* IDontThinkThatsSuchAGoodIdea: Subtly implied by Jou while he and the others are in a stranger's van (in the original version), when Jou comments that they don't really have a way of knowing if the guy is ''really'' driving them to Odaiba and not somewhere else.

* MrsRobinson: The woman Matt flags down while hitchhiking; she drives a convertible while wearing sunglasses and a low-cut dress. She invites him seductively, and he later tells Tai they couldn't fit in her car.

[[note]]A more platonic theory can also be that when the woman saw Yamato, she might've make the conclusion that he has spent all his allowances and couldn't afford to a bus or sub and with sympathy decides to give him a ride and when Yamato blushes so hard she just can't resist to do a little harmless teasing.[[/note]]

News of [[Recap/DigimonAdventureE29ReturnToHightonViewTerrace Garudamon's defeat of Mammon]] reaches Vamdemon, which tells him that the Chosen have arrived in Japan. Vamdemon's minions up the effort to look for the eighth child, and Vamdemon tells [=PicoDevimon=] that they must find them before the Chosen do.

Although the Chosen now know that the eighth child was someone who witnessed the incident at Hikarigaoka, Koushirou points out that the seven of them were people who had also moved from there to Odaiba after the incident, and therefore the eighth child is likely to also be there.

The kids try to take the train back to Odaiba, but the Digimon have trouble adjusting to the things about the human world and end up causing a fuss. When the kids end up falling asleep and missing their first transfer station, the Digimon choose the worst time to finally be quiet, and the kids end up all the way in Shinjuku.

They try to salvage the situation, but when trying to transfer there, they end up split up when Taichi, Yamato, Sora, and Mimi decide to sneak off and get food for themselves and their Digimon. Jou and Koushirou find them and are angered to find out that the kids have spent their fare money on hamburgers, but are forced to admit they have a point when their own stomachs start grumbling.

Now out of money to use to get to Odaiba, the kids attempt to hitchhike, with... mixed results.

-->'''Yamato''': (puts out hitchhiking gesture)\\
('''A woman in sunglasses and a convertible drives by''')\\
'''Woman in sunglasses''': (beckoning suggestively) Hi. [[MrsRobinson Come on in, little boy]]...\\
(''afterwards'')\\
'''Taichi''': Why did you say no?\\
'''Yamato''': [[SarcasticConfession We couldn't all fit in that car!]]

Eventually, Sora and Mimi's charms attract a stranger in a vehicle who agrees to take them to Odaiba... provided that the boys treat themselves like "extra baggage" who come with Sora and Mimi.[[note]]The implication of hitchhiking and Yamato's incident are censored from the American dub, in which they're picked up by Sora's cousin "Duane"... who treats the boys in the exact same manner.[[/note]]

While the kids hear a news report on the fight between Garudamon and Mammon, yet again blamed on "terrorists", Koromon finds himself [[PottyFailure unable to hold it any longer]], and the very angry driver ends up accidentally pushing Koushirou over a bridge when trying to find out who did it. Motimon is forced to evolve to Tentomon to save Koushirou, and behind them a Gesomon emerges from the water to attack them.

The driver makes a run for it, and Gomamon evolves to Ikkakumon to take care of the Gesomon, while a large number of humans nearby witness but [[WeirdnessCensor blame on some kind of show]]. The kids ride Ikkakumon back to Odaiba, but [=PicoDevimon=] catches sight of them and goes to report it to Vamdemon...

!!Tropes
* {{Bowdlerise}}:
** The English dub alters the hitchhiking scene by changing it from Mimi and Sora charming a passing stranger into letting them hitch a ride (which, given that they're canonically 10 and 11 years old respectively, has some rather... [[PaedoHunt unfortunate implications]]) into Sora talking her cousin, who just so happened to be passing by, into driving them home. The interaction where Matt (who is canonically 11) declines a ride from a woman who's implied to have less than unimpeachable reasons for wanting to let them hitchhike is cut for similar reasons, and the scene is changed to Matt simply not having any ideas for getting home.
** All references to terrorists are also cut; the disasters are stated to be due to unknown causes, although a couple witnesses claim to have seen giant monsters fighting.
* ChekhovsGunman: See that short Digimon who looks like a wizard? Yeah. He'll be important later.
* MrsRobinson: The woman Matt flags down while hitchhiking; she drives a convertible while wearing sunglasses and a low-cut dress. She invites him seductively, and he later tells Tai they couldn't fit in her car.
* PottyFailure: Koromon, having eaten too much, finds himself unable to hold it in and dumps a load in the car.
* RememberTheNewGuy: The American dub does this to the stranger who picks up the [=DigiDestined=], making him Sora's cousin Duane.
