Who am I chasing?

'He or she is not in our database.'

[Lloyd] 'Whoever they are, they're good. I need back up.'

[P.I.X.A.L.] 'All of the others are on active missions throughout Ninjago.'

It's time to get the team back.

[male narrator] Episode 75, "The Mask of Deception."

[instrumental music]

[grunts] The sun is blistering.

- Faster! - You heard your master.

Work!

phat

You there! Peasant! Bring me water.

You hear me?

Bring me some water!

Thirsty?

[gasps] It's..

The Master of Water. Nya!

I don't care. Get her!

[grunting]

Still thirsty?

[screaming]

Cole, you're my friend, but right now

you're my worst enemy.

You have no idea how time travel works.

If someone goes back in time and alters the past

our reality, as we know it would change.

We could look totally different and not even know it.

But we don't.

Thus, Master Wu must have slipped into a time stream

into the future.

Whenever he is, it's been a year.

It's time we find him.

Uh, hi. Sorry to bother you. Cole, Master of Earth.

Uh, this is Jay, master of blabber.

Lighting!

We heard that an old man who lost his memory

wandered in from the cold, about so high

long beard and drinks a lot of tea.

I told you not to introduce yourself as the Master of Earth.

No one knows what that means.

No, you, bolt head. Everyone here took a vow of silence.

Can you point us to him?

Thank you. I-I like your place.

Wait, if it's him and he lost his memory

don't remind him of that stupid TV show I once hosted, okay?

Uh, Master Wu..

Oh, come on! We came all this way and it's not him?

Ah! That-that's it. I quit!

I'm tired of losing people in my life.

Wu would never quit on us and we're not quitting on him.

If he's really still out there, couldn't he

at least send a letter from the future?

Or leave a message to stand the test of time?

He's wise. He'd find a way.

We just have to keep looking.

Yeah, you do that and while you're at it

I'll be doing something more useful, like being a ninja.

Ha! Some ninja you are. You talk more than you fight.

At least, I'm entertaining, all you do

is judge and act like you know everythin--

[yelling] Would you stop fighting?

Way to break your vow.

- Huh! Oh, no! I spoke too. - Uh, ha!

I knew you didn't have it in you.

I've been holding this in

but I just wanna say, I hate doing your dishes.

Well, if everyone's doin' it, I'm doin' it too.

[beeping]

Uh-oh! That's our cue. Gotta run.

[blizzard blowing]

[P.I.X.A.L.] 'Zane, Master Lloyd requires Kai'

'and your attention in Ninjago City.'

- Is it serious? - 'It appears so.'

'Did I catch you at a bad time?'

Zane, a little help?

Calling off the press

the Mechanic is back, Ninjago.

[zapping]

[instrumental music]

Ah, whoever said, "Fight fire with fire"

didn't know what they were talkin' about.

- We will be there shortly. - Watch out for the cross fire.

Hey, you're stealing my lines.

[thudding]

[The Mechanic screams]

Who likes ice cream? I do!

How was that for a last line, Kai? Can we leave now?

Needs a little work.

You gotta have to give me a minute to thaw though.

[instrumental music]

[laughter]

Hey, there he is. You're late.

Kai was late too, if it is any consolation.

Thanks for meeting me here.

It's been a while since we've all been under one roof.

[laughs]

What?

Are we gonna talk about it?

Talk about what?

- Your voice, it's.. - Lower.

Sounds like our little ninja's growin' up.

Leave him alone.

[sighs] Any word from your mother?

Not since she went searching for Master Wu.

- I don't know where she is. - She'll come back, Lloyd.

And, so will Wu.

Not everyone comes back, Cole.

But that isn't why I called you here.

I called you because of this.

[beeping]

Your father, Lord Garmadon?

After poking around, I've learned it's the symbol to--

The Sons of Garmadon.

The mysterious criminal syndicate

'growing to prominence in Ninjago city.'

Seventy-two hours ago, they stole a powerful relic

from Cyrus Borg.

- Some mask-- - Not some mask.

The Oni Mask.

There are only three in existence.

Whoa! I'm confused.

How can there be three masks

when you just said it's the only mask?

Not only, Jay. "Oni!"

The Oni are said to be all-powerful beings.

Demon that predate Ninjago.

Each mask embodies one of the three Oni warlords.

If all three masks are united, whomever owns them

will wield tremendous power.

Ninja, this is Mr. Hutchins.

Master at arms and counsel to the Royal Family.

- I've asked him here. - The Royal Family.

Apologies, if you aren't familiar.

They honor their privacy

as they do the safety of Ninjago.

Let me guess, they have an Oni Mask too?

Two? Now, there's two?

The Emperor will be delivering a public speech tomorrow

and I'm worried the Sons of Garmadon

may try to steal the mask.

We could use your assistance

that is if you can keep a low profile.

We're ninja. No one will know we're there.

Just let us know where and when.

[instrumental music]

[Emperor] 'As many of you know, my family has kept a private life.'

'We aren't interested in meddling with current affairs.'

'But as crime has risen, so has our concern.'

'So, it is time to step out of the shadows'

and into the light.

[crowd cheering]

I don't like this one bit.

The Royal Family likes their privacy

why give such a public speech?

I think it's nice. They're reaching out to the people.

Why all the hate, sis? You just don't like getting gussied up.

[Nya] 'All that gold and glitter is for show.'

'The Royal Family are figure heads.'

'They don't have any real power.'

'What purpose do they have?'

Their purpose is to be protected

as do all our traditions.

I believe Master Lloyd has spotted something of interest.

[instrumental music]

[Zane] 'Looks like he's got an eye for the princess.'

[Kai] I guess, green is her favorite color.

You do know I can hear you, right?

- 'We must..' - The Emperor's almost finished.

Let's just do our job.

...and always stay united.

[crowd cheering]

Be on the lookout.

[cameras clicking]

I see--

[crackers bursting]

[crowd screaming]

Is the threat clear?

[fireworks crackling]

Huh! Firecrackers! False alarm.

[crowd cheering]

Huh, you protected the Royal Family.

You have their gratitude.

You're invited to be their guests in the palace.

Huh, no one ever gets invited into the palace.

Are you sure they meant us?

It's just a palace. You've seen one, you've seen 'em all.

We'd be honored.

[instrumental music]

Welcome to the Royal Place

also known as the "Palace of Secrets."

Ooh, why do they call it the Palace of Secrets?

Ah, if I were to tell you that

then it wouldn't be a secret now, would it?

[indistinct chatter]

Look at that.

I already feel royal.

It's beautiful.

Yeah. I could really get used to living in a place like this.

Well, don't. We're only here as guests.

Then, back to protecting Ninjago.

Hmph, too much gold in my opinion.

I present to you the exalted Emperor and Empress of Ninjago.

And their daughter

the jade princess

'Princess Harumi.'

We're honored by your presence.

The honor is all ours.

I have read much about you.

Your heroics will surely become legend.

Kai, the hot-head who acts without question.

Cole, the rock and foundation of the team.

Jay, the joker whose mouth is as fast as lightning.

Zane, the cold and calculating android.

Nindroid, your highness.

And, Nya, the girl.

The girl I've wanted to be

ever since I first heard about her.

With her mastery of water and her skill

that could rival any master.

I like her.

And Master Lloyd, the green ninja.

'The youngest, but most powerful protector.'

The chosen one.

I too have lost my parents.

'But we're both not without family.'

We adopted Harumi and raised her as our own..

...when her parents passed away.

Thank you for inviting us into your home.

It wasn't us. It was our daughter.

And she would like you to stay with us

until the threat to our throne is over.

These are troubling times.

'And as long as we have an Oni Mask'

we fear our lives are in jeopardy.

The masks must never be reunited.

Please, say yes.

Then you have our help.

Great, then Mr. Hutchins can show you the palace.

Yes!

While you're in our service you have full access

to the complementary royal buffet.

Anything you want is at your disposal.

Exotic fruits, assorted vegetables

scones, and all you can eat cake.

Ah, thank you, but I gave up sweets.

My body is a temple.

Ever since Master Wu went missing

Cole has been a real party-pooper.

"Party-pooper?"

I'll explain later.

The palace is equipped with secret passages

to get anywhere fast.

Ah, so that's why they call it the Palace of Secrets.

Yes, but as to the locations of the secret passages

only the Royal Family knows.

Sure, you mean, like, right here?

- Nope. - Or here?

- Not there. - 'Or right here?'

- No. - Then, how about here?

- Here? Or Here? - 'No. Nope!'

- Ah, here, or this way. - No. Nope.

- 'Here?' - Wrong.

- This gotta be it. - Wrong again.

This is a big one.

- 'Here?' - No.

Ah, ha, ha. We'll clean up after ourselves.

[instrumental music]

Anyone else think there's something

a little off about this guy?

He's holding something back.

And finally, the reason for your protection.

The Mask of Deception!

[intense music]

Ugh, a face only a mother could love.

Why would anyone want that?

That's up to us to figure out.

Just being in the same room with it gives me the heebie-jeebies.

If this is the Mask of Deception

what was stolen from Borg Industries?

The Mask of Vengeance.

And who has the third one?

No one knows the location of the Mask of Hatred.

But my sensors tell me it won't be lost for long.

Zane is correct.

'Though no one has found the third mask'

'it has given the Royal Family a little resolve.'

[instrumental music]

But we know dark forces are looking to acquire it.

And that's why we need eyes on it at all times.

Don't worry, we're ninja.

We're experts at this kind of thing.

[instrumental music]

All clear.

You too. Wait! Look.

[tile clattering]

Who's watching who?

Ah! Mm!

Are you sure you don't want any?

This cake is delicious.

Eh, my body is a temple.

[chomping] Mm.

Well, the buffet is clear of any threats.

And, they're out of bologna.

Can we discuss now, what is a "Party-pooper?"

[sighs] Jay's upset I'm the responsible one.

With Master Wu gone, someone has to keep us in check.

In that case, you are correct.

You are responsible.

It is nice to have a pooper at the party.

[laughing]

So, you're the Mask of Deception.

[glass shattering]

Princess?

Princess Harumi?

Are you there?

[eerie music]
