[possessing Garmadon's body] The Metamorphosis has begun!
Metamorphosis? What does that mean?
Metamorphosis is a biological process by which someone or something changes into something new.
Yeah, changes into something ugly!
No, Lloyd, that is no longer your father.
But what about the prophecy? It said I had to face my father.
You still must, but now the Overlord has possessed him. Unlike your father, the Overlord will show you no mercy.
We're here and behind you all the way.
He's tough, but you're tougher.
But we have to act before his evil gets more powerful.
[Misako, Wu, Dr. Julien and the ninja are still stuck on the Dark Island. Dr. Julien finishes bandaging Lloyd's leg]
JJulien
Hmm, I'm sorry. That leg will take weeks to heal.
The battle between good and evil will be decided today.
And we can't even get to the fight, much less get off this island. [throws a rock into the sea]
Ah, I wonder if I'll ever see Nya again.
Perhaps it's best to think of our friends as we remember them in our hearts, not as they are now.
But I don't remember my father any other way.
Your father loved you. It was the evil of the Great Devourer that corrupted him.
Sensei, I don't understand. The prophecy said the Green Ninja would defeat the Dark Lord. [throws another rock into the sea] Why didn't we win?
Don't know? You're Sensei! You always know! You have a long white beard!
There must be some message to learn. A lesson. A word of wisdom. Just a word? Something.
For once, I'm afraid there is nothing to learn. Only that evil has won.
If Sensei doesn't have a lesson, then I do. I used to be nothing but trouble, but then I met you guys. You took me in. Showed me the importance of being brave, the importance of being strong. And most importantly, being good. When this battle first began, when the First Spinjitzu Master fought the Overlord and his back was up against the wall and he knew it was all over, did he quit? No. He found a way to keep the fight going. He passed his Elemental Powers to us. Of all people, a bunch of kids. But there must have been a reason he chose us. I'd like to think it's because he knew we'd never back down, we'd never give up. We've learned the ancient ways of the ninja. And ninja never quit.
He's right. If that means we have to swim the sea to get off this island, then so be it.
[As the ninja, Wu, Misako, and Dr. Julian arrive in Ninjago City, they see the Garmatron has been transformed into a fortress of a large tower and everyone corrupted with dark matter as they land on the ground]
He's turned everyone evil.
And now they're helping his cause. I can't wait to see the look on the Overlord's face when he gets a load of us.
[The ninja then hear a roaring sound and look up at the top of Garmatron]
[shocked] Oh, my goodness! [The Overlord, now fully transformed in his original form, blasts some dark matter towards their direction] Oh, sweet mother may I.
Is that the look you were hoping for?
The Metamorphosis is complete. The Overlord's changed into his original form.
But we can't fly up there.
We have my father's Golden mech. We have to draw their fire to help Lloyd use the mech against the Overlord.
[confronting the Overlord] I have come here to fight you!
You're in no shape to fight. It's over. Evil wins.
[laughs] You don't even have a sword.
[surrounds himself with his Energy, creating a force field] I don't need a sword.
Then all I have to say is... goodbye.
[The Overlord opens his mouth and blasts Lloyd with Darkness, nearly pushing him off the building. Lloyd's Energy force field grows, turning him into the Ultimate Spinjitzu Master]
He has become the Ultimate Spinjitzu Master.
This is the Final Battle.
[now wearing gold] I am the Ultimate Spinjitzu Master!
[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.
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.
And with better catchphrases.
[Everyone, but Lloyd, all laugh]
[comforting Lloyd as he frowns] We will all miss your father.
[emerging from a pile of rocks and approaches them, limping and fully purified] Lloyd. What... what happened?
Garmadon, is it really you?
Dad? [joyfully] Oh, Dad! [runs and embraces him]
Every ounce of evil and venom is… gone.
I feel good. Aha! It's been so long.
Good to have you back, brother.
Aw, would you look at that? Who would have thought we'd ever see the day? You think we should dogpile them?
Let's give them their moment. They earned it.
It's been quite a ride, fellas.
You think there will be others?
I hope so. I liked being a ninja. It's not like we have many other skills.
Ha, speak for yourself, I'm looking forward to doing a little inventing, maybe some model-building, dabble in poetry…
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.
JHJay/Happy
All right! Who took my pudding cup? My name was clearly written on it.
CRCole/Roly
[eating Jay's pudding cup] I didn't see "Motor Mouth" on it. [throws the cup in the trash]
JHJay/Happy
I'm telling the headmaster.
WDWu/Duggee
Leave me out of it. I'm on break, too.
KTKai/Tag
Relax, Jay, you can have mine. [gives Jay his pudding cup]
JHJay/Happy
But this isn't cold. [Zane flips a switch in his arm and freezes the pudding cup] Oh, give me. [eats the pudding] Mm.
NNNya/Norrie
Hey, did you guys hear the news?
KTKai/Tag
There's trouble?
ZBZane/Betty
An emergency?
CRCole/Roly
Oh, a new menace?
NNNya/Norrie
No, we got clearance for a field trip.
[The ninja groan]
NNNya/Norrie
Not just any field trip. A field trip to tour Borg Industries.
JHJay/Happy
[gasps] Not the Borg Industries. As in home to super genius reclusive savant Cyrus Borg? Inventor of the hover car and everything else cool in this world? [Zane kicks him] Ow!
PIP.I.X.A.L./Seymour Skinner
Welcome to Borg Industries. I'm P.I.X.A.L., Cyrus' Primary Interactive X-ternal Assistant Life-form. I'm sorry to hear about the traffic accident.
CRCole/Roly
Wow, news travels fast.
PIP.I.X.A.L./Seymour Skinner
Everything in New Ninjago City is fully automated and interconnected. [turns to Zane] Your antiquated bus should be ready shortly. You are Zane, a droid like me. What does Zane stand for?
ZBZane/Betty
I stand for peace, freedom, and courage in the face of all who threaten Ninjago.
JHJay/Happy
She means your name, tin head.
ZBZane/Betty
I guess I'm just Zane.
SMSecurity Man #1/Pharrell Williams
Ah, I'm bored.
SMSecurity Man #2/Miley Cyrus
Really? Well, me too, actually.
[The elevator crashes and explodes behind them]
[A security mech tries to tip over the school bus]
CRCole/Roly
I'm on it. Ninja, go! [uses Spinjitzu to jump over the bus and pulls out the power chords on the mech] No one calls me pedestrian!
BABrad/Avicii
I always said Mr. Cole was my favorite.
[The students cheer]
[At nightfall at Garmadon's monastery, Nya and the ninja sit down with their students for training. They gasp when they see Garmadon's shadow has four arms. This turns out to be someone else, who opens the door for him]
GHGarmadon/Homer
Ah, my son. So glad you could join us.
LBLloyd/Bart
Heh, it's been a while, Father.
JHJay/Happy
[whispering to Cole] Check out the new Sensei looking sharp.
GHGarmadon/Homer
Silence! [hits Jay on the head with his staff]
GHGarmadon/Homer
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?
LBLloyd/Bart
How about me?
NNNya/Norrie
The Ultimate Battle, Round Two!
GHGarmadon/Homer
Attack me, but please, no powers. I happen to like my monastery.
[The kids laugh. Lloyd charges at Garmadon, but he dodges, making him run into a table]
GHGarmadon/Homer
You see, the key is balance. Let your opponent fight himself. [dodges more of Lloyd's attacks] Let the enemy tire himself.
LBLloyd/Bart
Argh! [Garmadon yawns then dodges his attack] Huh? [slams into a support column]
GHGarmadon/Homer
Pupils, I give you the most powerful ninja in all the land, the Golden Ninja.
