Confusion

Towers are being activated and deactivated constantly. Laura follows the group and Jeremy allows her to help, seeing as it's an unusual case. While in the lab she asks Aelita about Franz Hopper. Not getting a decent answer, she goes to do research in the library before confronting Aelita, saying that she knows Franz built the Supercomputer, and that he apparently abandoned his daughter. Aelita replies that her father didn't abandon her, but that he sacrificed himself for her, and asks if Laura's father would do the same. Aelita returns to the lab.

The gang decides they'll have more luck finding out why by going to the Cortex, where XANA currently lives. They happen upon a huge battle between Tyron's Ninjas and XANA's monsters in the Dome, and can't figure out why the two are fighting each other because Tyron's Supercomputer is what's allowing XANA access to the network. Jeremy decides to organize a meeting with Tyron himself to ask some questions. Later that night the gang goes back to the factory, Aelita and Yumi being sent in to talk to Tyron about XANA. Tyron claims he knows nothing about the artificial intelligence, and that there was no way it could be living inside his own supercomputer. He then tries to imprison Aelita and Yumi inside the Cortex, but Jeremy pulls them out just in time. It's then that the six Lyoko Warriors realize they are up against two separate, dangerous threats rather than just one.
