I need ink and parchment to make an imprint to see what's on the staff.
Kai and I will take you to our quarters, while Jay and Cole will keep him busy.
Oh, that's honorable of you to nominate us.
Jay
Yeah, we didn't fare so hot last time. Why is it that you get off with the easy task?
Because I'm the intelligent one.
[The ninja are riding to Stiix in the desert]
JCJay, Cole, and Zane
[singing] 92,898 bottles of tea on the wall, 92,898 bottles of tea, you take one down and pass it around, 92,8-
Enough! I'm really thirsty, so we don't need to keep singing about tea!
Ho, ho! Someone should've had their breakfast.
Ugh, we've been following the sun for hours. We should've arrived at Stiix already.
But Stiix is on the eastern coast. We should be riding away from the sun.
Jay
Why are you just telling us now?!
Because Kai wanted to lead.
Great! We're officially lost! You know, we had a leg up, but nooo, Kai wanted to lead!
I swear, my gut says we should be following the sun.
Jay
Ugh, you're arguing with a Nindroid. He's a walking computer. Why is it when Lloyd's gone, we look to Kai? We should really be following Zane.
You know, he is the most logical choice.
Well, I still think it's that way. And when I learn Airjitzu first, we'll see who's right. [his Walloper starts following the others] Hey, no, this way! Ugh! [his Walloper doesn’t listen] Ugh, fine, we'll follow Zane.
[Zane sees something up ahead and speeds up on his Walloper]
He's already found something. Let's go. [they see train tracks] Train tracks.
They lead straight to Stiix.
Jay
Hey, you hear that, Kai? They lead to Stiix. We follow Zane and look what happens.
But Sensei said the path we seek is never a straight line.
He also said to rely on each other to guide.
Jay
Yeah, Kai. Pfft.
JCJay, Cole, and Zane
[continue singing] 92,897 bottles of tea on the wall, 92,897 bottles of tea, you take one down…
WWrayth
You think a train can stop a Ghost? Your world will pay dearly when Morro finds the tomb. And when he does, he will take possession of the—
[He pulls on his chain, splashing himself with water and dissolving]
What, uh, what just happened?
Jay
Yeah, but he was just gonna tell us what was in the tomb. Couldn't it have waited another second?
We may not know what's in the tomb, but we do know one thing: how to stop a Ghost.
CJCole, Jay and Zane
Water?
Unusual. I guess it's true. The path we seek is never a straight line.
Jay
Uh, speaking of straight lines, if that train's heading to Stiix, wouldn't it be faster if we...
AAll
[chase the train] Hey! Wait for us! Slow down! Slow down!
We want the scroll, Ronin. What do you want for it?
Jay
What? Two hundred? We don't have that kind of dough!
Come on, you guys once had the Golden Weapons. You honestly telling me you've never pinched anything?
No, we don't pinch! And we don't even have pockets.
What if we were to tell you all of Ninjago depends on it?
Well then, that changes everything. Four hundred.
Jay
Argh, you can't just double the price!
[The ninja huddle together]
All right, so my gut says—
What, my opinion doesn't matter?
Jay
We don't listen to your gut anymore, Kai. Zane's the leader. You just get us lost.
Well, I say we give him what he wants. I sense if we won't, Morro will.
All right, but let me negotiate. [turns back to Ronin] Two hundred.
Jay
[facepalms] Ugh.
[The ninja walk out the shop]
Jay
[sarcastically] Nice negotiations, Kai.
I didn't see you do any better.
[sees a Strangle Weed creeping up to Cole's ankle; speaking backwards] Watch out! The Strangle Weed! Cole!
Jay
I don't know. I think he's talking backwards. Slow down! We can't understand you!
[speaking backwards] Strangle Weed! Strangle Weed!
AH! STRANGLE WEED! IT'S GOT ME!
[in the crane, confused as to what Zane is trying to say] You want me to drop it? All right.
[Jay and Zane manage to get Cole untangled from the Strangle Weed. Kai drops a wooden post from the crane, and it causes the dock to start collapsing. Cole, Jay and Zane quickly run off the dock as it collapses. The dock foreman watches in dismay, and Kai gets out of the crane to see the dock ruined]
[turns to the foreman, awkwardly] So, heh, how about getting paid?
Jay
His voice mod's on the fritz. I can fix it, but it's gonna take time.
[speaking backwards] It's not that bad, is it? [sighs]
Sorry, Zane, you tried to lead, but I guess it just didn't work out.
[sighs] No money, no scroll. And it couldn't have happened at a worse time.
Jay
What are you, a bunch of quitters? Sure, we can't understand Zane, but did we ever? And Kai's the last person I'd want to follow.
Jay
But now, I'm in charge. We may not have the money to buy the Scroll, but I say we don't need it.
Jay
'Cause we're gonna steal it!
Jay, we're ninja, not thieves!
Jay
Yeah, but we're stealing from a thief. Haven't you ever heard, two wrongs make a right?
Uh, Jay, I don't think that's how it goes.
[speaking backwards] It's "two wrongs don't make a right."
Jay
Shut it, Mush Mouth! I'm the leader and what I say goes. After Ronin locks up tonight, we steal the Scroll of Airjitzu!
Thanks for the pick-me-up.
Remember what I said about second chances, and I'm gonna hold you that deal. So long, and I hope you get your friend back. [leaves]
[Kai meets up with the other ninja]
Second chances? What did he mean by that?
We may have lost out on the Scroll, but he thinks there may be another way to learn Airjitzu.
Jay
Really? Another way?
[speaking backwards] This is great news.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a sec, Ronin only makes deals in his favor, and you're a horrible negotiator.
Jay
Kai, what did you give him?
I sort of gave him... my shares of the tea farm... along with all of yours.
Jay
You what?!
[speaking backwards] That's horrible news!
I did what I had to, and for Lloyd, I'd do it again.
You're right. But I have to ask, if Morro has the only Scroll, just how are we gonna learn Airjitzu?
Let's just say, it's not gonna be easy. We have a ghost of a chance.
[The ninja arrive on a tour to Yang's Haunted Temple]
PKPatty Keys
Welcome to Yang's Haunted Temple, the historical landmark and former home of Sensei Yang, the notorious sensei without a pupil, infamous for creating the lost martial art of Airjitzu. Unfortunately, we can't take our tour groups inside, for rumors say anyone trapped inside its walls at sunrise, will be turned into a Ghost permanently. But, if you listen closely, maybe we'll be able to hear the Ghost of Sensei Yang himself looking for his lost pupils.
[yelling] I HOPE IT’S NOT A RUMOR, FOR IT’S OUR ONLY HOPE!
Ah, sorry about my loud friend. He's a little hard of hearing.
PPatty
Known for his un- [clears throat] -usual teaching methods ...
[to Jay] I thought you said you fixed him?
Jay
At least he's no longer talking backwards. I guess my tinkering got his volume level stuck, heh.
AT LEAST YOU CAN UNDERSTAND ME NOW!
[The ninja open the front door, but almost fall down the Ethereal Divide]
Jay
What is it? What's down there? Oh, wait, don't tell me! I don't want to know!
WE APPEAR TO BE TRAPPED WITHIN SOME KIND OF INTER-DIMENSIONAL ETHEREAL REALM!
Jay
Oh, I told you not to tell me, Zane! Knowing that just makes things worse!
[sees a moving painting of a ship in the sea] Uh, guys? Are paintings supposed to move?
[Jay taps the painting, and water comes out of it, slowly flooding the room]
Why would you touch the scary picture, Jay?!
Jay
I didn't know it would do that, Cole!
Now that both Morro and you have Airjitzu, it's time to turn our attention to the second clue, the Sword in the Cloud.
[in a pirate accent] Me senses tell me it could be many a swords. Thar be the Fire Sword, the Sword of Destiny, the Golden Cutlass...
[to Jay] I thought you said you fixed his voice.
Jay
I did. [snickers] And then I made it better.
...the Sword of Invisibility, the Sword of Invincibility...
[snickers, to Jay] You're right, he is better.
Jay
[sees a yak] Oh, look, a little goat!
That's not a goat. Don't you remember? We rode one of those.
Jay
It's got horns. It's a goat.
Even giraffes have horns. And that's not a goat, it's a yak.
Jay
A yak? No way. Maybe it's a cow.
