[Cole] A Rocky Start.

-Has anyone seen my sunscreen?
-No!

Where's my sword?

Are you bringing sneakers
or boots?

-Sneakers!
-Boots!

[both grunt]

Hey, is that my Starfarer comic?

You lent it to me, remember?

Like a year ago!

Ugh. Take it.

You're not bringing that,
are you?

My soda-guzzler? You bet.

I thought we were only supposed
to pack essential items.

This is essential.

How am I supposed to quest

and stay hydrated
at the same time, Zane?

-[slurping]
-[squawking]

Anyone have room
for my travel pillow?

[ninjas] No!

[Lloyd sighs]
That's the last of it.

What is the meaning of this?

We're off on our quest.
Remember?

To hone our ninja skills.

How long are you going for?

I don't know. Day or two?

It's like you always say,

better to have it
and not need it

than need it and not have it.

I never said that.

Ha! And you say we never listen.

I never said that either.

Master Wu,
perhaps this is an opportunity

to field-test
the new joint-tactical vehicles.

Oh! What new-joint-tactic--
What?

[rattles]

[suspenseful music]

[beeps]

Wow!

[calm music playing]

Did anyone know this was here?

-No.
-[sighs]

Nobody tells me anything.

We've been working on it
for the past six months.

I didn't even notice
any construction.

You were playing video games.

Huh?

[video game beeping]

[sighs]

[exclaiming indistinctly]

We have a secret base!

-[Kai] Whoa!
-[Cole] No way.

Wow!

[Zane] I can't believe it.

-Whoa!
-[both laughing]

What's that?

It is a heavily armoured

six-wheeled
mobile command vehicle.

I call it the Land-Bounty.

Dibs on the cycle!

-I got the red one!
-Aw!

Each vehicle is equipped
with an Operations Manual.

Please be sure
to thoroughly read--

[engine revving]

Yee-haw!

[Jay] Epic quest, here we come!

Did they even bring the luggage?

[Cole] Whoo-hoo-hoo!

This is awesome!

[whooshes]

[tyres screech]

Last one down the mountain
is a rotten egg!

[laughs]

[engine revs]

[suspenseful music]

Ah, yes, I've missed this life.

The open road, life on the go,
adventure around every turn.

What'cha reading, Zane?

A travel book about the region
we are entering.

It is called the Desert of Doom.

My data-files are incomplete
on this subject.

Really?
Why do they call it that?

According to ancient legend,
local tribes once worshiped

a giant thousand-year-old
beetle named Beohernie.

One day, for no apparent reason,

Beohernie became displeased
with their prayers

and destroyed their village.

[Lloyd] Really?

I have so many questions
about that,

I don't know where to start.

Well, it's clearly a typo.

Beohernie isn't even a name.

They obviously named him Bernie.

[Cole on comm][/i]
Hey, guys?[/i]

Anyone else
starting to get hungry?

Because I see a cool
little oasis coming up.

[motorcycle engine revs]

Good idea.
Lunch break, everyone.

Oh, yeah. Ah!

[Jay] That hit the spot.

[beeping]

Hmm. Listen to this.

Another interesting anecdote.

"Travellers entering
the Desert of Doom

should be wary
of encountering mirages."

Uh. Mirages?

An optical illusion

often seen at sea
or in the desert.

Cool! I wanna see a mirage.

[groans]
Is there another PB&J?

Check the cooler.

Whoa! Did you guys see that?

I saw it.

Unless it was a mirage.

Mirages do not eat coolers.

[rumbling]

Oh, no...

-It's--
-What? What is it?

[Jay] It's Bernie!

Run!

Ah, why did we park so far away?

[roars]

[all panting]

[grunts]

[yells]

Cole!

[whimpers]
My guzzler!

Forget it! Run!

[Cole] No!

[Cole wailing]

Don't look back, Cole!
Trust me! Just run.

[grunts]

Uh, where is it?
Where did it go?

[engine revs]

[rumbling]

[Lloyd] It's under us!

Get us out of here, Zane!

[Zane] Hold on, everyone!

Give it more gas!

The engine is
at maximum acceleration.

-[Lloyd] Oh, hold on!
-[Jay] To what?

[Nya] Cole! Kai!

We need help!

On my way.

[beetle screeches]

[panting]

[roars]

[laughs]
Ooh, I think he's angry.

[Lloyd] It's gonna charge!
Get out of there!

Hang on, Kai!

[Kai] Man, this thing is fast!

I'll try to distract him.

[motorcycle engine revs]

[Cole whimpers]

[whooping]

[laughs]

[Nya] What kind of weapons
do we have?

Didn't anyone read the manual?

-Uh--
-I was gonna read it...

Oh, never mind!

[grunts]

[grunts]

[Nya] Slam the brakes!

[brakes squealing]

-Ha! You got him!
-Nice sh*t!

[all wailing]

[Zane straining]
I think he's got us!

[beeping]

[Lloyd]
The engine's overheating!

[Nya] We have a problem!

We have to slow down!

I'm trying!

[brakes squealing]

[grunts]

What's he doing now?

What do we do?

We need to get off the sand.

Zane, what is that?

[beeping]

[Zane] It is a cluster of rocks.

If we can make it to those rocks
we might have a chance.

It's worth a sh*t.
If the engine holds out...

[Nya] Guys, there are some rocks
due north.

Head for those, okay? On three.

One, two, three!

[engine revving]

Here he comes!

[Jay] Oh, he's chasing us!

[Lloyd] Punch it, Zane!

Huh...

-What the...
-It's a mirage!

Now, I've seen everything.

Or nothing.

Over there.

[Lloyd and Nya] Hard left!

Another mirage?

Oh, man!

[Jay] Please be real.

Please be real!

[screams]

[both gasp]

[Nya] Hold on!

-Ah!
-[engine revs]

[sighs]

[engine turning over]

[grunts]

[pants]
Everyone okay?

[all sigh]

-[Nya] Yeah.
-I think so.

Oh, this is the
worst quest ever!

[crackling]

[Beohernie roars]

[Beohernie growls]

This is not good.

This is really, really not good.
