Zane quotes from Ninjago

Kai

We want the scroll, Ronin. What do you want for it?

Ronin

Two hundred.

Jay

What? Two hundred? We don't have that kind of dough!

Ronin

Come on, you guys once had the Golden Weapons. You honestly telling me you've never pinched anything?

Kai

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?

Ronin

Well then, that changes everything. Four hundred.

Jay

Argh, you can't just double the price!

Ronin

My shop, my rules.

Kai

All right, so my gut says—

What do you think, Zane?

Kai

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.

Zane

Well, I say we give him what he wants. I sense if we won't, Morro will.

Kai

All right, but let me negotiate. [turns back to Ronin] Two hundred.

Ronin

Four hundred.

Kai

Three hundred.

Ronin

Four hundred.

Kai

Three-fifty!

Ronin

Four-fifty.

Kai

Deal!

Jay

[facepalms] Ugh.

Jay

[sarcastically] Nice negotiations, Kai.

Kai

I didn't see you do any better.

Zane

[sees a Strangle Weed creeping up to Cole's ankle; speaking backwards] Watch out! The Strangle Weed! Cole!

What's wrong with him?

Jay

I don't know. I think he's talking backwards. Slow down! We can't understand you!

Zane

[speaking backwards] Strangle Weed! Strangle Weed!

AH! STRANGLE WEED! IT'S GOT ME!

Kai

[in the crane, confused as to what Zane is trying to say] You want me to drop it? All right.

Kai

[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.

Zane

[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.

Kai

[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.

Kai

Hey!

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.

And why's that?

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?

Kai

Uh, Jay, I don't think that's how it goes.

Zane

[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!

Zane

[speaking backwards] Another one of Morro's friends!

Kai

I think he said "Another one of Morro's friends".

Kai

Thanks for the pick-me-up.

Ronin

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]

Second chances? What did he mean by that?

Kai

We may have lost out on the Scroll, but he thinks there may be another way to learn Airjitzu.

We're still gonna fly?

Jay

Really? Another way?

Zane

[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?

Kai

I sort of gave him... my shares of the tea farm... along with all of yours.

Jay

You what?!

Wu's gonna flip!

Zane

[speaking backwards] That's horrible news!

Kai

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?

Kai

Let's just say, it's not gonna be easy. We have a ghost of a chance.

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.

Zane

[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.

Known for his un- [clears throat] -usual teaching methods ...

Kai

[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.

Zane

AT LEAST YOU CAN UNDERSTAND ME NOW!

Zane

[points to a dumbwaiter behind Jay] THERE'S A DUMBWAITER!

Jay

[offended] Hey, watch who you're calling— [realizes what Zane meant] Oh, a dumbwaiter! That can take us down.

Jay

What is it? What's down there? Oh, wait, don't tell me! I don't want to know!

Zane

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!

Misako

Now that both Morro and you have Airjitzu, it's time to turn our attention to the second clue, the Sword in the Cloud.

Zane

[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...

Kai

[to Jay] I thought you said you fixed his voice.

Jay

I did. [snickers] And then I made it better.

Zane

...the Sword of Invisibility, the Sword of Invincibility...

Kai

[snickers, to Jay] You're right, he is better.

Zane

...the Blade of Ruin.

Jay

Tell me, Zane, how tall is this mountain?

Zane

[still speaking in a pirate accent] The precise elevation of the Wailing Alps be well over three Leagues and twenty eight Fathoms.

Jay

[snickers] Zane's so much cooler.

In this realm, we strive for greater understanding and let go of distractions. There is no television, no video games—

Jay

No video games? Hmph, not impressed.

Zane

[pirate accent] It appears all any lad does here be writing.

That is because here, our words matter. You see, in Cloud Kingdom, we are the Writers of Destiny. It was here that it was decided that Lloyd should be the Green Ninja. And just now, that Zane should find his voice again.

Zane

[voice now back to normal] I sense my vocal pattern has returned without any repairs.

Jay

Ugh, he doesn't talk like a pirate anymore.

Fenwick's convinced there's no way to stop the Queen of the Cursed, so he's agreed to help Morro only to help himself. But he doesn't know you've escaped. You have to get the Sword of Sanctuary, or else Morro will have too big of an advantage.

Tell us where it is.

The tallest tower. But you must hurry, they're already headed there.

Kai

Guess there's no time to take the stairs. You thinking what I'm thinking?

Airjitzu!

Jay

Cyclondo! [groans] Why isn't it catching on?

Zane

We're almost to the Tomb of the First Spinjitzu Master.

Yeah, can't believe we're almost there after all we've been through.

Kai

I can't believe I'm underwater.

You? What about me? Just how thick is this glass?

[on screen] We're heading to your location now. With Morro already ahead of you and able to foresee the traps protecting the tomb with the Sword of Sanctuary, it's going to be up to you four to find the Realm Crystal before he does.

Jay

Hehe, Cole's a Ghost, Kai can't swim, we have no magical sword or Elemental Powers. [laughs nervously] What could go wrong?

Kai

[as they stand in front of the skeleton of the First Spinjitzu Master; gasps] It's him. The First Spinjitzu Master.

Zane

The Realm Crystal. [takes the crystal out of the skeleton's hands]

Kai

How does it work?

Morro

[appearing while no longer possessing Lloyd's body and holding him hostage] How it works is you'll hand over the Crystal, or say goodbye to your friend!

Lloyd

[weakly] I'm sorry. I couldn't stop him.

Kai

Shouldn't we be going to Stiix? The longer we wait, the worse it'll get.

We need to stock up.

Jay

On what? Magic tea that will make us invincible? Give us special powers? Is it gonna give us four arms?

Sadly, no magical tea today. I had to sell the rest of the merchandise along with everything else.

Zane

What? You sold your business? But that was for your retirement.

Cyrus

Ah! Hello again, ninja.

While we were away, I had Borg use the money from the tea farm to create us some new toys to balance the scales. They are expensive, you know.

Cyrus

It's been so long, I hardly recognize any of you. Lloyd looks older. I see a Water Ninja. A titanium Nindroid. Cole is a...a ghost? Huh. Jay looks shorter. And then there's Kai.

Jay

Hey, what do you mean I look shorter?
