02x19 - The Final Game

[bunniefuu]

[intense music]

[metal clanking]

[sizzles]

Ah, brother. Back sooner than expected.

How went the south?

How do you think it went?

Everything below the Jagged Divide

has either submitted
to the Army of the Five,

or was razed to the ground
by the power of Shatterspin.

But don't take my word for it.

[scoffs]
Who's this pathetic beast?

A souvenir I collected on my travels.

Believe it or not,
there's a tribe down there

who considers this to be a great champion.

Speak, wretch. Tell them of my glory.

Of our glory.

[growls]

How could you?

The evil you've done to my people!

[laughter]

Listen, whelp,

what you call evil, we know as strength.

And what was done to your people,

done across the Wyldness,

will soon be done
to every realm of creation.

Prepare, my fellow conquerors.

Soon, we walk the realms.

[dragons roaring]

Hm. Something's coming from the east.

Don't worry, my brother.

It will not be long now.

He must be crushed.

Oh, he will be.

Just as his ancestors once were.

And the long-delayed plans

of the Forbidden Five will finally unfold.

♪ Lost in the unknown so much to see ♪

♪ Together we will rise! ♪

♪ We fight ♪

♪ Be a ninja for what's right! ♪

[flame roaring]

[light music]

- Look out!
- Ugh!

Ugh. I don't care for being jostled about
like a sack of beets.

But I really don't care
for getting crushed.

So, thank you,
for your timely intervention, young lady.

You know us Ninja,
we're all about helping others,

is what they keep telling me.

I wonder what could have caused
that brick to fall like that.

Meh, sometimes bricks fall.

Probably no one set that up
as a prank or anything.

Hey-hey, bet an important guy like you

has major urgent stuff to do, huh?

Yes, my duties are quite indispensable.

I'd better get on with them.

Ha. Switched with a fake
and that old grump never even noticed.

The being-crushed-by-a-brick
prank works again!

The Lava-Tides used to love it.

And it rarely ever
decimated their entire village.

There's gotta be some clues
to Bleckt's crimes in--

[gasps] Huh?

What language is this?

It's gibberish!

Master Wu?! Is it--

Is it really you?

[doors bang open]

Master Wu, where'd you go?

Cole, look!

[mysterious music]

[Cole]
More Portal Gates?

[Arin]
Is that the Cloud Kingdom?

Guess we know where that gate goes.

[Cole]
That looks like Mysterium.

And there's the Land of Lost Things.

And Ninjago, our home.

Fourteen, fifteen, sixteen.

Huh, one gate for each of the realms?

- [Master Wu] Yes.
- [Cole, Arin gasp]

Master Wu?

It's really you, isn't it?

Yes.

We've missed you so much!

What happened to you in the Merge?

Are you-- are you departed?

And why are you suddenly appearing now?!

Horns.

Horns? He doesn't mean...

[Cole]
He does.

[Arin] The crowns of the m*rder*d dragons!

Wait, Master Wu!

Ras told me you caused the Merge.

Did you?

Arin, Ras is a liar.

There's no way Master Wu would ever--

I need to know!

Did you cause the Merge?

Yes.

Huh?

[whooshing]

That-- That can't be right.

Everything I thought I knew...

it's all wrong.

Okay. I'm trying
for twice as far this time.

And-- Poof!

[coughing]

How does Cinder live like this?

- [coughs]
- Hydration recommended.

[coughs] Thanks, Zane.

So, did I get twice as far?

You actually appear to
have gone slightly backwards.

Argh! That jerk Cinder
made it look so easy,

but nothing's working!

I can't Quake like Frak,
or use Elemental Reflex like Zur.

I have their powers,

why can't I be like any of them?

I think that's the problem, Sora.

You're trying to be like them.

Uh, yeah! What else can I do?

You can be you.

[scoffs] Being me isn't great right now.

My best friend hates me.

My Spinjitzu still won't spin-jitz.

And an evil loser from ancient times

is about to trash me
in front of a live audience.

Sora, I've seen you do things
no one else could ever do.

Stop trying to use Elemental Powers
the way everyone else did.

Think of how only Sora would use them.

And how's that?

I don't know.

But I look forward to finding out.

I think the time for coaching is over.

Be right back.
There's someone I need to talk to.

I got your note.

What note?

Look, I don't understand
what's going on with you, Jordana,

but I want to tell you, I'm sorry.

I didn't remember you
from when we were in school together.

I know that upset you and
made you feel unimportant.

Me and my friend Arin have been-- I just--

I wish I hadn't been
so wrapped up in my own stuff.

I wish I'd remembered you.

School was a really lonely
time in my life,

and I could have used a friend.

Maybe we both could have.

So, I'm sorry.

[scoffs] Pathetic.

What is this? Clown language?! Ugh!

This language is Devonian, like me.

Master Zur? Wait, you can talk?

Of course. Why would you think otherwise?

I've never heard you say anything.

Just grunts and harsh looks.

Plus, I'd expect your voice
to sound more...

I don't know, evil-ish?

My kind are extremely shy.

But because of our appearance,

there are those who make false assumptions

and spread rumors about us.

Devonians are renowned
for our kindness, actually.

So, you can actually read this?

Yes, it is a ancient form of my language,

from the early days of our history.

It must still be used here
in the City of Temples.

I can help you translate this book,
if you would like.

[crowd cheering]

Ah. Today's just
another normal day, I guess?

Wrong! Today is the most important day
in the history of all time and forever!

The final championship

of the greatest Tournament ever
Games-mastered!

- [cheering]
- [fireworks exploding]

In this corner, Sora,

coached by her Ninja teacher,
Master Lloyd Garmadon!

[cheering]

And in this corner, Nokt,

coached by his commander,
Lord Ras of the Wyldness.

[cheering]

With this final match,

the Tournament will end
just like it started:

One-on-one combat!

Last one standing wins it all!

Time to go "be myself," or whatever.

Let the game begin!

[cheering]

[grunts] Ah!

Ugh.

[gasps, murmurs]

I have no idea how you even
made it this far, girl.

But I promise you, you've
never faced anyone like me.

I faced parents like you.

I faced a whole realm like you.

[yawns] Is your sob story over yet?

[Roby] Straight for the Shatterspin,
folks!

Looks like this match might end
before it really gets started.

A little ice?

Please.

[rumbling]

I do not understand.

Why is she combining Frak's quake power

with my ice power?

[pounding]

And now Elemental Reflex power?

I don't know, but it looks like something
no one else would try.

[expl*si*n]

Aah!

Whoa! Somehow, Sora created a barrier

that vibrated exactly counter
to Shatterspin.

Can you believe how good my games are?

Finish this, you fool!

Throw everything else you've got at her!

[expl*si*n]

[grunts, coughs]

[zaps]

[grunts]

Power after power, blow after blow!

Are you not entertained?!

[cheering]

- Lloyd, we found them!
- Found what?

The missing horns of the dead dragons.

Cole and I found them.

- Where?
- They're in another Monastery.

Jordana gave us a message
that led us to them.

Jordana? Does that prove
Ras is behind all this?

I think so. We know
he was meeting with Bleckt.

But I don't know what he plans
to do with the horns.

He's determined to get control

of all the Elemental Powers in this game.

He's gotta be planning to use the powers

and the horns together
to get to the Source Dragons.

You and Zane, go back and
get those horns out of there.

Ras can't use 'em if he can't find them.

I'll stay to coach Sora.
She's gotta win this game.

There's something else.

We saw the ghost of Master Wu
in the Monastery.

What?

He said he caused the Merge.

What? That-- That's impossible.

Lloyd, it's true.

[Sora yells]

We can't let Ras win.

Arin, Zane, get those horns out of there!

Come on, Zane.

[menacing music]

[both grunting with effort]

Nokt should have won by now.

He cannot fail me.

[grunting]

[yells]

[grunts]

[yells]

Ugh.

There's nothing you can do
that I can't do better, kid!

Sora! Remember,

if you can't outfight him, outsmart him!

What's that thing?

Probably not a fashion choice.

You think you defeat me with a bumble-bee?

[buzzes]

- [grunts]
- [zapping]

- [grunts]
- [zapping]

Looks like it's all over, folks!

[cheering]

[grunts]

Ugh!

Wait. What?

Oh! Lucky for Nokt,
the arena suddenly shifts in his favor!

Expect the unexpected, folks!

We didn't program the floor to move
in the final match, did we?

Not sure. But isn't giving the crowd
high drama what you want?

Well, yeah, I guess.

[grunts]

[grunts]

[both grunting with effort]

Ah!

[Roby]
Coming back from behind,

Nokt hits Sora with Shatterspin

before she can react!

And with only one player left standing,

this tournament has a new champion.

Nokt is the winner!

[crowd cheering]

[fireworks exploding]

[cheering]

You were amazing out there.

Better than me.

Than nearly every Elemental Master ever.

But Ras is gonna have control
of all the powers now.

Let's hope Arin and Zane
manage to get those horns.

And so, for the final time in these games,

I'll transfer powers with the Element Cup.

Whoop-whoop!

And now, the Victory Ceremony to declare
a new Champion of the Sources!

[crowd cheering]

[Wyldfyre]
Objection!

[crowd gasps]

What? You can't object
to the victory ceremony.

[scoffs] You clearly know nothing
of the ancient rites!

Okay, then, "point of order"?

That's not a thing either!

Uh, "time out"?

No, no, no!

These games have been rigged!

- [crowd gasps]
- What?

- That's so unfair.
- I don't understand.

[gasps] Vile slander!

How dare you impugn the honor
of the age-old Tournament of Sources!

For shame!

I dare 'cause I've got your ledger!

And I can read it,
thanks to my new best-bud, Zur!

[growls] What?

The menu from the banquet?

The ol' swapped-with-a-menu
prank! Classic!

Bleckt here is such a stickler
for ledgers,

he kept detailed notes
on everything about the games,

including his own crimes.

Like him conspiring with Ras!

[gasps, murmurs]

It's all here. Check it out!

Bleckt sent the attack bots to get rid of
Ras' strongest competition...

us Ninja and Zur.

He even sent a fake one against Ras
to throw off suspicions.

Bleckt's been rigging the games!

Nothing too obvious,

but always slightly in favor of Ras' team.

It's true. It's all in here.

He's the reason the Ninja didn't
get their invites in the first place.

And Zeatrix was actually right,

Uncle Bleckt was trying to sideline her.

The honor of the games
is like you're whole thing, Uncle B.

What would make you
do something like this?

Because of you!

You simpleton!
You infantile half-wit!

When my stupid brother put you in charge,

I knew you'd ruin the games
with all your zang-toot ideas!

It was the only way
to save the games from total ruin!

Once I helped Ras win,
he'd get rid of you.

And then, I would be the new Gamesmaster,

and dignity would be restored!

First of all, it's "stang-zoot."

Uncle Bleckt, you are mega,
reverse, negative stang-zoot!

[boos, yelling]

[clears throat]
In light of this,

I declare the Victory Ceremony canceled.

Security!

[warbles]

In light of that, I un-cancel it!

[building yell]

[gasps]

[grunting]

Finally. The powers
I've always deserved!

Good. Time for
the next phase of the plan.

Actually, change of plans.

I don't work for you anymore, Ras.

[grumbles, gasps]

There's many things
I've come to hate about you.

One of them is how clever
you think you are.

You put a technological
control collar on me,

then you sent me to fight the
Elemental Master of Technology?

He is kind of slow on the uptake,

isn't he, brother?

"Brother"?

Rox of the Forbidden Five?

[Jordana/Rox]
Nokt's physical body

escaped the Nether Space that day.

But you never realized my soul escaped

to the nearest form I could find.

Not the body I would have picked,

but good enough for my brother and I
to hunt some dragons.

[growls]

[roars]

[clangs]

Dragons?

Ras, you really didn't know?

Why did you k*ll those three dragons?

They did nothing to you.

For the crowns, of course.

With enough Dragon Ivory,
and a multitude of Elemental Powers...

we don't need a Blood Moon ritual

to bring back the rest
of the Forbidden Five!

[roars]

You'll do no such thing.

[intense music]

[crowd chatters worriedly]

[bongs]

You will go with me
to the Cauldron of Realms

and complete my Master's will,

or you will be crushed.

[laughs] Oh, Ras.

Did you forget where
you got those masks from?

Did you forget who created them?

And you've barely even
scratched the surface

of their true powers.

[worried chatter]

Finish them!

Every single one of them!

[intense music]
