09x08 - Saving Faith

[bunniefuu]

(male narrator)
Previously on "Ninjago.."

(Dareth)
It's controlled
by your father's power.

That I can absorb.

You think you can pass as me?

Go.
You'll need the Dragon Armor.

Where is she?

[theme music]

[evil laughter]

(male narrator)

[dramatic music]

My Lord, I have proved my
allegiance time and time again.

For you to doubt my abilities..

Is what, two-faced?

That isn't me, Emperor Garmadon.

- Hm.
- You're the imposter!

- Arrest her--
- Let her speak.

That is Mistake

the shape-shifting Oni
I was telling you about.

She tried to get
the Master of Amber

close enough to touch you

so that the Resistance could
turn your power against us.

[grunting]

- Aah!
- Well done, Harumi.

It's good to have you back,
my child.

The pleasure
was all mine, father.

He's not your father!
His son is Lloyd.. Ugh!

I thought I smelled an Oni.

Looks like your plan backfired.

The only thing that backfired

is you turning against
your father's realm.

Ninjago is a place of light

and you are a source of shadow.

You know it all turns
to darkness.

The future is not in your hands.

Show me, Oni,
show me your real face.

Or are you worried
what your friends

might think of you, demon?

Maybe I'll show you.

[screaming]

But only for you to see
what a full-blooded Oni can do!

[grunting]

[screams]

zap

[screams]

[grunts]

[grunting]

[Oni grunting]

No!

[grunts]

Don't let her touch the emperor!

[Skylor grunts]

[laughs]

[Garmadon grunting]

- Hah!
- Ugh!

[groans]

[grunting]

[speaking in foreign language]

[grunting]

[speaking in foreign language]

[whooshing]

- Huh!
- My Emperor, look out!

[grunts]

Hmm.

Never trust an Oni.

- Gotcha.
- Argh!

- Just don't let her leave!
- Go, Skylor!

[intense music]

- Ha-ha-ha.
- It's over.

'There's nowhere to go.'

[grunts]

Surrender.

Surrender?

Never heard of it!

[grunts]

[chuckles]

That was your last mistake,
Mistake.

[intense music]

[Skylor panting]

(Killow)
'Skylor escaped. Hunt her down.'

What about the old woman?

Ah, we no longer
have to worry about her.

[laughs]

[engines revving]

[tires screeching]

Oh, no.

[eagle screeching]

[dramatic music]

Yeah. That's her.

We have to go down and save her.

No. We have to get
the Dragon Armor.

In case you've forgotten, they
don't have the map, and we do.

Kai is correct.

And it appears
this could be a trap.

Oh, really? Really?

It takes a Nindroid
to figure that out?

Uh, sorry, Wu,
but we can't go out there.

If we wanna go home, we need
to find the Firstbourne's nest.

[music continues]

Well, maybe more of his memories
came back

something that could help us
in a situation like this.

Is that true?
Do you remember more?

[sighs]

I can't lie, they haven't.

But my father told me
I have to have Faith.

And without her, we would have
never gotten this far.

Besides, ninja never leave
friends behind.

Then we've got your back.

[music continues]

They must have left her here for
the Elements to finish her off.

[muffled grunting]

[dramatic music]

Are you okay?

[coughs]

You should have not come.

'It's a trap.'

[whooshing]

[intense music]

And it's a trap.

[indistinct chatter]

[dramatic music]

clink

[laughs]
Eat off, Hunters!

We have the son of
the First Spinjitzu Master!

By first light,
with him by my side

the Firstbourne will gladly give
up the rest of the Dragon Armor.

Then it will be a feast

every night!

[cheering]

[upbeat music]

(Jay)
Could you pass a roasted lizard
stick up here?

I'm hungry, too.

No? No takers?

Ah, that's okay, I'm-I'm kinda
watching my figure anyway.

[chuckles]

I'm sorry.

I thought I was doing
the right thing

but I've only made it worse.

Mm. Your heart is pure,
but this realm is cruel.

I am just sorry
you ever had to find this place.

Ah, don't sweat it, Little Wu.
We've seen worse.

Any moment, Zane will have
cut through these binds

and we'll be outta here.

Um, I cannot cut through
these binds, Kai.

Perhaps, there is
another alternative

you were thinking of.

[sighs]
But, Zane, I'm the good looks
of the team

you're the brains.

Ugh! I thought I was the looks.

No, you're the annoying one.

What are you, the party pooper?

Mr. Party Pooper to you.

Har-har, hair gel.

[laughing]

How can you all make jokes
at a time like this?

You got this one, Jay?

Well, when all hope is lost

sometimes a good laugh is
all you need to stay positive.

Helps cope with what's bad

while opening your eyes
to what's good.

I understand, Jay.

[dramatic music]

You are the annoying one.

Eh-heh.

[laughing]

(Kai)
'He's got you numbered.'

- Did I, did I do that right?
- Yeah.

A joke?

What is so funny?

What is funny
is you feeding them this food

to cover the taste
of your lies.

[evil laughter]

Well, I'd rather be
eating food with them

than stuck on a pole with you.

[all laughing]

He only cares for himself.

If he gets the armor,
he'll have no need for you

except to kiss his hands.

[all gasping]

[laughing]

Let me ask you then,
Heavy Metal.

How can you believe
anything she says

when she hid behind a mask?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

[indistinct chatter]

Oh, yeah, yeah, that's true. Ha.

That is definitely
not what I had expected.

It's he who is the fraud.

He forced me to wear the helmet

'just as he forced you
to be his slaves.'

[gasping]

[all clamoring]

We have all heard
Baron stories

about how he fought
an army of Oni.

Well, look around,
we are on Oni land

and yet has anyone seen
a single one?

[indistinct chatter]

No, you have not.

Because his stories
are just that. Stories.

'The Oni left these lands
long ago'

'yet he keeps you
in fear of them.'

His power over you
is built on lies!

'Brave hunters d*ed'

'so that he could get
that Dragon Blade.'

How do we know it was not him
who took their lives?

[indistinct whispering]

Not another word!

[dramatic music]

Now, show of hands.

Raise them if you're with her

so I can raise my Dragon Blade
to hold off them all.

That's not fair,
you bullied them.

I said, not another word!

[crackling]

[laughing]

[gasps]

[dramatic music]

(Wu)
The best way
to defeat your enemy

is to make them your friend.

Never put off till tomorrow..

...what can be done today.

I remember.

I remember it all.

[grunts]

[dramatic music]

[gasps]
Oh, my gosh,
he just grew a mustache.

And a goatee!

Get him.

[screaming]

[grunting]

You will let my ninja go,
or else..

Or else what?

Or else I will reclaim
my father's armor

and ask his dragon
to end your rule.

I'm the son of
the First Spinjitzu Master

and this is my oath.

[intense music]

(Jay)
Alright!

Master Wu's back, baby!

So you just confirmed it.

The legend is true.

He, who reclaims the armor,
controls the Firstbourne.

That's not what I said.

You seem like a wise master.

Are you really ignorant enough

to take on me
and my entire camp?

[grunting]

Don't give in, Master Wu,
we've got your back.

Yeah, if you can
cut us down first.

Before you do something foolish

let me make you an offer.

How about you get me the armor

or else we can see right now

how good you really are
with that staff.

You want me to take you
to the Firstbourne?

Get me the armor

and I'll send your ninja home.

Do I have your word?

- Don't..
- Trust me.

There's nothing I want more.

clank

[laughs]

- Oh, no!
- I'm sorry.

But we are left
with no other choice.

Ha! We go now
to the Firstbourne!

[cheering]

Don't worry, ninja. Have faith.

I hope he knows what he's doing.

We've learned
not to question him.

You promised
whoever caught Heavy Metal

would become your number two.

Since it was me,
I must insist I go with you

for your protection.

[laughs]
Protection?

Once I have the armor,
I won't need protection.

It would be you needing me.

[laughing]

[panting]

- Skylor?
- Where's Mistake?

[panting]

She didn't make it?

[grunts]

(Harumi on radio)
'Target last seen'

'at the intersection of Nelson
and LaMonica.'

(Killow on radio)
'Got it! Movin' in.'

You were followed.

- Did you touch him?
- Yes.

- Can you control it?
- Not sure.

But there's one way to find out.

[grunts]

- Yeah! Woo-hoo!
- Yes!

- You're doing it!
- Alright!

'It's working.'

That's not me.

[intense music]

Garmadon is controlling it.

We have to go.

You can do this. Take control.

- Break his hold.
- I can't.

Ah! That's close enough for me.

[screaming]

We need to get out of here.

Your father's too powerful.

Control it, Skylor,
I have faith in you.

You felt his power
and now it's yours.

You can do it.

Control it.

Feel his power.

[laughing]

Control it.

Destroy them.

[grunts]

[grunting]

I'm doing it.

Yes. Now, use it.

[grunts]

screech

There! On the rooftop!

Watch out!

Where're you going? Cowards!

Now, we will have a fight!

[battle cry]

I've wanted it to do this
for a long time.

[screams]

[gibberish]

No! Argh!

Ah!

[breathing heavily]

No, no!

No!

Yes.

[laughs]
I always knew you can do it.

It's time to knock the emperor

off his throne.

Yah! Woo-hoo!

[shatters]

Stop it!

I can't.

We must leave.
It's not safe here anymore.

I do not flee.

I control!

[grunts]

[grunts]

[screaming]

I am the emperor.

I am the destructor.

I am in control!

[grunts]

(Nya)
Something's wrong.

[screaming]

No!

thud

[screaming]

[grunts]

Yes.

[growling]

My father's power,
it's too strong.

[grunts]

I can hold on.

[grunts]

I am in control.

[grunts]

His power, it's hurting her.

I..

[grunts]

[screams]

[gasps]

clatter

[whimpering]

(boy #1)
'Mom! Dad! Don't leave me!'

[girl crying]

- Please, take him.
- No.

I wanna stay, mama.

We'll see you when we get down.

I promise.

[sighs]

I'll get you out.

Together.

I promise.

Thank you.

Go! I'll find another way.

[grunts]

[gasps]

[screaming]

[grunting]

Let it go, Skylor.

'Let go!'

She can't.
His power will k*ll her.

Ah!

My child.

No! No!

[gasping]

[rumbling]

[mellow music]

[gasps]

Harumi.

[rumbling]

[rumbling]

No!

You want this city, Lloyd?

Then, you can have it, in ruins!

I can't wake her up.

It's like
his power poisoned her.

Whoa-whoa-whoa,
Doctor of Dark Arts

should any of us really be
making a diagnosis?

No. Nya's right.

I think the only way
to save Skylor

is to get his power out of her.

I don't know anything about that

but I do know
what's coming our way.

[growling]
