Synopsis
This episode begins with the last few scenes of the previous episode including the stement of crests, digivolutions and returning to Apocalymon Apocalymon (Adventure). The full power digiteam attacks him, WarGreymon WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon MetalGarurumon go for the main body while the ulimate Digimon prevent a counterattack by destroying Apocalymon's arms (Magnaangemon opens the Gate of Destiny, which does nothing, and never actually makes contact with Apocalymon). Seeing he is about to be defeated, Apocalymon, in one last ditch efort, begins to detonate his body to "restart" the Digital World. The Digidestined begin to doubt that they can win, but the digivices begin to glow and shot out lasers that create a box around Apocalymon, preventing his eruption from destroying anyone but himself. With Apocalymon defeated, the DigiDestined prepare to spend the rest of their summer in the Digital World, after taking a group shot with all of their digimon allies. However, Gennai informs them that they either had to leave quickly, or remain in the Digital World forever, due to the digital gate closing. After saying their good-byes to their partners - with Kari giving Gatomon her whistle and saying that she is sure that they will meet again - except Mimi, because Palmon hides so she doesn't have to say goodbye. The kids depart for home, with Mimi upset because of Palmon, but as the trolley - the same from the third epsiode - begins to leave, Palmon comes out and says her goodbye to Mimi while running alongside the trolley. The other digimon soon join her and send off their friends, and the digidestined ride into the eclipse.
