiru wonders what Cutemon can do, and Mikey explains it to him. He then explains how Yuu lost his partner during the war which would decide the Digital World's future, and Tagiru decides to go with Yuu to cheer him up. Shoutmon suggests that he shouldn't go, but Mikey tells him that he has his own way of caring for him. Mikey then goes to the Fancy Store to check out the incident.

At Yuu's apartment, Tagiru, Cutemon and are amazed at Yuu's house. Yuu tells them that his family is travelling abroad, and that his sister, is in Hong Kong being an idol. Yuu prepares dinner for them, and after he is finished, stares out the window thinking of Damemon. Tagiru, Gumdramon and Cutemon fall asleep quickly. A few hours later, Cutemon wakes up, and then wakes up Tagiru and Gumdramon. They realize that they failed to cheer Yuu up, and try to find him. Tagiru is unable to find him, and Cutemon begins to start crying.

Gumdramon picks up Yuu's scent and the three begin to follow him. Meanwhile, Yuu is at the park where he first met Damemon, and asks him for help. A spark then appears, and Airu is behind him. Opossummon throws an explosive balloon at him, and then Airu uses Time Shift to drag Yuu into DigiQuartz. Tagiru notices this and Time Shifts into DigiQuartz. Yuu is running from Airu when he hits one of her traps. Cutemon spots them, and Opossummon doesn't like him since he's taking away Airu's love from him.

Cutemon hits Opossummon, and then unintentionally heals him. Opossummon retaliates by throwing another explosive balloon, and Yuu puts Cutemon back into his X Loader. Airu then snaps her fingers, flowing electricity through the net. Gumdramon then saves them, so Airu DigiFuses Opossummon and Candlemon, which explodes. It leaves a smoldering crater, and Airu is furious when she finds that the boys escaped from her.

The next day, tells Mikey that an Opossummon ran wild in the Fancy Shop. When he went around to look for evidence, he found signs of explosives and traps. Tagiru asks Yuu why he went to the park, and Yuu stammers. Mikey suggests that he should return Cutemon to him. Yuu tries to reload Cutemon but finds out that he isn't in the X Loader, so the three go try to look for Cutemon.

Cutemon knows something was at the park, and believes that it might be a way to revive Damemon. He runs to the park, but is captured by Airu. The three pursue her, but Opossummon throws his balloons at them, and when the smoke clears, Ren and Ryouma are waiting for them. Ryouma digivolves, so Mikey and Tagiru digivolve theirs. Mikey then asks Tagiru to save Cutemon, so Tagiru follows Yuu.

Somewhere else in the park, Airu tells Cutemon to go into the X Loader, otherwise she would have to beat him up. After Cutemon refuses to go into her X Loader, Airu digivolves Opossummon into Cho-Hakkaimon, and Airu gives Cutemon one more chance before she has Cho-Hakkaimon beat him up and send him in her X Loader. As Cho-Hakkaimon is about to attack, Arresterdramon headbutts her, and she retaliates by attacking him back. Tagiru tells Yuu to stop spacing out, but Yuu then tells him that at the memorable place was where he first met Damemon. He then tells him that if he went back there, he would see him again, and acted bashful to him because of how Tagiru acted like if hunting was a game, since Yuu's feelings of the Digital World being a game ended up killing Damemon. Tagiru then tells Yuu that it is a game, and that helping Digimon would kill two birds with one stone.

Cho-Hakkaimon knocks Arresterdramon and chases after Cutemon, who is running away from her. Yuu decides to save Cutemon, and the balloon Cutemon is tied on bursts. As Cho-Hakkaimon is about to get Cutemon, Arresterdramon restrains her, but she easily pushes him aside. Airu then tells her to get them, otherwise she would be strange, so she shoots a beam of energy at Yuu. As Yuu and Cutemon are hit, Yuu hears Damemon's voice and Damemon appears, telling Yuu that he was waiting for this day. The two have a tearful reunion.

Tagiru and Airu remark on Damemon's apperance. Damemon suggests to Yuu to digivolve him to Tsuwamon, so he does so. Yuu tells Tsuwamon to use Mantis Dust, and pushes Cho-Hakkaimon back. Cho-Hakkaimon then notices the traps and they become activated, restraining Tsuwamon. She then attacks Tsuwamon, impaling him, but Tsuwamon uses a body switch technique, stunning her and Airu. Tsuwamon then uses Wind of the Wave God technique to activate Airu's other traps, which restrain her and Cho-Hakkaimon.

Yuu then releases the ropes, and Airu leaves with Opossummon. At the school rooftop, Mikey congratulates Yuu for getting Damemon back. Yuu thanks Tagiru, Gumdramon and Cutemon for allowing him to get Damemon back. Tagiru tells Yuu that he should be his apprentice, but Damemon tells them that if they had trouble with Cho-Hakkiamon, they aren't any good. An enraged Tagiru and Gumdramon chase Yuu and Damemon, and Mikey and Shoutmon look on. Meanwhile, at Airu's house, she pokes a needle of a doll that looks like Yuu, and Opossummon tries to calm her down. -->
