Garmadon quotes from Ninjago

I'm afraid those are for display only.

Garmadon

Hmm... tell me, what good is a weapon if all it's used for collecting dust?

Don't be a fool! Father warned that their power's beyond any one man—

Garmadon

Father was the fool!

How dare you speak so lowly of Father! We made him a promise. These weapons shall not leave this Monastery!

Garmadon

Then I shall destroy it, and all who stand in my way!

Lloyd

Dad? Is it really you?

Garmadon

It is, son.

Lloyd

Dad? Why do you have four arms?

He's gonna be okay.

Garmadon

Thank you, Kai.

Zane

But how did you survive? How did you discover the key to unlocking your powers?

Kai

I knew when I had to make a choice. I wanted the Fangblade so badly, to prove I was good enough to become the Green Ninja. But then I figured it out: all of my training to become the best ninja wasn't in preparation to become the Green Ninja. It was... to protect him.

Lloyd

What? What is everybody looking at me for?

Nya

That means...

Lloyd is the Green Ninja. I had thought it would be one of you, but it was him the whole time. It all makes sense. Not only have you four been chosen to protect the Golden Weapons, but also to protect the Chosen One.

Garmadon

[realizes something] That means...

The battle lines have been drawn, brother. Sadly, our family has only become more divided. Brother versus brother, and now, son versus father.

Jay

Hehe, this is heavy and all, but whatever happened to the FANGBLADE?!

Garmadon

You're becoming stronger, son, but you'll never be strong enough to defeat me. Give up, before it's too late. [Lloyd looks at the ninja before looking back at him, and stands by his friends] Have it your way. Another day, ninja. Another day!

Jay

Ah, great. Lord Garmadon is back, and now he's got our ship.

Well, at least we've got this little guy.

Garmadon

Instead of things that have already failed to destroy the ninja, how about something new?

Can you create a giant ham sandwich?

Garmadon

A poisoned giant ham sandwich?

I would hope not. I'm sssso hungry.

It looks like it's going to be a photo finish.

[chanting] Ninja! Ninja! Ninja! Ninja! Ninja! Ninja! Ninja! Ninja! Ninja! Ninja!

Garmadon

I won. I won! Clearly I passed the finish line first!

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner! [everyone looks at the screen and sees that the headlamp on the Ultra Sonic Raider jet crossed the finish line first] The ninja! The ninja have won!

Jay

[removes the headlamp] Yeah! I knew it would bring us luck!

Garmadon

No! That's not fair! That wasn't even part of the vehicle in the first place! It's not even street legal! My ship was…

Lloyd

Your ship? [Garmadon looks up to see him and the Ultra Dragon on the deck of the Black Bounty] I believe this belongs to us.

Garmadon

No! No! NO! [cries in anguish]

Garmadon

[shocked to see that Lloyd is now grown up after blasting ice powers on his Mega Weapon] Lloyd, is that you?

Lloyd

Yeah, I've grown a little since the last time you saw me, Dad.

Misako

[as Lloyd flies down on his Golden Dragon] You were brilliant, son.

Because of you, Ninjago was saved. Because of you, there will be a tomorrow.

Kai

Speaking of which, if the Overlord should ever decide to show his face again around here, we'll be ready.

And next time, we'll be a little more humble.

Zane

And a little more wise.

Jay

And with better catchphrases.

Misako

[comforting Lloyd as he frowns] We will all miss your father.

Garmadon

[emerging from a pile of rocks and approaches them, limping and fully purified] Lloyd. What... what happened?

Misako

Garmadon, is it really you?

Lloyd

Dad? [joyfully] Oh, Dad! [runs and embraces him]

Misako

Every ounce of evil and venom is… gone.

Garmadon

I feel good. Aha! It's been so long.

Good to have you back, brother.

Garmadon

Wu! Good to be back.

Jay

Aw, would you look at that? Who would have thought we'd ever see the day? You think we should dogpile them?

Kai

Let's give them their moment. They earned it.

It's been quite a ride, fellas.

Zane

You think there will be others?

I hope so. I liked being a ninja. It's not like we have many other skills.

Jay

Ha, speak for yourself, I'm looking forward to doing a little inventing, maybe some model-building, dabble in poetry…

Kai

Jay's right. We've come a long way and there's no reason why we can't use what we've learned in our everyday lives. And who knows? We may have gotten the balance right today, but there's always tomorrow. There's no way of knowing what's around the corner. But as long as there's something worth fighting for, there's always a need for a ninja. And we'll be ready.

Ah, my son. So glad you could join us.

Heh, it's been a while, Father.

[whispering to Cole] Check out the new Sensei looking sharp.

Silence! [hits Jay on the head with his staff]

OW!

Close your mouth and open your ears. Tonight's lesson is the Art of the Silent Fist, to fight without fighting. May I have a volunteer?

How about me?

The Ultimate Battle, Round Two!

Attack me, but please, no powers. I happen to like my monastery.

You see, the key is balance. Let your opponent fight himself. [dodges more of Lloyd's attacks] Let the enemy tire himself.

Argh! [Garmadon yawns then dodges his attack] Huh? [slams into a support column]

Pupils, I give you the most powerful ninja in all the land, the Golden Ninja.

Why must everything have so many weapons?

Says the man who had four arms to possess the Golden Weapons.

Haha, I deserved that.

I'm reading Zane's signal aboard that rocket ship, along with four other lifeforms.

Oh, by the grace of the First Spinjitzu Master.

You wanted them to take risks. To see how far they'd go. Is this what you had in mind? How far? How far must they go?

[looks up at the rocket launching into space; hopefully] Come back safe to us, ninja. Come back safe.

Lloyd

You know him. You said his name's Clouse.

Garmadon

Don't be fooled by his attire. He is a Master of Dark Arts and Master Chen's number two.

Huh, I thought Master Chen's number two was an eggroll and fried rice.

Kai

Why haven't you or Wu ever told us there are others with powers like us?

Garmadon

Because there are some things we don't want you to know. You were led to believe you were special, yet you never questioned where your powers came from.

Jay

Uh, are you implying that I'm not special?

Garmadon

Everyone on this ship is a descendant of an original Elemental Master.

Lloyd

Elemental Master? Who were they?

Garmadon

They were the First Spinjitzu Master's guardians, each endowed with an Elemental Power that has passed down through generations.

Kai

if that's true, then so is my sister Nya. But she can't do what I can.

Garmadon

Can't she? Power lies in all of you. It only needs to be awoken. The fighters here serve no master and have managed to unlock their own True Potential. For instance, that pale man, a distant relative to the Master of Light. Watch closely and you'll see how he's stayed hidden all these years. [Mr. Pale disappears, shocking the ninja. Griffin Turner runs by] Then there's Griffin Turner. Grandson to the Master of Speed.

Hey, you can't lay a hand on me. I'm faster than fast, swifter than swift!

Jay

Uh, Master of Speed? Pfft. That's not an Element.

Garmadon

So asks the Master of Lightning.

Oh, snap, he got you there.

Garmadon

I swore to never return.

Jay

You know, you should never swear. It's a sign of weak verbal skills.

Welcome to the Tournament of Elements. Now everyone can all di—[the door suddenly closes and everyone gasps] —rect your attention to me!

Garmadon

[whispering to Lloyd] I forgot to mention he has a penchant for theatrics.

[laughs] Never before have so many Elemental Fighters been under one roof. I see Master of Fire, Earth, Shadow, Speed, even a prophesied Green Savior. And a former pupil has returned. [points to a gong] This symbol before you is for the Anacondrai, fiercest Serpentine warrior to ever roam this land. Its creed: "Only one can remain."

Kai

Good, looks like we're each in our own bracket. We won't have to face each other for a while.

Lloyd

Better find Zane before that happens.

[presents a Jadeblade] Behold, a Jadeblade. Here, it represents life. Obtain it, move on. Allow your opponent to take it, loser. The rules are simple. Every match will be different. No two fights will be the same. Your powers will keep you in the Tournament. Use it or lose it.

Karlof

Hm, what does Karlof win?

Win and stay on the island. Win it all, and you'll receive fortunes beyond your wildest dreams, and lifetime supply of Master Chen noodles. But no one is here because of noodle. You want the glory of being the greatest fighter in all of Ninjago!

Garmadon

And what happens if they lose?

Lose? Who here likes to lose? [everyone else laughs, except the ninja] Now please, enjoy my island. It's a super fun happy place. Hahaha. Fun time on me.

[eating] At least the chow's good.

Jay

Arrgh, it's killing me. What's under the trapdoor? What happens when you lose?

Garmadon

Don't think about that.

Jay

It's all I can think about. I moved on. I feel guilt. These are not good feelings.

Kai

You think you feel bad? Imaging how I feel. Our mission is simple. Tonight we find Zane and get off this crazy island.

And just how are we supposed to do that? You heard Chen. Break a rule and we're out. He's not gonna let us roam around.

Kai

Then it's a good thing we're ninja. Meet me in my room at midnight.

[enters] You mind if I join you?

Jay

Disappear, pal! This is private. [Mr. Pale turns invisible] I know you're still here. I can see your lunch tray. [Mr. Pale leaves]

Wow, Jay, you were really mean.

Jay

How am I supposed to know if we can trust him? See what this island is doing to me? It's corrupting me! It has to stop. I'll see you tonight.

Garmadon

There's a valuable lesson here, son. If you turn your back on your first evil Sensei in an effort to go straight… you may not be served creamy biscuits.

Lloyd

Well, I know what we are being served. A whole bunch of baloney. [to Kai] This isn't a fighting tournament, it's an alibi for Chen to steal everyone's powers. But we still don't know why.

Kai

Isn't it obvious? Chen wants to destroy New Ninjago City. I don't know what it is, but that place has had a string of bad luck.

I'm not so sure. From what Sensei G's told us about him, I have a feeling it's something far more sinister.

Jay

And may I remind us, we still don't know where Zane is, which is why we all need to take care of our first rounds to give us more time. Don't look at me. I've already moved on.

Your opponent got himself kicked out.

Jay

[chuckles] Either way, it's my day off. Extra creamy biscuits. And don't skimp.

Taking a day off? And here I thought ninja never quit.

Jay

I used to think ninja wouldn't steal your girlfriend!

Garmadon

Whatever you have to say to each other, say it now, because harbouring grudges hurts no one but yourselves.

Lloyd

He's right, you two should be preparing to fight your next opponent, not each other.

What grudge? I already dropped it.

Jay

I dropped it first.

Did not!

Jay

Did too!

Garmadon

The tournament will test them, Lloyd. Either find a way for them to make peace, or neither of them will move on.
