ANNOUNCER: Previously on Ninjago:
We had an uninvited guest on the island.
KAI: Nya! He wants us all to hunt her down.
Back to our plan to all of us are getting out of here.
You're the only one who can stop it.
GARMADON: A transformation spell.
NYA: They took everyone. KAI: Chen's your father?

[ANNOUNCER READS ON-SCREEN TEXT]
[DRUMMING INTENSE BEAT]
[MEN CHANTING]
Bring in the prisoners.
So the ninja were right.
This was never about any of us winning the tournament.
This was always about something sinister.
What gave that away? Was it his cult following,
or the giant snake head?
We've been fighting each other for so long,
it took us all losing to finally pull us together.
Too bad it's too late.
[HUMMING]
Why are you humming?
You do know they're about to take our powers?
Since these cursed shackles have blocked our powers,
I choose to use the power of positive thinking.
Lloyd will come save us.
You just wait.
Go ahead and look away, but you know as well as I do,
after he takes our powers, he's still gonna need yours.
You don't understand. My father gets everything he wants.
I had no choice. Just tell me one thing.
Was it his idea to make me fall for you, or yours?
Because it worked. [GASPS THEN SIGHS]
Lock 'em down.
All rise for Master Chen!
[MINIONS CHEERING]
Look at me. I'm floating.
[MINIONS GASP]
I got it. I got it.
I just got distracted by how awesome this place looks.
Well done, Clouse.
You've really set the mood.
And look at this. Soon I'll have more power.
It's good to be me.
You may have us, but you still don't have the Green Ninja.
Ah yes. I bet right now he'll swoop down
to save you in the very last moment
and teach me a valuable lesson.
Well, I'll wait. I love lessons.
Any minute now.
That's enough. I'm bored.
But here's a lesson: Don't be a sore loser.
Only one can remain!
[GRUNTING AND GROANING]
The power is mine. All mine!
He never came.
Take them to the factory.
Father, please, spare Kai.
I've seen inside his head. He's different. He can help you.
You like the boy, don't you?
If it will make you happy.
Leave the red one.
LLOYD: He knows I'm coming.
But I can't just hide here and do nothing.
We have to wait until nightfall.
There's too many.
And then what? Every minute we're out here,
he grows more powerful--
Son, Chen grows strong by taking from others.
But real power does the opposite.
It empowers those around you.
Like the way you've empowered me.
We will get you to Chen, and you will destroy his staff.
Ah. Would you look at that?
If a foot soldier like Eyezor
can move up the chain of command, why can't we?
I mean, the guy's only got one good eye,
and we each got two.
We could spot a ninja twice as fast as he could.
But he's got a Mohawk.
And his name: Eyezor.
It's got a real ring to it. And it's practical.
You know, with his creepy sore eye and all.
That's it. That's it. We need names.
We need something that'll make us, you know, stand out.
I got it. Call me Kapow!
Oh, that's good.
What should I be? Oh, I know.
Hey, who's that?
It's Maleficium!
Malefici...?
That's a horrible name. I can hardly pronounce it.
Then how about, uh...
Chope!
Hey!
Chope? Yeah, I'm not gonna judge.
Wait a minute, yes I am. That is awesome!
Look out world, Kapow and Chope movin' up the ranks.
Yeah.
No talking on duty, minions.
Uh, it's actually Chope and Kapow--
I said, no talking!
Work.
No, no. It's not work if you love what you do.
The power of positive thinking.
COLE: Psst.
Cole? Zane? Is that you?
Ah, you look amazing!
Not so loud.
They think we've escaped and don't know we're here.
Why would you come back?
Because we're breaking everyone out.
Correction. We're building our way out.
COLE: They think we're fixing the noodle machine,
but we're fixing a Roto Jet.
A Roto Jet? But aren't we underground?
That's what I've been saying.
What happened to positive thinking?
No talking! And hurry up with that noodle machine.
Okay, okay. It will be ready soon.
When ready, noodles will fly out of here.
Hey, do you know where Kai is?
Last I heard, he's getting the "special" treatment.
A scale from the Great Devourer,
Captain Soto's peg leg, a cog from the Celestial Clock,
Zane's pink gi, and this.
Oh!
An Anacondrai Sword.
They are the sharpest blade in existence,
fit for the greatest warrior to ever do battle in Ninjago.
Why are you showing me all of this?
You do realize if you weren't holding that staff right now,
I'd strike you down right here.
Skyler was right.
Even without your power, the fire burns bright in you.
Unlike you and my dear Skyler,
who inherited her powers from her mother,
I was never born with natural abilities.
[YAWNS]
I was told I would amount to nothing.
But I will show them they are all wrong.
Look. I call it The Charge of the Dark Brigade.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
The reds, the purples, the super dark purples.
After I defeat your little green friend and take his powers,
I will have all the elements I need to conjure a spell
that will transform me and my worshippers into Anacondrai.
With you and your friends gone,
nothing will stop me.
But I've seen inside your head.
I know you're still jealous
Lloyd was chosen to be the Green Ninja.
It could've been you.
Have you ever wondered what it felt like
to have so much power pulsing through your veins?
Yes, you have.
There is so much potential in you, Kai.
I want to give you the chance to find it.
I will never turn on my friends.
Of course.
But what if I also told you
there were secrets about your parents
that your senseis never told you?
Dark secrets.
My parents? What secrets?
So many questions that can so easily be answered.
Master, it is nightfall.
The Green Ninja will be making his move shortly.
Think about it.
Hmm...
Remember, destroy the staff and everyone's power returns.
You came here to make your team whole. Finish the job.
[GRUNTS]
[GRUNTING]
[ALARM WAILING]
[ALL GRUNTING]
LLOYD: There's too many of them.
I'll hold them. You two, find Chen.
GARMADON: Look out!
[BOTH GRUNT]
Go, son. Leave Clouse to me.
Good luck.
Your father doesn't believe in luck.
I know. I wasn't talking to him.
Just like back in the training yard.
Only this time, I refuse to lose.
[BOTH GRUNTING]
[GASPS]
[PANTING]
[YELLS]
Aw, Chen and his trap doors. [GROWL IN DISTANCE]
Huh? Uh-oh!
Lloyd! This way! Come on!
[GROWLING]
Kai, you escaped. What happened?
I managed to slip free, but Chen took all our powers.
If we can find them--
There's no time. I have to stop Chen.
Alone if I have to.
What? What is it? I'm sorry, Lloyd.
This will all make sense when it's over.
Kai? Kai, where are you?
[***]
The final round. It all ends here.
You! You turned Kai against me?
Like I said, only one can remain.
[GRUNTS]
Oh, please.
What use is one element when I have the rest?
Shadow!
LLOYD: I know what you're up to.
The Anacondrai Wars are over.
You're living in the past.
CHEN: Wrong.
I decide when it's over.
And who doesn't like a blast from the past?
Ice!
[CACKLING]
Fire.
[GRUNTING]
When my followers become Anacondrai,
Ninjago will be controlled by those who deserve it:
The most powerful.
Gravity!
Whoa! Ooh!
[GRUNTING]
[GROANS]
Whoa!
What you have isn't power!
[GRUNTING]
It's stealing!
[GRUNTING]
[YELLING]
[GROANS]
Real power doesn't need to take from others.
[GRUNTS]
[CACKLING]
Real power stops people like you. Unh!
[GROANS]
Only one can remain.
[CACKLING]
[SIGHS]
Nya, are you all right?
Yes. What--? What happened?
[***]
We have to get out of here.
[BOTH GRUNTING]
My pet loves the smell of fear.
Where is my son? What have you done with--
I have your son.
But his power will become mine at the ceremony tonight.
I'm sorry you didn't get an invite.
I'm still a little hurt by my pupil deciding
to betray me so long ago.
But how did you defeat him?
Oh, I had a little help.
[GASPS]
You pitted the ninja against themselves,
just as you did the Elemental Masters.
Why, Kai? How could you do this?
Chen holds all the power.
Lloyd alone never stood a chance.
I had to think about what was best for us.
He'll let you go if-- I'd rather be snake food!
[GRUNTING]
Untie us!
[BOTH LAUGHING]
Or what?
You've changed, remember?
You're Sensei Garmadon.
You're a good guy. Threats don't frighten me.
[GASPING]
My pet may be napping,
but she's always hungry when she wakes up.
You had a good run, Garmadon.
But all good things must come to an end.
[CHEN & CLOUSE CACKLING]
This isn't you, Kai. Don't do this.
Sorry, sis. This is the way it has to be.
Have the factory prepare a feast
in honor of the ceremony, Clouse.
I'm in the mood for noodles.
This is how your father treats you?
It doesn't have to be like this.
But he has the staff.
There's nothing I can do about it.
But what if I can?
Lloyd didn't stand a chance alone, but if Chen trusts me,
I can get close to the staff, and then--
Why would you tell me this after I betrayed you?
You spared me for a reason.
And you know I'm far too fetching to resist.
[***]
[WHISTLES]
Uh, please, almost done.
Soon noodle machine will be firing on all cylinders.
No, make now.
Master Chen wants noodles for the big ceremony.
What ceremony? Chen defeated the Green Ninja.
Now no one in Ninjago can stop us.
[LAUGHS]
Look on the bright side.
At least all your jobs just became permanent.
Uh, there's a few minor kinks.
Unh! [SUMO ZUMO LAUGHS]
Give me that sheet. Huh?
That's not a noodle machine!
Uh, that's the kink. Now!
[GRUNTING]
Huh?
Cole? He's here!
I'd get out of the way if I were you.
[SCREAMING]
[CHEERING]
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Easy, tiger!
Whoa! Heh-heh.
Over there!
[ALL YELLING]
When will it fly?
It fly when it fly. No sooner.
On the other side!
We'll run outta bolts trying to fend 'em off.
Make her fly, Karlof, or get us out of here.
No problem. Push red button.
[CHEERING]
This is why you don't make jets underground, Karlof.
The power of positive thinking.
[ALL GRUNTING]
Behind you!
[PLAYING INTENSE BEAT]
[MINIONS CHANTING]
KAPOW: Just look at us.
We're escorting the big dogs now.
Heh. Like I said, Kapow and Chope moving up the ranks.
[GRUNTING]
[GROWLS]
[ALL CHANTING]
Why would you help them?
Don't worry.
It won't hurt, heh, that much.
[CHUCKLES]
All right, first thing's first. Daughter!
[GASPS]
I offer my power to you, Father.
[GROANING]
Only one can remain.
[GRUNTING]
Some help you are, Kai.
[***]
[HISSES]
Nya, it's karma.
After personally destroying
the biggest snake Ninjago has ever seen,
it's only reasonable the second biggest
would exact its revenge on me.
[HISSING]
[ROARS]
[GASPS]
[***]
Whoo-hoo! We did it!
Well hello, Master of Earth.
Uh-uh. Don't forget Master of Lightning.
Hey! Zane, you're back!
What? What is on my back?
[BOTH LAUGHING]
Karlof, why isn't this thing off the ground yet?
Two hands can only work so fast.
Well you're gonna fix it Karlof, because you know why?
Sure.
ALL: Positive thinking!
[***]
[GROANS]
And now for the final element.
[GASPS]
Only one can remain.
[GROANING]
[SCREAMS]
[MINIONS CHANTING]
Behold! Every elemental power, all in my control!
Do you feel the power? I do!
[CHANTING IN ANCIENT TONGUE]
All of you who bare the mark of the Anacondrai, it is time.
We will shed our skins for new ones,
and be the most powerful force in all of Ninjago!
Father, let me stand beside you.
Yes. Yes. Join me.
After today, not only will Master Chen
be Ninjago's number one noodle house,
but Ninjago's number one ruler!
[CHANTING IN ANCIENT TONGUE]
Hey, Chen!
You forgot one element.
The element of surprise.
[GRUNTS]
You betray me?!
Runs in the family.
[GRUNTING]
Get him!
[ALL GRUNTING]
That was all an act?
Don't worry. I had it all under control.
Well, almost.
Ice!
Grr! Aah!
Hurry, Kai, you must destroy the staff.
Chen was right. This thing's awesome.
Kai, it holds too much power! Destroy it!
The power is corrupting him.
If we don't get that staff out of his hands--
No one is taking my staff!
You had all that power. Now it's my turn!
Ah, what am I saying?
Nothing I don't already feel!
Yes. Yes.
Embrace the power!
I can't-- I can't control it.
I don't want to control it!
I should've been the Green Ninja!
No, Kai. Don't!
Did anyone order some kung pao?
[***]
Zane! Good to see you again, buddy.
And it's good to be back.
[GRUNTS]
[KAI & CHEN PANTING]
[BOTH GRUNT IN SLO-MO]
[IN SLO-MO] No!
Now bad guys in big trouble!
ALL: Ninja, go!
[ALL GRUNTING]
It always brings tears to my eyes
when I see the old gang back together.
[***]
They have all the power!
For now, master. But not for long.
No sign of Chen.
And no sign of Skyler either.
If it weren't for her help,
we wouldn't have control of the island.
We'll find her, brother.
It's funny.
I came here to find an old friend.
[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]
