Full Recap
Mantid uses Aqune to steal the Oracle’s power causing the Oracle herself to weaken, he then appears before them as his renewed self. Mantid boldly commands the riders to bow down to him Hunter tries to object but Grasshop doesn’t let him. Grasshop then steps forward and pleads with Mantid to do what wishes to him if he would spare the Spider Riders.

Mantid almost kills Grasshop but is stopped by Buguese who orders him to keep the promise he made to his people. When Mantid refuses Buguese then attempts to attack Mantid with Dark Opal, but is defeated. Mantid grants some of that power to Aqune through enhancing her mask in order to have her defeat the Spider Riders. Buguese awakens to discover Stags saved his life and holds no ill will toward him for what happened in Nuuma. Buguese plans on facing Mantid again, but not before righting one last wrong. Meanwhile, Aqune is stronger now thanks to a portion of the Oracle's power granted to her by Mantid.

Aqune dominates all of the Spider Riders and moves in to deliver the final blow to Hunter. But Buguese himself restrains her long enough to remove her mask and free her from Mantid's control. Buguese takes the mask and uses the Oracle power within it to restart Dark Opal. With Dark Opal Buguese flies back to Fortress Mantid, and crashes into it.
