Overview: After another three-week vacation, the group is still looking for a way to fight X.A.N.A.. X.A.N.A., meanwhile, is trying to destroy Lyoko, preventing them from doing just that. He does so by targeting the core, which contains the code that maintains the virtual world. In a side story, Odd blackmails Jim into asking Principal Delmas to make Odd have the same classes as his friends. Additionally, Yumi decides against having a relationship with Ulrich and decides it would be better if they were just friends. While defending the core, Aelita is suddenly devirtualized by the enemy. However, she still ends up back in the scanners and Jeremy realizes that this is because Aelita is fully human, just like the rest of the group, so she does not need Code: Earth anymore to be materialized on Earth.
