ANNOUNCER: Previously on Ninjago:
Jay? Nya?
I'm undercover.
KAI: You can get close to Clouse's spell book.
Get that spell!
Master Cole has gone missing.
Aah! My leg!
NYA: Someone in your circle of trust is a spy.
Who do you think it is?
We will break up the ninja forever.
* Jump up, kick back Whip around and spin *
* Ninja, go

[***]
What are you looking at, Zippy?
The next one out of the tournament.
Uh, heh.
Why so scared to show us your back, Shadow?
Worried we're gonna find a tattoo
and know you're working for Chen?
I hope this next fight is between you and me
because I'm gonna put you on your back.
[MR. PALE WHISTLES]
Do you mind?
Tensions are high.
LLOYD: Yeah, not as high as we are now.
Can hardly see the island from up here.
I've had enough of this.
I can't stand heights. Where's Chen?
[GRUNTS]
How do I know if this thing's on?
Oh, oh, oh, I see, the light.
Oh, oh, I'm on?
Right now? Ahem, ahem.
Hello, final eight.
I see you are all eager for the tournament to commence
so one of you can win my Staff of Elements.
Instead of fighting for a Jade Blade,
today you will be fighting for something different.
[***]
Nya.
You know her? It's my sister.
CHEN: We have an uninvited guest on the island.
And she must be holding the proof that will stop Chen.
Find her and you will automatically move on--
The spell he plans to use when he takes our powers.
--to the final round.
He wants us all to hunt her down?
She won't stand a chance.
Then we have to find her before anyone else does.
CHEN: In 10 seconds the bottom will drop.
[ALL GASP]
But to show you I'm not a bad man,
I've given you eight parachutes.
[ALL SCREAMING]
Sensei Garmadon is there?
Shoot, that makes nine.
Oh well, I was never good at math. Heh. Toodle-oo.
[***]
LLOYD: That guy's love for trap doors
is seriously getting on my nerves!
[ALL SCREAMING]
[GRUNTING]
[LAUGHING]
JAY: Lloyd, use your energy dragon!
[GRUNTING]
I can't!
I can't get it to work!
[SCREAMING]
[JAY WHIMPERING]
Get your own chute, lead foot.
[WHIMPERING]
Aah!
I got one! I got one! Ha-ha-ha!
[PANTING]
[GRUNTING]
GARMADON: Your powers don't work
because you aren't controlling your fear. Focus.
[GRUNTING]
[LAUGHING]
[GASPS]
GARMADON: Control your fear.
Don't let it control you.
Center yourself.
[GRUNTING]
Huh?
Whoa!
KAI: There's only one parachute left.
LLOYD: We'll share.
They're only built for one.
This is an easy decision. You're right.
[GARMADON GASPS]
What have you done?
Control my fear.
[RUSTLING]
[GROWLING]
[***]
[GROWLING]
[***]
KAI: Huh. He made it!
Ha, ha! Of course he did!
GARMADON: Thattaboy!
This doesn't look good.
[***]
KAI: Whoa!
KAI: Ow! Oh, ow, ow, ow!
[RUMBLING]
Hmm.
[GRUNTING]
Aah! Ugh.
[GROANS]
Argh. That did not feel good.
CHEN: Hail, combatants,
I have left a few treats to help you in the hunt.
I hope you use them wisely.
Clouse, why have I never had a mobile base?
It's my new favorite toy. Hoo, hoo.
There's so many buttons and surprises.
[CHEN LAUGHS]
Like I'll ever trust a treat from you, Chen!
Ouch, ouch, ouch.
[***]
Okay, maybe just a small treat.
Ouch, ouch, ouch.
MECH: Welcome, Master of Lightning.
Aah. Suddenly, my leg feels much better!
I'm on my way, Nya!
[***]
GARMADON: If we're gonna find Nya before the others do,
we've got a lot of ground to cover.
Look. Nya's footprints.
Huh? Nya is more clever than that.
[***]
No, she wants everyone to follow these tracks.
But only us to see this.
Her Samurai X symbol.
Can I give you a lift?
Save your energy.
It's best not to draw attention. Come on.
Nya, come in? Darreth?
Can anyone read me?
[SIGHS]
Still no word?
Nothing.
We've lost all communication.
How can you be so calm?
My husband and son are out there all alone.
As are my brother and pupils,
but we must not let fear cloud our thinking.
Sensei Garmadon is there to guide them through this.
I have to believe so.
Still no sign of Cole and that metal man?
They still haven't escaped the island.
We'll find them.
Search the labyrinth and lock this place down.
[POWER WHIRRING DOWN]
KARLOF: All clear.
[BOTH GASP]
Okay, back to our plan to all of us getting out of here.
Now, if we all tried to tackle the labyrinth,
some of us would be sure to get lost.
So that's not an option.
But Zane here, he analyzed the sewer network.
Sewer network? Isn't that stinky?
Hey, I'd blast my way out of here if I could,
but all of our powers are gone.
The sewer network is old
and can only sustain so much weight.
But after adding up all of our combined masses,
the pipes will hold by the slimmest of margins.
Did anyone else understand that?
He means it'll work.
ALL: It'll work!
[GRUNTS]
Get to work.
Don't worry, boys, the Brown Ninja's here.
But before I rescue you,
can anyone show me how to make a Puffy Potsticker?
Cole, you're here.
And Zane. Is that you?
Boy, have you changed.
When metal friend say slimmest of margins, how slim?
[COLE SIGHS]
It won't work.
Back to the drawing board. Argh.
You said before that Master Chen was your Sensei,
but nothing else.
Son, there are things from my past I am not proud of.
Perhaps it's time for you to know the truth.
After the Devourer bit me when I was a child,
it took years for all of the evil
to fully consume me.
[GRUNTING]
CHEN: Good Garmadon. Good Clouse.
But you're both holding back.
Might I add he who wins this fight
shall become my right hand
and be granted lordship?
Ugh.
[***]
[GRUNTING]
[GRUNTS]
He cheated, master.
You told us spinjitzu was forbidden.
He did what he had to do to win.
Congratulations, Lord Garmadon.
GARMADON: It was a time in our history
when Man and Serpentine were not getting along.
As our sides clashed, we hoped for a truce.
But not Chen.
CHEN: Oh, peace is so boring,
but conflict and turmoil
is so unpredictable and exciting.
GARMADON: But, Master Chen,
even the Anacondrai are making concessions.
There could be a truce, there could be--
Never trust a snake, Lord Garmadon.
Remember that.
Oh, don't look so sad.
I've intercepted something that will make you feel better.
A love letter.
Apparently your pathetic little brother feels the same
about that girl you admire.
Aah, Misako.
His words are so heartfelt.
They could sway how she feels about one of you.
I didn't write this, I shouldn't be reading it.
Didn't you?
It could be your name on it.
Certainly you feel the same.
Mom thought that letter was from you.
GARMADON: As I've told you,
there are things in my past I'm not proud of,
but I have no regrets.
You wouldn't be here otherwise.
My fear of losing Misako controlled me
and led me down a dangerous path.
A path I hope to one day make peace with.
Master, if our men couldn't find her,
why do you think they will fare much better?
If the girl gets that spell to a ninja,
all of our plans will be jeopardized.
Oh, Clousey-Clouse.
There's a reason why I'm the master
and you're my pupil.
Why should I worry about the remaining fighters
rising up against me,
when after today there'll be no fighters remaining?
The little treats I gave them are tracking their every move.
This little game isn't about them hunting the girl,
it's about hunting them. Heh-heh-heh.
CLOUSE: Master, you are a devious one.
[***]
[MUSIC PLAYING OVER SPEAKER]
CLOUSE: Your time in this tournament has expired.
SHADOW: So the ninja were right all along.
Chen was never gonna hand over that staff.
Hmm. Only one can remain.
And it will be Chen!
[SHADOW SCREAMING]
[NYA GASPS]
Nya! Where are you?
Nya? Is that you?
[GRUNTS]
Whoever's there, I'm fired up.
SKYLER: It's just me.
[SIGHS]
I see you didn't pick up any of Chen's special treats either.
Of course not, like I'd ever trust him.
And I wanna find her to help you get the spell
and stop Chen once and for all.
Maybe we should be together.
Aah, that didn't come out right. Heh.
I mean, it's a big island, so maybe if we were a couple...
Argh! No. Uh, heh.
What I'm trying to say is, um...
You want me to help you find your sister.
Of course, I'll follow you.
Heh. It's good to work with people you trust.
Yes, I couldn't agree more.
[***]
Two fighters down, six remain.
And this one was a bit hard to find.
MR. PALE: Argh. You'll never get away with this, Chen.
Are you serious?
Where have you been?
I've been getting away with it time and time again.
Oh, take him away, he's boring.
[MR. PALE GRUNTING]
Argh. You'd think they'd create a trap door in this thing...
Master, Skyler is with Kai.
Good.
But we still don't know where Lloyd and Garmadon are.
Bad. Find them, Clouse.
While you're at it, round up the rest of them.
[***]
Father, I don't understand.
You trained under Chen,
yet you fought beside Wu in the wars.
What happened to the truce?
GARMADON: When Chen said, "Never trust a snake,"
he was right.
The Serpentine struck first.
[***]
[ALL SCREAMING]
GARMADON: The Alliance of the Elemental Masters
fought back.
[***]
[GRUNTS]
GARMADON: But they had never seen the likes
of an Anacondrai warrior.
[ALL GRUNTING]
They were bigger, smarter,
natural leaders on the battlefield.
[GRUNTING]
GARMADON: The Anacondrai were a proud tribe
who fought with every ounce of venom.
There was no greater warrior in the land.
And with them in command,
they proved to be too much for the Alliance to handle.
[WHIMPERS]
Charge!
[GASPS]
[GROWLS]
HYPNOBRAI: We've taken the village, General Arcturus.
Good. Only one can remain.
[***]
GARMADON: Chen stood to gain more if he sided with the Snakes
and wanted me to help him.
Though the evil in my veins tempted me,
I wouldn't fight a war for him.
I would only fight to see Misako again.
From then on, Chen and I went our separate ways.
So that I could join my brother in battle.
We were the sons of the first spinjitzu master.
And together, with the Elemental Alliance,
we stood a fighting chance.
[ALL SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]
Aah!
[***]
[SCREAMING]
But Chen's influence changed all that.
He found a way to turn the Alliance against each other.
[GRUNTING AND YELLING]
The battle was all but lost.
But in our darkest hour, we found hope.
[FLUTE PLAYING]
[***]
And hope found a way to end the war.
[FLUTE PLAYING]
[GRUNTING]
[FLUTE PLAYING]
The Serpentine were divided and locked away in tombs.
[FLUTE PLAYING]
Chen and Clouse were exiled.
We ask for mercy.
Mercy? Never heard of it.
GARMADON: And the Anacondrai generals
were given the strictest sentence:
Banishment to the Cursed Realm,
so that they will never set foot in Ninjago again.
[GARMADON CONTINUES SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]
[WHIRRING]
Even after all this time,
you never told Wu about your past with Chen?
What would I have said?
I would have lost your mother,
as well as my brother. Not to mention--
Someone once told me you need to control your fear,
and not let fear control you.
Hm, you're right.
Once we put all of this behind us,
I'll make things right.
But first, we need to find Nya. Come on.
[***]
[GRUNTS]
Okay, so maybe rolling ourselves up into giant egg rolls
isn't the best plan.
Anyone else have another idea?
Karlof used to be aeronautical engineer
back in Metalonia.
Work on roto jets.
Just one could take out entire army.
Oh. Great idea.
But two things:
We don't have a roto jet,
and what good is a jet if we're underground?
[WHIRRING]
Okay, don't mind me,
carry on whatever business you all are doing.
[DARRETH EXHALES AUDIBLY]
Sure, we were only using that to hatch our escape.
Darreth, what are you doing?
Well, if there isn't a machine that makes Puffy Potstickers,
by golly, I'm gonna make one.
That's it! Darreth, you've solved it.
How are Puffy Potstickers gonna help us?
We'll use machine parts to build the roto jet.
Karlof, do you still remember the schematics of it?
Of course.
ZANE: Then it's set.
Karlof and I will create a blueprint.
Everyone else, find parts.
But we're underground.
[JAY SIGHS]
Wrists tired.
Must keep looking. Nya!
I'm sorry, your search ends here.
Your time in the tournament is over!
[***]
[MECH BEEPING]
Magic's for wussies.
I'll stick to good old nuts and bolts
with a little ingenuity.
You want ingenuity?
Try this on for size.
Heh.
Magic versus nuts and bolts.
[GRUNTING]
JAY: Ha! Is that all the hocus-pocus you got?
Jay. Unh.
Jay!
Nya! I've got my hands full at the moment.
Did you find the spell?
Yes, it's right here!
Chen plans to use everyone's elemental powers to...
What?
Silence, girl!
[NYA GASPS]
Go, Nya! Tell the others!
I can't hold him for long!
MECH: Primary power obstructed.
Automatic self-detonation in five, four--
Heh, heh. That's unfortunate.
MECH: --three, two...
Aah! That could be Nya, come on.
Let me, I have a faster way.
What are you waiting for? Your friends could be in trouble.
How did you just do that?
I can absorb elemental power.
KAI: But the ice...
Zane's never been in the tournament.
You're the spy.
You've seen Zane.
You're working for Chen.
I had to obey my father or else--
Chen's your father?
Aah! Ugh.
Yes.
And now your time in the tournament is over,
Master of Fire.
Take him, Skyler. Okay, Dad.
[GRUNTING]
The reason you didn't have a tattoo
was because you used the power of Form.
And now I'll use the power of smoke.
[GRUNTS]
[CHEN LAUGHS]
Do it, and we'll both go in.
No!
KAI: Ninja, go!
SKYLER: What are you doing?
[SCREAMING]
Skyler, help me! Dad!
Enough of this.
[KAI GASPING]
[GRUNTS]
[PANTING]
Unh. Nya!
They took Jay. They took everyone.
Slow down, Nya.
You're the only one left, Lloyd.
You're the only one who can stop it.
LLOYD: Stop what?
A transformation spell.
It can't be.
Transformation? Transform into what?
GARMADON: An army of Anacondrai.
The tournament may be over,
but the next Serpentine war may have just begun.
[***]
Don't worry, Lloyd will come for us.
I'm planning on it.
