Original subtitles

PREVIOUSLY ON "NINJAGO"...

Misako: MORRO HAS THE SWORD OF SANCTUARY.

Kai: WE KNOW WHAT MORRO WANTS WITH THE TOMB.

HE'S AFTER A CRYSTAL THAT CAN UNLEASH THE PREEMINENT

TO CURSE THE 16 REALMS.

Lloyd's voice: TAKE THE SWORD, KAI!

I CAN'T HOLD HIM MUCH LONGER!

LLOYD?

WE GOT THE SWORD!

Wu: NOW ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FIND THE TOMB.

* THEY SAY, "GO SLOW"

* AND EVERYTHING JUST STANDS SO STILL *

* WE SAY, "GO, GO"

* YOU'RE GONNA SEE US RIP INTO IT... *

* JUST JUMP UP, KICK BACK

* WHIP AROUND AND SPIN

* NINJA, GO

* COME ON, COME ON

* AND DO THE WEEKEND WHIP

EPISODE 51 -- "THE CROOKED PATH."

THERE. THIS SHOULD KEEP CUSTOMERS AWAY.

"CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS."

MORE LIKE FORTIFICATIONS.

IF MORRO AND HIS GHOULS SHOW UP HERE

LOOKING TO STEAL THE SWORD OF SANCTUARY,

THEY WON'T KNOW WHAT HIT 'EM.

AAH!

[ GRUNTS ]

CAREFUL!

YOU KNOW, NOT ALL OF US ARE IMMUNE TO WATER.

AND I, FOR ONE, WOULD LIKE TO STICK AROUND LONG ENOUGH

FOR MISAKO AND SENSEI TO FIGURE OUT THE LAST CLUE.

WE GOT CYCLON-DO, WE GOT THE SWORD.

NOW THEY JUST HAVE TO FIGURE OUT

WHERE THE TOMB OF THE FIRST SPINJITZU MASTER IS.

LET'S HOPE THEY FIGURE IT OUT SOON.

I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG WE'LL BE ABLE TO HOLD OUT.

WE KNOW THE SKULL REPRESENTS HIS TOMB.

Misako: BUT FROM EVERYTHING THAT WAS EVER WRITTEN ABOUT IT,

THERE'S NOTHING IN NINJAGO THAT MATCHES ITS DESCRIPTION.

WHERE IS IT?

THE CLUES ARE ALL RIGHT HERE.

BUT WHAT ARE WE MISSING?

WE MUSTN'T GIVE UP.

IF MORRO FINDS IT FIRST AND TAKES THE REALM CRYSTAL,

I'D HATE TO THINK WHAT WOULD HAPPEN NEXT.

[ BELL JINGLES ]

THE EARLY DETECTION WARNING SYSTEM.

INTRUDER!

LET 'EM HAVE IT! PULL!

[ SIGHS ]

NO WONDER YOU'RE GOING OUT OF BUSINESS.

NO! YOU'RE THE ONE GOING OUT OF BUSINESS!

[ CHUCKLES ]

WHO SENDS LETTERS ANYMORE?

GUYS, HE'S RIGHT.

IT SAYS THEY'RE GONNA SHUT US DOWN

UNLESS WE DRUM UP SOME BUSINESS.

WELL, DON'T TELL RONIN.

IF THIS PLACE IS WORTHLESS, HE WON'T WANT TO STICK AROUND.

AND WE NEED ALL THE HELP WE CAN GET.

COME ON. WE'RE GONNA NEED MORE WATER BALLOONS.

[ WHISTLING ]

COME ON, NYA.

BECOME THE WATER.

REVERSE THE FLOW.

[ SIGHS ]

[ GROANS ]

GIVING UP ALREADY?

OF COURSE NOT!

SENSEI THINKS IF I GET OVER MY FEAR OF FAILURE,

I'LL BE ABLE TO CONTROL THE WATER.

SURE, I MADE IT RAIN WHEN I WASN'T EVEN PAYING ATTENTION,

BUT HERE I CAN'T SEEM TO STOP A SINGLE DROP.

WANT TO KNOW ABOUT FAILURE, YOU SHOULD HAVE ASKED ME.

HECK, I MADE A CAREER OUT OF IT.

WORD OF ADVICE -- DON'T TRY SO HARD.

YOU CAN'T FAIL IF YOU DON'T CARE.

"DON'T TRY"?

WHAT SORT OF BACKWARDS ADVICE IS THAT?

OF COURSE I'M GONNA TRY HARD.

THAT'S HOW ONE EXCELS AND --

SPEAKING OF BACKWARDS...

OH, MY GOSH! I'M DOING IT!

I'M REALLY DOING IT!

[ CHUCKLES ]

LIKE I SAID, DON'T CARE SO MUCH.

USUALLY WHEN SOMEONE WANTS SOMETHING TOO BADLY,

THEY'LL TRIP OVER THEIR OWN FEET.

[ WHISTLING ]

WOW!

[ WHISTLES ]

HUH?

Morro: CAN HE HEAR YOU?

OH, HE CAN HEAR ME.

TELL HIM IT'S TIME TO PAY HIS DEBT.

TELL HIM TO BRING ME THE SWORD.

Misako: THANKS FOR GATHERING ON SHORT NOTICE.

LOOKING FOR SOMETHING?

Ronin: UH, JUST MAKING SURE THE TEA BLENDS

ARE IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER.

UH, YEP.

THERE WE GO -- "A" TO "Z."

SO YOU FIGURE OUT WHERE THE TOMB IS?

NOT YET.

BUT WE THINK WE KNOW HOW TO LOCATE IT.

OH! HEY. [ CHUCKLES ]

ZANE?

[ CLAPS ]

TO BRING YOU UP TO DATE,

THE SKULL SYMBOL REFERS TO THE TOMB'S ENTRANCE.

WE ALSO KNOW MY FATHER'S RESTING SITE,

WHERE THE REALM CRYSTAL RESIDES,

IS PROTECTED BY THREE DEADLY TESTS

DESIGNED TO KEEP ANYONE UNWORTHY AWAY.

AND ONLY THE SWORD OF SANCTUARY CAN SEE PAST ITS RIDDLES.

YEAH, BUT WHERE IS IT?

WE STARTED TO WONDER

IF THE SCROLL AND SWORD COMBINED HELD A SECRET.

THAT'S WHEN KAI REMINDED US

THERE WAS A MAP ON THE BACK OF THE SCROLL.

AND IF YOU USE THE SWORD ON THE MAP,

THE BLADE'S REFLECTION WILL REVEAL THE TOMB'S LOCATION!

EXACTLY.

WHICH MEANS WE'LL HAVE TO GET OUR HANDS ON THAT MAP.

AH!

SOMETHING ABOUT WHAT YOU SAID STUCK WITH ME.

Ronin: OH. YEAH?

A-AND WHAT'S THAT?

THAT YOU DON'T CARE.

IF YOU DON'T, WHY ARE YOU HERE?

SURE, THIS TEA SHOP COULD POTENTIALLY

HELP PAY OFF YOUR DEBT IN TIME,

OR YOU COULD SPEED THINGS UP BY JUST GIVING THEM THE SWORD

IN RETURN FOR YOUR CURSED SOUL.

SO WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE US?

I DON'T NEED THIS SWORD TO TELL ME WHERE THIS IS GOING.

I NEED THAT SWORD.

I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO HURT YOU.

YOU KNOW, I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING!

[ SMOOCHES ]

[ GASPS ]

UGH!

OW! WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THAT?

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WERE ABOUT TO DO.

OH!

LIKE I SAID,

TRY TOO HARD AND YOU'LL TRIP OVER YOURSELF.

HE'S GETTING AWAY WITH THE SWORD!

HUH?

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!

WE CAN DO THIS THE EASY WAY OR THE HARD WAY.

[ LAUGHS ] THAT WAS WAY TO EASY!

OW!

WE'RE NOT GONNA LET YOU GET AWAY.

NOW, THAT'S A NICE BLEND.

WE SHOULD FIGHT MORE OFTEN.

[ WHISTLING ]

HE'S GETTING AWAY!

TO THE BOUNTY!

ARE WE SURE THAT'S THE WISEST CHOICE?

CARE FOR A RIDE?

I THOUGHT YOU'D NEVER ASK.

HE'S FAST.

YOU'RE FASTER.

LET'S GET HIM, BOY. HYAH!

HE'S NOT ABOARD THE SHIP.

IT'S A TRICK.

THEN WHERE DID RONIN GO?

[ WHISTLING ]

[ GASPS ]

STOP!

YEAH, RIGHT!

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

YOU KNOW WHY!

GIVING MORRO THE SWORD

IS THE ONLY THING THAT WILL SAVE ME.

HE'LL NEVER HOLD UP HIS END OF THE BARGAIN.

YOU CAN'T TRUST HIM.

I HAVE TO!

IT'S MY ONLY SHOT!

[ PANTING ]

BECOME THE WATER!

BECOME THE WATER!

BECOME THE WATER!

REVERSE THE FLOW, NYA!

YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.

[ GRUNTING ]

FACE IT, NYA, YOU'RE NOT STRONG ENOUGH.

YOU CARE TOO MUCH!

I'M SORRY, NYA!

[ GROANS ]

I WISH IT NEVER HAD TO COME TO THIS!

[ GRUNTING ]

[ SEAGULLS SQUAWKING ]

Morro: GOOD EVENING.

AND GOOD NIGHT!

HM.

I LIKE WHAT YOU'VE DONE WITH THE PLACE.

PRETTY GUTSY MAKING YOUR HIDEOUT RIGHT HERE IN STIIX.

WITH THIS MUCH WATER, THEY'D NEVER COME LOOKING FOR YOU HERE.

I'VE NEVER BEEN AFRAID OF ANYTHING.

THE SWORD IS NO FAKE.

HUH.

FOR ONCE, THE CROOK MAKES GOOD.

THE TOMB OF THE FIRST SPINJITZU MASTER.

NOW, WHAT ABOUT MY SOUL?

THE DEAL WAS YOU'D REMOVE THE CURSE AND FREE ME.

YOU CAN HAVE YOUR SOUL, BUT THE DEAL HAS CHANGED.

I WANT THE NINJA, TOO.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, NOW, HOLD ON!

A DEAL'S A DEAL.

BUT WHAT DO YOU CARE ABOUT THE NINJA?

I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WEREN'T AFRAID OF THEM.

I'M NOT, BUT OUR PREEMINENT REQUIRES CERTAIN SAFEGUARDS.

[ BOTH LAUGH ]

FORGET IT. I'LL KEEP MY CURSED SOUL.

THE SWORD'S ONE THING, BUT MY FRIENDS ARE ANOTHER.

SINCE WHEN DO YOU HAVE FRIENDS?

[ LAUGHTER ]

WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?

WE STILL HAVE A NEED FOR YOU.

THE REALM CRYSTAL WILL BE MINE!

Jay: WELL, OBVIOUSLY, HE'S TAKEN THE SWORD TO MORRO.

BUT WHERE IS MORRO? HE COULD BE ANYWHERE.

LOOK, NYA, I KNOW YOU'RE NOT A NINJA YET,

BUT IF YOU'RE GONNA BE ONE OF US --

I'M SORRY, I SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU

WHEN I FIRST SUSPECTED RONIN WOULD STEAL IT!

ENOUGH!

WE ALL KNEW THE PATH TO SAVE LLOYD

WAS NEVER GOING TO BE A STRAIGHT LINE.

WE WERE ALL FOOLED BY RONIN.

BUT THAT DOESN'T MAKE US FOOLS.

AT A TIME LIKE THIS, WE MUSTN'T BUTT HEADS.

PUT OUR HEADS TOGETHER.

[ SNICKERING ]

I'M SORRY! YOU SAID "BUTT HEADS!"

[ CHUCKLES ]

[ SQUAWKING ]

I CAN'T TALK LOUD,

BUT I WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW, NYA,

YOU WERE RIGHT.

MORRO DIDN'T HOLD UP HIS END OF THE BARGAIN.

AND MISAKO WAS RIGHT, TOO.

THE SCROLL AND SWORD DID REVEAL THE TOMB.

I KNOW WHERE IT'S LOCATED.

I KNOW YOU DON'T HAVE THE SWORD,

BUT I KNOW YOU CAN BEAT THEM TO THE TOMB.

THEY'RE COMING.

WHERE IS IT? WHERE'S THE TOMB?

THE CAVES OF DESPAIR!

THE TOMB IS IN CAVES OF DESPAIR.

Wu: CAVES OF DESPAIR.

WE'VE BEEN THERE.

I DON'T REMEMBER SEEING ANY TOMB.

BUT THERE'S STILL MILES OF UNEXPLORED MINES.

IT COULD BE THERE.

BUT WHY SHOULD WE BELIEVE HIM? IT COULD BE A TRAP.

WE DON'T HAVE THE SCROLL AND WE DON'T HAVE THE SWORD.

WITH LLOYD'S LIFE AT STAKE, WHAT OTHER CHOICE DO WE HAVE?

WE'RE IN.

FOOL ME ONCE, SHAME ON YOU.

FOOL ME TWICE, SHAME ON ME.

WHAT GOOD WILL IT DO US IF IT'S ALL JUST A SET-UP?

THE NINJA ARE RIGHT.

EVEN A MISSTEP COULD BE A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

WE CANNOT AFFORD TO DO NOTHING. THE NINJA WILL GO.

AS FOR NYA, WELL, YOU'RE STILL NOT READY.

OH!

IT'S A WRAP!

[ LAUGHTER ]

PRETTY GOOD IMPERSONATION.

BUT THEY'LL NEVER BUY IT WAS ME.

WE SHALL SEE.

YOU'RE NO GREEN NINJA.

THE GREEN NINJA WOULD NEVER NEED TO LIE.

OH, YOU WON'T BE THE GREEN NINJA FOR LONG.

SAVE YOUR STRENGTH, 'CAUSE I'LL BE NEEDING IT.

PREPARE FOR A VOYAGE. WE HEAD TO THE TOMB AT DAWN.

WHAT ABOUT RONIN?

LEAVE HIM. HE'S WORTHLESS NOW.

[ BIRD SCREECHES ]

Cole: THE CAVES OF DESPAIR.

THIS IS WHERE WE FIRST CAME FOR THE GOLDEN WEAPONS.

IT'S LIKE EVERYTHING HAS COME FULL CIRCLE.

DON'T SAY THAT.

FULL CIRCLE MEANS IT'S COMING TO AN END.

AND I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THAT

BEFORE I GO INTO THE CAVES OF DESPAIR.

ONE OF MY LEAST FAVORITE WORDS!

HOW DO WE EVEN KNOW THE TOMB IS IN THERE?

SEARCHING FOR CLUES.

Kai: THE THIRD SYMBOL!

GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME. LET'S GO.

[ LAUGHING ]

THERE'S ANOTHER SYMBOL.

IT LOOKS LIKE IT ONLY GETS DARKER THE DEEPER IN WE GO.

THEN IT'S A GOOD THING WE HAVE A LITTLE LIGHT.

WAIT!

WHAT IF THIS IS ONE OF THE TESTS.

YEAH!

SENSEI SAID THE TOMB WAS GONNA BE PROTECTED

BY THREE DEADLY TESTS!

MAYBE IF WE PICK THE WRONG LANTERN...

HA!

NOPE, JUST A LANTERN.

LIKE I THOUGHT -- JUST A LANTERN.

WAIT!

LOOKS LIKE THERE WAS A CAVE-IN.

[ SNIFFS ] UGH! WHAT'S THAT SMELL?

MY SENSES PICK UP TRACES OF KETHANOL,

A HIGHLY FLAMMABLE GAS RELEASED FROM DEEP ORE MINING.

SURE. BET THAT'S WHAT ALL NINDROIDS SAY.

IF YOU'RE IMPLYING THAT SMELL CAME FROM ME...

Kai: LOOK!

SOME OF THESE ROCKS APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN RECENTLY MOVED.

MAYBE MORRO'S ALREADY BEEN THROUGH HERE.

ASH.

EVERYTHING HERE HAS BEEN BURNED.

PERHAPS ONE OF THE TRAPS?

A KETHANOL GEYSER.

WE CANNOT STAY LONG.

IT MAY IGNITE AGAIN AT ANY MOMENT.

LOOK.

WHOA!

EW!

YOU THINK IT'S HIM?

THE FIRST SPINJITZU MASTER.

BUT WHERE'S THE REALM CRYSTAL.

THAT IS NOT THE FIRST SPINJITZU MASTER.

IT'S THE MASTER OF WIND.

THESE ARE THE REMAINS OF MORRO'S MORTAL BODY.

Jay: SENSEI TOLD US

HE NEVER CAME BACK FROM LOOKING FOR THE TOMB.

SO IF HE'S HERE, THAT MEANS...

IT IS TRAP!

NOW YOU SUFFER SAME FATE!

[ COUGHING ]

THERE'S NO WAY OUT!

IF THIS WAS A TEST, I THINK WE CERTAINLY FAILED IT.

[ COUGHING ]

AND ALL THIS GAS IS MAKING ME A LITTLE...

LIGHTHEADED.

THE CAVERN'S A VIRTUAL OVEN.

IF THOSE GEYSERS DECIDE TO IGNITE, WE'LL BE COOKED.

Zane: PIXAL HAS LOCATED AN OPENING.

THE CAVE-IN MUST HAVE CREATED A GAP.

BUT A GAP TO WHERE?

FOR ALL WE KNOW, IT COULD BE A DEAD END, AND FOR THE RECORD,

THAT'S ANOTHER ONE OF MY LEAST FAVORITE WORDS --

DEAD END!

TOO LATE!

COLE!

NO!

HUH. SOLVED THAT PROBLEM.

CORRECTION, YOU MADE IT WORSE.

NOW THE PRESSURE WILL COMPACT THE EXPLOSION,

MULTIPLYING THE DAMAGE TENFOLD.

OH, WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY?

WHEN THAT ROCK GOES, EVERY CAVE IN A 10-MILE RADIUS

WILL BE FILLED WITH A WALL OF FIRE SO HOT

IT WILL INCINERATE EVERYTHING IN ITS PATH.

I GUESS WE BETTER GET HOT ON OUR HEELS.

CYCLON-DO!

HURRY!

GO, GO, GO!

GREAT!

NOW WHAT? HOW DO I STOP THIS THING?

[ NINJA SCREAMING ]

OBSTACLE!

ALMOST GOT YA! AAH!

HOLD ON, JAY!

[ HUMMING ]

[ GASPS ]

I CAUGHT IT, GUYS! I CAUGHT IT!

LOOKS LIKE WE'RE COMING TO A DEAD END!

OH, THERE'S THAT WORD AGAIN!

NEVER SAY THAT WORD!

AAH! WHAT DO WE DO? WHAT DO WE DO?

USE THE AEROBLADES FOR BRAKES.

IT ALMOST FEELS LIKE WE'RE...

GOING FASTER!

WHOA!WHOA! WHOA!WHOA!

[ NINJA SCREAMING ]

[ SCREAMING CONTINUES IN SLOW MOTION ]

[ LAUGHS ] I COULD KISS RONIN!

AFTER I CLOBBER HIM FOR GETTING US INTO THIS MESS!

[ CHUCKLES ] OH. AUTOPILOT!

OF COURSE, HE'S TOO SCARED TO SHOW HIS FACE.

Ronin: HEY, NINJA.

IF YOU'RE GETTING THIS MESSAGE,

I'M SURE YOU MIGHT HAVE SOME CHOICE WORDS FOR ME.

[ LAUGHS ] YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!

BUT I WANTED TO TELL YOU

THAT WASN'T ME WHO SENT YOU TO THIS TRAP.

I WAS UNDER THE CONTROL OF MORRO.

I KNOW YOU THINK I'M A CROOK BY TAKING THE SWORD,

AND I WANT TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT BY OFFERING MY AIRSHIP, R.E.X.,

AS A PEACE OFFERING.

I KNOW IT'S NOT WHAT YOU HAD IN MIND,

BUT I'VE REMOTELY ENTERED THE LOCATION OF THE TOMB --

THE REAL ONE THIS TIME.

Kai: LOOK AT THAT.

THE REASON MISAKO NEVER FOUND THE TOMB IN NINJAGO

IS BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE.

IT'S UNDER THE OCEAN.

MORRO HAS A HEAD START,

BUT R.E.X. SHOULD GET YOU STRAIGHT THERE IN A JIFF.

AND IF IT'S ANY CONSOLATION,

THIS WILL BE THE LAST YOU SEE OF ME.

IF NYA WANTS TO KNOW A REASON, TELL HER IT'S...

IT'S BECAUSE I CARE.

HEY, GOOD LUCK. AND GO MAKE THINGS RIGHT.

LOOKS LIKE WE'RE HEADED TO THE TOMB.

TIME TO BUCKLE UP.
