Zane quotes from Ninjago

Zane

[finds out that he's a robot] No! It can’t be! NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zane

[recording] This is the last recording of Zane, Master of Ice, son of Dr. Julien, student of Master Wu. I was built to protect those who cannot protect themselves. I have tried to fulfill this purpose. I have no regrets; I have the best friends anyone could ask for. P.I.X.A.L.... I love you. Farewell.

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.

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.

Jay

Oh, sleeping in. You're gonna be late for training.

Zane

Oh, how come no one awakened me?

Kai

We didn't think you wanted us to. You looked like you were having some dream.

Zane

How do I know this isn't a dream—

[hits Zane in the face with a pillow] Does that feel like a dream?

Zane

No. Thank you for your help.

What was so important to ignore my teachings?

Kai

Uh, nothing.

Jay

It was nothing, Sensei.

Yeah, we don't talk while you teach.

Zane

Everyone was paying attention.

Since you all appear to be lacking in focus, then you can all share in the punishment.

Kai

What?

Jay

Punishment?

It was all Zane.

Zane

I was merely answering their questions.

No free time and no video games. The rest of the day can be used for training. And tomorrow, for that matter.

Kai

Training? For how long?

Until you can answer this simple riddle: what is the best way to defeat an enemy?

Kai

Easy, with a sword.

Jay

Your fists.

Spinjitzu.

Zane

Tornado of Creation?

[sighs] Pace yourselves. You have a lot of training ahead of you. Make sure you sharpen your mind as well as your Spinjitzu. [walks away]

Ugh. What's the best way to defeat an enemy? It could be anything, ugh!

Jay

Come on, guys, we're smart. We can figure this out.

Kai

Yeah, but let's hear more about this dream.

Zane

Let me just say, the Green Ninja is awesome.

Kai

[to Cole] You couldn't just be happy with the top score, you had to rub it in my face!

[to Jay] Do you know how long it took me to make that?! Three days. Three days!

Jay

[to Zane] It's an unsaid law, okay? You don't touch a man's robot!

Zane

[to Kai] How am I supposed to strike fear in this? [shows that his ninja suit has dyed pink] IT'S PINK!

[gasp] You did this?!

Boys, I get first dibs on…

No dibs. I put him up to this for today's lesson. I wanted to show you the destructive power of rumors and that jumping to conclusions can only lead to trouble. Did you ever think to find out if the accusations were true?

Uh, no offense, Sensei, but let me jump to this conclusion: today's lesson is lame.

Jay

Yeah, why can't you just teach us to paralyze your enemy with one finger, or find out if a man is lying by the twitch of his nose?

Because not all lessons are about fighting! And I… misplaced my lesson book.

Kai

You mean this lesson book?

Lloyd

It was the perfect plan, until you had to show up and mess everything up and-

Nya

[over the speaker] If you're done fooling around, I could use you guys on the bridge. We do still have a snake problem to attend to. Over and out!

Kai

It's one thing to let the son of your nemesis live with you, but having my sister here? I mean, come on! I thought this was a NINJA headquarters!

Nya

You do know I can hear you. Over and out!

You know, whether it was in a lesson book or not, we used the destructive power of rumors to our advantage.

Kai

And now the Serpentine are further away than ever from getting their act together.

Jay

You know, I don't think we would've gotten out of there if it hadn't been for Zane.

Zane

Don't thank me, thank Lloyd. If it hadn't been for his "laundry skills," we all would've been found.

Lloyd

Well, it took me twenty loads, but your suit's no longer pink. [to Cole] And to show that I'm sorry, Cole, I got you a can of nuts.

Uh, haha, yeah. Don't think I don't see what this is. When I open this, a bunch of snakes are gonna pop out, right? Yeah, no thank you.

Lloyd

First, I'll stomp on his tail. Then when he turns, a thunder clap to his ears. Then when he's stunned, I'll disarm him.

Too late, he's already hypnotized you and now you're under his control.

Zane

Or he's already put you in a squeeze.

Kai

Or spit on you with his hallucinatory venom. Trust me, bad stuff.

Lloyd

[groans] Uncle, what's the best way to stun a Serpentine if you don't know what kind they are?

Sadly, it was the Sacred Flute you four carelessly lost.

Jay

Hey, no, no, no, we didn't lose it, Pythor stole it.

Whatever the case, without it, I fear we have nothing to combat their powers. We may have prevented them from uniting in the past, but they will try again, and one day they will be stronger.

Don't worry, Sensei. I've almost reached my Full Potential, and when I become the Green Ninja, we're not gonna need any magic flute.

Kai

You're gonna be the Green Ninja? Hahaha, don't make me laugh.

Zane

I thought it was decided that I was destined to become the Green Ninja.

Jay

Oh, the only thing decided about you, Zane, is that you're weird.

Lloyd

Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's in the box?

Your new uniforms.

Jay

Whoa! They've got, like, armor!

Kai

I love the gold highlights!

Battle claws!

Zane

The material is really light and breathable.

Lloyd

[upset] Oh, nothing for me?

Um, you get, uh, the box.
