Jay quotes from Ninjago

Jay

[talking to himself outside, waiting for Nya] Hey...Nya, maybe after this, you wanna go for a ri... Oh, Jay.

Jay

WHOA!!!! EXCUSE ME?! Will somebody please tell me: WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?!!

Jay

Ow! [notices it's dark and no one's there] Aw, great. I missed supper again. I guess I'm ordering take out. [makes a call on his phone] Hello? Mr. Chen's Noodle Empire? Quick question, do you deliver?

Jay

Hey, Nya, check this out.

Nya

Jay, grow up. [they arrive at the blacksmith shop] Thanks for helping out, blue boy. Now that I'm moving in with you guys, I just need to get a few things.

Jay

Okay, cool. Need a hand?

Nya

No, just wait here.

Jay

Oh, uh... okay.

Jay

Why must we go through this again? I'm clearly the best. I mean, look at me!

Kai

Impressive, thunder cracker, but may I remind you we all have dragon suits. So what's your point?

Jay

Well, I—

Jay's only point is that he won last time, so obviously he thinks he'll hold the title of Dragon Master forever.

Zane

This is highly irrational. We should be training. If Sensei finds out—

Kai

Well, technically, riding your dragon is kind of training.

After Garmadon's fall, the balance of the elements was restored and Ninjago enjoyed many years of peace.

Jay

[riding his Lightning Dragon] Woo hoo! Sensei, look! No hands!

Zane

Apparently, those days are over.

[chuckles] More or less.

Kai

[off-screen] Fire strike! Oh, my gosh, is that the greatest move you've ever seen?

[off-screen] Stop trying to do it yourself. We need to attack as a team.

Jay

Zane, why are you wasting your special attack on me? You have to save it. [Wu goes to look for them in a different room and finds them playing video games] Fantastic! I'm out of lives!

Zane

But the lesson lives on, and I am getting the hang of it. Hee-yah!

Okay. Now!

Aw, man!

Jay

What? What happened?!

It took us three hours to get there.

Jay

Why would you do that? Why?!

Just because Lord Garmadon escaped through a vortex doesn't mean he won't return one day for the Golden Weapons of Spinjitzu!

Zane

But Sensei Wu, ever since he's been gone, Ninjago has had nothing but peace.

Jay

Yeah. Peace is boring. There's no one to save. There's nothing to do.

We can train tomorrow.

Never put off until tomorrow what can be done today.

Well, I was gonna eat this pizza tomorrow. So if that's the case… [Wu kicks the pizza slice out of his hand] OW!

NO PIZZA FOR YOU! In order to reach your True Potential, YOU MUST TRAIN!

Kai

Uh, remember when we did a little thing called the Tornado of Creation? I thought that was pretty insane.

[sighs] You four have merely scratched the surface of your full potential. There are still so many secrets you have yet to unlock. You haven't even begun to tap into what powers your Golden Weapons hold. [Kai's sword is shown to be burning a pizza slice]

You wanna talk secret powers? Check this out. [uses his scythe to plug back the television so that the Ninja can resume their game]

Zane

Don't worry, master. We will be ready when Lord Garmadon returns.

Nya

Guys! Lord Garmadon! He's returned! He was spotted approaching Jamanakai Village!

Jay

Uh, thanks, uh, uh, uh...

Nya

Hurry!

Jay

Okay!

Nya

[watches Kai mount his dragon] Uh, can I help?

Kai

Sorry, sis. Where we go, danger abounds. This is a job for the Ninja. [fails to reach his dragon's reins] Uh, uh... a little help? [laughs nervously]

Nya

Will they ever reach their full potential?

In time. Maybe a long time, but in time.

Kai

[notices the scroll] Huh? I don't remember putting this here.

Zane

That Sensei's bag. You must've accidentally taken it in the rush.

Jay

What is it?

Kai

It's a scroll, windbag.

Jay

I know it's a scroll, but what does it say? It's written in chicken scratch.

Zane

Not chicken scratch, the ancient language of our ancestors.

Kai

Uh, can you read it?

Zane

Well, I can try. [points to a symbol on the scroll] This symbol means "prophecy".

Jay

Prophecy?

Kai

It means it tells the future.

Jay

Of course, ha-ha. I knew that.

Zane

[reading the scroll] "One ninja will rise above the others and become the Green Ninja, the ninja destined to defeat the Dark Lord".

Jay

Oh, look, a picture!

Kai

Dark Lord? Hold on... you think they mean Lord Garmadon? Wait a minute, is that us? Is anyone else thinking what I'm thinking?

Jay

Like how good I'm gonna look in green?

Kai

Ha, isn't it obvious I'm gonna be the Green Ninja?

Jay

The color obviously suits me!

Zane

Technically, I am the best.

Everyone, stop it! Remember why Sensei brought us together in the first place. We're a team. We weren't meant to see this and probably for good reason. Come on, let's head back home. We have training to do.

Jay

It's about time I added some finesse to my routine.

Zane

Well, I could use some exercise.

Yeah, I gotta work on some new moves.

Kai

[to himself] Could I be the Green Ninja?

Kai

My turn! It's my turn!

Oh, you want a little more? Take this!

Jay

Yeah? How about a little of this?

Kai

Monkey paw to the head!

Ninja, roll!

Jay

Dragon punch!

Kai

Ninja, go!

Jay

Hey! Huh?

Hey! What?

Zane

Ninja, go!

Kai

[slips] Woah. [falls] Oof.

Kai

This roof isn't big enough for the four of us.

Correction: This roof isn't big enough for him.

Jay

It's like he's in his own world. [raises his voice] I BET HE CAN’T EVEN HEAR US!

Kai

Sensei, Zane's... weird.

What is weird? Someone who is different or someone who is different than you?

No, Sensei. He's "weird" weird.

[embarrassed] Do you mind?!

Kai

Ahh! Holy bologna!

Zane

I'm sorry. I consumed the last of the deli meat. Cheese?

Kai

We like the guy. He's really smart. He's just... [sighs] a little off sometimes.

Zane is a brother and brothers are often different. I should know.

Jay

Oh, I love it when it's Zane's night to cook.

Hey, I didn't hear any complains about my duck chowder last night.

Kai

That's because it glued our mouths shut. You really thought Jay was speechless all throughout dinner?

Jay

Yeah, please don't make that again.

Kai

I don't even think Zane knows where he's going. [to Zane] Uh, tell us again how you stumbled upon Lloyd's secret headquarters?

Zane

I followed a bird.

Jay

Why did you follow a bird?

Zane

Because it danced.

Jay

Oh... okay. Was it a cuckoo bird? [he, Kai and Cole laugh] The bird.

Zane

Of course not. Everyone knows cuckoo birds are not indigenous to these forests.

Kai

We're too late. Those snakes.

Rocky!

Kai

Our home.

Zane

Shard! Put this out!

Zane

The training equipment, gone.

Jay

Our video games, gone!

They stole their staff back.

What do we do now?

Kai

If you hadn't followed that silly bird, none of this would've happened!

Kai…

Jay

No, Sensei, he's right! [to Zane; sharply] Because of you, my high score has been deleted!

Zane

This is a teaching moment. We must learn from this.

A teaching moment?! What's wrong with you?! Don't you get it?! EVERYTHING IS GONE!

Enough! [Kai, Cole and Jay turn to look at him] We're all at fault. Zane is your brother. Apologize at once.

[banging a gong, waking the ninja up] Evil doesn't sleep and neither should you! [the ninja groan as they wake up] In order to reach your full potential, we must greet each day as an opportunity.

Kai

[gets up] Okay, okay, we're up. But if you want us to reach full potential, shouldn't we at least get a full night of rest?

You call that a rest? I think my back has more lumps than the mattress.

Jay

We were up so late, talking about how cool it is to have a new headquarters, I guess we lost track of time. Since the Serpentine burned down our monastery, I'm just glad we have a roof over our head.

Zane

What is our lesson today, Sensei? Mastering the strike of the Scorpion? Or perhaps the grace of— [the ground breaks and he coughs]

I think today's lesson would be chores.

Chores?!

Ninja fight, Sensei. They do not clean.

In order to respect ourselves, we must respect our new home and where we are from. And this place is a long way from becoming a ninja headquarters. I expect things to be spotless when I return. And put your backs into it.

Nya

Looks like we're about have some visitors, and loud ones at that.

Jay

[sighs] Ugh, it's my parents. Please, if they start yapping, just don't get them going, okay? They don't know when to quit. And if you start talking, then they'll start talking, and suddenly half the day is gone before you know it ends-

Kai

We get it! They talk a lot! [mutters] The cherry doesn't fall far from its blossom.

[he and Edna leave] Bye, son. I couldn't be more proud.

And bring Nya with you, will ya? I can see why you like her.

Jay

Mom…!

Now that they have left, perhaps Jay can teach us the art of… kissing pillows. [snickers]

Jay

[embarrassed] Argh!
