Juggernaut (episode)

'''Hypnos is about to launch a new program that will delete all wild Digimon. But will it only make things worse?'''



Synopsis
In an empty car park at night, Takato and Guilmon overpower a DarkLizardmon. Before they can finish the job, Hypnos forces arrive. In the confusion, the DarkLizardmon tries to make a grab for Takato, pleading with him to help it digivolve, but is tranquilized by Hypnos, before Yamaki arrives, tells off Takato for trying to fight the Wild Ones like it is some "game" to him, and departs with DarkLizardmon, threatening Takato to stop or he'll take Guilmon away as well. Taking Guilmon back to his hideout, Takato vehemently refuses the thought of Guilmon changing when he digivolves and leaves in a huff, leaving a confused Guilmon behind.

Back at Hypnos, Riley and Tally are tracking another anomaly, but soon notice the tracker going crazy, and realize the anomaly is in the room with them, revealed to be Calumon. While they look for him, Yamaki oversees the analysis of DarkLizardmon, but as the tests proceed, DarkLizardmon screams in pain and pleads to be let go, but soon vanishes, leaving only its data behind, which Yamaki orders destroyed.

Terriermon is busy on Henry's computer when several images begin to pop up on it. Before he can investigate further, Suzy enters, and Terriermon is forced to act like a stuffed animal again to fool her, unable to pursue looking into the images further. After school, Kazu and Kenta refuse to play the Digimon Card Game with Takato and run off, while Takato is also forced to leave after Jeri tries to ask him about Guilmon.

Meanwhile, back at Hypnos, Yamaki is in a video conference call with his superiors regarding the Digimon, and after some discussion about the origins of Digimon and their reasons for why they are appearing now, asks if he can try out the Juggernaut program to deal with them. Though his superiors are hesitant about it, once Yamaki assures they can pass it off as various Internet errors, they agree to a test run, not wanting Juggernaut to be used as a weapon against other countries, so it is to remain classified. After Yamaki agrees and hangs up, he privately calls his bosses "fools" for underestimating the Digimon.

Takato goes back to talk to Guilmon, and is assured that, even when he was Growlmon, he was still Guilmon at heart and always will be, putting Takato's worries at ease.

Yamaki soon runs into Janyu and asks for his help alongside a few of his old friends before departing when Henry shows up.

Renamon and Rika discuss how Renamon can get stronger through other means than digivolving, and Impmon decides to try and defeat Calumon and load his data to get stronger himself.

Soon, Yamaki launches the Juggernaut. The plan being to use what is left of DarkLizardmon's data as a lure to draw the Wild Ones in and destroy them through inverting the flow of the network, but as it is activated, it causes both Terriermon and Guilmon to sense that something strong is coming...a terribly, powerful Digimon...
