Plot
The Brawlers decide to track down Webmaster Joe, thinking he is a spy for Masquerade. They find out that he is in the local hospital in Cure City, so they go there to find him. When they get there, Dan rushes into the elevator, dropping Drago and getting separated from him. Later, a boy in hospital pajamas confronts Dan, giving him back Drago and revealing that he is Webmaster Joe. Dan quickly challenges Joe to a battle. To Dan's surprise, this was Joe's first Bakugan Brawl. Just when the battle is starting to get exciting, Joe suddenly faints and is taken back to his hospital room. When Joe wakes up, he tells the Brawlers that he is not telling anything to Masquerade; confirming the information the Brawlers discovered on his computer. The Brawlers believed him and ask him to join them in their fight to stop Masquerade and Naga from destroying both Earth and Vestroia.
