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 Puppetmon's territory. He instantly begins dragging them to his mansion in the forest on a hidden conveyer 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, his holding up the others from rescuing T.K., but he is easily beaten. T.K. finds Puppetmon's map of the forest and a remote control for the conveyer belts, amongst other things, and he destroys it all. He then escapes the mansion and finds the others.

English Dub edit
The English version of Puppetmon's Hide and Seek game was heavily edited as it involved the use of a gun. In the Japanese version, Puppetmon's Hide and Seek game was actually where he would find T.K. and then shoot with a loaded gun which is why T.K. was desperate to flee. Puppetmon also shot and killed Blossomon and Mushmon. Also the first part of the episode was originally the ending for the previous episode in the Japanese version.
