The episode opens with two new Bakugan players discussing what’s great about ability cards: blocking attacks, and using them in combinations. They offer to show Miu (a new characters) some moves, but she’s obviously preoccupied waiting for her little brother to show up. Masquerade appears out of nowhere: “Waiting won’t bring you anything: you have to make it happen.” He offers the three players to grant any wish if they will use his Doom cards.

Runo and Marucho have gone to the airport to meet Alice, who we find out flew in from Moscow. Marucho says he could have gotten Alice there in half the time on their private plane. Preyas seems smitten with her. She’s brought presents for Preyas and Tigrerra, but they seem less impressed when they discover they’re just battle simulators.

Dan has gotten lost in the airport and is walking in circles with Drago. Runo and Marucho ask Alice why she came to visit them so suddenly and although she tells them she just wanted to see them in person, she’s really worried about what’s going on with her grandfather, Michael.

Just then, the three kids from the start of the episode who have Masquerade’s doom cards appear. By the time Dan reaches the place where his friends were, they’ve all disappeared.

Marucho starts with Aquos Robotallion (310) while Alice is trying to figure out her opponent’s tactics. Their first opponent counters with Darkus Robotallion (310) and then both of them double to 620 Gs. He then adds the ability card that combines Darkus and Aqua and raises his Robotallion to 820 Gs. Marucho‘s Robotallion gets sent to the doom dimension.

Runo plays Haos Saurus (350) and their opponents set a gate card and play Pyrus Serpenoid (320). Marucho wants to fight but Alice cautions him: the others have activated a diagonal relationship between Pyrus and Darkus.

Renewed, Marucho plays Aquas TerrorClaw (290) which is countered by FearRipper (350). Runo opens her gate card which raises her Saurus to 410 and the opponent plays the diagonal relationship ability card Alice warned them about. FearRipper raises to 450 Gs. Saurus gets sent to the doom dimension.

Runo sets another gate card and plays Haos Griffon. The opponents stack two of their Bakugan (the second with a Gargonoid) and reach 620 Gs. Marucho briefly seems worried, but then opens his gate card (tradeoff) which gets rid of any Bakugan with a power level of over 420 Gs. The opponents lose both of their Bakugans.

He reopens with Aquos TerrorClaw (290). His opponent is about play an ability card but Maruko seals it with is own ability card.  We finally hear both opponent’s names: Kosuke and Takashi who let Marucho and Runo know they need to win so Miu can see her brother.

Kosuke plays Robotallion who attacks his own teammate and appears to be winning. Takashi opens his gate card and they switch. Everyone is confused and then Alice says they are trying a “battle sham”. They defeat TerrorClaw who gets sent to the doom dimension.

Kosuke and Takashi rehash the story of Miu, her brother Makoto, and how Masquerade has promised to grant them their wish if they win this fight. Tigrerra asks to be fight to Runo plays her next. They play Falconeer (340). Runo opens the gate card under who Griffon (290) which creates a quartet battle and Preyas and another Bakugan are added to the mix. Runo plays another ability card which makes it 3-on-2 and our heroes win.

The boys want to keep fighting but Miu starts crying and tells them to stop using the Doom card. the boys withdraw the doom cards and are going to leave, but Runo and Marucho convince them to keep playing. We miss seeing the fight and learn that Runo and Marucho won.

Miu thanks the boys for all their help and heads off. We see Masquerade retrieve his doom cards and then Dan meets Makoto! Looks like Miu will see her brother after all. Finally Marucho, Alice, and Runo find Dan. Alice wants to tell them all her about grandfather but Dan interrupts and says they’re searching for Michael already, and not in a good way. They all head over to Runo’s house.
