Full Recap[]
While trying to figure out which way they should go, Hare suggests that they look for a river. Golem tosses Suezo up and he spots a river, but lands far behind them. The Searchers head there, but after hearing Suezo calling for helping, they had to stop to help him. Holly apologizes to him for almost leaving him behind. Hare reminds them that during a fight against the Jells, Suezo hadn't been much help. Tiger and Suezo get into a fight, but when Tiger hears rustling nearby, he pushes Suezo out of the way as rock-like monsters land behind them, who have Baddie's crests. Suezo accuses Tiger of cheating, all while not noticing the Baddies until they introduce themselves as Dokoos, sent by Gali. Suezo tries to fight them, but is overpowered. The others step in and manage to defeat the Dokoos, forcing them to retreat. The Searchers then build a raft and as they prepare to leave, Golem wishes them luck, but Genki, unwilling to leave Golem behind, attempts to get him on the raft, but his actions cause Golem to fall into the water, which he finds uncomfortable. After helping Golem out, they continue their way down the river, not realizing that the Dokoos are watching them.
After a while, they see strange rock-like objects in the water up ahead, which they don't recognize. The objects are revealed to be the Dokoos, who leap into the air and land in the water around them. They all lock arms and surround the raft, forcing them to change course. The Dokoos eventually let go and leave. The Searchers are confused by their actions, but they soon realize that the Dokoos had led them to a waterfall, which Hare had suspected. They try to row away from it, but the current is too strong, and they are eventually swept over it. Suezo, realizing that he must do something, engulfs everyone in a field of yellow light and shouts "Teleport!", causing them to disappear. The Dokoos, believing the Searchers have perished, attempt to report Gali of their success, but this celebration is short-lived when the Searchers all reappear above them. Genki was confused by what happened, but Mocchi revealed that they teleported. Genki realizes that this is Suezo's doing; it turns out he can teleport. Genki is grateful of him, but they suddenly have to clear a path when Golem suddenly drops down. The Dokoos, outraged that their plan failed, attack them, but are once again defeated and have to retreat a second time. Suezo then tries to teleport again, but for some reason, nothing happens. Eventually, the others get bored and leave despite Suezo's protests.
