-[Jay] Zane!
182
00:08:51,084 --> 00:08:52,168
Zane, what happened?
183
00:08:52,251 --> 00:08:54,376
Unclear.
As I approached the structure,
184
00:08:54,459 --> 00:08:55,918
my vehicle lost power!
185
00:08:56,001 --> 00:08:57,709
Do not get too close
to the temple.
186
00:08:57,793 --> 00:09:00,376
It will drain all power
from your vehicles!

188
00:09:13,793 --> 00:09:17,001
Attention, team, if possible,
I would like to examine
189
00:09:17,084 --> 00:09:19,168
a fragment
of one of those crystals.
190
00:09:19,251 --> 00:09:20,834
[groans]
What for?
191
00:09:20,918 --> 00:09:24,334
[Pixal] I believe the crystals
may have energy absorption properties.
192
00:09:24,418 --> 00:09:26,376
If I could examine one,
I might be able
193
00:09:26,459 --> 00:09:29,668
to devise a form of shielding
and offensive capabilities.
194
00:09:29,751 --> 00:09:32,001
Oh, okay. No problem!
195
00:09:36,001 --> 00:09:37,459
[blasting]
196
00:09:38,793 --> 00:09:40,418
[Cole] Jay!
You can't touch them,
197
00:09:40,501 --> 00:09:42,418
they'll turn you
into crystal! Remember?
198
00:09:42,501 --> 00:09:44,668
Hmm.

201
00:09:49,543 --> 00:09:52,584
Sorry, Pixal.
When I said "no problem",
202
00:09:52,668 --> 00:09:55,251
that might have been
a little premature!
203
00:09:56,043 --> 00:09:57,251
[Cole] Heads up!
204
00:10:01,168 --> 00:10:02,501
-[grunts]
-[clanging]
205
00:10:04,376 --> 00:10:05,501
I got it!

[heroic music]
207
00:10:12,918 --> 00:10:15,793
Vinny Folson?
This makes no sense.
208
00:10:15,876 --> 00:10:18,584
How did he know the Overlord
was returning to Ninjago?
209
00:10:18,668 --> 00:10:21,584
There's only one way
to find out.
210
00:10:21,751 --> 00:10:24,084
[suspenseful music]
211
00:10:28,084 --> 00:10:29,209
This is it.
212
00:10:34,001 --> 00:10:38,293
Finally! 20 minute
delivery guarantee my... Eh!
213
00:10:39,251 --> 00:10:40,209
Dad?
214
00:10:41,376 --> 00:10:42,918
Lloyd?
