[Pixal] "The Kaiju Protocol."

[beavers chanting]

Fix it! Fix it! Fix it!

Fix it! Fix it! Fix it!

[Pixal] I do not believe

this is the Never-Realm,
Master Wu.

[gasps]

I've reached
the same conclusion.

[grunting]

[all] Fix it! Fix it! Fix it!

Fix this!

[all chanting]
Fix it! Fix it! Fix it!

[sighs]

Mystake's Traveller's Tea recipe
does not appear powerful enough

to reach the Never-Realm.

What else can we do?

Perhaps we should add
more leaves.

The stronger the tea,
the more powerful the effect.

We are running out of leaves.

Which is why
it should have been me

to go after Zane and not them.

[Pixal] We have discussed this,
Master Wu.

It was my assessment

that the Ninja were more likely
to succeed

and find Zane.

And maybe they have.

But the amount of tea
they took with them

will not be enough to return.

We will have to open a gateway
for them.

I am tripling the amount of tea.

[dramatic music]

[groans]

[Master Wu]
It's the First Realm.

[sighs]

I am beginning to wonder
if there could be a reason

for our failure.

Like what?

Perhaps there is something

about the nature
of the Never-Realm itself

that prevents
the Traveller's Tea

from working?

Perhaps it is the only realm

which cannot be reached
by Traveller's Tea?

Let us hope it is not so.

Otherwise,
the Ninja are lost forever.

Is it the Never-Realm?

I am not sure.

[snarling]

Did you hear that?

It sounds like the Land Bounty.

I do not believe
that is a mechanical sound.

It has to be. Listen.

[snarling]

No. Impossible.

It's the Departed Realm. No!

Something is coming through.

Uh...

[roaring]

[gasps]

[Wu grunting]

[Master Wu] No!

What have I done?

That creature is the Preeminent,

then living embodiment
of the Cursed Realm.

It must be stopped.

Sound the alarm
and alert the city.

I will take care
of the Preeminent.

[suspenseful music]

[alarm beeping]

Initiate Protocol Kaiju.

[beeping]

[Pixal] Primary laser initiate.

[whirring]

Halo jets initiate.

[whirring]

Safety protocols disabled.

-[all screaming]
-[man over PA] Evacuate.

-Evacuate. Evacuate.
-[roaring]

Evacuate. Evacuate. Evacuate.

What is that thing?

A slimy tentacle monster.

[car alarm wailing]

Gayle Gossip, Ninjago City News,

on the scene, over midtown,

where a gigantic creature
is attacking the city.

[roaring]

We'll be back
after a short message!

[Gayle and Vinny screaming]

[Gayle and Vinny grunt]

[sighs]

Samurai X. Thank you.

[Pixal] Thanks are unnecessary.

It is the civic duty
of all citizens to--

[gasps]

[roaring]

[roars]

[tense music]

[beeping]

You're getting all this,
right, Vinny?

You should be getting this.

Oh. Uh...

[Pixal] Preeminent,
please desist

in this course of action.

If you will follow me
back to the monastery,

I will guarantee
your safe and speedy return

to the realm of your origin.

Do you understand?

[snarling]

Thank you for choosing the path
of peace and--

[grunts]

[roars]

[Pixal] Very well.

Just remember,
this was your choice.

[snarls]

[humming]

[Gayle] For those of you
just turning in,

I repeat Samurai X is battling
a giant monster downtown...

-Oh.[/i]
-...near Borg Tower.[/i]

[expl*si*n]

[burps]

[tense music]

[roaring]

[roars]

[Pixal] Once again, please
desist in your course of action.

[grunts]

-[beeping]
-[roaring]

[Pixal grunts]

Pixal. Am I reading this right?

-You're haemorrhaging power.
-[thuds]

You've got to get out of there!

[Pixal] At this moment,
that is impossible.

But your power reserves.

I am the city's
only line of defence.

There is no backup plan.

[roaring]

[electricity humming]

Pixal? What are you doing?

Attempting to replenish
energy reserves.

No. Not a power overload.

That much raw energy
could burn you out.

[Pixal] That is a risk
I am willing to take.

I don't mean burn out the mech.
I mean burn out you.

Your robotic body is plugged
into the mech's systems.

Pixal, it's too dangerous.

If this doesn't work,
please tell Zane...

I love him.

Pixal! Pixal, no!

[whirring]

[roaring]

[roars]

[Preeminent roaring]

[Master Wu][/i]
Pixal? Pixal, are you there?[/i]

Pixal?

Pixal?

[Pixal] Did it work?

Pixal.

Yes, it worked!

You are amazing.

I did only what was required.

Pixal. You are amazing.

Does that mean
you are no longer angry with me?

Yes. That's what it means.

And so the dramatic conflict
ended moments ago

when Samurai X defeated
the creature,

saving dozens of lives,
my own included.

Which is why I'd like to end
this broadcast

with a simple
thank you, Samurai X.

Well, that takes care of that.

It is unfortunate that,
to return the Preeminent,

we had to use
the remainder of our tea.

The Ninja are doomed.

What would you tell the Ninja
if they were in this situation?

I would tell them...

not to give up hope.

Ninja never quit.

Then I think you should trust
your own words.

The Ninja
will find their way home.

Somehow.

Some way.
