[ Evil laugh ]
- [Grasshop]: What a glorious day!
[ Still laughing ] I can't stop laughing!
And why should I stop?
Beerain and Buguese were both defeated by that Earthen brat!
[ Laughing ]
They can't look down on me anymore!
Now the mighty have fallen!
Oh! There he is now! I should leave him alone... not!
Hmm! Hmm! Hmm! Oh, mighty Buguese!
You must feel terrible!
Imagine someone with your stature and power defeated by an Earthen!
I understand, you don't want to talk about losing
to the Spider Riders and needing Aqune to save you like a hatchling!
[ Growling ]
- [Shadow]: Hunter, did you see that? - [Hunter]: Duh, big explosion!
- [Shadow]: No! The Mantech Robot opens its armour when it shoots!
- [Venus]: That's the vulnerable point. - [Corona]: We aim there!
Ready.. Venus?
I got him! Keep going!
- What?! - [Shadow]: It's now or never!
Go! - Ah! Ah!
Aaah!!!
This one's for the Oracle!
Open wide!
- Impossible! - Ah!
- Hee hee hee! Oh! Don't feel so bad!
It could happen to anyone, right, Buguese?
It hurts me to see you suffer so.
If it were my choice, I would get revenge for you right now!
- [Mantid]: Perhaps I should give you the opportunity you crave!
[ Mantid laughing ]
- [Grasshop]: Boss, is that you?
- As if you didn't know!
- Ah! My Lord Mantid!
- I'm touched by your concern.
So I will grant you your request, little Grasshop.
- That is most generous! Rest assured, great Mantid,
I will succeed where poor Buguese has failed you!
I will finally show you my true worth!
- I look forward to it.
- Me too! [ Discrete laugh ]
You'd better watch out, Buguese.
By the time I am finished, the Big Four will have a new Number One!
[ Evil laugh ] Number One!
- Annoying fool...
- [Mantid]: Buguese, you will intensify
your search for the key
while Grasshop plays with the Spider Riders.
- Yes, Great Mantid!
- [Child]: Ready? Set? Go!
- [Children] Yay! Throw it here!!
[ Laughter ]
- Throw it here! - Throw it here!
- [Hotarla]: Whatcha watching, Sparkle?
- Looks like fun.
[ Sighing ] Uh?
Don't worry, Hotarla. I have lots of things to do here.
What would I do with a dumb old sparkling sphere?
- Hmm...
Look at her. No one her own age to play with.
Oh! My poor sister.
You deserve to have some fun, Sparkle!
I will find a way to get you one of those sparkling spheres!
[ Knocking ] Huh?
- Hunter! How long have you been there?
- Not long. What's up?
- Well... - She wants a sparkling sphere?
- Yes. All the children in town seem to be playing
with one of those pretty, sparkling balls, except for her.
Without one, Sparkle feels left out, Hunter.
- So what's the big problem? You're rich!
Just go out and buy one for her.
- I'd love to, but they're not for sale anywhere.
I sent an attendant down to the plaza
to ask the children where they came from,
but they won't tell anyone where they got them.
- [Shadow]: Children love to keep secrets
from adults. They know it drives them crazy!
- So true.
And I haven't got the heart to wreck their fun.
There's nothing I can do.
- Re-lax! I'll find
one of those glowing spheres for Sparkle, Prince!
- Huh? Are you sure?
- Hmm, hmm. Spider in!
Hey, how hard could it be to find one for a Spider Rider?
- [Shadow]: "How hard could it be to find one for a Spider Rider?"
Do you ever think before you speak?
You have no idea where those sparkling spheres are, do you?
- Actually, I don't.
[ Laughter ] Hmm?
[ Laughter ]
But I know who does, Shadow!
Hey there, kid, that's a really cool sparkling sphere.
Where can I get one of those?
- You can't! It's a secret.
Only little kids know where to get them and we're not telling any grown-ups.
- [Other child]: Yeah! You're way too old. Goodbye!
- Hey, wait up, kids!
I'm not that old, honest!
- Wow! You're really a pest! Hey look!
- Hey, is that a real manacle?
- This? Yes!
- So you're actually a...
real live Spider Rider, mister?
- Hmm...
[ Soft laugh ] Hmm, hmm.
- We're sorry we kept our secret from you, Mister.
- Yeah, sorry. We wouldn't have tried to ditch you
if you'd told us you were a Spider Rider.
- There's a spider in there?
I'm going to be a Spider Rider when I grow up.
- You guys are embarrassing me.
- [Shadow]: Hunter. These kids look up to Spider Riders.
Try not to do anything foolish to spoil their respect, okay?
- Yes, mother. It looks like we've found the place.
- Here it is! This is where we found them!
- Whoa!
- All the sparkling spheres were buried in the rocks.
We keep it a secret 'cause if we tell the grown-ups,
they won't let us come back.
They'll just say it's not safe.
- They're probably right.
I get it. Mystery solved!
- What are you going to do? We already got the spheres
that were safe to reach. The rest are down too deep.
- It's too hard. You'd have to have
really long arms to reach those spheres.
- I have the next best thing.
I'll just use my spider. - [Both kids]: Huh?!
- Spider Out!
- It... It's a real live... - ...Battle Spider!
- Shadow, meet your fan club.
- Let's just get this over with quickly.
- Oooh...
Hmm... Check it out, Sparkle!
- Ah!...
- Hey!... - Here! Your very own sparkling sphere,
just like the others!
- A sparkling sphere!
- You know, sis, I went to an awful lot of trouble
to find one of those for you!
- Ahem!... I'm the one who went to all the trouble!
- But not until I asked you to.
The whole idea to send you to fetch one came from me!
- You're all talk, no action!
- [Both]: Grrr!
- Thank you both! - [Both]: Huh?
- Oh Lumen! Oh Hunter! Thank you both!
I love it! I love it so much! [ Laugh ]
- [Both]: Oh... [ Laughing ]
- Hunter! Catch it!
Ah... Pretty!
[ Straining ]
[ Sparkle laughing ] - Your turn!
- Ah! Oh!...
Ah! Ah! Ha! Ha!
- Nice catch!
[ Laughter ] - Are you ready? Here!
- So that's a sparkling sphere, is it?
Princess Sparkle sure loves it.
All the children seem to as well.
- Hmm... It's nice to hear the Princess laugh again.
- Hmm... I think the Prince agrees with you!
- Are you happy now, little sister?
[ Laughing ]
- Wow! - Over here.
- Ah! - Ah!
- That's a good catch!
[ Evil laugh ]
- This is even better than I could have hoped for!
Even I didn't expect the Spider Riders themselves
to be charmed by my sparkling spheres!
I can't wait! They've got a surprise coming tonight!
- [Sparkle]: Hmm... It's pretty,
but I think my sphere needs more pizzazz!
Hmm... Ah!
I've got it! - You do?
[ Laugh ] - I sure do. Watch.
- You see that, Hotarla?
My sparkling sphere looks even prettier now!
- Oh yes, that's much nicer, Sparkle!
- It needs some pink.
And some green.
Yellow.
And purple and silver and... Oh!... Oh no!
Adding all those colours turned it black! It's ruined!
[ Hotarla sighing ]
Hunter and my brother went to a lot of trouble to get this for me.
[ Sighing ]
- What are you going to do, Princess? - I don't know.
I'll tell them tomorrow.
[ Giggling ]
Oh well! Someone will know what to do! Good night, Hotarla.
- At last, they're all asleep!
But not for long!
[ Evil laugh ]
Wakey, Wakey!
I am so clever I want to kiss myself!
[ Evil laugh while kissing himself. ]
- Oh... Oh...
- [Other kids]: Oh...
Oh...
- [Guard]: Corporal! Something is happening to the children!
- ♪ Calling all Spider Riders ♪
- Huh? - What's going on?
Hunter, look at their eyes. They're under a spell!
- [Grasshop]: Ooh! Did you figure that out
by yourself, Spider Rider? - [Both]: Huh?
- I'm up here! Miss me?!
- So you're behind this, Grasshop!
- What have you done to these children?
[ Laughing ]
- If you liked what I did in round one,
you'll love the next phase of my plan!
Round.. two!
- O-oh...
Huh?
- [Both]: Whoa!
- Please, Spider Riders,
don't give up without a fight!
- Not on your life. Shadow, Spider out!

Spider Rider!
Let's ride! - [Shadow]: Yes!
- [All kids]: Oh... - Go ahead! I dare you!
- Huh?! Look out!
- Ho! Ho! Ho!
What's wrong, Spider Riders?
Afraid of hurting your hatchlings if you attack?
Too bad! - [Both]: Oooh!...
- [Shadow]: Hang on! - Oh!...
What goes up must come... down!
- [Shadow]: No! Aaah!...
That bug is getting under my exo-skeleton!
- Yeah!
- What cowardice!
- My Bug Scout leader called it being prepared!
Round... three!
- Sparkle! Wake up!
- Hotarla? What's wrong? Oh...
Am I still dreaming?
No! My sparkling sphere! Oh!...
Come back here!
I wish I'd thought this through just a... little more!
- Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh! Princes Sparkle, hang on!
- Huh?
This thing is pumping some serious iron!
- That's it! Grow! My beautiful Sphere Beetle.
Huh? Something is coming!
What is that?
- Wah!...
Wah!
- He's got Princess Sparkle!
- Ah! Oh...
Oh, oh... Hunter! Igneous! Help me!
- How low can you sink, Grasshop?
Does the Big Four need to hide
behind little children now?
- Me? Hide? Why I'm right here!
The Princess is more like a bonus prize!
- Man, that does it! - [Shadow]: Go!
Endanger innocent children, would you?
- [Grasshop]: Thanks for the suggestion!
- Shadow! - I know what I'm doing!
Ally oop!
- Ah! Ah!
- Sparkle! - Help!
- Are you all right!? - Hunter, thank you!
Uh... Hunter, there's something I have to tell--
- Hunter, we're going in!
- You're too big to hide behind kids now!
- Plenty of room!
- Hunter, you know that... that sparkling sphere you gave to me?
- Princess Sparkle, come with me. - But!
- Grrr! Now to finish you off!
- Oh, didn't I tell you?
I have another surprise for you!
Round... four!
- [Both]: What!? [ Thud ]
Oh!... - Hunter!
- What am I not seeing?
- Some kind of camouflage!
- You're finally catching on!
Who needs hostages when I have an invisible Sphere Beetle to play with?!
Now, say goodbye!
I am going to destroy everyone of you!
- Huh? [ Thud ] - [Both]: Aaah!!!
[ Thud ] Aaah!!!
[ Thud ] Aaah!!!
Ah!
- Hunter! [ Sparkle panting ]
That's enough. Leave the rest to me.
- No way, I need to do this.
They disguised themselves as toys.
- They used the children as shields.
Such cowardice is unforgivable.
- [Both]: Show no mercy!
- But how will you see it?
- I'm sorry, Hunter.
- Huh? About what?
- Well, I painted the sphere you gave me
with lots of colours,
and then it turned into a black sphere.
- The sparkling sphere?
- Turned black?
- Yes, look there!
- Hunter, the sphere!
- Bingo, that's our target. Yeah!
Thanks a lot, Sparkle. - Huh?
- Ready, Shadow, let's ride! - You got it!
- You're gluttons for punishment.
- Hmm, hmm...
Piece of cake... Take that! - Oh no!
- Aaah!!!
- No, it can't be?!
- What happened? Why am I here?
- Ah! Ah?... [ All kids are waking up. ]
That's not fair! I was supposed to win.
I was going to crush you and have you beg for mercy
and then I was going to be Great Mantid's favourite. You're so mean!
- Nice work, Hunter!
- Ha! Ha! Arachna Power!
- Arachna Power! [ Laughing ]
[Sparkle]: Catch this, Hunter!
[ Sparkle laughing ]
- I got it! I got it!
Oh!... Oh!
[ Giggling ]
- Igneous, next time Sparkle wants a new toy or outfit,
remind be to send someone to the store.
No more mysterious caves. Okay? They wear me out.
- The Princess. She has energy to spare.
Let's go, Arachna Power!
- [Igneous]: She'll grow up to become a great Spider Rider!
