What are you looking at, Zippy?
GTGriffin Turner
The next one out of the Tournament.
Why so scared to show us your back, Shadow? Worried we're gonna find a tattoo and know you're working for Chen?
SShade
I hope this next fight is between you and me, because I'm gonna put you on your back.
[Mr. Pale whistles flirtatiously at Skylor]
Lloyd
Yeah, not as high as we are now. Can hardly see the island from up here.
Lloyd
Father, I don't understand. You trained under Chen, yet you fought beside Wu in the wars. What happened to the truce?
When Chen said "Never trust a snake," he was right. The Serpentine struck first. The alliance of the Elemental Masters fought back. But they had never seen the likes of an Anacondrai warrior. They were bigger, smarter, natural leaders on the battlefield. The Anacondrai were a proud tribe who fought with every ounce of venom. There was no greater warrior in the land. And with them in command, they proved to be too much for the alliance to handle. Chen stood to gain more if he sided with the snakes and wanted me to help him. Though the evil in my veins tempted me, I wouldn't fight a war for him. I would only fight to see Misako again. From then on, Chen and I went our separate ways so that I could join my brother in battle. We were the sons of the First Spinjitzu Master. And together, with the Elemental Alliance, we stood a fighting chance. But Chen's influence changed all that. He found a way to turn the alliance against each other. The battle was all but lost. But in our darkest hour, we found hope. And hope found a way to end the war. The Serpentine were divided and locked away in tombs. Chen and Clouse were exiled. And the Anacondrai generals were given the strictest sentence: banishment to the Cursed Realm so that they will never set foot in Ninjago again.
Lloyd
Even after all this time, you never told Wu about your past with Chen?
What would I have said? I would have lost your mother, as well as my brother, not to mention—
Lloyd
Someone once told me you need to control your fear, and not let fear control you.
Hm, you're right. Once we put all of this behind us, I'll make things right. But first, we need to find Nya. Come on.
Lloyd
Hurry, Kai. You must destroy the staff.
[corrupted by the staff] Chen was right. This thing's awesome!
Lloyd
Kai, it holds too much power! Destroy it! [to Skylor] The power is corrupting him. If we don't get that staff out of his hands—
No one is taking my staff! You had all that power. Now it's my turn! [back to normal] Ah, what am I saying? [corrupted again] Nothing I don't already feel!
Yes, yes. Embrace the power.
[normal] I can't... I can't control it! [corrupted again] I don't want to control it! I SHOULD'VE BEEN THE GREEN NINJA!
The palace and sleeping quarters are all clear. Still no sign of Chen and Clouse.
Lloyd
She wasn't able to pick her family, but she was able to pick her friends. And since you're her friend, that means so are we. We'll find her.
He's right. With no way off the island, it'll only be a matter of time.
[walks up to the Ninja] I'm proud of you five. You've done what the original Elemental masters never could: stick together. But you must not rest on your laurels, for your guard is down when you sleep.
[sees Garmadon as an Anacondrai snake and gasps] Snake among us! [readies his Lightning]
Lloyd
No, don't! It's my father.
First it was four arms, then you became a dragon. Would you mind picking a body and sticking with it, please?
We all have this power inside of us. But you have to see that it's not the Anacondrai we're afraid of, it's our doubt. Divided, we failed. But together, we will succeed.
[All the Elemental Masters summon out their own Elemental Dragons]
Lloyd
Energy!
Metal dragon make Karlof very happy, happy.
The battle of our past has returned, but we will rise to meet that challenge!
Chen brought us here so that only one would remain. Well, we are one!
Lloyd
Chen and his Anacondrai army have a day's start on us. Be prepared for anything and everything.
How did we lose so much time?
You know, you took an oath never to leave a man behind.
And we're not all quick learners. Mastering your fear to create Power Dragons takes time.
Well, we're running out of that. There's Ninjago City. Hurry.
Lloyd
Remember, whatever happens down there, we're stronger united. We fight as one.
Thank you for looking after my Misako.
As any good brother should.
Lloyd
There isn't much time. Our friends are on standby but we don't know where Chen will strike first.
And if we're not all there to stop him when he first attacks...
Ninjago will succumb to war. Our greatest fear will come true.
Then the greatest victory will be that which has no battle.
Lloyd
[to everyone] We fight for each other, we fight as one!
Lloyd
Hold the line.
Lloyd
Hold the line. Hold!
[The Cultists charge towards them and fall through the hole]
Trapdoor?! That's my signature move! Ugh, destroy them!
Lloyd
NOW!
Misako, will you ever forgive me for the letter?
Lloyd
You can tell me yourself. [climbs into the Bounty] If anyone should be sending you off, it's me. [takes the book out of Wu's hands; chanting] "Kenji, suveris, toto-demada, cursono, neeboro, actu, cursono, neeborro."
I yearned to make the world in my image. I never realized I already had, in you.
Lloyd
[finishes chanting] "Sono, hokido, bo-rock!"
To the Anacondrai, the greatest warriors of their time.
Yeah. Now it's our turn to make our ancestors proud.
Lloyd
Because we're proud of those who were here before us to show us the way. Goodbye, Father.
His loss will affect us all.
Not his loss, his life. He made us stronger, and he brought us together.
Lloyd
I am Lloyd Garmadon, son of Lord Garmadon.
Student of Sensei Garmadon.
Lloyd
He made me who I am today. He was my father. He was my adversary. But in the end, he was my friend.
Because of him, we will live to see tomorrow.
And for every tomorrow, we'll live to honor him.
[Lloyd throws the book in the fire]
And because of him, we'll be ready for whatever comes next.
Skeletons, Snakes, Nindroids, and Anacondrai wannabes. If they can't stop us, what can?
Lloyd
That's for tomorrow to decide. Today, we say goodbye to a legend.
[The ninja are flying on their Elemental Dragons looking for a mutant Fangfish over the Endless Sea]
Lloyd
Getting ahead of yourself, Kai? Heh, I'm leading this charge.
[gets splashed with water by Lloyd] Aah!
[laughs] That's one way to cool off a hothead.
Hey, no one messes up my hair! [splashes water]
[Zane spits and coughs up water]
Affirmative. It'll take more than a little water to take me out.
[sees the Fangfish] Oh, what about a big fish? Incoming!
Based on its weight and size, this is the mutant Fangfish terrorizing the coastal village and depleting their food source.
P.I.X.A.L. says this is the one.
Lloyd
And now that he's taken the bait, let's reel him in and get him to the aquarium.
Let me guess, Kai, you caught one that big once?
Heck no. He was twice the size. [the Fangfish lunges at him] Whoa!
He's almost as hungry as you, Cole.
And twice as ugly as you, Jay.
Lloyd
It's time for the catch of the day. In line formation!
[They line up their dragons]
Lloyd
Now!
[They split up, making the fish land in a boat, and the ninja cheer]
Now that's what I call hook, line, and stinker!
Looks like we made this place safe to fish again. If your father was still here, he'd be proud. You've become a great leader, Lloyd.
Lloyd
No, we're a great team. Can't say I don't miss him. With my dad gone, sometimes I question where I'm going. Sometimes I worry about who I might become.
I know how that feels. After I lost my dad, I lost my way. But I was lucky to have my sister watch over me. Don't worry, big shot. [playfully noogies Lloyd] I'll watch over you from now on.
Lloyd
Hey, no one messes up my hair.
[as they stand in front of the skeleton of the First Spinjitzu Master; gasps] It's him. The First Spinjitzu Master.
[The ninja all kneel before the skeleton]
The Realm Crystal. [takes the crystal out of the skeleton's hands]
[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.
[In the Cursed Realm, Lloyd finds his father chained up]
Lloyd
Dad!
Lloyd? [Lloyd runs to him and hugs him] My son.
Lloyd
I'll get you out of here, Dad. [tries to break the chains]
There's no use. These chains will not break.
Lloyd
Where are we?
The Cursed Realm is the Preeminent, and the Preeminent is the Cursed Realm. Son, you're in the belly of the beast. But if you're in here...
Lloyd
Morro is the Green Ninja, and he's stolen the Realm Crystal. I tried, Father...
You must not give up. If he has the Crystal, all is endangered.
Lloyd
But how? I'm not the Green Ninja anymore.
It was never the color of the gi that made you who you are. It was the color of your heart. Don't give up.
Lloyd
I won't, Father.
You must leave here and destroy the Preeminent. Save Ninjago. Save the Realms.
Lloyd
But if I destroy it, it could destroy you.
Whatever happens to me, wherever I am, I will always be with you. There comes a time when every boy must become a man. What sort of man, is up to him.
