[edit] Summary
The group, minus Koji, arrive at a Wind Factory and see a large group of Kokuwamon at work. Knowing that there must be food there, they rush to enter the factory and, once they convince the Minomon guards that they are there for a tour, are allowed in. While on the tour, J.P. goes to the bathroom and on his way back to the group, hears some screaming. Before he can investigate, the others call him back. They finally go to the cafeteria, but are disappointed to find that the only available food are batteries. On their way out, the Digidestined spot the huts that the Kokuwamon live in and learn of their poor living conditions. When J.P. suggests that they leave, Takuya becomes annoyed, knowing that the Goblimon will only track them down and destroy them. The Kokuwamon point out that they aren't much of fighters, but come to realize that their options are either stay and fight or run away. Takuya, Zoe, and Tommy all say that they'll help them fight, but J.P. still disagrees. The Kokuwamon begin to rally, but a Minomon overhears them and reports the potential rebellion.
Takuya makes a plan and at nightfall, everyone goes into action. J.P. leads the young and elderly Kokuwamon out of the factory, but when a young Kokuwamon attempts to join the battle, J.P. stops him and goes in his place. J.P. finds Takuya fighting Snimon and uses a nearby wrecking ball to distract him. A wall is knocked in and the Spirit of Thunder is revealed. J.P. spirit evolves to Beetlemon and, although ecstatic, must fight Snimon. After a brief struggle, Beetlemon is victorious and purifies Snimon. Now freed, the Kokuwamon go home and the Digidestined continue on their way.
