[bunniefuu]

(male narrator)
Previously on "Ninjago.."

(Jay)
A teenager?
Now, we're in for it.

(Dareth)
It's an ambush!

Please, dad, don't do this.

- Ah!
- Ugh!

(Kai)
You're Heavy Metal?

[engines revving]

[helicopter whirring]

[dramatic music]

[exhales sharply]

Let me do the talking.

[gibberish]

Iron Baron. Ha-hah!

Fancy seeing you here.

Oh, you're probably
wondering why

we're tied up here
in the desert.

[gibberish]

Heavy Metal did this to you?

Uh, technically, the Ninja, too.

They've destroyed our village

released our dragons

and now they've stolen
my best hunter from me!

[screaming]

Let me find them.

With a fleet of my own

I can catch them by sun down.

[growling]

[inhales sharply]

[grunts]

Uh-huh. Yeah.

[chuckles]
Uh, yeah.

Hey. Yep, yep, yep. Ha!

[sniffing]

Oh, I smell 'em. Ha, ha!

I'm onto that
sweet, sweet scent. Ha, ha!

Six hours ahead of us and, uh..

...yep, they're that way.

Then hunt them down!

[dramatic music]

No one touches Heavy Metal.

Save him for me!

[whirring]

[theme music]

[laughing]

(male narrator)
Episode 90.

"Two Lies, One Truth."

[horn blaring]

[tires screeching]

[crowd screaming]

[dramatic music]

It's chaos out there.
But we're safe for now.

[sighs]
Alright. We've all had our fill.

Now, are you gonna tell us
how you turned into a rat?

[slurping]

[instrumental music]

[exhales]
A rat is easy.

How about this?

Not too shabby for an old woman.

[laughing]

You're an Oni.

But we were told
Oni are dangerous.

All they wanna do is destroy.

We are. You don't want me
on your bed side.

How did you get here?

- When--
- During the time of legend.

When she crossed over in pursuit

of the First Spinjitzu Master.

When he fled the realm
of Oni and Dragon.

Mm, you listen well

Master Garmadon.

Since your grandfather
was born of both worlds

our mission was to follow him
into this realm

and turn him to our side
or destroy him.

But he wouldn't turn

and I fell in love
with this world he created.

'My fellow Oni wanted
to complete our mission'

but I turned on them
and I've helped

the First Spinjitzu Master
ever since.

Didn't you ever wonder
how Master Wu and Garmadon

have lived so long?

It is our Oni blood.

How have you kept this secret
for so long?

Transformation
is a powerful ability.

But if I'm part Oni,
why can't I do that?

Transform? You've been doing it
all your life.

From a bratty child
to the destined Green Ninja

'and now to our great leader
of the resistance.'

But to endure your father

you must transform again.

Into what?

There is but one final step

for you, young master.

'Have faith.
You will figure it out.'

[whistling]

[grunting]

I sure hope your son
figures this out.

- He will.
- Easy for you to say.

You're his mother.

[dramatic music]

He never returned
since his son got away.

We took out their entire
operation and he splits?

[laughs]
What's up with that?

Continue pressure
to find the Green Ninja.

I will find our emperor.

[exhales]
I'm parched,
and you drank my water.

Your water? That's my bag.

- Hey!
- We said we were sharing it.

- It's already half gone.
- 'I'm not the only one..'

- Argh!
- Zane had a little.

Zane doesn't need to drink.

- Admit it, you're a water hog.
- Where's Nya when we need her?

- Hey, hey, now, be careful.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa!

- Careful!
- Hi-yah!

Now we all have water.

[sighs]
Thanks.

Thanks, Faith.

We're sharing that, you know.

Ugh, how you have survived

this one is beyond me.

You know, eventually, master

you're gonna have to tell her
you don't know

where the Dragon Armor is.

My father told me to have faith

then we meet a person named
Faith the same day.

Not a co-incidence.

Uh, but that was a dream.

What if you're wrong?

What if there is no armor?

What if you're leading us to..

...to something worse?

I choose not to focus on that.

It's hard to admit
when you're wrong

but it's harder to do
what's right.

And you've never taught us
to take the easier path.

Now, I know you have faith,
but you also have

a responsibility
to tell her the truth.

There is great trouble
behind you.

Don't go making this about me.

No! There's great trouble
behind you.

[engines revving]

Uh, guys!

Baron's hunters. We need to go.

[engines revving]

I always knew
you were a defector!

[beeping]

We won!

Huh? Maybe we lost.

Definitely lost.

I can't break free.
Prepare to reverse.

What? If we reverse
at this speed..

[whirring]

[crash]

[laughs]
We did that!

Let's see what you've got.

[whirring]

[chuckles]

- Pull over.
- Ah!

Oh! Don't!

Hah! We did that!

[whirring]

Which isn't much.

[whirring]

Uh-oh.

[whooshing]

[roaring]

[intense music]

[screaming]

[whooshing]

[roaring]

Uh, guys.

Switch.

Lose him in the canyons.

[whooshing]

[music continues]

[screaming]

[expl*si*n]

Steady.

[roaring]

[crash]

Alright! We're home free.

Spoke to soon.

[Jet Jack grunting]

Hey! Come on,
get off from there.

[grunting]

Whoa!

[grunting]

Uh, a little help.

Oh-oh. Ahh!

Ha! Nice work.

Just takin' responsibility.

Where to,
son of Spinjitzu Master?

An easier path. This way.

We'll follow you.

swoosh

[tracker beeping]

Did you catch them?

No, but I know
where they are going.

[laughs]

[instrumental music]

- Look!
- Ah!

[music continues]

[dramatic music]

- Are you sure it's this way?
- Well, we're not going back.

'Cause then it'll be
our skulls on pikes.

Think before you answer,
Master Wu.

You have a responsibility
to at least do that.

Yes, the Dragon Armor
is this way.

I was afraid you'd say that.

Afraid? Heh.

You don't look like
the type of person

who'd be afraid.

(Faith)
'This is Oni Land.'

'As long as we stay on our side'

'they will stay on theirs.'

'But we need the Dragon Armor.'

"Need?" Pfft.
Need is such a strong word.

There could be other ways
of getting home.

Gaining the Firstbourne's trust

so that her dragons
can ferry us home

is the only way back to Ninjago.

How dangerous are these Oni?

Dangerous enough
that when Iron Baron

and his bravest
crossed this line

to get the Dragon Blade

he was the only one
to come back.

'Oni have a dark magic
about them.'

A destructive magic.

They are like nightfall

consuming darkness.

After the stories Baron told us

we know better than
to search these lands.

Are you sure the Dragon Armor
is this way?

- I think so?
- Do not let fear guide you.

Your first instinct
is usually correct.

(Zane)
'We must go
before it gets dark.'

[engines whirring]

After you, master.

[instrumental music]

My dark emperor.

[heavy breathing]

Garmadon.

When I had him beneath my foot

I could have crushed him

but I, I hesitated!

Ugh, you only resurrected
a destructor.

Uh, the Oni side of myself.

A child isn't born from a side.

A child encompasses all.

I have seen things
in the departed realm.

A darkness,
an everlasting night

that even frightens me.

If my father's realm
is to survive

I must be stronger.

Survive, My Dark Lord?

You said I can't
reach my true potential

until I destroy my son.

- And you will.
- How?

To be truly free
of who you were

you must forego your feelings

because who needs
to care for a son

when you already have
a-a...a daughter.

Take me. Let me be your child.

Let me be your only family

so I can help you complete
who you've set out to become.

To fight this darkness
you speak off

and to fight
to keep your father's realm.

[mellow music]

Whatever your will,
I will abide.

My child

you have given me life.

Stand and face your new father.

- Your will?
- Find the Green Ninja.

So that we can destroy him.

[intense music]

It's a dead end!

[whooshing]

So these Oni,
if they're shape-shifters

how do we know when we see one?

I mean, how do
we even know one isn't

already pretending
to be one of us?

Oh, zip it, Jay.

[eerie music]

Oni!

[grunting]

- It's a statue.
- 'A gate.'

To an Oni's stronghold.

But it's open.

Um, should we
be walking toward it?

I really thought
we'd be walking the other way.

Zip it. Duly noted.

[thud]

[doors creaking]

(Cole)
One thing you forgot
to tell us about Oni.

They're slobs, too.

(Jay)
Where is everyone?

(Zane)
Wherever they are

they haven't lived here
for centuries.

That liar!

All this time he lied to us.

'It was just a story. Made-up.'

Um, what are you talking about?

Iron Baron.

He made us believe
this was Oni Land.

No one has ever seen one because

look around, they're all gone.

But where did they go?

[growling]

He used fear to control you.

He wasn't enslaving dragons

he was enslaving us.

How could I have been so stupid?

Is any of it true?

Is there even the Dragon Armor?

I think she's asking you.

I, I don't know.

Don't know? Don't know?

Do you know how much
I sacrificed to help you?

If we can't get out of here
and Iron Baron finds me

he'll, he'll.. Ah!

[screaming]

Why did you tell me
you knew where it was?

My father told me in a dream,
"I must have faith."

And then we found you. I still
believe we will find it.

Even if you don't.

Ahh!

[grunts]

No, no, no!

[grunting]

I know that was hard to do

but it's better
to admit the truth

than carry on a lie.

Even if we never get home

the least we can do
is raise you up

to be the person
you raised us to be.

[sighs]
It's a shame about the armor.

I was starting
to believe it in myself.

We all were.

Look!

(Jay)
'Oh, it's sad, really.'

She has a lot of picked-up
issues to resolve.

That's what can happen when
you're born in a cruel world.

Not her. The gate!

[Faith grunting]

No, no, no!

Do you mind?

[grunts]

[dramatic music]

(Wu)
'The Dragon Armor.'

'It's in the nest
of the Firstbourne.'

(Faith)
'It's real.'

We have Faith.
Now we have a map.

I told you.

[engines revving]

[dramatic music]

The Green Ninja,
have you seen him?

[whimpering]

Who can tell me?

I know you're hiding him.

[whimpers]

They're here,
and they brought Harumi.

- We need to leave.
- I'll pack our things.

No.

No more running.

It's time to change things up.

And what were you thinking?

[slurping]

[boat engines revving]

Boo! Ha, ha, ha!

The Green Ninja,
have you seen him?

He's lying.

Make him tell the truth.

[laughing]

[whistling]

Look!

[dramatic music]

Don't let him get away!

[grunts]

[screaming]

[grunts]

[screaming]

[music continues]

[grunting]

How are you driving the boat?

I have my ways.

[music continues]

[grunts]

[rat squeaking]

Huh? Where did he go?

Were you expecting someone else?

[dramatic music]

[grunting]

[clanking]

[groaning]

(Lloyd)
Those who cannot change

cannot change anything.

Lloyd. You speak of change,
but look what you've become.

Nothing but a beggar in rags.

You took my friends from me

so I took yours.

Who's the beggar now?
