Alice and Runo are chatting before bed; Runo is telling Alice how happy her parents are that she’s staying and how she’s going to get all the attention. Alice has some flashbacks and we are reminded she still hasn’t told anyone that Michael is her grandfather yet. She’s about to tell Runo, but Runo’s already asleep.

Meanwhile, we find out that Billy (Julie’s friend) has risen to 10th place in the rankings in just a few days. He arrives at a huge mansion by limo and enters to find other Bakugan players there. It turns out there’s a party for the top ten – he meets #2 (Klaus), #3 (Chan), #4 (Julio) and #5 (Komba O’Charlie). They are all a little confused as to what kind of party it is since there aren’t any decorations. The five of them decide to have a battle.

Klaus decides it’s going to be an speed battle and Billy changes it to a Royal Battle. The gate card is set and Billy opens with Cycloid and an ability card. Charlie plays Harpus with the Feather Blast ability card. Chan plays Face of Rage and Klaus plays his Singing Voice abillity card with Sirenoid when Masquerade shows up in the battle and the floor beneath them disappears to reveal Naga. He tells them to all kneel before their new master (him).

Masquerade explains why he’s brought all the brawlers to the mansion – to get rid of Dan and the Bakugan Battle Brawlers. Everyone seems pretty excited (including Billy).

Alice has overslept and apologizes to Runo’s parents. Runo’s mom says Alice should take it easy on her day off. Apparently Runo got sent to the store; Alice is unhappy because she finally found the courage to tell Runo about Michael and know she’s not around. She decides to tell Dan but imagines how mad he would get and decides against it.

Instead she goes to visit Marucho, who tells her he would have gladly sent a car to pick her up. He’s pretty excited she came to visit him all by herself but is really surprised that she wants to confess something to him. He starts daydreaming and only hears the last part of her sentence “…my grandfather Michael.” She repeats the entire sentence and Marucho screams.

Runo, Dan, Julie, and Shun are told the news and they are all quite surprised. Alice tells them the day the cards appeared was the same day her grandfather disappeared. The about six months later, he re-appeared and seemed very surprised to see the Bakugan card. When Dan met Drago, her grandfather disappeared again.

Dan thanks Alice for sharing her secret and she’s surprised that he’s not overreacting about the news. Julie thinks that Runo and Alice are just trying to get Dan’s attention. Drago asks Alice if she’s heard about Vestroia collapsing and she suggests they go to Moscow to search her grandfather’s labratory.

Marucho‘s butler picks up Dan at his home and tells his parents not to worry about Dan going to Moscow. Dan, Runo, and Marucho board the private jet and fly to Shun’s dojo where he latches onto the plane from his rooftop. During the flight Marucho apologises for the lack of an inflight movie and offers them peanuts and moist towelettes instead. They land at Alice’s grandfather’s labratory.

The five Brawlers enter and find the place surprisingly clean, but empty. Alice says she drops by every now and then to clean. They split up to see what they can find. Meanwhile, Drago and Tigrerra are discussing about feeling something weird since they arrived. Preyas says he’s just been feeling jumpy (as he jumps higher and higher) and lands on a control pad button. A video of Michael G (Alice’s grandfather) starts playing on the screen.

The video says that extraordinary things have been going on. For the last few years, he was developing a dimension transporter system. One day, something unusual happened, and he was transported to the Bakugan dimension. He had inadvertently opened a gate to Vestroia. Michael meets Naga who shows him a card and then he gets sent back to the human world. Apparently six months had passed, which was much faster than in Vestroia.

While he had been away, the cards fell to earth and kids created the Bakugan game. He was distressed to discover that the Bakugan were actually the living creatures he had seen in Vestroia. For some reason the creatures can only stay in the human world in the form of a ball. It is only on the battlefield, which is the same dimension they are used to, that they can return to their original form.

The video seems to have ended and the five Brawlers start talking among themselves, but then the video restarts and we see an evil form of Alice’s grandfather speaking. It turns out he is now called Hal G and tells them that both the human world and Vestroia will be destroyed by the power of the great Naga. Apparently he’s under the influence of the Minus power, which was the strange feeling the Bakugan got when entering the lab.

Marucho manages to find an image of Masquerade in the video and Shun realises they’ve been working together. Alice is distraught to learn her grandfather is up to no good and Drago points out that Naga controls Masquerade and Hal G. Julie’s Bakugan suggests that Bakugan valley might hold the key. The brawlers get back onto the plane and head out. Shun pauses while getting on the plane, but we’re not sure why. After they take off, we see the top five players (all cloaked) watching them leave.
