Gomamon tells Joe to lighten up on things sometimes. Joe is freezing. The whole group is caught in a very cold area of the Digi World. They tell each other to think warm thoughts. Someone suggests that it might snow any minute now and that they can throw snowballs and build a snowman. "What do you think Snowmon is?" Gomamon asks quizzically. "A digimon from their world," Gabumon replies. The Digimon are quizzical about what snow is. Izzy tries hard to explain it to them and resulting in snow being food. Joe feels left out, so he complains. He complains that he's cold and if they play in the snow they'll get even colder. "...always safe than sorry, think first." that's Joe's motto. Tiny white sprinkles start to fall. It's snow. The group realizes that their sneakers will not protect them and that their toes will get numb. It's impossible to continue. Mimi, TK, Patamon and Palmon are all running back and forth in front of the group and having fun. Agumon smells something, could it be food? Biyomon smells it too, it's scent is familiar. They see steam rising up not too far away. "Geyser!" Joe exclaims. It must be hot springs.
The group arrive to the hot springs. They find the water bubbling hot, the water is too hot to go in. They would get cooked. "Look there!" TK exclaims. They can't believe it. It just can't be. Are their eyes playing jokes on them? It's...It's....a refridgerator!
They run up to it and open the door. Eggs! Cartons of eggs on every shelf! Joe warns Tai to becareful. Tai volunteers to be the guinea pig. Tai says that if he turns purple then they'll all know it's no good. They all split up and prepare for their feast of eggs. Sora is cooking the eggs sunny side up with Biyomon flapping her wings to keep the fire going. Izzy and Tai are finding wood. Joe's carving chopsticks glumly. Gabumon and Agumon are each carving bowls out of wood. They all haven't had this kind of a meal for a long time. The meal is ready. They all sit down. Joe is too worried to eat, he misses home. Everyone's spirit is down. It's been four days now. Is there a search party out? "Cheer up, tell me how you like the eggs and I'll do my best," Sora tries to change the subject.
~plain salt and pepper for Joe
~Tai would like soy sauce on his eggs
~Matt loves salsa on his eggs
~mustard and jelly beans are Izzy's favorite
~every gags but TK think's Izzy's idea of a perfect egg won't be so bad
~Mimi likes maple syrup and cherries on top
Joe just lost his appetitie, "Don't be so hard on yourself," Gomamon says. Tai and Matt hear this and laugh. "I'm afraid Joe isn't the kind of guy that's very adaptable." Gomamon agrees, "He is a stick in the mud." Joe is angry to hear this from Gomamon. The two argue. "Stuffy!" Gomamon shoots. "Practical" Joe shoots back. "You wanna fight?!!" Gomamon challenges. Matt manages to stop the two from arguing. "I am calm. He's the one who's stingy!" Joe says. He goes off on his own.
Joe feels that he has the heavy burden of watching over everyone. He is sad and throws rocks into the hot springs. He contemplates, he's the only one that's really opening his eyes and being cautious. He returns back to the group and finds Tai and Matt arguing. Tai wants to climb Infinity Mountain (The huge grey mountain, in the center of the island) He thinks it'll be a good look out. Matt doesn't want to go, he thinks it's too big of a gamble. Tai is angry and clenches his fists and calls Matt a "wimp". Matt tells Tai to put his fists down and stop thnking you have to bully to be leader. Joe moves in and tells them to calm down. Tai and Matt lets Joe decide. Joe is surprised they asked him. He explains that Tai is right about the look out. But Matt is also right about climbing the Mountain, because it's dangerous. Joe does some deep thinking. "Your just a big old chicken!" Tai says to Matt. "You better take that back, " Matt glares at Tai. "Now grow up!" Sora bursts. She says it's better to talk about this tomorrow. It's getting dark and everyone needs some rest. They all head for the caves, inside it's warm and roomy.
Time passes. The fire is almost burnt out and everyone's fast asleep. 'Someone's gonna get hurt if I don't do something fast,' Joe thinks in his mind. 'I couldn't even stop the fight and got myself involved'. He feels that everyone's lives depend on him and that he's everyone's protector. He gets up and walks out of the cave and look at Infinity Mountain. He's good at climbing and he decides to climb it himself. He walks along the trail. "Whoa there!" Gomamon comes out of the cave. Joe tells him to go back. Gomamon doesn't want to, he tells Joe that he has some businness up on the Mountain. Joe lets him stay. "Sometimes you just have to trick him" Gomamon whispers to himself. "What was that?" Joe asks. "Oh nothing."
They climb up the Mountain. They grow tired. "I can give you a hand," Gomamon suggests. "You call that a hand?" Joe says. "Watch it," Gomamon shoots back at Joe. "Can't you lighten up?" Joe tells Gomamon. They alreayd climbed half way and they stop to rest. They feel this shaking. Could it be a volcanoe?! No it isn't. The side of the Mountain open and a bunch of black gears shoot out. "Let's go," Joe says, eager to climb to the top. They hear a sound from the skies. They look up to the moon. The moon is shining bright and round. A figure appears. "Oh just great, a flying horse with a mask," Joe sighs. The animation zooms in on Unimon. Gomamon tells Joe that it's a wise old digimon. And that he never knew it lived there in the Mountain. It's very gentle and not much of a talker. Unimon looks much like a unicorn, except with a metal mask and horn on it's face. Battle scars line the beasts broad shoulders. Gomamon suggests that Unimon will tell them what they need to know. A whirring sound is heard from the skies. What could it be? It's a black gear. The black gear is going straight towards Unimon and crashes into on of it's old battle scars. Unimon looks over at Joe and Gomamon, it's eyes red and raging mad.
Sora wakes up, the sun is just out. She notices Joe is missing and steps outside of the cave. She sees a message scrawled on the floor. "I'll be back in a little while, please wait for me -Joe". Sora is worried and has a feeling Joe is climbing Mount Infinity. "Hey everybody wake up, I think Joe's in trouble!"
"Do something Gomamon!" Joe demands. "What?" Gomamon replies back. "You aren't planning on leaving?" Unimon says menacingly. It charges up for an attack. "Aerial Attack!" A beam of energy shoots forth. Birdramon appears and knocks it towards Unimon. Hanging on Birdramon is Tai, Sora and Agumon. "We've come to save you" Unimon gets up and charges for an Aerial Attack. He blasts it at Birdramon. Birdramon is hit and falls down the Mountain. Sora goes down the mountain to check on Birdramon. A digi-vice appears on the screen and....Agumon digi-volve to...GREYMON! Greymon fires his Digi Nova Blast, but Unimon is quick and dodges. Unimon bashes into Greymon knocking Greymon into the rock face. "Greymon you gonna be alright?" Tai asks, concerned. "I'm styling dude," Greymon blasts another Nova Blast. Still Unimon dodges, he is just too quick. Unimon blasts an Aerial Attack on Greymon and flies up. He sees Sora, "another uninvited guest?" Birdramon senses Sora in danger. "Meteor wings!" and blasts a shower of fireballs toward Unimon. Unimon dodges and knocks Birdramon down with Sora. Joe spots the gear sticking out from Unimon. "I'll get it." He jumps on top of Unimon and caught him by surprise. Joe clutches onto the gear but it's stuck. Unimon is trying desperatly to get Joe off his back. Joe is determined to get the gear out of Unimon. Unimon gives a tremendous buck and Joe falls off of Unimon and plummets to the ground. "NO!!!" A screen goes black and a digi-vice appears. Data is spinning in circles and inputs itself into Gomamon. Gomamon digi-volve to.....IKKAKUMON! Ikkakumon's appearance looks like a shaggy sheperd dog with walrus teeth and a horn protruding out of it's forehead. Joe lands on Ikkakumon. "Hold on tight Joe, cause we're going for a ride!"
Unimon attacks and Ikkakumon just dodges it. "Harpoon Torpedo!" Ikkakumon's aims his horn at Unimon and dozens of horns shoot forward. Unimon dodges them. The horns open up and reveal a missle, the missle turns around and hits Unimon square in the back. Ikkakumon caught Unimon by surprise! The gear is knocked out and disinagrates. Ikkakumon did it! Everyone digi-volves back to their normal selves.
Everyone praises Joe for having the guts to climb Infinity Mountain and everyone thanks Gomamon. Joe's bravery made him digi-volve, one of the members of the group says. "That's not why, I just had nothing to do. He would of fallen on his head. That's why! Hey if you don't believe me, you wanna fight?" Gomamon says. "Heroes don't fight. Your the best Gomamon," Joe says, proud of Gomamon. Gomamon blushes. Biyomon sees this, "Gomamon's embarrassed!" she says in a teasing tune. The group decide to go up Mount Infinity. They make it to the top and there just really isn't anything. Most of the island is grass, a quarter of it is snow and less than a quarter of it is a rock cliff. Will they ever find their way home?
