It's Appliyama 470 election time, and Eri is nervous thinking about where she may place. The top nine are considered the Nine Gods.
Elsewhere, Rei uses the elections as a distraction so he and Hackmon can break into L Corp. They make their way to a secluded room with a laptop belonging to Knight. Rei is shocked to learn that Knight is working with Leviathan. Suddenly, the floor gives way, and both he and Hackmon fall into the deep web.
Back to the elections, idol after idol has been given their rank until it boils down to the last 10. After a grueling wait, Eri is announced as ranking number 10, which is great since her last ranking was 250. Realizing that she has made many people smile, Eri jumps on a chair and gives her "explosive punch" acceptance speech.
Once her speech concluded, Eri's mother called to congratulate her. Seems the whole office was watching, and Eri was emotionally touched. Knight shows up and applauds her asking if she will attend a party on his yacht. Thinking all of Appliyama 470 will be there, Eri accepts.
At Kashinoki Books, Haru and friends have arranged for a little party for Eri, when they hear a noise from another room. Rei and Hackmon have escaped the deep web. When Haru asks how Rei got his wounds, he is told about Knight working with Leviathan a.k.a. L Corp. Astra worries about Eri. She text that she would be going to a party on Knight's boat, but now they are unable to get a hold of her. Since she mentioned boat, they head to the Ocean.
Returning to Eri, she looks very pretty in a dress supplied by Knight, but she is worried as none of the other idols are there. Knight says it's just you and I (Uh Oh!). He asks Eri to join him in searching for Bootmon...."Appli Driver." Yikes!! Then he tells her to look around and reveals that the L in L Corp stands for Leviathan. Eri refuses to get ahead as an idol by helping Leviathan. Knights suited goons show up, but Eri is able to get to her cabin, changes, and get Dokamon. She contacts Haru, who has Gatchmon locate it.
Haru, Astra, and Rei take a swan boat to the Yacht's location. They are in shock when they see Eri jump from one of the top decks of the boat. The appli drivers are re-united, but Knight can't have that. He dumps them in an AR Field where they must face the Ultimate 4!!!
NOTE: Best episode in a long time. However, Yuujin is mysteriously missing, and Haru was unable to get a hold of him.
